0:15two years now since the start of my
0:17business I have been documenting my
0:19journey with you guys here on my YouTube

0:22behind the scenes of what it's like to
0:24own a small business I've also shared a
0:25bunch of educational content as well a
0:27lot of tutorials and how-tos including
0:30video on how to start your very own
0:31business but today I want to share with
0:33you guys my personal story and what led
0:35up to the birth of my business and how I
0:37quit my 9 to5 and completely transformed
0:39my life I don't know why it's taking me
0:41this long to share my story um it is
0:43pretty personal and I have a hard time
0:45opening up to people and I also don't
0:47want to bore you guys but I mean if this
0:49can help at least one person out there
0:51change their life then I feel like it's
0:53worth it especially if you're a
0:54self-doubting person who doesn't believe
0:56that they can do this I really want this
0:58to be an inspiration from you and hope
1:00help you start achieving your dream life
1:01so if you want to hear the story of how
1:03I went from cleaning up feces from
1:05behinds for minimum wage to working for
1:08myself making thousands of dollars a
1:10month owning my own business stick
1:13around so for a little bit of context
1:15and background growing up and throughout
1:17High School I never really had any
1:18special skills or talents per se I would
1:21say I did okay in high school I wasn't
1:23like an A+ student or anything like that
1:24but I did okay and I knew that I didn't
1:27really want to pursue School Long Term
1:29but I did did go to college because that
1:31was like the normal thing to do and
1:33because I didn't have anything going on
1:34I didn't know what I wanted to do or
1:35what my future looked like college was
1:37kind of like a placeholder for me until
1:39I figured it out and while I was going
1:41to school mind you I literally only went
1:42to college for like a semester before I
1:44dropped out I was working a job on the
1:46side as well I was a chess teacher to
1:48kids before I dropped out I was trying
1:50to study Kinesiology um and I had to
1:53take a bunch of unnecessary classes in
1:55my opinion like sociology and English
1:57and things like that ultimately I
1:59decided that the college life was not
2:01for me I am not the student type
2:03whatsoever I cannot just sit in a class
2:06and listen to things that I don't care
2:07about for hours at a time so I did
2:10decide to drop out I knew if I wasn't
2:12going to go to school I at least had to
2:14work full-time so I decided to get a
2:16second job at Chipotle and that job only
2:18lasted me about 2 months before I quit
2:20because it was just not a good time at
2:23all um anyone working in retail or
2:25customer service I really feel for you
2:27these people can be ruthless so on to
2:29the next I then got a job working as a
2:31caregiver in a nursing facility so this
2:34is the job that I had that I was
2:35cleaning up feces and stuff like that
2:37we'll get to that in just a minute but I
2:38really want to talk about how impactful
2:40this job was for me and why I stayed at
2:43this job for about a year despite the
2:45tasks required if you will so at this
2:48facility that I worked at there was four
2:49different floors of housing for the
2:51residents and each different floor
2:53represented a different level of care
2:55that the residents needed so level one
2:58and level two were full of residents
2:59that were still cognitively there but
3:01may need help with basic things in their
3:03life level three and level four required
3:05more care and had residents that had
3:07things like Dementia or Alzheimer's but
3:09I worked on the first two levels so I
3:11had a handful of residents that were
3:12assigned to me that I would care for um
3:15and it would be things like maybe
3:16picking out their clothes helping them
3:18get dressed helping them you know maybe
3:20rub lotion on their legs if they can't
3:22bend down um of course these are seniors
3:24so they do need some extra help
3:26sometimes now the thing that wasn't
3:27directly in the job description was
3:29cleaning up feces from the reinds if
3:32they needed some assistance doing that
3:34because some seniors you know obviously
3:36lose that ability um or some of them are
3:40you know handicapped or disabled and so
3:42they just need a little extra help and a
3:45lot of people would argue that you need
3:46to be a CNA for that which is a
3:48certified nurse assistant and get paid
3:50like one which I agree to that because
3:52it is a lot more in depth and you may
3:55think Looking Back Now I definitely
3:57don't regret the job at all um because
3:59it taught me a lot but I do feel that it
4:02was not what should have been paid for
4:04the tasks at hand if that makes sense
4:06but that's neither here nor there and
4:08I'm just grateful that I got the
4:09experience that I did and that I met
4:11some of the people that I did um because
4:13that was kind of the start of my
4:14Awakening to a new life so first and
4:17foremost I want to talk about the lovely
4:19woman who trained me for my position um
4:22we'll call her Sheila for video purposes
4:25Sheila was in her 50s at the time that I
4:27started working there and I was around
4:2819 um and she was definitely like an ant
4:31figure for me she was very caring
4:33supportive she was really really sweet I
4:35liked her a lot and prior to me working
4:37there she had already been with the
4:38company for around 10 years so she was
4:40doing this for a long time she had
4:42really great work ethic she never did
4:44her job half ass she was just a really
4:46good leader and we built a really good
4:48relationship throughout my time there
4:50but we'll come back to her in a minute
4:52this next person was super impactful for
4:54me as well his name was Ron and he was
4:56one of the residents there and we built
4:57a really good friendship Ron was getting
4:59a little bit older he needed a walker to
5:01walk he couldn't really you know bend
5:03down or move as easily as he once could
5:05so he needed some help in his daily life
5:07that's where I stepped in because Ron
5:09was one of the residents that was
5:10assigned to me and so I was responsible
5:12for his care he didn't need anything too
5:14extreme so I'll kind of walk you through
5:15what it looked like to care for Ron and
5:17you're probably wondering how the heck
5:18is this relevant I promise you it is so
5:20just hear me out Ron had a love for
5:22music and he would always share some of
5:24his favorite songs for me from his time
5:26so every morning I would go in and he
5:27would have a song playing for me on his
5:29cassette player on his nightstand and he
5:30would tell me like a story about the
5:32song and why it was one of his favorites
5:34and after that I would always start the
5:36shower for him and while he was taking
5:37his shower I would go and make his bed
5:39take out the trash and clean up around
5:41his room and he had a skin condition on
5:43his ankles I'm not sure exactly what it
5:45was but he always needed help to apply
5:47this cream every day because he couldn't
5:48reach down so I would help him apply
5:50that cream to his ankles after he got
5:52out of the shower so that was our daily
5:53routine he was a really easy resident to
5:55care for and we built a really good
5:56friendship Ron was an entrepreneur I
5:58knew this about him him he had told me
6:00about his business that he started and
6:01how he passed it on to his kids mind you
6:04this was a very expensive facility to
6:06live at you guys I think that average
6:07rent was about $6,000 and that depends
6:10on the type of care that you need and
6:11how much care you need so it was not
6:13cheap especially for 2019 so Ron was
6:16very wealthy and successful like I said
6:17he had shared this with me about his
6:19business and things like that so I had
6:20already knew but it didn't really hit me
6:23until I saw something one day when I was
6:25cleaning up his trash so Ron had a desk
6:27right next to his trash and on this desk
6:29he would work and keep you know
6:30different mail and letters and things
6:32like that on there just like some
6:33clutter there were a couple pieces of
6:35paper that were crumbled up right next
6:36to the trash which I'm assuming he just
6:38missed throwing them from the desk I
6:40don't know and as I was picking them up
6:41there was another paper that wasn't
6:43crumbled up underneath the desk assuming
6:45that this one wasn't meant for the trash
6:46I just picked it up and put it back on
6:48the desk but I got a glimpse of it
6:50before that and I wasn't trying to Snoop
6:52but like it completely caught my eye
6:53because it was something I had never
6:54seen before and it was basically like I
6:57don't know if it was like a statement
6:59for a bank or a trust or something like
7:01that but long story short it had
7:04literally like over a million dollars in
7:06there you guys and it just completely
7:08blew my mind and at that point it just
7:10kind of hit me like oh shoot like Snap
7:12you know this guy's a millionaire and
7:14that was that I put the paperback I
7:16didn't say anything about it but it
7:18really really stuck with me and it made
7:20me come to this realization and it
7:22really changed my perspective on life
7:24and I know this perspective might sound
7:26like messed up and I really don't intend
7:28it to be that way but this is just the
7:29honest truth you guys I asked myself a
7:31very serious question and it went like
7:33this do I want to be like Sheila who has
7:36been working for this company trying to
7:37climb the ladder for the last 10 years
7:40or do I want to be like Ron and be the
7:42head of the company instead and it was
7:44that question that was truly the start
7:46of an Awakening for me but it was just
7:47the start and I wasn't planning on
7:49acting on it anytime soon so I ended up
7:51working there until January 2020 and
7:53that's when I decided to quit because it
7:55was no longer making me happy mind you
7:57guys the entire time that I had been
7:59working at the nursing facility I was
8:00working a second job as well so my days
8:02were super long I would clock in to the
8:05nursing facility at 6:00 a.m. clock out
8:07at 2:00 p.m. full-time job and then I
8:10would go straight after to a school to
8:11teach test to kids for another 2 hours
8:13and it was sometimes longer depending on
8:15what school I was at that day but
8:17anyways I had quit that job and then not
8:19even a month and a half later the whole
8:22Panera canora I I don't know if I'm
8:25allowed to say it on here but the whole
8:27Panorama happened and everything got
8:30shut down and so throughout that whole
8:31thing I didn't have a job of course no
8:33one else really did either everything
8:34was shut down so fast forward to when it
8:36was time to finally go back to work and
8:39start looking into getting another job I
8:41want to say I was around 21 at this
8:42point because I had decided that I
8:44wanted to move out without having a
8:45steady job go figure but anyways I
8:48started doing Amazon Flex which was
8:50basically like a delivery job where I
8:51would deliver Whole Foods groceries to
8:53people's houses I had money saved up so
8:56I did move out at that point and I was
8:57doing Amazon Flex on and off off it was
8:59kind of like you pick your own schedule
9:01if there's anything available and so the
9:03slots that you would pick up there were
9:05called blocks and they were hardly ever
9:07available cuz it was a super popular job
9:09you basically like got paid a flat rate
9:11and on top of that you got 100% of the
9:13tips that customers would give you so it
9:15was a pretty popular job and it wasn't
9:17like full-time or anything by any means
9:19and so it was almost impossible for this
9:21job to be full-time and I didn't have
9:22another job on the side or anything like
9:24that so I spent a lot of time at home
9:26and I fell into a huge depression I
9:29would literally just spend all day in
9:31bed sometimes just crying um not knowing
9:34what to do with myself I felt like I had
9:37no purpose nothing was bringing me joy
9:40there was nothing that I enjoyed doing
9:41like there was no dream job or anything
9:44like that and I just felt so lost and I
9:47completely dreaded the fact of going
9:49back to work especially working two jobs
9:51previously like there was no way that I
9:53could get myself to do that again and I
9:55dug myself into an even deeper hole by
9:57moving out and now I have all these
9:58other bills to pay and stuff so it was
10:00just a really difficult time in my life
10:03but despite that really stupid decision
10:05of not being like financially secure
10:07before deciding to move out I don't
10:10regret it at all because it taught me so
10:12much it taught me that I can be
10:13depressed all I want I can cry all I
10:15want I can throw myself a pity party all
10:18I want but there is no one coming to
10:20save me at that point I was an adult and
10:22I was responsible for myself and my
10:24decisions and obviously I was making
10:25some poor ones and more than anything I
10:27was just so sick of of being depressed
10:30and I really wanted something to be
10:32passionate about I wanted something to
10:33look forward to I'd never had that kind
10:35of excitement in my life and the thing
10:37is it's not even that I didn't want to
10:39work it's that I didn't want to do
10:41meaningless work and then it finally hit
10:44me one day I was scrolling on Tik Tok
10:46and I saw this girl who is making
10:48embroidered sweatshirts and if there's
10:50one thing about me it's that I love a
10:53good cute comfy sweatshirt I live in
10:56sweatshirts every single day of my life
10:58and so the little light bulb went off of
10:59my head like oh my God this is it this
11:02this is what I meant to do in life I
11:04love sweatshirts I'm passionate about it
11:07I would love to create my own
11:08embroidered sweatshirts and at this
11:10point I was still living in my apartment
11:12and so there was no way that I was going
11:13to be able to afford all the stuff to
11:15start this business while still living
11:16here and paying all these different
11:18bills but as soon as I saw those videos
11:20on Tik Tok I could not shake the feeling
11:21that this is something that I really
11:23wanted to pursue rent was my biggest
11:25expense at the time and I didn't even
11:26like the apartment complex that I was
11:28living at I didn't get along with my
11:29neighbors cuz they were really loud and
11:31Rowdy the parking situation was a
11:33nightmare and overall I was just so
11:35unhappy there the environment of this
11:37apartment complex was very hostile the
11:39manager wasn't the best and so a lot of
11:40the residents there were not happy
11:42either and for some time I had debated
11:44moving back home but I was honestly
11:45embarrassed to like kind of move back
11:48after being on my own for a little while
11:49I felt like not a real adult if that
11:51makes sense looking back I was so
11:53foolish and I feel ashamed for thinking
11:55that way because I am so incredibly
11:57blessed to have the support of my family
11:58that would take me me back in in a
11:59heartbeat so if there's anyone watching
12:01who's struggling and they're letting
12:03their pride get in the way of moving
12:04back home please don't be foolish
12:07especially if you have a loving and
12:08supporting family please move back home
12:10I promise you there is no shame in that
12:12whatsoever and if anyone has anything
12:14negative to say about it it's because
12:16they're jealous of you or they don't
12:17have a supportive family themselves so I
12:19did end up moving back home now mind you
12:21I still had rent to pay and other bills
12:24but of course it was much less than what
12:25I was paying living at the apartment so
12:27once I moved back home I literally just
12:29had like a screw it moment and I was
12:30like you know what if worse comes to
12:32worse I could literally just go out and
12:34find a job anywhere any day of the week
12:36and make money there if this doesn't
12:38work out but I'm going to give it a try
12:40first I decided to give this my all you
12:43guys I did not get another job I put all
12:44of my time and energy into pursuing this
12:47fulltime and I was still living off of
12:49the savings that I had left I was trying
12:51to stretch it out as much as possible to
12:53avoid going back to a job and I want to
12:55disclaim that while that did work out
12:56for me I don't recommend doing that
12:58without a safety net and I knew I had
12:59the support of my family in case
13:01anything should ever happen and I would
13:03always be able to just go get another
13:04job but everyone's situation is
13:06different so please be responsible and
13:07this is not me giving anyone advice this
13:09is me simply sharing my story so my
13:11journey began and I started researching
13:13day and night you guys when I tell you I
13:16was literally on the computer all day I
13:18mean all day and I have a very fixating
13:21personality so when I decide I want to
13:23do something or I want to learn
13:24something I do not stop and I do truly
13:27believe that that played a huge role in
13:29my success is that I was so persistent I
13:32could not give up and I also want to say
13:34you guys that going into this I truly
13:37wasn't doing it for the money I can say
13:39that wholeheartedly and yes of course
13:41the long-term goal was to be able to do
13:43this fulltime and make a living off of
13:45it but at first I truthfully just wanted
13:47to be passionate about something and do
13:49work that made me happy and that's the
13:51reason I chose embroidery because I knew
13:52I was passionate about sweatshirts and
13:54even if it didn't work out I could
13:56always make my own sweatshirts right
13:57from home and after a ton of research I
14:00finally took the plunge and purchased
14:01all the supplies that I needed to start
14:03the business and started setting up a
14:04website and it was really scary you guys
14:06all this business stuff is pretty
14:08intimidating when you're first starting
14:09and you have no experience or no
14:11knowledge where to even begin but I kept
14:13calm and I kept telling myself that the
14:15most important thing is to just get
14:16started and that I would figure
14:17everything else along the way so while I
14:19was practicing embroidery and getting
14:21everything ready to start the business I
14:22started documenting my journey I didn't
14:24even know what to post to be honest with
14:26you I had no idea how to Market or how
14:28to reach my target audience but I just
14:29started sharing videos either way so I
14:31was posting consistently and kind of
14:33just showing the behind the scenes and
14:34the whole setup process and when I was
14:36finally ready to launch my business I
14:37got my first order a week later and I
14:39believe that first month of my business
14:41I think I got a total of like 10 orders
14:43give or take which I thought was so
14:45great for my first month in business so
14:47I had launched in October and the first
14:49couple months of my business were pretty
14:50slow which is to be expected I was
14:53averaging from like 5 to 13 orders a
14:55month I think one month I even hit like
14:57a little bit over 25 give or take and
15:00again throughout this whole time I am
15:01documenting my journey on Tik Tok and
15:03Instagram I started my YouTube channel
15:05in December and again I just really
15:07enjoyed sharing my experience finding
15:09community and also helping people along
15:11the way especially on my YouTube channel
15:13where I started creating my tutorials
15:14and hacks and all that good stuff and
15:16you guys I was barely keeping a float
15:18every single penny I made went right
15:20back into the business I did not profit
15:22anything for the first couple months I
15:24started expanding into other products
15:26like cups and scrunchies and things like
15:27that just kind of finding what worked or
15:30what I enjoyed doing and you guys
15:31throughout the whole time since I first
15:33started the business I have been the
15:34happiest I've been in my entire life
15:37even though I wasn't making a livable
15:39wage again it wasn't about the money for
15:41me I was truly so happy and that's not
15:43to say that I wasn't constantly checking
15:45my bank account or being worried about
15:47staying afloat for the next couple
15:48months or however long it would take but
15:50overall it was so worth it to me because
15:52I was finally passionate about something
15:54and I just had to trust deep down that
15:56everything was going to work out and I
15:58just kept that in my mind constantly and
16:00I worked so hard you guys I took it very
16:02seriously not just my business but I
16:04also got into content creation and I
16:06started taking YouTube seriously as well
16:08and I started getting some traction on
16:10my social medias I grew a little bit of
16:11a following and of course there is a
16:13downside to that as well there was a lot
16:15of hate coming my way but at this point
16:17you guys there was nothing that anyone
16:19could say that could stop my grind the
16:21more I kept telling myself that it was
16:22going to work out the more I started to
16:24believe it and no one was going to get
16:25in the way of that so for 8 months
16:27straight I worked so hard I was super
16:30consistent I think throughout that whole
16:32time I only missed maybe a total of 10
16:34days that I didn't post on social media
16:36but I was so consistent and on top of it
16:39and all of that hard work paid off
16:41because 8 months later I finally got my
16:43big break I got my first viral moment on
16:45Tik Tok I had a video that hit over like
16:4711 million views and then on YouTube as
16:50well and the orders just started
16:52flooding in it was such a surreal moment
16:54it was everything I had ever seen and it
16:56was finally happening to me the Shopify
16:58d just kept going off on my phone it was
17:00so awesome and ever since that moment my
17:03life was forever changed it took one
17:05video to completely turn my life around
17:07and really quickly I just want to say
17:09that I wasn't working so hard to get a
17:11viral moment that wasn't my intention
17:13because just as quickly as you can get a
17:15viral moment you can get a dry spell as
17:17well so you shouldn't count on that but
17:18I did work hard so it could finally pay
17:20off and give me the motivation to keep
17:22going and I'm not one to talk about
17:24numbers you guys know I've never been
17:25one to boast or you know brag or talk
17:28about profits or anything like that but
17:30I do just want to say this to give
17:31someone the hope to keep going I was
17:33making anywhere from maybe $200 to Max
17:37maybe 900 I really couldn't tell you but
17:39it wasn't that much it was definitely
17:41not livable and I remember so vividly
17:44just a little bit before I went viral I
17:46checked my bank account and I was down
17:48to my last like
17:49$11,200 around there mind you I still
17:52had rent and expenses to pay I was
17:53barely keeping a flow and everything I
17:55was making went right back into the
17:56business and again just to disclaim I
17:58probably won't ever talk about something
18:00like this ever again I don't think you
18:01should be discussing your finances to
18:03the internet and that's a different
18:04topic for a different video but the
18:06month that I went viral I ended up
18:08making over
18:09$115,000 just in that month alone and it
18:12was so surreal because of course I had
18:14never made or even saved up that kind of
18:16money in my life and it truly was like
18:19that oh Moment Like This is
18:21actually happening holy crap and of
18:23course I knew if I kept working hard and
18:24stay consistent something like this
18:26would end up happening but when it
18:28actually happens you guys it's a feeling
18:29that you just can't describe knowing
18:31that you work so hard for that moment
18:33not to mention at the start of the month
18:35that I went viral I had less than 6,000
18:37subscribers and at the end of the month
18:39that I went viral I ended up with over
18:40100,000 subscribers so things started
18:43happening so fast after that month and
18:45it was no time to relax I started
18:46working even harder and the rest is
18:49history I am finally living my dream as
18:51a full-time profitable small business
18:53owner and content creator I've always
18:55wanted to talk about this with you guys
18:56but I know it can kind of be like
18:58controversial with different beliefs and
18:59things like that but one of the things
19:01that I truly feel that helped me the
19:03most was manifestation I learned that
19:06energy is a very sacred thing and
19:08whatever you focus on becomes your
19:10reality on top of this the last two
19:12years that I've had my business I focus
19:14so much on raising my vibrations and
19:16leveling up and becoming my best higher
19:19self I want to share with you some
19:20examples of things I have manifested
19:22because once you get on that frequency
19:24you guys you can have anything you want
19:26in life as long as you truly believe it
19:28I man ested a lot the last two years
19:30that I've owned a business but there are
19:31two things that really stick out to me
19:33that I want to share with you the first
19:35thing that I think I have ever
19:36manifested was at the start of my
19:38business I bought a brand new iMac
19:40computer I opened up a Best Buy credit
19:42card to be able to buy it because I
19:44didn't have the money at the time and
19:45this credit card offered 12 months with
19:47no interest so I told myself I was going
19:49to make the minimum payments for a whole
19:51year until the deadline ended and then I
19:53was going to pay off the rest in full
19:55and sure enough a year went by and I
19:57still owed over ,000
19:59on that computer and I paid it off in
20:01full the day of the deadline so that one
20:03was pretty mild and you may just be
20:04thinking okay that's a coincidence a
20:06year went by like you hit your goal it's
20:07not necessarily manifesting okay so
20:10check out this next one so this is
20:12something that happened to me recently
20:13actually and it is absolutely
20:14mind-blowing I have to share with you
20:16guys so last year 2024 around August I
20:19want to say I found what I thought was
20:21my dream car it was brand new at 2024 it
20:24was absolutely beautiful and I had set a
20:26goal for myself that I was going to make
20:28enough money to pay that car off in cash
20:30and buy it for my birthday this year I
20:32had my heart set on this goal for you
20:34guys and I told myself okay I'm going to
20:35Manifest this for myself I'm going to
20:37get my dream card for my birthday I'm
20:38going to pay it off in cash again this
20:41was in August of 2024 so time passes
20:43it's around Christmas time now and one
20:45day I decided that I wanted to read a
20:47book I don't know what drew me to this
20:50book in particular the universe works in
20:52crazy ways but anyways I decided to read
20:54Rich Dad Poor Dad which if you haven't
20:56read it yet and you want to be an
20:57entrepreneur you need to read that book
20:59the gist of this book is basically how
21:01to grow your wealth and become
21:02financially free but what really stood
21:04out to me was the difference between
21:06assets and liabilities I don't want to
21:08get too much into it so I'll just cut to
21:10the chase under the liabilities tab it
21:12said brand new cars are liabilities
21:14because they're not generating any
21:15income it also talks about how buying a
21:17brand new car is essentially to feed
21:19your ego and greed and how wealthy
21:21people would never invest in a car and
21:23instead put that money in a generating
21:24income source and so long story short it
21:27made me change my decision and decided
21:28to buy a 20-year-old car that was
21:30affordable and reliable this was
21:32essentially a Christmas gift to myself
21:34but I actually did need a car to haul
21:35all my dogs around so fast forward to
21:37now February 2025 my birthday is next
21:40week on March 7th and I just landed a
21:43sponsorship deal that paid me the same
21:45exact amount that I was going to need to
21:47pay off that brand new car in full for
21:50my birthday tell me if you think that's
21:52a coincidence or not even though I
21:54decided to change courses and I went
21:55with a different car tell me I did not
21:58man man EST that and again you guys I
22:00don't say this to boast or brag or show
22:03off I say this to inspire you and to get
22:05you to understand that you are the
22:07creator of your own life you can have
22:09anything you want as long as you set
22:11your mind to it you are the main
22:13character of the game and you can choose
22:14to do anything you want that's not to
22:16say that you can just wish for something
22:18to happen and it'll come true
22:20manifestation isn't just thinking
22:22something into reality it's taking the
22:24action for it to become a reality so the
22:26only thing that's stopping you from
22:27becoming successful and living your
22:29dream life is you one of my favorite
