So I would challenge everybody like, are you really doing the hard thing? There's a book called The Comfort Crisis. It kind of hit me like a ton of bricks. And he talked about how when things get easier and we've kind of got easy, most of us, I don't want to over generalize, but most of us kind of easy lives. We go to the grocery store for our food, we turn the temperature up or down in our house. We have a car that gets us anywhere. And so for most of us, we've got it pretty easy. And he said, when we get used to things being easy, it's not that we're able to do more hard things. Our bar for what's hard gets lower.”15:30 - Marjorie Dudley: “We have a saying in our culture, in our company that says you can't teach what you don't know and you can't lead where you won't go. So one of the best things a sales leader can do is really be willing to be in the trenches with their team. That might look a little bit different based on the structure of different organizations. But how are you leading either what you know or getting to know what you're leading? And how are you teaching from a place? Actually, you and I talked about this recently, like how are you teaching from a place of having actually done it and not just theory?”17:07 - Marjorie Dudley: “If leaders come humble, if leaders lead from a place of example and then also leaders have to be hungry, you know, leaders actually have to be the h

Resources: TKN - Tara Kennis NolanUrban IncomeGrowth Skills Connecting with Tara Nolan: LinkedInTwitter Connecting with Lavall Chichester: LinkedInTwitter Quotables: 14:55 - “Having this ability to create this personal brand for yourself that's rooted in your authentic self and, and where you see yourself going, is more important than ever these days for a couple of reasons. One being the way that we consume content, generally speaking, and from social to any which way, there's someone behind that message. And I think, especially as we see the rise of AI happening, there's lots of benefits to tools we can leverage to make this work of personal branding work for us. However, there's still the human element that's absolutely essential and that is not going to go away, right? And it's only going to become more important. In fact, I think it's probably the strongest competitive advantage to AI is being able to express yourself and show who you are as an individual.”18:40 - “Being strategic and smart and authentic to your business and your brand and what your consumers appreciate and being able to focus so that you can create the most impact is the most important thing. And so if you don't have a certain resource or capability that you know would help fulfill on your mission, go find someone else that has that because you probably can find a shared mission at the core and that way you can do more together.”36:42 - “I think that especially as like minority, underserved communities, you could focus on the negative of things or your situation, but I think everyone has something amazing that someone else has done for them that you could be thankful for. And thinking of those things really, you know, puts your energy, your mind in a different way.”37:35 -  “I had, you know, a home situation where I was breaking up with my ex, had my first panic attack passed out, fell headfirst into the train tracks, almost died. A random person pulled me off the train tracks and saved my life. I was just given up to the universe and the universe said, no, this dude is going to pull you off the tracks. Right? I wake up, and I get out of the hospital, I wake up in the morning and I come home and my friend calls me and this friend is like, he is properly a DJ now. And we, we created this site that allows people to give hope and inspiration through an anonymous email. And I think because of things like that, that's why the universe sort of saved me and said like, you're not done yet.”32:50 - Lavall: “What do you wish you did w

Resources: EncantosUrban IncomeGrowth Skills Connecting with Susie Jaramillo: LinkedIn Connecting with Lavall Chichester: LinkedInTwitter Quotables: 04:11 - “I feel like there's this identity crisis that happens in the United States because there are so many Latinos from so many different places of Latin America in the United States, right? But once you're here, it's really important that we recognize that we're all one thing, we're all Latino, whether you're from Cuba, we're Puerto Rico, Mexico, whatever. Especially because that's how you're perceived by everybody else.”27:29 - “So the Latin kids, they're not getting taught their history. They're not being represented, and now you have like an administration that came in, have really, you know, just cast a shadow on the entire Latin community that has always been an integral part of this American tapestry. And so I kind of found my calling in telling stories that hopefully will appeal to everybody, because I don't tell stories just for Latin people. I tell wonderful Latin stories for everyone.”39:22 - “But what we're using it, for now, is like, if you search online, are women evil, the answers are yes. And so, you know, this white supremacist shot up a black church because he did a search and found some fake stats. So the second way we're using our skills for good is SEO, is we're targeting all those words. We're answering, we're pushing love. So when someone searches are women evil, all those types of things, boom. We're gonna, we're populating the internet with love.”56:20 - “Because AI's coming for people's jobs, and it's coming faster than they think. And the thing is that it's not about, you could be the best talented person, but what you need to start learning how to do is, is learn the AI, use the AI to do your job faster and better. I truly believe now everyone has to start becoming their own personal brand with their own personal awareness. Attracted to them because it's going to be, the future is going to be very

So post [on LinkedIn] about that, like think about helping yourself from two years ago with every single post. And that I think helps kind of spark some ideas of like, what could I write about what wasn't I good at two years ago that I'm really good at now that I could help people with struggling with those same things.”48:37 - “And so I think maybe the, the, the best advice that I could give as a total non-finance person or, or you know, definitely not any kind of accountant is what is the end goal? Do you want to retire? Do you want to travel? Do you want to have a vacation home? Like what is that thing? And then put everything toward that so that you can make it a reality.”08:51 -  “I've been lucky throughout my life, I've had literally mentors who've saved my life, right? And guided me in precious moments where I was going hard down the wrong, wrong direction. It's just like ‘Hey, just take a minute, breathe and I know it's going to happen. You should go this way’. Yeah. And that really, really, really helps. So I think also if you're listening, seek out mentorship. I think that's really important. People don't know that a lot of people want to give back.”26:18 -  “I've been consuming a ton of content about around AI in the future and what, you know, experts are predicting and, and all of these things. And I, I'm starting to feel like because there is going to be job loss, right? And I really think unfortunately, and I think that it is people like you who have built a strong personal brand that will always be in demand, right? That will always hold on to their job because one, you have your own audience. Two, you sort of protect because you have your passive side income.”17:30 - Lavall: “You don't get 17,000 followers overnight. How important is that to your career journey?”... Jess: “I think it is the main tent pole of the rest of my career journey. I think my, when I initially started, my goal was I don't want to ever have to actually apply for a job again. Right.

We are the most educated, the most qualified and successful ethnic minority group, right. With the CEOs of Microsoft and Google and, you know, Adobe and countless other companies. So I think that has helped, it has helped drive the brand perception of people that look like me. And I think it has paved the way… it has opened up doors, it has broken through the glass ceiling where people that look like me are making it to the, you know, to the C-suite.”30:38 - “I think striking that balance from a life perspective, getting help, don't try to do it all on your own, right? If you are, if you are a marketing professional or you are a product professional, that doesn't automatically make you a great investment expert, right? So like everything else, take the reach out, find good investment advisors who can advise, who can craft a strategy, get the right balanced portfolio for you, and then help you maintain and grow, right? And, create your wealth.”31:50 - “If you have a principle of I won't keep debt, I won't have debt, then you'll be less tempted to do that “Buy now, pay later”. Because you're standing for something in a small adage. If you don't stand for something, you're gonna fall for anything.”32:03 - “You're going to do the buy now pay later, because you don't have the cash right now. But you'll want the thing. So instant gratification, you're going to buy it. But what's going to happen is that's called debt. And if you do that more and more and more, you could fall into the trap where you're o you know, you're over your head and then an emergency happens. Yeah. Where you actually need money, then you have to take out a loan or something.”42:45 Lavall: “One thing that I loved in that, that was in there too, is like you took it upon yourself to write it and publish it, and yes.

It is for everyone. Everyone needs to know about money. Dad felt that money doesn't necessarily buy happiness, but managing your money well is very important because money can bring opportunities.”07:23 - “People do business with those they like and trust, and people feel safe when you get them, when you understand them, when you take the time to understand their story and where they're coming from.”25:55 - “And when you, when you think about why do you think that some people don't take control of their finances, right? I think it's taught, you know, a lot of us are taught about finances and that primes them. But, and I said I think some people have fear about, oh it's like I'm already in a trap, like I can't get out of it. Why else?”32:03 - “When I was starting out too, I realized that if the money does not come into your, your check, and it just goes automatically into savings, like you said, you don't have to think about it. And two, you, you're, you are, you get trained on living within the lower amount, right? So if you take 50, 50 bucks out of your paycheck, let's say every month, you get used to living without that 50 bucks, right?”30:56Lavall: “Why can you explain the benefits for the audience of a Roth IRA, what it is and, and why it's beneficial? Marguerita: Sure. So a Roth IRA can be very helpful. Now each year the IRS does raise the income guidelines as well as the maximum amount you can contribute. But the benefit to the Roth IRA is while you do not receive any tax savings today, the money can go tax-free in the future. So that's beneficial. Anybody, it's never too late.”
