Have you ever sat through a sales pitch thinking you knew what was coming... only to be hit with a $50,000 price tag? 😳 SAME.
In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on one of the biggest financial decisions I made this year: investing in a professional development program with Gary Vaynerchuk’s team. It was a big leap, a big number, and (spoiler alert!) a BIG shift in how I approach business investments.
If you're wondering whether investing in your growth is worth it, I’m sharing the 3-part framework I use before I spend a dime:
1️⃣ Highlight the Differences: Why every investment must teach me something new.
2️⃣ Access Matters: How the right room can change your life.
3️⃣ Proximity is Power: Why being near greatness accelerates success.
Plus, you’ll hear what I learned from watching Gary Vee behind the scenes, how small gestures reveal leadership, and why “hi” can be a secret business superpower.
Whether you're spending $500 or $50,000, this episode will help you make bolder, smarter investments.
Friend, if you’re in the digging phase—building, dreaming, working before anyone sees it—this is your sign: Keep digging. Keep growing. Your skyscraper moment is coming.
And if you haven’t left a review, consider this your loving nudge. ❤️
