Ep 65. How to walk away from a career that isn't right for you, with 7-figure sales coach Jasmine Green May 12, 2020

Show notes

What do you do when society has expectations on what your life and career should be, but you don't feel the same way? - Do what works for you!

That's exactly what Jasmine Green did when she gave up an opportunity to go to Medical School. She realized it just wasn't right for her. Just as quickly as Jasmine made that decision, she went from a path of financial and professional security as a doctor to starting over from scratch.

Jasmine went through a turbulent time trying to figure out what she was meant to do. She quickly got caught up in a bunch of dead-end jobs, just trying to survive. Jasmine had no sense of direction, identity, and was completely lost and alone.

She hit her rock bottom when she ended a relationship and had to up move back home with all of her belongings. For most people, this would have been enough to put aside any vision of a successful future, but Jasmine always knew that she was meant for more. So she put a plan in place to live the life she knew she deserved.

Jasmine's story is so incredibly impactful because no matter what circumstances she was in, she never wavered from doing the work it takes to figure out one's purpose. She had so many career pivots before she got to where she is today.

Now, Jasmine is working as a successful 7-figure sales coach helping business owners reach multiple six figures. Her purpose is to help her clients become who they need to be to in order to earn the results they desire.

The best part of it all is, Jasmine no longer has to continue to seek and search for clients, opportunities, or income - they all come to her.

Show notes

This week, we're talking to Makaela Richardson of Free The Fresher about creating this business as a student in London.

Originally from Bermuda, Makaela moved to the UK at 18 to pursue her college degree. If you don't know, London is expensive, and as a student, it's even worse! Makaela couldn't find any program that would provide school supplies and living expenses at an affordable price, so she decided to create it herself!

Makaela started her college subscription service with zero funding and within its first year, Free The Fresher had acquired over 30,000 members. Now, at just 24, Makaela's business has processed over $2 million in revenue (in 2019).

Show notes

Sierra Howard of the I Don't Do Budgets Podcast talks about how she went from 9k in debt to secretly paying it all off.

Sierra talks about how she started developing a really bad spending habit in college and how it got out of control. It got to the point where she was actually embarrassed to talk to her partner about how much debt she was in. I'm so happy she talked about this because so many of us hide our debt in shame instead of bringing it out to light.

Sierra took everything she learned and now helps people who are in a similar position as her get out of debt and grow their savings and investment portfolio.

Then, she started the I Don't Do Budgets podcast to share stories, advice, and insight into how we look at money.

Here's what we talk about:

The moment she realized she needed to do something about her debt
How her experience has allowed her to make a business out of helping other people to get out of debt
Why Sierra doesn't do budgets
How going into Sephora without a plan is always a
