More about and from Lane:

Aloha, my name is Lane!

“The true meaning of wealth is having the freedom to do what you want, when you want, and with whom you want. Building cash flow via real estate is the simple part. The difficult part occurs after you are free financially to find your calling and fulfillment. But that’s a great problem to have ;)” excerpt from “The One Thing That Changed Everything”

After 12 years as a Licensed Professional (PE) Civil/Industrial Engineer, I fired the boss and began to focus 100% of my time on my investing and helping others in my Passive Investor Accelerator & Mastermind. 

I began investing in 2009 in rainy Seattle; being a ramen-eating cheapo, I was able to buy a property early, right after college. After discovering the difference between ‘Cashflow Investing’ and ‘appreciation investing (gambling/speculating)’… I moved my portfolio into 11 single-family rentals in Birmingham, Atlanta, Indianapolis, and Pennsylvania. Today, I am investing in syndications that invest in Class C & B Multi-Family Apartment, RV Parks, mobile homes, and assisted living facilities because of this Nation’s demand for affordable housing – not rich people's Class-A assets. My mission is to help regular people into good deals that were once only accessible to the rich. The passive income from investing in stabilized rental properties made it possible for me to move back home to Hawaii, where the cost of paradise is 10%+ cost of living and -30% less pay for comparable jobs on the US mainland. There I was able to live a lifestyle where I was able to bike to work. It did not take me long, however, to finally quit the day job and ditch the e-bike for a Mercedes.

Annoyed by the bogus real estate education programs out there (that take money from people who don’t have it in the first place), I set out to make this free website to help other hard-working professionals, the shrinking middle-class dispel the Wall-Street dogma of traditional wealth-building and offer an alternative to “garbage” investments in the 401K/mutual funds that only make the insiders rich. We help the hard-working middle-class build real asset portfolios by providing free investing education, podcasts, and networking plus access to investment opportunities not offered to the general public.

Yes, the website is a little all over the place but join me on my journey to help build the Simple Passive Cashflow system.

In a captivating episode of the "Go Be Great" podcast, host Karena Calhoun, an avowed introvert, opens up about the possibility of pursuing one's purpose regardless of personality type. Karena introduces Leslie Gaudet, a guest who embodies the spirit of freedom and adaptability as a digital nomad. Leslie recounts her transformative journey from a life of misery to one of autonomy and exploration, living across various countries. She shares invaluable insights for those contemplating a similar path, emphasizing the necessity of meticulous planning and the liberation that comes with minimizing material possessions.

Leslie's narrative also delves into the profound impact of self-care on her marital relationship, underscoring it as a pivotal component of her overall well-being. Karena reflects on such life-altering decisions as the epitome of self-care and personal development, affirming that it's never too late to live one's best life after the age of 50.

The episode also explores the grueling challenges faced in traditional employment—long hours and a compromised quality of life. The importance of self-care and spiritual grounding is highlighted as essential to happiness and a fulfilling existence. Through a personal anecdote, Leslie illustrates the transformative power of self-care in the transition to entrepreneurship and its ripple effect on personal relationships.

In conclusion, Leslie stresses the significance of seeking assistance and taking mental respite to prevent burnout. She advocates for the integration of self-care into corporate culture, which she believes can result in a happier workforce, cohesive teams, and lower attrition rates. Encouraging women over 50 to make self-care a priority, Leslie's story is a testament to living a life of joy and contentment. Her delightful experience on the podcast with Karena is a testament to the ease and enjoyment she found in sharing her story. For further guidance and inspiration, Leslie Gaudet can be reached via her website at lesliegaudetcoaching.podia.com.

In an engaging episode of the "Go Be Great" podcast, host Karena Calhoun warmly introduces her guest, Lissa Figgins. Together, they delve into the art of being present and the beauty of loving the world around them. The conversation steers towards the importance of decelerating life's pace and being deliberate with time management. Lissa, drawing from her work with women in midlife, shares insights on the quest for intentionality rather than busyness, underscoring the value of full presence in life's various facets and debunking multitasking as an ineffective approach.

Lissa brings attention to the subtle yet significant distractions of digital clutter, like the myriad of open tabs on our devices that, even when not in use, fragment our focus. She shares her personal journey of digital decluttering, which led to a profound sense of inner peace, and suggests practical strategies such as using bookmarks and establishing firm boundaries between work and personal life to enhance concentration.

Emphasizing the necessity of self-care, Lissa speaks to the importance of replenishing oneself to effectively contribute to others. She shares daily routines that foster balance, including prayer, shared meals, and relaxation activities with her partner. Lissa's mission extends to assisting women in evaluating their life's priorities, setting intentions that resonate with their values, and making conscious choices to avoid a life mired in purposeless busyness.

Lissa Figgins, as a coach, confronts the pervasive issue of busyness, particularly its toll on women in midlife who are cultivating their businesses. She advocates for a transition from mere busyness to a life marked by faithfulness and intention, which she believes is the key to genuine fulfillment. Drawing from her own experiences, Lissa is dedicated to guiding women through the maze of their hectic lives, offering resources such as a free guide, her podcast, and personalized coaching services. These tools are designed to empower women to reclaim their time and live with intention and purpose.

About 7 years ago Vladimir Adonis decided in order to make a true impact he had to consider leaving his Role as a college executive and go into entrepreneurship.  So he paid a programmer close to 30K to custom build a dating/dancing website.  This would give him the ability to leave his career and go into entrepreneurship.  

After launching the dating site he had a hard time consistently getting members to join the site. To solve this problem he started learning everything he can about lead generation and marketing. 

Fast track seven months later the site started to pick up and grow.  Unfortunately he learned that he was in violation of copyright laws and had to shut down the entire site to avoid legal ramifications.  

He decided to pivot and started to teach the marketing strategies he had learned to grow his online dating site...

After hosting close to 60 marketing workshops he started to feel confident and comfortable with his craft.  This later turned into a full time business which enabled him to leave his full time employer. 

Today he helps his client develop and optimize marketing process to bring in more leads and make more sales through his business Vladamir Marketing.

Today, Vladamir is leading entrepreneurs into getting prospects to say "yes" using a 4 step micro-commitment strategy.

In this episode, I am talking about aligning your beliefs with your goals.  

The first step in creating goals that are aligned with your internal beliefs is identifying what those beliefs are. Many of us have hidden beliefs that we're unaware of, which can sabotage our efforts to achieve our goals. 

For example, if you believe you're not good enough or don't deserve success, these beliefs will prevent you from achieving your goals.

Many small business brands "look" good online, but behind the scenes, they are struggling to market their business and sell enough to make a living.

There's so much more that goes into creating a beautiful brand that attracts paying customers than fabulous fonts, colors, and a pretty Instagram feed filled with professional photos. And that's where Black Women Moguls' comes in.

Emotional Thought creates reality.

Eric Clayton helps people understand how they create their world by joining what he calls Emotion Labels and thought, which we combine to call Emotional Thought. He states that we should separate emotion, thought, and feeling. (Not Feelings) We only have one feeling, and it is the same for all emotions, for it is the creative power that impregnates the subconscious mind with the baby of the Emotional Label and the thought. Awareness of this power will eventually create a neural pathway in your brain, which will alert you of all subconscious pregnancies.

Your glass is never half empty or half full. Your glass is always full if you have the right glass!

Kemir Baker has been a Christian for over twenty years. She attributes her success to the blessings and inner workings of God. She endured a traumatic childhood that included abuse from a caregiver on all levels. Much later in life after possessing difficulties in college, specialists diagnosed her with a learning disability. However, she did not allow these experiences to prohibit her from achieving her dreams and goals. She decided that these circumstances would not define her future. Defying specialists, she became a seasoned IT professional who used her talents in the digital and mobile ecosystems to move companies forward in the technology industry by establishing innovative solutions. Kemir also defied obstacles and cultural taboos by representing women within core engineering departments governed mostly by men.

Her personal healing journey has occurred for decades and continues. She acknowledges that it takes time to heal. As she continued her life’s journey, she sought strength and purpose from God. Kemir’s love for God propelled her to deepen her understanding of the scriptures by pursuing a Master of Theological Studies from Regent University. During her studies, she developed a deep passion for exegetical theology. She was amazed by her studies in the original grammatical, literal, and historical context of the scriptures and the richness it provides for a deeper level of intimacy with God and His Word. Not only richness, but identifying the continuity and completeness of God’s Word. She completed the degree program in 2016.

Due to her own life experiences, Kemir understood the importance of having a great support team and tools to heal. Therefore, she founded the nonprofit organization, J-Intelligence Networks, Inc. Our mission is to empower women to walk in the healing Jesus provides, equipping them through connection and education to live the abundant life God has for them. With the assistance of life coaches, social workers, therapists, and everyday people, we inspire others to pursue long term transformation on their healing journeys. Our goal is for women to be spiritually strengthened and delivered from circumstances.

A Healing Peace is a website entity owned by J-Intelligence Networks, Inc. J-Intelligence Networks is a nonprofit organization that promotes the message of healing through Jesus Christ. Our mission is to use faith-based and therapeutic tools to empower women in their emotional health and wellness process.

Growing up in New York and moving to Toronto after marrying a Canadian, she was untouched by significant adversity throughout her youth. She imagined a similarly happy life for her children.

As a mental health governance expert, advocate, author of Hold on Tight: A Parent's Journey Raising Children with Mental Illness, and parent of two children with multiple, complex mental health disorders, my goal is to inspire and empower parents of similar children to persevere, have hope and not give up.

Living on the B Side has evolved a lot since I initially had the original website created. From a personal blogging website, it has now turned into a Podcast focused passion project whilst still having the guest blogging element to it.

I also learned more about the power of music and how amazing it can be to integrate it into my daily life. Chatting to others about their take on how music impacts their lives has contributed heavily to the changes now being made to my website.

Please bear with me whilst I work through this process; I want to get it right to do my vision for it justice.

In the meantime, I would love to stay in touch with you so we can continue to share our common passion for music and life.

Anjeza Angie Gega is an Artist, Speaker, Author and a Humanitarian.

Anjeza Angie Gega was born in Tirana, Albania. The Daughter of a science teacher and a mechanic father, both of whom were artistically talented but couldn’t pursue it because of political control and limitations. Against all odds, relying on her passions, inherited artistic talents, and an outspoken attitude of “I will do what feels right”, Anjeza Angie Gega decided to listen to her desires more than her fears.  Reading, Dancing, Singing, Studying, Acting, Creating and embracing extracurricular physical activities were the highlight of her childhood while coping with the economic status of her family. Never crying about her past nor complaining about the present, she constantly kept her eyes into the future. 

Anjeza is a professional singer, actress, dancer, and author that aims to make an emotional and financial positive difference in the world. Her professional world trips, since a very early age, reinforced an early maturity and objective view of the world, which then inspired this quote book that aims to wake up some hope, strength, enlightenment, inspiration, and self-realization. Anjeza Angie Gega holds two degrees, one in Broadcasting and another in Communication. She also studied Psychology in the affiliated UK Sheffield University located in Greece. After interning to become a part time journalist while being an artist, she realized that TV media was too politically corrupt and controlled for her to be part of it. She chose a different path, a path that will take her away from suppression of truth, into a circle where making a difference came from a genuine resource of love.  Bringing truth is strongly echoed in many of her quotes. 

She doesn’t write to impress, but rather to identify, admit mistakes, find strength, suggest better choices, and overcome negativity by embracing light. “I am far from perfect. I haven’t conquered life. I haven’t magically become permanently smart and never mistaken after bad choices.  I still fall, crawl, cry, smile... but most importantly I try again... I stand up. Many of these quotes are not preaching... but alerting others and my conscience as well... Mind for some reason believes faster the information that comes from outside.  So I chose to trick my mind and teach her something as an outsider” -she says about her book.  She hopes her experiences and thoughts in this quote book will be perceived well by a diverse audience and they will make a difference in their life, because she lives for it.

Author of 'The Book' which is available on Amazon and you can find out more about her by visiting her website Anjeza.

PAIN...LOVE...ENLIGHTENMENT...
The path to enlightenment is Long. The book of mistakes is thick. The desires can draw a masterpiece of stars in the sky. The tears of pain can fill an ocean. No matter what, we stand composed ... Assured that tomorrow will be different, better, or remain the same amazing way it was.... because it WILL... Faith has the power to make these miracles come true.

Come and discover a path I didn’t walk alone... conclusions I didn’t create on my own... Come and discover a piece of my heart that was created from your lives .

Inspiring quotes...lessons learned... Raw truths... All wrapped by LOVE and FORGIVENESS ... First for yourself and then for others, because we are worth it, because we are precious in the eyes of the True Perfection.

LOVE,
Anjeza

Meet Nikita

• Daughter of a King
• Certified Professional Life Coach
• Virtual Assistant ~ Published Author

Hi, I am Nikita Hines, CEO/Founder of Nikita Hines Enterprises which envelopes my various business ventures including but not limited to Renew You LLC and Luxury Virtual Solutions LLC.  Those who have worked with me may identify me as Nikita, Coach Nik,  or The Purpose Pusher. Personally, I identify myself as A Daughter of a KING. King being Jesus Christ. It took me several years to really say that aloud. I've always known it but now I have whole heartedly accepted my role as a part of the kingdom.

Like many of us feel, life hasn't always dealt me a pretty hand. I have went through various obstacles that have challenged my walk (i.e. single parenting hardships, depression, anxiety, negative mindset, unhealthy patterns & cycles, struggles with fibromyalgia, weight loss, etc.) I have also had just as many challenges with building a business; being organized & consistent. It wasn't until I decided to let go and let God and surrender to him wholeheartedly before I began to see more of an alignment with my mind, body, spirit, and business. I had decided enough was enough. My faith walk is maturing & prayerfully will continue to develop daily. I'm not perfect, the road isn't always easy but it's amazing what a mustard seed of Faith, a whole lot of prayer, and dedication can do for you.

There's no doubt in my mind that the brand I am building is a part of my purpose and calling. I have made it a priority to help others overcome some of the same obstacles I have went through and develop a better lifestyle, whether it be through your health, business, or spiritually. The products and services I provide are developed on a foundation of faith and love, in hopes that it will bring growth to you and/or your business in some form or fashion. Small changes bring big results. I am here to serve, guide, and walk with you on your journey to newness and success.

Recently, I've been on a quest to learn more about networking.  Something that I have adamantly ran from and absolutely hated.  Truth be told...I did not understand it.  I'm making it my business to understand now. 

Networking is one of the most important things you can do for your business, but it's also one of the most intimidating. 

It's hard to know where to start and what to do when you're networking. You don't want to come across as pushy or sales-y, but you also want to make a good impression, genuinely connect, build relationships, give of yourself and get some leads.

In this episode, I am speaking to LaDawn VanKirk who specializes in direct sales and LaDawn is sharing her tips, tools and strategies for impactful networking.  

Listen to this fireside chat and how to network effectively so that you can build relationships with potential clients, partners, and suppliers.

"Protection for Your Digital Life"

Helping Families Protect Their Digital Lives 🔒 ID Theft Protection Specialist

If I could wave a magic wand and make it disappear, this persistent need to seek out approval from other people, I definitely would.  If we could just find it in ourselves to trust our own selves and be comfortable within our own skin, wouldn’t that be a prime example of living the best life possible?

Do you have specific hopes and dreams that you wish to achieve one day, but have no idea how to accomplish them?

If that’s the case, well, you are not alone! MOST people tend to have dreams and aspirations, but only see the vision of their dream fulfilled, without being able to create a clear pathway to actually achieving it.

Many people go through life with dreams of becoming something greater than what they are now, and unfortunately many of those dreams never come true, because people don’t know what steps to take to achieve success.

Are you a woman who wants to live your life on purpose?

Then this podcast is for you! We’re here to help women overcome the inner stumbling blocks that are holding them back from living their best life. You can listen in and learn how to break through limiting beliefs, self-sabotage, and procrastination so that you can achieve your goals, live your life of purpose and authenticity.

Our host has been there before – she knows what it feels like to be stuck in a rut or overwhelmed by all the things we have going on in our lives. She’s learned how important it is not only to set goals but also to create strategies for achieving those goals so that they become reality instead of just dreams. And now she wants to share her knowledge with other women who want more out of their lives too! So join us every week as we talk about overcoming obstacles, creating new habits, setting intentions, breaking bad habits, and much more! It’s time for women everywhere to go be great!

Brandon Leibowitz of SEO Optimizers brought key elements to the show today surrounding SEO, the dark web, how long it should take, and other valuable insights.   The main vital takeaway here is that when it comes to SEO timeframes - It really depends on the business, it depends on the competitors, and it depends on what you're trying to rank for. If you have a highly competitive keyword, you may be looking at 6 months before you start seeing any real results. But if you have a less competitive keyword, you might start seeing results within a couple of months.   Take a listen and be sure to grab your notebook, journal, coffee, tea, or beverage of choice and take great notes.

Jacklyn Purvis co-founded the Be Do Have Movement; the High-Performance Coaching Company founded in 2019.

This company was founded when she and her business partner (and father) left industries in which we were no longer happy.  Jacklyn left the corporate world of marketing and advertising after realizing that she wasn't living the life she wanted and was settling for a career that left her with severe anxiety.

After personally studying coaching programs and certifications to move forward in her own life and business, she realized it was her responsibility to ensure other people had this information too. Stuck can be a place you are in, yet it doesn't have to be where you stay.

Breaking through anxiety and making massive changes in your life and business to follow purpose and passion is possible. Women can have the life and business they desire when they learn to live by the Be Do Have Method. That's what you learn with the Be Do Have Movement.

What is the one thing listeners need to know about working with you?

That I got into this industry initially because I was lost, anxious, and unsure of the next step in my life. I felt like I never fit in and did not know where to go to move forward; I was where they are too. Now I am on the quest to help other women know that change is possible for them too.

- Anxiety, Mindset, and Movement can change everything in your world
- You don't have to stay in something that isn't making you happy
- You have a choice every day to step into the woman you desire to be
- Growth is possible. It begins with the Be Do Have Method

How Do I Work with Clients?

At Resistant Vision, we have three steps to working with clients:

• Calming your nervous system using the Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT/tapping), self-care, and pleasure inventories;
• Clarifying your goals and paving a path ahead; and
• Committing to your goals to bring about the life you want.

As a coach, I work with lawyers to:

1. Get out of the fight, flight, or freeze - no more feeling held hostage to your bosses and clients;
2. Prioritize your well-being;
3. Reconnect with the amazing ways you wanted to make a mark on the world; and
4. Set a path forward to leaving your mark.

As a result, clients have built the professional and personal habits they need to have a sustainable legal career and create the world they want without burnout and exhaustion.

The Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), also known as tapping, is a simple tool that can clean up the feelings associated with trauma and physical hurts by tapping on acupuncture points while repeating phrases. This is fundamental to lawyers transforming their work lives, so they're not held hostage to work, their family, or the community. This is fundamental to creating pleasure in your life and spreading that pleasure.

The four biggest challenges my clients face that undermine overall well-being and productivity are:

1. Reducing Stress by Taking Charge of Your Time: How to Prioritize Yourself for Professional Success and Avoid Burnout;
2. How to Build a Regular, Sustainable, and Long-Term Writing Practice: Writing Without Burnout and Compromised Health, and
3. Writing with Support: Using the Tools of Social Writing to Keep Large Writing Projects Moving Forward.
4. How to Use Billable Hours as a Planning Device to Direct Your Time, Your Focus, Your Priorities, and Your Energy.

I give speeches and workshops about these four topics and more and would love to share what I know with your colleagues, department, division, or law firm.

The price depends on the audience and location, so to schedule an engagement with you, please complete the form below, and we can connect.

Do you ever feel like there’s a big hole in your life that you need to fill but you can’t point out what it is that’s missing? It happens to many of us. Even to those who appear to have everything.

This feeling of emptiness arises for various reasons. Sometimes it’s a trigger to make you feel more aware of yourself, and to dig deeper into yourself, beyond the surface level. When this feeling happens to you, take action.

Here are some tips on how you can decide what might be missing in your life.

I'm a big believer in more life. I'm happy to be a spark that lets a person know, "it's gonna be alright." - Lea Williams.

The story of Chronicler X begins with seeing (and experiencing) that we humans love to receive letters.  Period.  We do.

We also want to feel valued.  Since I see you as precious - even sacred - it’s important that you get that message in a tangible way.  Letters do that.  I know of nothing else that does that so beautifully, do you?

I’m Lea Williams, (“Lee”) compulsive creator of written and photographed images.

You know:  we all have gifts.  After years as a travel writer, publicist, and editor, being on-air on the radio, and doing photo gallery shows, it’s very clear this is my gift.  Creating letters that take you on illuminating, comforting adventures.

There are two messages floating around about letters now:

1.  they’re a “lost art”  (don’t get me started!)

2.  we miss getting them.  In fact, we get dewy-eyed, remembering when we got them.

So starting Chronicler X was both  “not so fast, buster!” and let me give you that lovely pleasure again.  You can have it again!

Now, of course, Chronicler X is not the one and only letter subscription.  So why this one?

Well, this one responds to  -- your desire to learn, explore and drink in some lovely adventures in the wide world.

And your longing for the comfort and uplift of letters.

First, the giddy joy of seeing it in your mailbox.  Then the reading - the escape, the discoveries, and even the delicious feel of the heavy, textured paper.

One subscriber said each letter is “a little trip that makes you want another.”  I deeply believe you deserve that.

Learn about Dr. Lynda Ulrich, Founder of The Goodness Exchange.

Welcome! I’m Dr. Lynda M. Ulrich, DMD: writer, artist, global traveler, citizen scientist, and founder of the Goodness Exchange (formerly Ever Widening Circles)

In this bio, I’m going to tell you a lot about myself because I want you to feel like you are having coffee with a friend when you visit the Goodness Exchange.

Additionally, I am skeptical of websites where you look at the “about” page, and there is only an impersonal, canned blurb there, or maybe nothing at all. Who are these people? Why should I trust them with my time?

I know my bio here is unconventionally long, but adhering to “convention” has never been one of my strong suits, so please feel free to step off the “Dr. Lynda Story” at any time. Really, this is far too long, but it is the whole story of an ordinary person who has found her way in and out of a lot of extraordinary circumstances.

Here is one of my favorite quotes:

Louis Pasteur"Chance favors the prepared mind."

A fortunate confluence of aptitudes and events has uniquely prepared me to create the Goodness Exchange (formerly EWC). Here are a few of the high and low points in that journey:

A message from the goodness family

There are millions of people quietly working around the world to make life better for others. Unfortunately, their stories are often drowned out by the negative noise of the 24/7 news cycle. As a positive media company, the Goodness Exchange (formerly Ever Widening Circles) celebrates meaningful insights and innovations through uplifting content that prove it’s still an amazing world.

About Us

We are on a mission to celebrate the wave of goodness and progress that is well underway all around the world.

You were right to believe that there is a world of goodness out there that we're not seeing. Together, we can change the negative dialogue about our times!

Why us?

The team at the Goodness Exchange is on a mission to help people find and celebrate the wave of goodness and progress, a movement we call The Conspiracy of Goodness™. We are a team of ordinary people who have come together to grow a global community and share stories of ingenuity, wonder, and good news that almost anyone would agree signals great progress in the world. So, say hello!

In this episode I touch on building business credit that's not linked to you social security number.  It's vital that we establish our business credit profile's so let's dive in!  If you have questions once the show is over please feel free to reach out to me at www.warkry.com or you can schedule a call with me.

From Jenny - I am a coach, entrepreneur, and author.  I have been a passionate self-improvement student for over 15 years now. I published my book The Whywareness Effect in May 2022.

Have you ever asked yourself why we are so in love with the word Why? And the number of times we use this word unconsciously throughout our lifecycle.

Human beings are curious kitties, hungry to find a reason for each event that occurs in our lives, especially if those events are related to our development.

My Mission

After struggling for so long doing things I thought would make me happy, I noticed something was missing and couldn’t figure it out.

After attending my first live seminar, something clicked inside, and things were the same and decided to learn and share this, becoming passionate about helping and serving others to find their way through, just as it did for me a few years back. I am sharing this to inspire you because you are not alone, and if you want to improve in any area of your life, you will need some guidance.

In this episode I am highlighting:  JaCoi James of The Black Women's Wall Street.  Here's more info about The Black Women's Wall Street:

Black Women's Wall Street, Inc. was formed in 2018 by women who each had a unique, yet powerful background.  Each of these ladies recognized the greatness in each other and felt that there needed to be an organization put in place that would honor the black women for her strength, courage, intelligence and beauty.  Too many times to count, there have been repeated instances, stories told by other Black women who have dreams of starting their own businesses yet are crippled by either fear, lack of knowledge or lack of support from those around them.

Interestingly enough, there is history of Black businesses thriving and supporting each other in what was once known as Black Wall Street.  Black Wall Street, formerly known as The Greenwood Neighborhood, was in Tulsa, Oklahoma back in 1905.  Blacks during this time created a self-sufficient and prosperous business district which included a grocery store, barbershop, doctor's office and real estate agents.  They even had their own school and newspaper!  After a race riot that broke out in 1921, many of the businesses and homes were destroyed which after an attempt to rebuild, Black Wall Street never regained the strength and prestige it once had.

For Black Women's Wall Street, Inc., we not only look to rebuild the community of businesses and support of what Black Wall Street once was but we want to do it on a slightly unique scale. Our Black women have been the strength that others have borrowed from and now, not only as women, but as Black women, we are requiring a seat at the table. We have grand ideas, formal education, husbands, children and elderly parents who look to us as nurturers, educators and providers in our homes. We are multi-talented with the brains to be CEO's in our homes, hearts the size of Texas and beauty that is often emulated. Black Women's Wall Street is on a mission to strengthen, encourage, train, support and empower women to not only create their own businesses but to be self-sustaining past the 3-5 year decline of most startup businesses.  We look to create a community of women who want more and will fight to have more so that we can build a legacy and create wealth for our families for generations to come. When Black women fight for any cause, we fight for issues that benefit everyone and all communities!

​Black Women's Wall Street, Inc is a proud member of The Mansfield Area Chamber of Commerce and Arlington Black Chamber of Commerce.

​Connect with this amazing women entrepreneur and continue to GO BE GREAT!

This month I have the pleasure of honoring women from around the United States who have impacted the world and were featured guests on the Go Be Great Podcast. I am thrilled beyond words to have this opportunity.

About Grace-Ann Johnson

"I am who God says I am; therefore, I am ENOUGH!"

Grace-Ann Johnson is an experienced Life Coach and Finance Professional with over 20 years of leadership experience in financial and coaching roles; where she has encouraged and guided  employees and colleagues alike to advance their professional and personal lives. She has worked for well-known and award winning hotels such as: W-Hotels, New York Palace, Omni Berkshire-New York, The James SoHo, among others.

Her love for connecting and building relationships, helping and teaching others to unlock their true potential and grow their knowledge in finance; mixed with her distinct managerial style has afforded her the opportunity to understand what it takes to make businesses and leaders successful, lucrative and balanced.

After years as a highly-accomplished finance executive in corporate America, Grace-Ann chose to fully trust God, by stepping out of her fear, and into her passion and purpose as a full-time Life Coach.

ENOUGH IS ENOUGH BOOTCAMP | RISE, BELIEVE AND PURSUE -> 4 DAYS | INTENSIVE BOOTCAMP | JUNE 9 - JUNE 12 

CLAIM 2021 AS YOUR YEAR OF BREAKTHROUGH

She decided to pursue her true-calling after a heart-breaking, but much needed revelation from her oldest son who one day said, “Mommy, I woke up this morning and I didn’t see you and now I am going to bed and still I don’t see you.” Due to Grace-Ann's demanding position, that had her working late nights, she often didn't get to spend the evenings and early mornings, with her children during the work week. Her oldest son's words broke her heart, but also sparked a fire in her to take action and to seek out her true calling; that was fully in alignment with her values and God-given gifts and talents.

Grace-Ann knows first-hand the fear and uncertainty in taking the first, transformative step, but also knew that the divine purpose that God has placed within her had to take precedence over these concerns. After all we were put on this earth to fulfill our God-given purpose. Once she decided to step into her purpose she created robust plans of action, tools, guides and resources to help others understand that they too can step out of fear and inadequacy and into being more than ENOUGH.

The rich foundation set by her mother, genuine love for building relationships, teaching others, authenticity, and business acumen has provided the basis for her new chapter:

Grace is Enough.
