Ambitious Legacy

Hey friends! Thank you for tuning into another episode of the Ambitious Legacy Podcast and for helping me to stay on purpose!   

You may have heard about Wendy Williams, who is currently suffering from some sort of mental disability, and how her financial advisor felt something wasn't right and decided to tell the court, who in turn decided to freeze her assets. She has since filed a lawsuit in order to get access to those assets, but she essentially has no control. Sound familiar? It's definitely giving Britney vibes. Like Britney, Wendy's situation could have been avoided if she had a legacy plan in place, or at the very least, a Power of Attorney and Healthcare Proxy. I've seen this happen time and time again and I don't want it to happen to you, so please make sure you are having these conversations! Have a plan in place now so you're prepared for the things beyond our control.  

For my guest this week I had the pleasure of interviewing Kareem Hayes aka INF the Author and he's dropping gems on NFTs and what I like to call "The Digital Revolution"! INF does ALL the things, including being a self published author of the book "Necessary Evil", which he has sold over 150K copies of independently. From living in a crack house as a child to running away from home at 11 to getting shot, Kareem has been through some rough times, but he has always kept in mind the lessons he learned from his dad and the values he gained from his spirituality, and is now not only a self published author, but a screenwriter, artist, designer, and crypto expert.  He has also turned his book into a series and a film, and is working on another film project that is set to start shooting in March. I told you guys- he does all the things!

Once the pandemic hit, Kareem wanted to find other ways to make additional income so he decided to invest in ETH, and when $300 turned into $1,700, he knew he had to tap into the metaverse and invest in more crypto. He has since immersed himself into the metaverse, and is passionate about educating others on how to do the same. Did you know that you can purchase virtual land and even use NFTs to get into certain clubs or other spaces? Kareem breaks down NFTs and how they are starting to signify status, how major companies like CashApp, Amazon, Google, and PayPal are adding it to their balance sheet (Facebook even changed their name to Meta), and why you should invest while it's still relatively low.

Hey friends, welcome to another episode of the Ambitious Legacy Podcast! Thanks for tuning in and for helping me to stay on purpose!  

You need to hire new team members, and there are always prospects looking for a job so you should be able to fill the role in no time right? All you need is someone with the right qualifications and experience and the rest will fall into place.....except when it doesn't. In the process of trying to expand my team, I came to realize that what I thought I needed, was not always necessarily the right fit for my business. Thankfully, my next guest, who is in expert in this department was able to help me get on track and in the process, I realized that finding a qualified candidate is only half the battle! 

My guest this week, Christlie G who is an entrepreneur and HR consultant, is out here doing all the things, including helping business owners like myself, as she continues to build her empire. Before starting her consulting company, Christlie G. Consulting LLC, she worked her way up in the retail industry from intern to HR Manager, eventually moving into the corporate world and landing a role as a Global HR Partner.   

Christlie had already begun doing consulting work on the side while working full time, but after being let go from her last job, she decided to start her own business and consult full time. She now has a team of 4 and helps businesses find synergy between running a business and having the right team to support them. She also has a program that works with NY and NJ government contractors to mentor Black business owners and help them apply for government contracts.   

Christlie went from working from 5 am to 12 am every single day to owning her own company, educating and mentoring individuals and businesses, building her empire with her husband so her children won't ever have to worry about money, and "building a platform where work is a choice, and not a requirement for survival." Now that's an ambitious legacy!!

Welcome to another episode of the Ambitious Legacy podcast! Thanks for tuning in and for helping me to stay on purpose!  

With the recent announcement of Megan Good's divorce, it got me thinking about questions I often get asked by couples as I'm helping them with legacy planning, regarding what would happen if they end up later separating or divorcing their partner, so tonight I'm going to share some options on how you can add layers to your planning in order to protect your individual assets.  

Credit. We all need credit to build wealth and accumulate assets, but many of us are taught that all debt is bad, have no clue how to repair bad credit, and/or don't know how to use our credit wisely. Well my guest this week, Anthony Davenport, is a credit activist (yes, you read that right!) and advisor, and is changing how clients experience and view credit!  After being a banker for almost 10 years, Anthony discovered that so many people didn't know anything about credit and how it works. So he decided to start helping people build credit so they could purchase homes. Then the 2008 recession hit and he had to file for bankruptcy when his wife was 8 months pregnant with their son. Having to start all over again, Anthony wanted to not only make sure that his family never had to experience that again, but he also wanted to build a business that would help other people recover from similar circumstances.   

When Anthony first started his business there weren't a lot of resources to pull from, but he worked around the clock to learn everything he could to help others with their credit, because he recognized how lucrative it could be in changing the way people viewed credit. From having to work in hotels and setting up air mattresses in his workspace to representing the rich and famous, Anthony's intuition proved to be right, and he has now built a successful company that educates people on credit while providing them with the best options to repair their credit and protect their identities. Anthony's legacy also includes a networking group he created that helps connect people of color from all walks of life so that they can network with likeminded individuals and have the resources that he WISH he had. Now that's an ambitious legacy!

Hey friends, thank you for helping me to stay on purpose and for tuning into another episode of the Ambitious Legacy Podcast!  

Tonight I wanted to talk about real estate and how you can responsibly own your assets. Whether you purchased a property or inherited it, owning real estate is a part of your legacy, so you want to ensure that it is protected, and one way to do that is by incorporating it into your legacy plan, and more specifically, putting it into a trust.  

Real estate is one of the most frequently lost assets when someone passes, and we've all probably seen or heard how family members can take advantage. Which is why I want to talk about what a trust is and how it can help you protect your property!

Welcome back to another episode of the Ambitious Legacy Podcast! Thanks for tuning in and for helping me to stay on purpose!    

I know I spoke a few episodes back about the importance of educating yourself on cryptocurrency whether or not you plan to invest in it, but this week I wanted to dive deeper into cryptocurrency and how you can PROTECT some of those digital assets with a trust. Yes, you read that right, you can incorporate your DIGITAL assets into your legacy planning!  

Speaking of digital...  

Did you know that cryptology has been around before the internet?   

Or that cryptocurrency goes through market cycles similar to stocks?   

How about that digital real estate is a thing??  

This week I had the pleasure of sitting down with crypto expert Armando Juan Pantoja, who IMO, is a genius in the metaverse and digital currency world, and he gives us all the answers and more!  

After working as a software engineer for 15 years, Armando decided to go back to school for his graduate degree in software security with a focus on cryptology, but ultimately dropped out to start his own software company, which ended up being the FIRST software company to accept Bitcoin in the US. Now, he not only is the founder of a successful company that develops emerging tech in AI and crypto, but is also living his ambitious legacy by educating others on cryptocurrency, stocks, NFTs, and finance!

Hey friends, welcome to another episode of Ambitious Legacy! Thanks for tuning in and for helping me to stay on purpose!  

I've been reading this book called "We Should All Be Millionaires..." by Rachel Rogers, and if I'm being honest... it feels like SHE is reading ME lol. Not only is this book relatable and amazing, I think it's a good legacy piece because it ignites the conversation around building the life you WANT to live aka your legacy, and how you can be confident, successful, and a millionaire, starting with changing some simple habits. Although the book is geared towards women, I think it can be useful to anyone looking to make money moves and gain more peace, joy, and confidence!  

Speaking of confidence, my guest this week is the legendary Jane Bond! She is THE ORIGINAL luxury realtor, and is also an author, speaker, entrepreneur, and mentor to many new and young real estate agents.  Most people who embark on entrepreneurship, do so because they want to pursue their passion and/or they are tired of working a traditional job, but Jane has always had the entrepreneurial spirit having been inspired by her parents. Growing up, her parents acquired nightclubs and bars, and her dad allowed her to open up a kitchen at one of the locations where she started her own business at age 14 and was able to work after school. Yup, you read that right! Jane was already making moves before she could even vote! She learned the value of entrepreneurship and respect for money by watching her parents- talk about building an ambitious legacy!  

Jane started getting into real estate when she got married and moved to Florida, and had to quickly learn not only what it meant to be a realtor, but also what it means to be a successful realtor in luxury real estate, and once she mastered it, she changed the game for those to follow. She has now turned her love of real estate into her passion and purpose by giving back to agents that look like her, and showing them that they can also do it and create amazing generational wealth!

Hey friends, welcome back to another episode of Ambitious Legacy!  

It's a new year and for many of us that means working on executing the goals we set for 2022 so we can continue living our ambitious legacies! Remember how when Bitcoin first came out, no one really knew what it was or understood it's potential, and now it's worth thousands of dollars?!! Yeah I know, I wish I invested in it back then too. So this week I wanted to touch on cryptocurrency and NFTs. Whether or not you plan to invest in it (or the next new thing), I can't stress enough the importance of educating yourself so you can make an informed decision and potentially increase your portfolio!  

Speaking of investing, my guest this week is an investor, speaker, educator, and more importantly a mentor- I got to chop it up with the one and only, Storm Leroy! From hip hop artist, to hacker, to owning a barbershop, and then investing in real estate, Storm's legacy is a testament of how his growth as an individual and entrepreneur has led him to be successful in his own right, and how he is now able to educate others on how they can maximize their investments by having the right mindset and blueprint.  

Storm begun investing in real estate in the 90s, during the crack epidemic, in areas where no one even thought about investing in, and bought his first brownstone in BK for 350K! But, even though he was passionate about real estate, by the time he bought his second property he realized that trying to do all the work of gutting and renovating while working a full time job was just not it. He eventually learned that you have to "think like a CEO, not a landlord" when investing in real estate, and that "just like in the dictionary, the word mentor comes before the word money." GEMS!  

Now having learned the importance of mindset, having a mentor, and investing with partners, Storm educates others on how to invest, how to structure your business as an investor, having the right mindset for success, mentorship, and the importance of legacy planning and creating generational wealth the right way.

Hey friends. Thank you for joining me for another episode of Ambitious Legacy and for helping me to stay on purpose!

I can’t believe 2021 is coming to an end, it’s been a crazy, yet amazing year and I am so grateful to get to end it with you guys!

So this week I wanted to talk about legacy planning and how you if you have children, and you leave them money in a trust, you can not only leave specific instructions on what they can spend on the trust funds on, but also a letter or even a video you can leave for them if they experience a life changing event such as getting married, having a child, or in Tariq from Power’s case- unfortunately getting arrested. As you create your legacy plan, you can not only choose what you want to leave behind, but give your loved ones an opportunity to feel connected to you through life’s events, even when you’re no longer around.

I’m also excited to share with you guys some changes that are happening with my firm, my very first event happening next year, and a life changing journal that will help you plan your ambitious legacy!

Make sure you like, comment, and subscribe! Happy new year friends!

Hey friends, thank you for helping me to stay on purpose as I build my Ambitious Legacy and share how others are building theirs!

Speaking of legacies, remember that, the better we are, the more we have to give! For example, here are some questions you should be asking yourself: What do I need to know in order to perfect my craft? How can I improve as a thought leader, business owner, employee, parent, etc? What can I add to my list of courses, books, or other educational pieces, that will help me on my journey of creating my Ambitious Legacy? 

As I continue to build my legacy, one of the things that I am excited to finally share with you guys is a course that me and my good friend, Crystal Young, created called "Successfully Practicing Real Estate in 30 Days"! This course will teach attorneys everything they need to know to successfully practice real estate in just 30 days! A course like no other, it includes everything we WISH we knew when we decided to become attorneys, specifically real estate attorneys, including but not limited to: how to start your own practice, how to network, and how to represent both buyers and sellers from contract to closing! You can purchase the course using the link at the bottom!

My guest this week is someone who continues to be an inspiration to all attorneys, including myself, and who was a huge influence in my decision to create my own course after having taken hers, and seeing how she was able to fulfill a need and create a resource that wasn't available anywhere else. 

So who is this amazing guest? This week I had the pleasure of interviewing thought leader, educator, attorney, and entrepreneur, Sonia Lakhany, who has been featured on Bloomberg, USA Today, CBS, and countless other networks and publications! She is the Trademark Guru, and has multiple courses that teach aspiring trademark attorneys not only how to practice trademark law, but also the business side of being an attorney. 

Sonia (like many of us who come from immigrant parents), didn't have much of a say in her career choice and was pushed by her mom to pursue law. She ended up gravitating towards trademark law because it was the only class in law school that really resonated with her. After graduating law school, she started filing trademarks for free to gain the experience, and her story ended up landing her a job as a trademark attorney, which was the stepping stone to the numerous firms she would go on to work for. After 5 years she decided that it was no longer serving her, and decided to quit and bet on herself! Although she didn't have a plan, she knew that whatever she did would be successful. She now has million dollar courses, is doing what she loves, and serves as someone that attorneys and people of color can aspire to be and learn from. Now that's an ambitious legacy!

Welcome back to another episode of Ambitious Legacy! Thanks for tuning in and for helping me to stay on purpose!  

This week I want to dive deeper into the concept of generational wealth. Many of us are already taking the steps towards building generational wealth through asset acquisition, but I want to talk more about the transitional (generational) part of wealth building. It may feel uncomfortable to talk about what will happen once you're no longer around, but it doesn't have to be a morbid conversation. If you think about what it takes to build generational wealth, you're already planning for the future, but it's important to make sure the focus is not only on your assets, but also on what you care about and who you care about, and how you plan to protect both and incorporate that into a legacy plan. So I'm going to provide you with tips on how you can have these conversations with your loved ones, how you can put a legacy plan in place, and how to transcend your current mindset around creating a plan!  

My guest this week is the dope, talented, and gifted Asia Denson! Based in Detroit, Asia not only owns her own construction company, Denson Construction Services, but she is out here killing the game you guys and inspiring so many lives just by being herself and doing what she loves. Although she initially wanted to be an architect, she ultimately decided to pursue construction after working as a highway engineer co-op intern and recognizing how lucrative the business (and the paychecks) were, even as an intern. She has now been in business for 12 years, and while building her business she has learned: what it means to be in a male dominated industry, how to recognize her worth and attract the right clients, the kind of people she can sub out work to, the value she brings to her clients and those in the construction industry, and how representing your city can really open up people's minds and help them to see it the way you do, someplace to be proud of!  

From paying yourself last, to battling lawsuits, to being in business for 11 years and doing so successfully without having any staff, and having a supportive family, make sure you to tune in to hear more about Asia's ambitious legacy and don't forget to rate and subscribe!
