Ever thought of being with the same company for 23 years and still loving it! Today I am very excited to share with you our guest Rachel Vargas.  What is the secret? She is passionate about what she does! She has gone from admin support to a general managerial role and from operational to sales. Now as a top leader in her company she loves to inspire others just like you. She talks and shares some of those necessary skills for our leaders of tomorrow. She shares tips and life lessons that I promise each one of us can take a little nugget of wisdom from. A few of my favorite takeaways from our conversation: 

  •  Her parents were hardworking and instilled and encouraged her at an early age to be financially independent.
  • Say yes to more things! She says you will figure it out. That 1st ONE step might be the step to so many other opportunities that might come about!
  • I love her heart of giving back. As a leader she works with her team so they can accomplish their own personal goals!
  • She shares with us how to work well with people we might find difficult to work with. Great tips for our kids!
  • She also references mentors as part of her success. She hopes that our young kids can also surrounds themselves with good people who will help them fill in any gaps to help them succeed; ultimately encouraging and helping them.

And guess what friends, that is what this show is about! To share a wide variety of mentors for your kids while helping YOU as a mom, build a large network and community of people who are here to support each other!

Her book recommendations: 

  • The Compound Effect: JumpStart your Income, Your Life, Your Success
  • The 100/0 Principle by Al Ritter
