What if it's too late to find your voice and share your story?

Age is just a number. You don't have to be young or have to be a certain age to be recognized, to share your story, to do something that has impact. It does not matter what age you reach success; the most important thing is that you decide that you're going to keep pushing and plowing away no matter what.

No matter what your age, you can make it. You can make change possible. Like the people we have in our list, it is never too late!

What does it mean to be vulnerable? Why should I be vulnerable when I share my story? It is all about CONNECTION.

You can definitely share data, information, or the products and services that you are building or selling. However, to connect with people on a deeper level, you really need to go to stories - specifically a personal story.

Let's talk about why being vulnerable with your audience helps you better connect and make a difference with people.

• [03:38] Personal stories allow people to see you in a space of vulnerability.
• [04:58] What you share matters!
• [06:12] I share my actual "confession" and vulnerable side.
• [09:08] Here are a few reactions I received and how people were able to relate to me.
• [10:04] What is one big reason why we fear being vulnerable?
• [11:30] Failure can be used as fuel for your future.
• [12:23] What is the reason we exist?
• [12:46] Success doesn't happen in isolation.
• [13:42] Find Your Voice and Change the World!
