 “If you don’t like who you see in the mirror—change it.”

What does it take to completely reinvent your life at 40? Andy and Jacqueline Elliott, founders of the Elliott Group, open up about their rock-bottom moment, the brutally honest relationship that saved them, and how they built one of the fastest-growing training empires in the world.

This is not just about sales. It’s about becoming the version of yourself you’re most proud of—at home, in business, and in life. From turning pain into power to redefining success beyond money, this episode will shake your perspective.

Watch now to learn what makes a Category King, why most sales training is broken, and how to build a brand so real, it repels the wrong people and attracts everything else.
