And welcome, welcome, ah, I just hit the wrong button.
Don't wanna do that.
Okay, not the way to start.
Okay, welcome, welcome.
I must cut you guys off before we started.
Welcome to Office Hours.
Of course, we meet every Thursday
and this is your time to come and get additional support
from myself or your other Prosper Sisters.
It's an opportunity to bring things
that could be questions, concerns,
something you want us to look at.
And it's also a time that I'm intimate
and just sharing what God's putting on my heart.
So we're gonna do a little bit of all of that today.
And I'm so glad you're here.
Those of you who are here live, of course,
it's even better because I can be really specific
to your needs right here, right now.
And you're there to support your other Prosper Sisters.
But those of you that couldn't make it,
I try to make this recording for you.
And of course, it's in the new Prosper Leader member group
on the membership site.
We have a private group.
That's where the replays and things are.
All right, let's start with prayer.
And then I'm gonna answer some questions
and then I'm gonna dive into some things
God's showing me right now.
So Father, I give thanks for this day.
I give thanks for the Prosper Leader members
and this community that you've called together,
this group of women to link arms,
carry each other across the personal finish line.
As we love each other, support each other,
pray for each other.
I don't believe there's ever been a more important time
for a community.
So thank you, Father, for drawing us together.
I invite you to speak.
I ask Lord that you just open our spiritual senses
that we clearly hear you, feel you, know you, perceive you,
and how you're working in this season.
I ask that you raise up the Prosper Sisters
to absolute new heights, new heights of love,
new heights of confidence, new heights of power,
new heights of influence, new heights of impact,
new heights of wisdom.
I pray you'll raise them up into strategic positions
that you will bring together all the gifts
that you've been placing inside of them.
I ask you to fan those gifts right now.
I ask you to break off all lies of the enemy.
And I ask that you speak to them clearly for this season
and their divine assignment.
Let the words of my mouth, the meditation of my heart
be pleasing in your sight.
I ask in Jesus' name, amen, amen.
Okay, the overall thought that I'm having for today,
and I'm gonna weave in answering a couple of questions
that I had before I turned the recording on.
The overall thought that I had today,
and I posted this in my LinkedIn today,
and then I posted something yesterday,
both of them tied together.
Today, I posted the fact that the market has changed.
And many of us know that,
and we often see it as bad news
or something to be afraid of.
I'm going to talk about the bad news
and share why I believe this is the good news.
This is your time to shine.
I didn't look it up, but there's a scripture verse
that says the stars shine brightest in the darkest night.
Okay, maybe some of you can find that reference
if you want posted in the chat.
But this is what, this was the visual God was giving me
as I was praying today,
is that I believe it's gonna get dark, much darker.
It's already dark, I believe it's gonna get darker.
And I believe that this is the chance,
this is the moment that God has been preparing you for.
I believe everything that's happened in your life,
you've been through desert and wilderness,
you've been tried, you've been tested,
you have overcome and are overcoming traumas.
You have been going deeper with God,
you've been receiving wisdom.
All of this has been stored up
and it's like an energy vault that there's lots of.
of energy that's building and I believe that God is releasing you in this season.
I believe across prophetic words.
There is a word that this is a new season and in this season, everything that has happened
to you so far has prepared you for this moment.
If you manage your mind, you allow your mind to be renewed so that you do not get caught
up in the funk and you have courage, like the Bible talks to Joshua, be bold, be courageous.
So it's going to require a managing of your mind and it's going to require a courageous
pressing forward when others are pulling back.
We saw a little version of this with COVID in 2020 with the lockdowns and I believe we're
going to see some big challenges coming again.
And so during that time, there was two groups of people.
There was those who pulled back in fear and there was those who boldly advanced, okay?
And they managed their mind and they saw opportunity in the fear.
And I believe this is the season that we're in.
I believe there's some bumpy ride ahead over the next, you know, six to 18, 24 months.
And we're going to all have that option.
And it's really, it's really powerful.
I mean, I see within Prosper, it was one of the most prosperous times.
I mean, look at everything that was born, Prosper TV, Prosper membership site, my Prosper
website, like so many things were born during that season, right?
And I believe that this is another example.
I see this, many of you know, I'm a salsa dancer and I see this with how the DJs played
it out.
The DJs that pulled back during COVID have still not recovered.
They've never fully recovered.
The DJs that found new and innovative ways to serve the people.
And there's the key word, new and innovative ways to serve the people.
So here you have lockdown and you had a group of people that dances, their social dances,
their mental dances, their health, and all of a sudden it's taken away from them.
And the DJs that were creative, the restaurants that were creative, Hey, let's take this outside.
Suddenly parking lots became salsa venues, parks became salsa venues.
Parking spots became restaurant, you know, table seating, and they even made it romantic
out there.
And so they took a need of a people and in the middle of fear, they expanded and met
that need.
And I believe that's where we will and are again, we will be even more so.
And we are right now.
So in the darkest night, I believe this is where God's calling you to shine.
And so I wrote today that the market has changed and there's bad news and there's good news.
So I've talked to you all about this.
You're well-educated in this.
I've said, you know, one of the things is customers have lost trust.
Promises were made that were not kept.
72% of customers say that they're less trusting of companies.
So they're buying differently.
They're buying based on no like and trust.
So the good news of that is that this is your opportunity to build relationships, to
build trust.
I put another statistic, which was 86% of customers prefer to buy from brands they know
like and trust.
So the consumers are now buying based on values.
They're buying based on commonality, right?
I'm just giving you one example.
You can read all of these.
What does that mean?
This is your opportunity, especially as a Christ follower, as a believer, as a passionate
God lover.
This is your opportunity to shine.
This is not the time to try to be all, you know, vanilla, politically correct vanilla.
This is the time to stand out and boldly share what God has put in your heart, boldly release
the gifts God has placed in you.
This is the season for that.
And so your relationship.
with customers will be much more bonded, much deeper,
because it's not just going to be a buy-sell agreement.
It's going to be a merging of values, a collaboration,
a bringing together of vision.
And so, yes, I see in the chat,
it tells me to be building relationships locally
could be one of the most important things.
Yes, this is the season.
So when I say, when everybody else talks about the problem,
hey, you as a prosperous sister, you as a Christ lover,
a God lover, a passionate believer, this is your season.
Forget about the problem, focus on the solution.
So like I said, it's going to require you
managing your mind.
You can't get caught up in it.
You can't afford to be lost in the news.
You can't afford to be swept away.
You're being deliberately distracted.
There's all kinds of false flags.
There's all kinds of things to stir you up
and create angst or depression or fear.
It sells, it keeps you in bondage.
No, no, no, not for you as a prosper leader.
You're being groomed up to do something bigger
and more important.
This is your season to really shine.
So yes, this is your opportunity to build relationships.
This is your opportunity to establish collaborations.
So one of the questions before we started was,
how does collaboration work?
Well, one of the things I always think is win, win, win.
That's all.
Create that box, win, win, win, okay?
So let's say the example that was brought to me
has three parts.
We could make it four.
If I say win, win, win, win,
meaning add glorifying God, okay?
So win, win, win.
So first of all, your person that would be your client,
and sometimes this is a double whammy,
like in your case,
we've got a company we wanna collaborate with
and that company has employees.
So now you've got a double client
because it's the company that's inviting you in.
So you have to know what are the needs of that company,
what's really important to that company.
You gotta create a win for the company.
The company, however,
is going to be having you work with its clients
or its employees or its 1099 consultants, whatever.
So that's who you're serving.
They have different needs.
So let's just take a company and let's just say, okay,
what would a company really want?
Well, a company wants less absenteeism,
better performance, less sick time, less turnover, right?
So think about a headache.
What's the headache for the,
let's say the HR of the company.
What's their headache?
You wanna make sure you're really addressing that
and you're in your presentations
that you're speaking to that,
how the company is going to benefit.
You've got that built in win, okay?
You're also building the win to who you're serving,
which is different, okay?
And then we're building the win for you.
You're called to prosper, so you're gonna win.
And of course you wanna create that God is glorified.
So you're building a framework
and the beautiful thing is this is custom
and it's brand new for everyone.
There's no, it's your opportunity to say,
Holy Spirit, give me the creative way to do this.
Now, I'll give you an example from a client
that is similar to the collaboration question.
And in this case, she was a health coach
and she wanted to get into health coaching corporately.
And she had an opening to get into a company
that had traveling salespeople.
And many had proposed health coaching to the company
but they had not yet adopted it or hired it.
She had an opportunity to present.
So we built the presentation first for them.
What do they want?
Like I mentioned, what do they need?
What's their now problem?
That's always your question.
What's their now problem right now?
What are they facing?
And then, and there's a lot of change for HR
that people less wanna go to work.
They more, they got a taste of it.
They wanna work from home.
There's a lot of change.
Anyway, you address their now.
problems. In her case, in the past, what had been presented was putting a health program
at the office, at the corporate, and so the traveling salesman could come there and get
health coaching and blah, blah, blah. Well, I immediately saw, looking at a now problem,
those traveling salespeople are away from their home. Do you think that they want to be away
even more? Do they want one more thing to pile on their plate, or is this just going to feel like
the company's putting one more thing on them? Are they going to see it of value, or are they
going to see it as one more thing taking them from their wife and kids? We created something
different. So we created the win. How will the company benefit the corporation? We created the
win for the traveling. What if we create a system that they can do on the road, so they don't have
to lose any time, but they can have energy, make more sales feel better, get sick less often,
have more mental clarity, the things that they want to hyper perform and feel good.
And we made her top package that actually she, and she was working locally, she actually had
her top ticket item, high ticket item, was to go into the home. And so now she was working with the
wife and the kids, and even doing refrigerator revamps, cupboard revamps, all the things that
she could do in the home, involve the kids that they enjoy, maybe a cooking thing together.
And so now, instead of taking them away from their family, not only were they getting health
benefits, but they were brought together. Look at all the wins. The company wins, the traveling
salesperson wins, the family wins, she gets more high ticket items because it's appealing, she wins,
and I believe God is glorified. So when you're creating collaborations, you want to create, you
want to think win, win, win, win, win. And so you build that into your presentation before you ever present,
just walk through that. How can each person win? And if you do that, I guarantee you, you're going
to get more sales, and your profits are going to go up, and the appreciation and what you do
is going to feel better. I'll answer more in the mastermind if there's some specific questions, but
hopefully that answers your question. I also want to talk to another question that came up that was
more personal, and we've talked about it beforehand, the Prosperous Sisters are going to be
praying, but what do you do when the ground underneath you is being shaken? And I believe that
not only are hard times coming, but it's causing all kinds of shaking, okay? And for some, it's shaking
in the area of health, and so there's a lot of people getting health news, diagnosis, all that
kind of stuff. It's also being shaken in relationships and family. When everything
is being squeezed, the economy is being squeezed, so people are really feeling the pinch to pay
their bills, and job loss, and cut and pay, and AI taking jobs, and more being
demanded, like there's a lot of squeeze going on, right? And what happens when you get squeezed?
Well, what you've been building on the inside is what comes out. So what I want to say is that this
is a season to walk in more grace, more forgiveness, and not react, but respond. This is a season to
not neglect yourself. So I know that because of the season and the high calling that I'm
called to, and I believe you're called to, that nothing can be neglected, meaning from the time I
open my eyes, I have to have a gratitude practice and invite the Holy Spirit right there before
anything can happen in the day. I know I can't afford to mess around. I go straight, I mean, I go
in and I splash my face with cold water, and I love on my dog, and then I go straight to nourishing my
body, and I do that with drinks, okay? For starter, not alcohol drinks, right? But I have, I start
with either a hydrogen water or a green drink to detox and feed my body. I take supplements for my
mind to have absolute clarity of mind. So I'm doing these things. I go from the hydrogen water
to the green drink.
to the red drink, to be sure that I'm showing up.
I go straight from there with my drink.
And then I am having a couple of things.
I'm meditating.
I'm in the word.
I love the passion translation in this season, so much love.
So I am being fed in the word, prayer, meditation.
I am focused on my goals.
You've got to write down your goals every single day.
Write them down.
Write them in different ways.
I'll write them.
Sometimes I write them in the form of an affirmation.
Sometimes I write them in breaking down.
So let's say $100,000 a month, where's that going to?
Sometimes I break it into subcategories,
like let's say $100,000 a month.
Or if you haven't made your first six figures for you,
it might be $10,000 a month.
And then breaking that down, what's it going to?
Is it going to getting you debt free?
Is it going to the home, the retreats you want to buy?
Is it going to, what is it?
What is it going to?
Traveling, your vacations.
So you've got to be writing down your goals every single day.
And of course, you're using, oops,
just knocked my headphones out.
Moving my hands so much, knocked my headphones out.
The Prosper Daily Plan.
You've got it all written down so that you
are not losing your day.
You're so clear on what matters, what's
the important things you're going to work on that day.
So if you haven't gotten your Prosper Daily Plan
or you haven't pulled it out lately, get back to that.
I'm doing it every single day.
This is so important.
So it's going to be a season when
you're going through all of that to not be
moved by your circumstances.
But this is your opportunity to move your circumstances.
So it's seeing the good in all of this.
So I put an example, customers have lost trust.
I put an example, AI is transforming.
So a lot of people are scared of AI.
And rightly so.
There's things I'm not excited about,
but those are things out of my control
and I'm not going to give them energy.
As long as I have it as a tool, I'm
going to use it to serve even more.
So I'm going to continuously to hone my skills,
save 15 to 20 hours a week, and be able to do
what I do in phenomenal ways.
So this is your opportunity to shine.
This is the opportunity, I believe,
that your faith, your love, and allowing
God to demonstrate miracles.
If there was ever a season that in the marketplace
you're offering to pray for people,
if there was ever a season when you're
offering to bring healing to people, lay hands on people,
and let God move through you to bring healing,
if there was ever a season for you to prosper and teach
other people to prosper, if there was ever
a season to stand in leadership and teach others
to stand in leadership, if there was ever
a season to model what it is to speak boldly
and to not walk in fear, if there was ever
a season to manage your mind and renew your mind
and teach other people to do the same,
if there was ever a season to walk in peace
and be able to say to the storm, peace, be still,
this is the season.
Prosperous sisters, this is the time for you to shine.
This dark sky that's gonna get darker, I believe,
is gonna be brighter for you.
You will shine with God's love.
God will shine through you in ways
that you've never had the opportunity.
Remember, the greatest multiplication in the church,
in personal lives, is during times of testing and trial.
The greatest multiplication happens.
This is your opportunity.
Remember, the greatest share of the wealthiest people
happen during the Great Depression, okay?
It happens during the crunches, okay?
It's when God allows us.
So what I want you to be paying attention to
in this season is consistency.
I want you to be very clear.
This is never a time right now to be wishy-washy.
This is not the time to say, I'm not good enough,
I'm not worthy, I don't know enough,
I'm too old, I'm too fat, I'm too,
this is not the season for that.
I'm gonna ask that you make the God-given.
choice that you will not walk in that you have the ability to choose and you have the power of God to choose.
So, one of the things I would love for you to do. So this is, this was yesterday so if you look at two posts you'll get a lot of what I'm saying, today's and yesterday's.
Go ahead and mute Emily. Okay, so I want you to see the consistency in what's happened in your life so far. I want you to see the golden thread of what God has done in and through you.
And so I did an exercise, you can see my example on LinkedIn, I don't have time right now, but I went through the top five successes in my life, and I went through what I learned from each one what God was showing me and how it was propelling me forward.
This consistency will open you to remembering your vision, your goals, dreams, and desires, who you've been positioned to be, who you've been equipped to be, what you've been prepared, everything that's happened in your life has prepared you for this moment.
That's the message I want you to get. Everything that's happened. Yes, the trials, the traumas, the divorces, the bankruptcies, the addictions, the hardships, the desert seasons, the depressions, the anxieties, everything that you've gone through has prepared you for this moment.
All of that cumulative is what God is going to use to propel you and advance you forward.
This is your season to rise. This is your season to make a demand on your faith, make a demand on Christ in you.
I shared the story of the woman with the issue of blood for 12 years, and it felt like she'd exhausted all her resources. Her bank account was empty. Her health was at a low time. She was despised. She couldn't go in public. She was considered unclean.
Nothing worked with doctors. Everything that she had tried had failed, but she managed her mind. She changed her self-talk and said, if I can only touch the hem of his garment, I shall be healed.
And then she took action. Now, she couldn't run to Jesus. She didn't have a personal introduction to Jesus. She didn't have a relative or an in road. She was despised. The truth is she had to crawl to get to Jesus. She had to be kicked and dust in her face.
She had to crawl, and she caught him from behind. Keep in mind, Jesus wasn't going toward her. She had to put a demand on her faith, and she had to take action against all odds when she had no money, when she was despised.
She had to take action against all odds, one crawl, one knee, one hand, until she could just barely reach what she had been envisioning and what she'd been imagining, and she touched it, and she was healed.
And what was interesting is that she made a demand. She pulled the virtue out of Jesus. She literally sucked the energy right from him. He wasn't coming to her to give it like he normally would. She did that.
I'm saying for you in this season, you're going to make a demand on yourself. Everything that you've been through, you're going to say, none of this is going to be wasted. It's like when someone gets the power, like, let's say, mad, you know, Mothers Against Drunk Drivers, right?
You take that pain, you take that loss, you take that horror that happened to you, and you go and you create something good to serve everyone else with that. God is calling you right now to take everything you've been through, every good and perfect gift that's placed inside of you, every sermon you've heard, every worship, every prayer, everything you've written down,
and God is calling you to make a demand on that and take action to be that bright star in this dark night.
Okay, so it's a cumulative of being clear on yourself.
who you are and what God has done with you and like we talked about in the last call, a cumulative
of being very clear on who you serve and what their needs are and how to create a solution
to a problem they have right now and create consistency from the very beginning of the
customer journey where they first find you and you first show up. You keep your message consistent,
you know who it's for, you know what it's about, you stay consistent, you show up consistently
and you bring them into your ecosystem. We've talked about the miracle hour posting every day
showing up. I have a new in my prosper daily planner, I have a new thing I'm doing
and you can see it, I use it but on the I will, I will, I will which are the declarations,
I have an acronym GAS right now, so G-A-S, so the G is grow, I will grow, you've got to grow
in this season, I will grow and I have dash, you know, I will read, I will meditate, I will pray,
I will turn my my car into a rolling university everywhere I go, I'm learning, I will attend
courses and advance myself, so the G of GAS is I will grow, the A, I will act, I will act
and that's, I will market, I will follow up, I will post daily, I will act and then the S, the S is
show up, I will show up and this is the season of you showing up, so showing up in every way,
creating micro content, doing launches, I put in the chat and I'll email it to you as well,
the link, I am doing a five-day series called Your Prosperity Formula and it's about how
right now do you build, scale, grow a faith-based, prosperous, both of those, catch that, faith-based,
prosperous business in this market right now, we are going to cover that in depth, five days,
9 a.m pacific standard time every day, starting on the 24th, there'll be a master class, a two-hour
master class on the 29th, okay, I'm going to pause to make time to really let this digest for those
of you who are alive, those of you listening to the recording, we'll see you live at the next call.
