Want to talk Louisville sports? Special guest, Ty Spalding, publisher of CardinalSports.com joins us to hit five hot topics. First up, the departure of Chris Mack and some background outsiders may not have heard before. What contributed to the change in direction? Spalding provides us with the insight we've been looking for and his thoughts on where the program is headed. Next up in our all too brief conversation that is chocked full of goodies we look at how Scott Satterfield's topsy-turvy ride. Is Louisville football beginning to get back on track or is Satterfield's seat 'warm'? Watch This Interview And More On YouTube There's been a big leadership gap in the athletic department and it's led all the way to the top of the school. Does that need to change? Will it change? This leads to the rumors of Tom Jurich returning as AD. It may be a money talks and, well, you know how that goes. Will the next leaders cede their control of sports at the school? Louisville Jeff Walz has done some amazing things with the women's basketball program over the past few years.

So he just keeps his fingers and lots of pots. My mom always told me that you ask the busy person. If you want something to get done.

So that's why he's on here because he knows has he knows how to be productive, focused and build a legacy of things that are meaningful to him. So go ahead Sydney let us know a little bit about where you came from maybe childhood how you grew up, and how you made that transition to where you are now and where you're headed.Well, thanks, man.You make me sound so you know this and you know, to be honest with you, I just wake up and go to work but you know, I grew up in small-town America man, I grew up in Eastern Kentucky and a little town called Mount Sterling, about 45 minutes east of Lexington, Kentucky, which generally that is it's you know, it's been about an hour and a half southeast of Cincinnati is where I grew up. And it was about a five by five like one of those five light towns you know, and you know, and most of my friends man from back there still live in Mount Sterling going to live their entire life, you know, and do whatever they do, and there's nothing wrong with that. That just wasn't the journey, you know, that I grew up and I knew at a very young age, you know, Sports, and I was very, very competitive. Like I hated to lose it anything a losing argument, I always had to get my last word. And that was just part of my personality. And you know, and from a young age, I just knew I was different. Like, for whatever reason I thought differently. I didn't do the things that a lot of my friends did. You know, and that was like, I guess the biggest thing growing up that I recognize about myself was that I was different. I didn't like doing the same old things I didn't like, I like to be rebellious. I didn't like to, like, you know, follow the rules like and do everything, like a cookie-cutter. I hated that to this day. I hate that. And like, you know, you know, that was growing up. I knew that that was something but I didn't know what it was, you know, at age 12. We moved out a small town my dad got, you know, another job and we ended up moving to a suburb of Louisville, Kentucky, which at the time was like New York, right? I mean, like, that was like the biggest thing I'd ever seen, which is hilarious because I live in Dallas now, like in downtown Dallas. You know, Fort Worth is like three times the size of global and it's like the baby of like Dallas, right? So it's got Funny. And then you know, I lived there until I went to the University of Louisville. And you know, a big reason you know, I got into tech was I'll you know, I always enjoyed it like always enjoyed technology and reading about it and stuff like that and even in college but I want to in college I want to be an athletic director. And when you get into that whole, like, you know, sports administration, sports marketing type deal, it's a very competitive industry. And, you know, at the time, not so much anymore, but at the time, the University of Louisville had a very great just athletics program, athletics administration, they had an athletic director named Tom Jurich that was said to be the best athletic director in the United States time, since he's made some mistakes and it's no longer there. But, you know, like, I wanted to be just like him, you know, he took University a little bit too sad all the way to the Big East, which was one of the biggest conferences, you know, in the nation at the time, you know, within just a matter of like five years and that was unheard of, and I want to be just like him. So my senior year, when I was I got a bachelor's degree in sports administration, we had to do a six-month internship. So I ended up going to the D to school in Louisville, which is called Bellarmine University and I just didn't know what I was going to be getting into. And I walked in to do an internship. And I was sitting in the office of the athletic director and they, his assistant just got me up and walk me to the sports information office and said here, they need help, just do whatever they need. And ironically sports information athletic communications, so that's websites and anything digital rights or websites radio show all that fun stuff. So I and just adequate incidents, they are in the process of building a new website for the athletic sport. So my was tasked mainly throughout the year to not only help build but also maintain the website which was a WordPress site. And I just fell in love with everything about it. And that was kind of how I got started. And then I, you know, got a graduate assistantship down in Miami, Florida, went down there and got my masters and then realized very early on I was going to make a lot more money working for myself because of how much money I was seeing that was coming into businesses and the ad agency that I was working for than I ever would in the athletic world or working for someone else. And I kind of just started building at the time WordPress sites for like 10 grand for people down in Miami for Weebly and Wix was a thing and, and, you know, and that was kind of just how I started working for myself. My first year I made like, 130 hundred and 40 grand. You know, I never kind of look back and you know, I've been in digital ever since. And, you know, I got into the legionary stuff about four or five years ago, and, you know, and kind of just catapulted me into what's going on today. So Iknow that that's awesome. curious, what point do you feel like and I don't know maybe it was always this but sounds like beginning of your passion kind of started like you wanted to be in sports because you want to be in sports, but at some point, it shifted from Sports to and this is not a negative thing. So don't think I'm accusing me of shifted from Sports to money, or at least that you could get more money somewhere else. What about getting more money became more attractive to you?Um, so, you know, I didn't grow up with a lot, you know, I mean, not that we were poor but you know, we were definitely you know, or even really blue-collar but we're just, you know, we were, I guess middle class very middle class you know, and and, you know, so I didn't grow up with like, lavishly or anything like that, but like one thing I do like, remember is that like, you know, always remembered like, especially with people like I remember like people that would have money I guess I would just be surrounded by it. And you know, I started watching Shark Tank very early on, you know, I was one of those that started watching shark tank and season one back in like, oh five or something like, oh, seven I think grow eight and, and, and I just remember, like, read, you know, I read a lot as a child. That was something my mom made me do and I just remember it was a never liked look at money as, like this, this great thing I was taught that money was nothing more than something of leverage in something, a resource to get something or to gain something greater to gain something that you want. And there's a lot of resources, right? So like, it was never really like, hey, money is the only thing I'm after it was, Hey, I can use money to help more people as a resource, or I can leverage money to get more things to help more people like that's as an entrepreneur, like, you know, there's this whole thing about this American dream, what's this American dream, right? As an entrepreneur, I'm leveraging 90% always what I get to try to gain a bigger, something for my calls. So like my highest intention is always what I'm after the businesses that I'm a part of is just my tools to achieve that higher intention. I intend to help a thousand people with guns in their hands and, you know, choose life and become successful, so they can impact other people. Tiffany's is too, you know, empower a million women, whatever we do business In life has to fit with that highest intention. If it does not, we don't do it. You know, and that's just kind of how we live.Yeah, no, I love that. That's, that's what I thought I didn't have this conversation with them previously. But that's what I thought. And that's why I asked the question the way I did because I know that money is not the end goal. And I think that sometimes people get stuck in what they think is the way to achieve their, their objective, right? your highest intention help people right, but that could be helping somebody as a Walmart greeter, right? guiding people where to find their food. It could be like sports, somebody working in the sports industry, it could be smiling at someone on the street, right? It doesn't matter how that goal, that highest intention comes to pass. What matters is that it comes to pass. And so being willing to shift or alter your method or your tool, your current tool of use, to achieve that people need to start looking at there, what they're doing and how they're providing value in life as an as a current. or part of a tool, a tool shed to achieve their highest intention. I think that the highest intention, for me, at least in the purpose of this podcast is to help people identify, okay, how do they identify their identity? How did you identify your highest intention, Cindy?Man, I had a gun in my hand. You know, I mean, like for me, you know, I, you know, back in 2016 owned another company that was a software company. You know, I'm a software developer, as a kind of by trade. That's kind of what you want to classify anything already, kind of, I guess the most that I do. I just enjoy software and technology. And we were bad white-labeled software or helped develop and not have developed but I helped a white-label software for a private label online ordering for restaurants. So in Louisville, I was like, I want to be an entrepreneur. This was one of that high ticket, high ticket means low ticket High, Low ticket, high volume type deals, right. So very much like credit card processing. You know, it was a special Friction model, right? So like, I might get paid 50 or 60 bucks from a restaurant a month, but it's a monthly subscription model, right? I'm playing the long game I'm building. Anyway, we had done that. And I had gotten it up to where I built it pretty big. You know, I've gotten a lot of restaurants under my belt, we were making a few thousand dollars a month in residual income, things were great, you know, I could sit on what I had, and it was awesome, but I wanted more. And it was like a little what Tom girl pub and embrace and all that wasn't there yet. So I had the right market. So I had a credit card processor approached me that was an ISO and he owned his own, you know, ISO office and partnered up with me, he was like, Hey, man, we'll do this when I'm 5050. So I was just ignorant and I wanted to grow and I was willing to at the time, I didn't realize to sell my soul to grow. So he promised me all this stuff. He was going to just give me his book of business. He was going to finance me so we could grow and all this stuff and we ended up partnering up he ended up getting two people that ended up being some of the worst clients ever had. And he did and he was like freaking pulling teeth to get money out. the guy even to pay me money, my own money from the company.And it just ended up being a horrible experience. But then about a year later,you know, I'm trying to figure out how to get out this deal. I freaking can't stand it. But I'm locked into this deal. And you know, and I'm just like, not the type that's going to like, you know, I don't screw people over. You know, it's like the honest people don't ever think that they're going to get screwed, right? It's the beat of the that aren't honest, that you know, always were thinking that they're going to get screwed because they think of what they might do. Right. So like, you know, I don't even know what to do. I'm going to lawyers and talking to them. Come to find out. You know, my ex-wife or my wife. Time had been traveling to Boston she said she had she was training to get a promotion at her job. Well, she had met a guy up there I didn't know about it and the Saturday so I get home and the Saturday that I got I get home from work and I get on every I get a call. Sorry. I don't remember the guy's name. I just remember like him saying, Hey, I didn't know she was married half sorry. And she's married. And, you know, it's all I remember and you know, you know, I don't know how much admit they're married now and have kids but, you know, that happened and I freaked out you know, but you know and I'm like freaking out cuz I just lost my wife and I confronted her and she denies it you know what she's making all these threats and I'm just like, I'm done no out now going through this divorce, come to find out and had today, I get a call from one of my first customers. She's been with me for like since you know, my first couple of weeks of doing the business. He's like, Hey, man, like not a big deal. And it was probably just a mistake, but I noticed that you build me like a few times last month. And I know it's probably just a glitch or something. Not a big deal, man. Could you just like, you know, take a look and they give me my money back. I didn't know I thought maybe it was just a glitch in the payment processing or something. I come to find out my ex-partner had been billing people multiple times and then embezzling money into his accounts. And when I follow the money, he was like, you know, billing the people one time putting it in our account, but then billing them two to three times. And then just funneling that money into his account and not telling anybody about it, which is, you know, embezzlement. That's a fraud. You know, once I found out how I'm stuck. I'm 5050 with this guy and I'm in the lawyers. how can how in the world can I get my name off of this? And there was nothing I can do. I ended up having to surrender and lost the company. So now I've lost my wife, my house, my car company, I'm living at home with my parents at about $330 which I lost about a week and a half on weed and liquor. And, you know, now I'm legitimately broke. My parents are paying for every meal amount. I'm 29 years old and my parents in 2016 and man, that's rock bottom and Christmas Eve 2016. I got a gun and put in my mouth You know, and not something I tell people is I'll never forget what gunpowder smelled like man ever. And, you know, I got it. It was crazy. I got an email was autoresponder emails. I never forget it. And you know, I was so hot and drawn. I don't even remember feeling anything. And just remember I got an email and said you know don't give up yet 2017 is going to be your best year yet and for whatever reason something triggered emotionally my body up through the gun up against the wall and I made a decision that night and ever since that made that decision I've just been on this journey of life just 100% how many people cannot help and ever since then I've been able to help off under 38so you know, that's kind of how I love that so that's that those are the type of stories that really really are going to have the highest impact how taking somebody through an experience I'm sitting here thinking oh my gosh, I cannot imagine dealing with a lot of people talking about rockbottom you know what I mean? Like it's marketing talk, right? I mean they stretch things I mean I'm not saying that everybody does it and I'm not saying this one that one but you know I live that you know like in and you know, I came to Dallas because Dallas was the place to be and you know, I wanted to promote basically restart live sold everything I owned, moved here with like 3300 bucks to my name figured it out. You know A lot more people, when they get put in those situations, sometimes they just need to, like, put themselves into almost a state of shock. Because that if I figured out who I was in six months, you know, and, you know, it's like what Tony Robbins says in one of his videos, you know, you know, you gotta know how to burn your boats, you know, because when people are putting the position of either going to die or succeed and tend to succeed, so sometimes you just gotta burn your boats and put yourself in that position literally.Yeah, and not not not to go as deep like go to the suicide option, right? But we need to have something that kind of shocks us to really identify what that legacy is because once we find our highest intention, then there's really nothing that's going to stop us on that pursuit my and I'll share with you mine and my as far as my intent, my highest intention really, I've probably three of them. But first and foremost is to save marriages from domestic violence, divorce, suicide, anxiety, depression, malnutrition. That's like the number one goal of mine and everything that I do that's my focus. And then secondary to that is to coach and lift the homeless. I've met too many people who just like yourself went from a thriving business to broke, jacked up on drugs and alcohol because they just can't fathom the change in what just happened in such a short period. And some people get out of it like you, but there's a lot of people who still are on the streets, who are have already accomplished incredible, magnificent things in their life. And with a little bit of a belief and a little bit of resource. They could go on to create even moreincredible a little bit of hope. I mean, I think the best thing man just having someone believe in you know, a mentor of mine, you know, work with you know, once told me that, you know, you obviously you are your environment, right so like if you're around people People in your environment that don't believe in you. What are you doing? You know, I mean, like, you know, you have to be, you know, I know this is beating on a dead horse, right, and everybody talks about this. But, I mean, you have to take a step back and evaluate who's in your environment. And it's not just having people in your environment that validate you, it's having people in your environment that, you know, hold you accountable, and that scare the crap out of you when you're talking to them or you're with them. Because you know, that they're looking at you and you know, that they're, you know, seeing what you're doing, and seeing the decisions that you're making and seeing if you are getting up and doing the work. You know, and like, those are the people that you know, I got a couple of people like that in my life, they scare the living crap them. Because I know if I don't do what I say I'm going to do, they're going to call me out. And you know, like, a lot of people in your life to, you have to, you know, you just you have to, you know, the famous Tai Lopez, you know, stuff when a lot of people make fun of him, but he's an extremely smart guy. You know, He always would talk about in his content about how you have to have 33% of the people that you're mentoring 33% of the people on your same level that you're masterminding with, and then 33% of the people that you're being knit toward from, and there's a lot of merit behind that.Yeah, absolutely. I know that in my life. That's pretty much where it is. I've introduced myself and got to the point where I'm leading a decent amount of people I'm masterminding with people, and then just out of, I will say dumb luck. I don't think it's dumb luck. I think it's intentionally putting myself in situations that scare me. But I've been able to meet people who are on the edge of billionaires or if not billionaires, right? And sometimes when you're just when you're hanging around people too much that you're mentoring, then you think you've got to figure it out. You think that you're going somewhere, and then you go, just have a conversation with some of these people. It's interesting. I find it interesting because a lot of these people that I've met with who are on that level that's just like everyone there so completely messed up drunk, like, just out of their face drunk. Yeah, even at that level when they've taken down all of their, their inhibition all their drive for like they just got plastered even at that stage because of how intentional of human beings they are and the muscles that they've trained just to react. And just like out of subconsciousness they just act the way they're supposed to. You start having a business conversation with them, you start talking about goals or whatever they are on point. You might have to remind them occasionally where we're at in the conversation, but they could deliver a speech or oratory or something like just amazing with pure gold information. Even though they're so like stumbling around drunk and they know I mean, it's reflective of thewhole say again, know what that's called. Go sign that it's called habit that's called an anchor.So like, you have something in your mentor in your brain, right so consciously that anchors those things and then you also have triggers, right? So what I look you know and Tiffany she'll freak in like go into the whole nerdy side healthy one, but um, you know, she has, you have anchors in your brain, right? So an anchor, like, if you wanted to talk to me about like, marketing, right, organic online marketing, that's an anchor, like that's anchored in my brain. So it's an I have a trigger that you're going to ask a question and then I have anger and that response to that question. So like, you know, there's a lot of like understanding like, you know, Simple NLP languages feel felt found if you've ever heard that. That Simple NLP language, so like, understand how, you know, understand how you feel so sympathy, that's emotional sympathy. You know, you understood understanding and then you have people, other people that have felt the same Wait, whether it's you or other customers, so that means that that's not an us versus them mentality. It's saying it's okay. Other people are with you. And they felt the same way, which then when you go into found, it's like these people found that way you can connect to find that way too. So it's helping the brain make the connection of this is where I, this is where I'm at, this is where I want to be. And it's helping knock down those objections in their brain and just make them they can actually see the story in their head of them, owning a business or of them, you know, scaling their business or them running ads on Facebook, and Instagram and getting leads, you know, whatever it is, you know, it's literally just, they're out where they are right now. You know, your core messaging and whatever you're doing in life is when you're persuading anybody is there at a place they are there. They want to get to a place B, how do they get to place B and how do you help them, see them getting the place to be through whatever it is that you say? Or whatever stuff you have, you know, or whatever content you give. It's all it is you I mean, you're not trying to ever sell anybody you're trying to get someone to get to a buying decision and get them to decide on you. Yeah,yes or no, it doesn't matter what the decision is you just need a decision. Actually. Yeah, I would say that's the difference, in my opinion, because people accuse me of being a salesman. I'm like, oh, man, at times in my life, I've been a salesman, but I consider a salesman. That not that the end goal is different. But the motivation, right, so I would consider somebody who's selling or a salesman, as somebody who's going through the process with the intention or with the expectation or thought of what's in it for me, and the loser doesn't care what's in it for them. The closer is saying, okay, it's my job, it's my duty to help you come to a decision, okay? And to be able to close out this conversation so you don't have to think or worry about it anymore. And the closer I can maintain the mindset and the emotion and the orientation of what's, what is best for this person sitting in front of me, and how can I better serve them. Sometimes that means I'm the right fit. Sometimes it means it's not, but I must make sure that they know by the end of this conversation, whether I am or not,absolutely, and knowing and you know, being, you know, understanding language and understanding language patterns and how the brain works, right. So like the brain works in a buying decision, it first makes its decision by emotion and then it backs it up by logic. So like, everything, every buying decision that's made is first made by impulse. So, you know, if you understand how that works, you know, you understand that game. See, everything in our life is a game if you look at everything in our life is a game and you're in sales or you've been in sales or you know, I don't consider it sales, but you know, you're in helping people professional friend, that professional friendship, you know, world, but no, you know, you know what I mean? Like, you know, if, you know, if you just get them to a point of like, Listen, I'm, you know, helping you get to where you want to go in your planning playing the game, and you're just executing what you got to execute. You just got to look at what It takes a real big step back, look at the 40,000-foot view, look at what you got to do and don't just react, build a plan and then execute. And once you execute on that plan, okay, if it doesn't work, it doesn't work, stop, optimize and then expand. So like Don't, don't get so caught up on like, Oh my gosh, if I go out there and fail, I fail, guess what, you're gonna fail, you're gonna fail again, you're gonna fail, you're gonna fail again. You're gonna fail every day. I feel every day. It's something I mess up something every day, okay, you know. But if I don't rehearse, then I can't read. If I don't rehearse and I can't review and if I can't review and I can't revise and get better. So like, you know, everything that I do every call every podcast episode, I'm on, whatever. It's always a rehearsal to be revised to be reviewed and gotten better later. So like, that's how I look at everything. And like, if you look at life that way, then you're just going to do nothing but then just get 1% better every day. If you get 1% better every day, by golly, you're three times three and a half times better at the end of the year then you work at and that's it. Top. Yeah, no,it's awesome. I love it. So how did because often when we go through these major transitions or transformations in our life, there's there are other people who are viewing that transformation, not quite understanding it and out of their love and concern for us is the way I believe it. They will choose to try and dissuade us from our goal or pull us away and say, you don't want to do that. Go get a real job or go do something different. And be safe. Right? How did you silence tell us a story of your biggest naysayer in life and how you were able to silence them?Oh, man, you know, biggest naysayer, man I got you know I mean, I got a lot of people even to this day, you know and my family that you know, whisper you know, I go to family functions and me still to this day, whisper you know, they, they won't talk to me about it because they know that like I don't, you know, you know, I don't. I'm just I don't deal with drama. do my best not to deal with drama. Now. And As well as just you know, not time for and it's time for, you know, and you know, I'm very just, I'm a straight shooter, like, I'm not gonna, like sit here and you know, beat around the bush, I don't do that much stuff anymore. Like, this is what I got, is it something you want to help with or not a man? Like, that's as simple as I am like, you know, I don't, you know, we don't reach out to anybody that doesn't raise their hand at us first. I mean, you know, we're just straight-up with that like, drenched in what we got cool. You're not like good luck, you know? I mean, it's that simple. And I think you know, and I think that you but you know, regardless of that, you get haters, you know, you're always going to get haters in life and God I mean, like, you know, me and Tiffany just be me and Tiffany, you know, because Tiffany's you know, doing so well what she's doing and she's influenced into a lot of people with she's doing it you know, with me and so this we have some great things going on right now with the CBD and you know, and with the new software it's just you know, a lot of great things and a lot of blissful things happening in our lives and you know, people just because they see that are going to hate and they hate because you know, it's me and Tiffany and Tiffany rebel, leverage certain things online to help kind of Boomerang and get more reach or whatever. There are ways that we can do that. And people just don't like it, right? I mean, people just like, well, they're doing something wrong or they're cheating or they're doing something right. You know, it's always about them. And, you know, we get that all the time, man, but I'll never forget a quote. I guess. My biggest naysayer, you guys are enough. But I hope he doesn't listen to this. My biggest naysayer, man. Like to be honest with you, as always, kind of been like my dad, I don't know a bad way. It's just like my dad, my mom, and my dad. Like, I love them. I love them to death and they love the fact that I dream. And to this day, though, it's like I come up me and Tiffany like the CVD you know, it's just a thought, right? to come up with this idea. And you know, we start telling you about this idea. Now, this is what's funny, I'll make it full circle when I'm done. We start telling you about this idea. And they're like, well CVD isn't that illegal? Like you know, cannabis is legal. You know, they don't know they live in the bible belt. You know, they hear cannabis freak out. Bring back the 60s you know and I'll and dancing No dad. Yeah, right. Like you know the, you know, This whole thing and my dad though he loves doing the twist to this day, man, twist and he is he's all about it every wedding and it happens but anyway, we're not doing her like they're just so classic and saying this and you might your parents might have said this or people that were naysayers in your life. It's okay to dream but let's just make sure we be realistic. So I don't want to you know, get our hopes up, you know, and then get hurt. And you know, God I even saying it now like, this makes me freaking cringe because like, I just the whole idea behind participation trophies, makes me want to scream. And like, you know, like, I hear that and I hear nothing more than participation. Like go out there and try it doesn't work. You know, and like, that's just not okay. Like, that's bad language. That's bad. That's a bad culture. That's bad teaching. You know, like I want to, I want my children. When I when we have children. I want my children to be taught that by Giving service and by helping other people, you gain something. It's not always money, but you gain something. And like, I want that to be taught because I mean, let's be real public, you know, school systems right now. public, private, whatever you want to call it. Yeah, I mean, like, It's dangerous. school system right now just doesn't work. And I'm sorry if people don't agree with me, both my sisters are teachers and God bless them. Because, you know, that's one of the toughest jobs in the world. But, you know, just modern teaching doesn't work anymore. I mean, people don't understand how money works. When they get out of school, like they just don't they don't have a basic understanding of how money works. The whole culture is Hey, go work for someone make, you know, make make a salary, you know, work for someone your entire life, help make them money and be done with it, like entrepreneurship has to be chosen in college. It has to be chosen. It's not even like really put out there and most schools don't even offer it so I mean, you know, that's a whole nother conversation and but a school with me man, that's dangerous. You know, like, you know, that's just a really dangerous topic. I feel like the school system right now is a poison system. It is.Yeah, no.True. So how did you silence your dad? How did you help him? or How did you get it has ithas it man was I went out and you know to kind of pull it full circle, you know they go out. And what we're doing in the CBD right is we wanted to invest in CBD. And instead, we decided we get our hands dirty. So we went out there and we're like, we're going to just do an e-commerce store. We're going to get a relationship and invest in a manufacturer. So we did find the best CBD we could find. Ironically, it's in Dallas where we live. So you know, we have a factory and everything here. We'll start you know, full FBA factory tours and the factory, which is cool. So you can come and see where it's made. We have two nurses on staff or pharmacist on staff. So you can ask for recommendations while you're there, go to the pharmacy and get your medicine that gets made on site. And like I said, it's FDA approved facility. So it's cool. And we're like okay, cool. So like, we'll do this CBD, and we're just going to do a store and that we can get our hands dirty. And you know, we had this special deal with the manufacturer, we started telling some of our friends and they want to do it with us. So we want to, you know, so we're like, Okay, well, let's make an offer and see if anybody was interested, we were just honestly trying to get five or six people that wanted to do it with us. And then we'd you know, just, you know, we just have a little marketing group together, mindset marketing training group, and we help do it with them. And all of us can make a little bit of money. And what we thought was going to be five, what we were hoping was going to be five people turned into like, over a, I think we've gotten interested from over like 80 people, Facebook posts, and I think we've gotten a know over 30 people that are initially going to be founding members of it. There's still like another 10 or 15 that we're talking to here, before we start, which we're starting in a couple of days. And it's just cool to see because like we're able to put an opportunity out there where you don't have to hold inventory. You don't have to do anything. And all that and we put all this stuff together and my parents solid, you know my parents saw Let's put this together out of thin air out of a thought, and turn it into money, turn it into leverage it into money, leverage it into a resource. And like a week ago, my mom called me out of the blue and said, Hey, so the CBD thing, we went in on it. Now my mom and my dad and my sisters are doing it with us. So, you know, it's just kind of interesting, you know, like, you know, I saw this and I see it in my head. And just the mere fact that you know, I see it in my head, like, not everybody else can see that, to me, it's normal, it doesn't mean that I'm better than anybody just means that I'm different, right? It doesn't mean difference being bad. It just means I'm different. I'm different, this different, this might different this might be I see these things connect in my head. And then now that we're putting this kind of machine together, other people can see it too. And, and this machine goes off and it helps the world these people being involved in it. So I'm going to be able to get helped with it as well. And you know, I mean, what's the famous thing Brian Tracy, was it Brian Tracy or maybe the zig Zig that said it he said you want to make a million dollars go help a million people. See what happens. And you know, like that's so powerful you know if you get your mindset into the fact that hey, I want to go, help people, the money counts, you know, money is a byproduct. Just a resource along with it.Agree with that, I thinkin my book worldYeah, there's some feedback going on to Oh, yeah, I thinkwe're good. So in my book, nine pillars to fuel your meaningful legacy. That is one of the main was the first section is dealing with how do you overcome the naysayers? And how do you do it out of love and most naysayers in my experience, they just need an example of success. They need to see that as possible because the reason they're naysayers is that they don't want to get their hopes up. They don't want to get crushed themselves. So when you say well, I'll go take the risk. I'll go put myself out there and I'm okay getting crushed. If that happens. Then once I see that nobody got crushed, right, okay, yeah, I'll doit. And so yeah, There's a lot of followers like have you ever heard like the producers and consumers? Yep. Like, you know, like there's going to entrepreneurs, there's a great book out there by a guy that I studied with about a year and a half ago. His name's Alex sharpen, you go to his website, WWE sharp and calm char in. He has a, he has a, he has a book called EBT, which is all about the entrepreneurial personality type. That's kind of what his whole aura is about. Right? He's a business coach. And he, he talks about how the entrepreneurial brain is just wired differently. We're the one for the tribe, or that 1% of the tribe that gets up early and in those and, you know, gets the food for the rest of the tribe. They don't understand us they don't understand that they could never live without us. And like, you know, it's a cool book because it talks about how we as entrepreneurs, you everybody listening to this that you know, wants to get out on their wants to start their business once you know that has that entrepreneurial mind. Instead of just getting things done, it helps you understand how that brain works and how kind of in the jungle how we fit into this world. And like when you can understand it from a high level, man, it just really helps you understand how you fit in and how you're not alone and how you can go and collab with other people who are just like yourself, and turn, you know, turn things into things. I mean, you got to think about it. Everything on this earth was built by somebody who was no smarter than you built. Steve Jobs said that you know, so if everything on this earth was built by nobody who was you know, by somebody who was no smarter than you, then that means that you can build anything in this world. And don't get stuck into this idea that your business can change the world. I would love for someone to tell, you know, steve jobs that tell Jeff Bezos that you know, or tell you to know, what's his name over a Tesla that you know, I mean, like, is a business has the opportunity to change the world. So stop thinking so small because you could change the world to your idea and your thought alone?Yeah, no. I love that. That so how can we if we want to get in touch with you about any of your coachings your your your group coaching CBD whatever it is that whatever you do and how would we get in touch? How can we support you and help you accomplish more and kind of buy into your vision a little bit more?Yeah, man. So, you know, I have some books that they can go get, your audience can go get, they can just go over to www dot better leads box calm and then I give away like five books over there so they can go check that out if they want to do that. I'm going to give you a link like a playlist link that they can check out you know us over there and it's going to be a free kind of like a boot camp on social media for marketing. You know, if they're interested in the CBD, the best thing they can do, you know is they can go to our website, which is www dot holistic freedom dot shop. And there's going to be a tab there and the navigation that's going to be a wholesale opportunity.

And we'll havewe're gonna have all those links in the show notes here. So if you're curious, how can you get more contact with Sydney or his what his I guess his significant other Tiffany, then go do that on social media as well Facebook, Instagram, whatever is going to work best but go look them up it again, it's Sydney Clevenger. So I'm gonna spell that out for you just for those people who can want to Google it. Or I say Google it, but it's not Google it or just in any way, whatever, wherever you want todo it. Yeah, it's good.So 70s, si, D and Ey. And then his last name is Clevenger CLE, the I O, and G AR, but, if you're listening to this, and you have his name in the title of the podcast as well, so definitely go check that out. So or two my favorite parts of the whole episode, this is the last two questions. Well, the last two sections will call them so this is called legacy on rapid-fire. So I'm gonna ask you five questions looking for one word to one sentence answer. Now the first question I asked you, you have to define, you have to go a little bit deeper than just that. The answer that everybody uses the same answer about them a few months ago, I decided okay, we need to be more specific. So I want you to clarify the answer here. But here we go. His legacy on rapid-fire. What do you believe is holding you back from reaching the next level of your legacy today?ego and because a lot of times allow my ego to get away in my vision or my mission, which distracts me and distracts me from being able to delegate and properly take care of my staff as well as my customers.Awesome. What do you believe the hardest thing you've ever accomplished is that todaybeing able to use resourcefulness when I not only didn't have money, but I was negative in my account to be able to go out there and use other resource resources that weren't necessarily money to further my goals. Awesome. What's your greatest success to this point in your life? Being able to help over three years been able to help over 530 people with marketing with being able to help them with marketing and you know, changing their life over something that I was gifted to do.Awesome. And what do you what is one secret you believe contributes most to your success.So, man, not self-discipline, just being able to be being able to take a step forward every day, being conscious and conscious. Instead of getting 1% better every day, because when you continually take one step forward every day, I don't know what it is. But every three or four days or for four or five days, adore shows up or a door opens that you didn't even know is there, sometimes it becomes an opportunity. So, you know, I just make sure to be steadfast head down, as far as you know, as I'm on a mission. And, you know, and as long as you do that every single day and you get 1% better every single day good things happen. Awesome. And then what are one or two books that you would recommend to the feel your legacy audience that either has guided you on your path or have helped you get to where you're at? Um, probably the best book I've ever read is How to Win Friends and Influence People by Dale Carnegie. I know that's a big one. But you know, they have a book that was written in 1936 to still be relevant, you know, 90 years later, and I mean, relevant. I mean, you could read it and never even heard of it before and you could use every tactic in there and it would benefit you today is astonishing. That is just amazing to me. I've read it several times. So that would say that book Another book that I'm, to be honest with you, and it's not because she's my wife, but you know, stop being a selfish bitch by my wife, she wrote it and, you know, I was with her while she was writing it, you know, I was in bed with her and stuff like that we would have pillow talk. And the reason it's been so influential was mainly because of, you know, it shows that you know, at the time, I didn't believe that my aura or my core influence would be able to impact someone especially like her. I really, you know, consider to be someone that I look up to, in a sense, right and to had to show that you know, I was able to impact on her on such a deep level really was impactful for me, but also shows that you know, you can use any resource or gift that you have, but doesn't have to be something that you think it has to be, it can be simply being a good note-taker, it can be doing hair, it can be baking, it can be simply like she talks about in the book, just the mere fact that I trust her and I believe in her every single day and that I support her 100% that means the world to her though, to me, it's a normal thing, to her it means the world and you know, you can really impact and impact Someone just simple things like that. So reading that book is just made me consciously think about how you can impact people in daily life. And I think people benefit from it.Awesome. Love it. This is my absolute favorite part of the episode. Now, the last question. And it's my favorite because I get to pretend that you're dead. So, you know, it's always good, right? No, but, but it condenses down what this whole episode about and the purpose of legacy. And this may be even more pertinent to you because you know, your highest calling, but the idea is if we were to sit around a table six generations from now, so we're talking your great great great great grandchildren are sitting around the table chatting about your life, suddenly they're talking about what you achieved and what you became and why you're still relevant, right? Just like you said, Dale Carnegie's book so relevant Why are you still relevant? What do you want your legacy to be six generations from now?Well, I mean, you know, my kind of tagline is, you know, I live in abundance, right? It's like the Tiffany and I are all about abundance, you know, not scarcity. I think a lot of entrepreneurs, you know, I'm not saying they are, but I'm not saying they do it consciously, I think they just do it because in the entrepreneur, you know, you're surviving, you know, you eat or you don't. And, you know, I think that you know, my whole mantra is we all want to win, we all win. And, you know, if you take a step back and look at that, you know, if everybody is winning around, you guess what you're probably going to. And, you know, the reason that is, is because you live a life of abundance, not a life of, oh my gosh, I gotta get this or I might not eat. So I gotta take from someone else. It's, you know, you live a life, figuring out how everybody can win around you because, you know, putting, you know, I talk about this all the time, like, if you're able to forge something, if you're able to put two people three people together into something and you're able to all go for the common good or go for the common cause. The Commission, it's going to be so much better than not so like, you know, with that comes collaborating and you know, just figuring out how you can work together and not just for someone you know, like, a lot of times if you can figure out a way to work together that will lead into working with someone You know so like, it's never always about you making the sale it's about you helping someone and economically be you send them somewhere else. I've done that many times you know, it's not a good fit for me it's not a good fit. So that would be my best thing, man. Like just understanding that we all win-win, we all win and to have like my great great great, great-grandchildren still singing that phrase, you know, when they're walking around and understanding that they're around you know, if as long as they stay around people who are winningI continue to help those people.Yeah, I love that. Love it. Love it. This is this has been awesome. I'm so grateful that we looked at and hopefully we're all able to stay in contact in the future and work together for some different things we'll talk about as soon as we end this episode, but I'm so grateful for you taking the time to be on this podcast and to share your mission, your vision, and your story. I know it's not always easy for people to get that vulnerable, and I'd encourage you to be okay with your story and be willing to get that vulnerable with people, not us specifically. But you can be a guide and a leader so that other people can feel that, that comfort and being vulnerable about some of their darkest times. Because one thing you know, one of my mentors that with me and Tiffany work with is Nick Marshall silver, you know, and he's up there with like, the Grant Cardones of the world, and he's up there like work, but I have 2 billion or whatever. And, you know, we signed up with him about a year and a little over a year ago,and it's kinda like a lifetime life coach, right. And, you know, into his network, and you know, one of the things that, you know, he preaches is everybody needs to write a book. Why? Because everybody has a story. And I think it's so common that everybody thinks they think about they think the same things that everybody else does. And you know, they don't have a story to tell because they're insignificant know, like, you know, like, you know, if you remember, one of the most random books of all time is the cookbook by Julia Child. You know, that movie. And, you know, she was living in France, and she didn't even speak French that well, couldn't even cook to save her life. The thing is, is that she was that person, that entity that a lot of women were like, She just talked about her experience and then was able to take what was a very difficult thing at the time and turn it in. All she did was make it easy to understand how to cook French, French-style cooking. Put it into layman's term for its kind of like a book for dummies, you know? And, you know, when you think about that, man, I mean, like, it all goes back to it doesn't matter how you contribute as entrepreneurs. And, you know, I think that's just something that people need to need to know is that no matter how you contribute, you're contributing and contributing to the tribe self in the tribe further, it's called and that's whatYeah, no, completely agree.
