DRAWING UPON HER VAST EXPERIENCE, ELENA HAS DEVELOPED HER OWN CURRICULUM TO ASSIST ASPIRING EMPIRE BUILDERS. IN HER BUILD AN EMPIRE COURSE, SHE LAYS THE GROUNDWORK FOR BOTH MEN AND WOMEN AS SHE TRAINS THEM HOW TO CREATE, GROW AND DEFEND AN EXTRAORDINARY CAREER AND MARRIAGE. ADDITIONALLY, SHE MENTORS HUNDREDS OF WOMEN WITH PERSONAL, ONE-ON-ONE COACHING SESSIONS. ELENA’S MOST RECENT ENDEAVOR HAS BEEN TO PARTNER UP WITH EXP REALTY. SHE IS NOW A LICENSED REALTOR WHO PLANS ON BUILDING THE LARGEST REAL ESTATE TEAM ACROSS THE GLOBE HELPING THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE CREATE GENERATIONAL WEALTH THROUGH REAL ESTATE POWERED BY EXP. IF YOU WANT TO BUILD AN EMPIRE WITH ELENA, VISIT: JOIN10XEMPIRE.COM. ELENA HAS BEEN HAPPILY MARRIED TO GRANT SINCE 2004 AND LIVES WITH HER HUSBAND GRANT, THEIR TWO DAUGHTERS, SABRINA AND SCARLETT, ALONG WITH THEIR TWO CATS, CASH AND FLOW IN MIAMI BEACH. TOGETHER THEY HAVE CREATED A REAL ESTATE PORTFOLIO OF $4.8 BILLION.

Q: ELENA, IT SEEMS LIKE YOU CATER TO EVERY SINGLE ASPECT OF BEING AN ICON FOR WOMEN-- YOU HOST 3 SHOWS, YOU'VE WRITTEN A BOOK, YOU HAVE YOUR OWN PODCAST, YOU'RE A COACH AND SPEAKER, YOU'VE CREATED AND CONTINUE TO BUILD AN EMPIRE-- HOW DO YOU CONTINUE TO BALANCE IT ALL? A: I STOPPED TRYING TO BALANCE. I STOPPED TRYING TO COMPARE WHAT I THOUGHT A WELL-BALANCED LIFE TO LOOK LIKE AND THEN SEEING WHAT MY ACTUAL LIFE LOOKS LIKE AND FEELING UPSET ABOUT IT. INSTEAD, I HAVE ACCEPTED THAT I AM A MASTER JUGGLER AND I DO THAT VERY WELL. I FOCUS ON THE MOST IMPORTANT THING AND I DEAL WITH THAT. THE OTHER BALLS THAT ARE STILL IN THE AIR CAN BE UPSET THAT I AM NOT PAYING ATTENTION TO THEM, BUT UNTIL I HANDLE THE MOST IMPORTANT TASK AT HAND, IT WON’T GET MY ATTENTION. I JUGGLE A LOT OF BALLS AND I HAVE LEARNED THAT WHEN I CAN TRUST SOMEONE TO TAKE A FEW OF THOSE SO MY LOAD IS LIGHTER, I PASS THEM OFF. MY LIFE WILL NEVER LOOK CALM, TRANQUIL, PERFECT WHERE EVERYTHING IS PERFECTLY BALANCED AND THAT IS OK WITH ME. I AM COMMITTED TO MAKING DIAMONDS THIS LIFETIME AND WITH THAT COMES CONSTANT PRESSURE AND, QUITE FRANKLY, “DIAMONDS” MAKE ME HAPPIER THAN PEACE AND QUIET. Q: WHAT'S IT LIKE WORKING ALONGSIDE GRANT ON CARDONE CAPITAL? A: GRANT AND WORK VERY WELL TOGETHER ON THE CARDONE CAPITAL SIDE OF THINGS. GRANT HAS THE INSTINCT BACKED BY BEING ABLE TO RUN THE NUMBERS TO KNOW IF A DEAL IS GOING TO WORK. MY ROLE, AS HE CALLS ME….THE FIG (FEMALE INDICATOR GAUGE), IS TO GIVE MY OPINION ON WHAT I THINK ABOUT CERTAIN ASPECTS OF A PROPERTY FROM A FEMALE PERSPECTIVE. HE WILL MAKE HIS JUDGMENT CALL. I AM THERE TO ENCOURAGE HIM TO THINK BIG, SUPPORT HIM WHEN IT REQUIRES HAVING THE GUTS TO PULL THE TRIGGER ON A GOOD DEAL, AND BEING A GREAT CHEERLEADER AS HE CONTINUES TO GROW OUR PORTFOLIO.

Q: WHAT IS YOUR ULTIMATE MISSION IN LIFE? MY MISSION IS TO LEAD THE LARGEST WOMEN EMPOWERMENT GLOBAL MOVEMENT BRINGING WOMEN TOGETHER OWNING THEIR POWER AND MAKING A DIFFERENCE FOR THE BETTER THUS RESTORING THE VALUE OF WOMEN TO SOCIETY.

"WHAT MATTERS TO ME IS MAKING A DIFFERENCE FOR THE BETTER ON THIS PLANET NOT WHAT MAKES ME 'COMFORTABLE.'"

Q: WHAT IS ONE MOTTO YOU LIVE BY? YOU ARE EITHER CREATING OR DESTROYING YOUR EMPIRE WITH EVERY DECISION YOU MAKE.

INFLUENTIAL SPEAKERS TO SHARE THEIR WISDOM WITH THE GOAL OF FAST TRACKING THE 10X LADIES SUCCESS BOTH PERSONALLY AND PROFESSIONALLY. Q: IN ADDITION TO 10X LADIES, IS YOUR EVENT 'BUILDING AN EMPIRE MASTERMIND' ALSO HAPPENING IN 2022? TELL US MORE ABOUT THIS PROGRAM. A: BUILD AN EMPIRE IS A TWO DAY COURSE DELIVERED 4 TIMES A YEAR SOLELY BY ME TEACHING ALL MY MATERIAL ON HOW TO BUILD, EXPAND AND PROTECT AN EMPIRE. THE FIRST MASTERMIND IS ON MINDSET, THE SECOND IS LIFESTYLE, THE THIRD IS BUSINESS/FINANCE AND LASTLY, RELATIONSHIPS. I HOLD THESE 4 MASTERMINDS EVERY YEAR. THIS IS AN EXTENSIVE DEEP DIVE INTO WHAT IT TAKES TO GET YOU THINKING AND OPERATING ON AN EMPIRE SCALE. WOMEN LEAVE THESE EVENTS NOT ONLY FIRED UP BUT WITH THE EXACT TOOLS AND BLUEPRINT IN WHICH TO GOVERN THEIR LIVES ALL THE WHILE HAVING AN ARMY OF LIKE MINDED EMPIRE BUILDING WOMEN BACKING THEM!

. WHO IS YOUR MOTIVATION/INSPIRATION? Q: A: MY MOTIVATION IS ALL THE “LITTLE PEOPLE” JUST LIKE ME WHO WERE MADE TO BELIEVE THEY WERE SMALL, WHO DOUBT THEMSELVES. I AM MOTIVATED FOR THEM. I AM MOTIVATED TO BE STRONG AND SUCCEED FOR THEM SO THEY CAN HAVE THE COURAGE TO DO THE SAME. I’M INSPIRED BY SUCCESS STORIES, ALL THE GOOD MOTHERS OUT THERE, WOMEN WHO MAKE A DIFFERENCE, MEN WHO LOVE AND CARE FOR WOMEN AND CHILDREN, PEOPLE WHO HAVE COURAGE TO DO THE RIGHT THING, MY HUSBAND, CHILDREN AND L. RON HUBBARD. Q: WE SEE YOU HAVE A 10X LADIES EVENT IN 2023 BEING HELD IN MIAMI-- CAN YOU TELL US A LITTLE BIT MORE ABOUT WHAT THIS IS AND WHAT WILL BE TAKING PLACE? A: 10X LADIES IS AN ANNUAL WHERE I BRING WOMEN ACROSS THE GLOBE TOGETHER WHO WANT TO LEARN AND COLLABORATE WITH OTHER WOMEN IN ORDER TO RISE TO A HEIGHTENED LEVEL OF SUCCESS TOGETHER. WE FOCUS ON THE 5 PILLARS OF WHAT IT TAKES TO 10X AS A LADY. MINDSET, RELATIONSHIPS, BUSINESS, FINANCE, AND LIFESTYLEHEALTH AND WELLNESS. I BRING THE BEST, MOST POWERFUL, AND...

Q: WHAT IS ONE PIECE OF ADVICE YOU HAVE FOR WOMEN AROUND THE WORLD? A: BECOME YOUR OWN BEST FRIEND. BE KIND TO YOURSELF, BE YOUR OWN CHEERLEADER, HOLD YOURSELF ACCOUNTABLE, BUT FORGIVE YOURSELF AND SHARE YOUR GREATNESS WITH THE WORLD. YOU CAN AND WILL MAKE A DIFFERENCE. THE WORLD NEEDS YOU. I NEED YOU. SHARE YOURSELF WITH US AND ALLOW US THE GIFT OF HAVING BEEN BETTER BECAUSE OF YOU. OWN YOUR POWER AND CHANGE THE WORLD ONE PERSON AT A TIME.

About Jane Israel "I'VE ALWAYS LOVED DRESSING UP. EVEN AS A CHILD, I REMEMBER CERTAIN OUTFITS OR ITEMS THAT MADE ME FEEL ABSOLUTELY SMASHING! LIKE THE LITTLE CLOGS I HAD WHEN I WAS FOUR THAT WERE MADE OF RED PERFORATED LEATHER AND DECORATED WITH PINK LEATHER FLOWERS. OR THE PURPLE VELVETEEN WRANGLER SHORTS I HAD WHEN I WAS 11. I WORE THEM WITH A LIGHT PINK SUMMER SWEATER WITH CAP SLEEVES AND KORK-EASE PLATFORM SANDALS. WHEN I BECAME A LAWYER, I STILL WANTED TO DRESS UP. I WANTED TO LOOK STRONG, AUTHORITATIVE AND OF COURSE PERFECTLY CHIC. BUT WHEN I SEARCHED FOR MY PERFECT CLOTHES, I WAS SURPRISED BY HOW DIFFICULT THEY WERE TO FIND. INSTEAD WHAT I FOUND WERE OUTFITS MADE OUT OF LOW-QUALITY FABRIC IN BORING AND UNFLATTERING STYLES. IN SHORT, CLOTHES THAT WERE CHEAP AND UNATTRACTIVE. THIS WAS ESPECIALLY DISAPPOINTING BECAUSE IT SEEMED MORE IMPORTANT THAN EVER THAT I HAVE THAT CONFIDENT FEELING THAT COMES WHEN YOU KNOW YOU LOOK SHARP. THAT FEELING THAT MAKES YOU STAND A LITTLE TALLER AND HOLD YOUR HEAD A LITTLE HIGHER. IT SEEMED POSITIVELY UNFAIR, ALMOST AS IF THE WORLD DID NOT VALUE THE CONTRIBUTION I COULD MAKE IN MY PROFESSION AND THEREFORE DID NOT CARE ENOUGH TO ALLOW ME TO DRESS FOR IT. ON MY VERY FIRST DAY OF COLLEGE, THE DEAN OF STUDENTS ENCOURAGED THE INCOMING CLASS TO BE BOLD. WITH THIS IN MIND I STARTED JANE ISRAEL, A LINE OF CLOTHES THAT REFLECTS YOUR INNER POWER AND CONFIDENCE AND EXPRESSES YOUR BOLDNESS."

Because you deserve to be recognized.

Irina Sardaryan REGIONAL MANAGER FOR ROGERS BENEFIT GROUP ...THE PHONE WHEN I STARTED IN 1999, TO ACCOUNT MANAGER, TO SALES, AND IN 2019, I HAD THE TASK OF FILLING SOME PRETTY BIG SHOES - MY BOSS/MENTOR RETIRED AND I WAS ASKED TO MANAGE THE LOS ANGELES REGION FOR RBG. MY TEAM AND I CURRENTLY MANAGE ABOUT 2500 COMPANIES, WITH OVER 250 MILLION IN ANNUALIZED PREMIUM. I ALWAYS SAY, GOING TO LAW SCHOOL WAS THE FIRST BEST DECISION OF MY CAREER AND SECOND BEST WAS TO STAY AT RBG THE CULTURE JUST FELT RIGHT AND I TRUSTED MY INSTINCTS. I COULDN'T BE HAPPIER WITH MY DECISION. EVERY DAY, I GIVE IT MY ALL FOR CONTINUED GROWTH.

Q: FROM LAW SCHOOL TO BUSINESS, TELL US ABOUT YOUR JOURNEY AND HOW YOU GOT TO WHERE YOU ARE TODAY? A: MY JOURNEY AT ROGERS BENEFIT GROUP (RBG) STARTED WHEN I WAS 19 - IT WAS MEANT TO BE A SUMMER JOB AFTER MY FIRST YEAR OF COLLEGE. THE REST IS HISTORY. I WENT FROM COLLEGE TO LAW SCHOOL, BUT NEVER REALLY LEFT RBG. AFTER PASSING THE CA BAR EXAM, I TURNED DOWN A JOB AT AN LA LAW FIRM AND STAYED WITH RBG FULL TIME. I WAS INSPIRED BY THE OPPORTUNITIES FOR GROWTH AND INTRIGUED BY THE POSSIBILITY TO BALANCE MY PROFESSIONAL LIFE WITH MY PLANS TO CREATE A FAMILY. I WAS NOT WRONG. I ALSO CAN'T FAIL TO MENTION THAT MY BOSS AT THE TIME AND THE PERSON TO WHOM I WILL BE ETERNALLY GRATEFUL, INSPIRED ME. THAT IS WHY ONE CAN NEVER TAKE HIS/HER ROLE AS A LEADER LIGHTLY - YOU CAN ALWAYS INSPIRE OR BREAK ANOTHER PERSON. OVER THE YEARS, I WORKED EVERY POSITION AT RBG - FROM SETTING UP

Q: AS A WOMAN IN BUSINESS, WHAT HAVE YOU LEARNED ABOUT OTHER WOMEN IN BUSINESS? A: EVERY WOMAN HAS A STORY, EVERY WOMAN HAS HER STRUGGLES AND TRIUMPHS. WHAT LOOKS "EASY" IS NOT ALWAYS SO. WOMEN ARE JUST BRILLIANT AT JUGGLING.

Q: WHAT IS ROGERS BENEFIT GROUP? A: RBG HELPS ADVISORS, INSURANCE AGENTS, BUSINESS MANAGERS AND COMPANIES DESIGN AND IMPLEMENT EMPLOYEE BENEFITS PACKAGES SO THAT THEY CAN RECRUIT AND RETAIN THE BEST TALENT. OUR FOCUS IS ALL-THINGS GROUP HEALTH INSURANCE AND BENEFITS INCLUDING MEDICAL, DENTAL, VISION, LIFE, TELEMEDICINE, ETC. FOR COMPANIES OF ALL SIZES.

"BRING A SENSE OF URGENCY AND CARE AND BE FLEXIBLE ENOUGH TO CHANGE DIRECTION TO CREATE WINNING SOLUTIONS."

GLORIA MAYFIELD BANKS International Speaker, Entrepreneur, Success Strategist

I KNEW I HAD TO DO SOMETHING DIFFERENT, SO I CHOSE TO PUT MYSELF IN THE SPACE OF OTHER SUCCESSFUL WOMEN WHO COULD TRAIN AND INSPIRE ME. THE DECISION TO INVEST IN MYSELF BY ATTENDING A SUCCESS EVENT, EVEN WHEN IT WASN’T CONVENIENT, ALLOWED MY IMAGINATION TO OVERPOWER MY REALITY BECAUSE OF THE INSPIRATION AND EDUCATION I RECEIVED FROM THOSE OTHER SUCCESSFUL WOMEN. WHEN I RETURNED, NOT ONLY DID I ACHIEVE THAT NEXT CAREER LEVEL, WE BROKE A COMPANY RECORD. THE COMPANY DIDN’T CHANGE, THE QUALIFICATIONS DIDN’T CHANGE, I CHANGED. THAT MOTIVATION MADE A DIFFERENCE. THE BEST PART, AND THE PART THAT FOREVER CHANGED MY OUTLOOK ON MY PERSONAL SUCCESS AND SUSTAINED IT, WAS ACKNOWLEDGING THAT MY ACHIEVEMENT AND MY DREAMS IMPACTED THE ACHIEVEMENTS OF OTHER WOMEN. MY ABILITY TO WIN MEANT THAT OTHER PEOPLE HAD TO EXCEL AS WELL, AND MY DESIRE TO EXCEL CAUSED SO MANY WOMEN TO DO MORE THAN WHAT THEY WOULD HAVE DREAMED OF DOING. IT GAVE ME SO MANY LIFE LESSONS, I WAS ABLE TO TEACH WOMEN HOW TO WIN OVER AND OVER AND OVER AGAIN. NOW, I ALWAYS SAY, “DON’T LEARN HOW TO WORK, LEARN HOW TO WIN!” WHEN YOU HELP SOMEONE ELSE WIN, YOUR DREAM, YOUR PASSION, AND YOUR DESIRE, INCREASES IMMENSELY.

2. AS SOMEONE WHO GREW UP WITH DYSLEXIA, WHAT MESSAGE DO YOU HAVE FOR YOUNG GIRLS ON OVERCOMING SETBACKS OR CHALLENGES? 1. ON THE JOURNEY TO BECOMING AS SUCCESSFUL AS YOU ARE TODAY, WHAT WOULD YOU SAY WAS YOUR BIGGEST LIFE MOMENT THAT MOTIVATED YOU TO BE WHERE YOU ARE? I HAD SOME MAJOR MOMENTS THAT SHIFTED MY DESIRE TO EXCEL, SOME PERSONAL AND SOME PROFESSIONAL, BUT ONE, IN PARTICULAR, ROCKED ME IN A WAY THAT CHANGED THE TRAJECTORY OF MY CAREER. IT CHANGED THE WAY I EXCELLED FROM THAT POINT ON. I WAS HIT WITH SO MUCH CLARITY, THAT I WAS ABLE TO LEARN FROM IT, WORK FROM IT, AND THEN TEACH OTHERS HOW TO DO THE SAME. SO, IT CHANGED MY LIFE AND THE LIVES OF SO MANY OTHERS. EARLY IN MY DIRECT SELLING BUSINESS, I FOUND MYSELF IN QUALIFICATION FOR A NEW CAREER LEVEL. THE QUALIFICATION PERIOD INVOLVED A TEAM BUILDING A PRODUCTION GOAL. I HAD ATTEMPTED AND MISSED THIS LEVEL THREE TIMES BEFORE. SOMETHING WASN’T ADDING UP, AND IT JUST KEPT SLIPPING THROUGH MY FINGERS.

BEING DYSLEXIC WAS A BIG CHALLENGE FOR ME, BECAUSE I WANTED TO EXCEL AND I WAS HUNGRY TO LEARN. IT WAS HARDEST FOR ME IN JUNIOR HIGH AND HIGH SCHOOL BECAUSE I JUST COULDN’T UNDERSTAND WHY I WAS SO CHALLENGED EVEN THOUGH I WORKED SO HARD. AS I LEARNED MORE ABOUT DYSLEXIA, I LEARNED MORE ABOUT MYSELF AND MY CIRCUMSTANCES. READING AND NUMBERS: I LEARNED THAT THEY ARE HARD FOR ME, BUT ALSO LEARNED WHY THEY ARE HARD FOR ME. I ALSO LEARNED THAT DYSLEXIC PEOPLE ARE VERY SMART, THEY JUST HAVE A VERY HARD TIME WITH CERTAIN THINGS. SO, MY ADVICE...FIND GREAT MENTORS WHO SEE AND APPRECIATE YOUR GIFTS AND HELP YOU ACCEPT AND NAVIGATE THROUGH YOUR CHALLENGES. A MAJOR REASON WHY I AM A CONFIDENCE BUILDING EXPERT IS BECAUSE I DEEPLY UNDERSTAND HOW CONFIDENCE CAN CREATE A SUCCESSFUL JOURNEY FOR SOMEONE, AND HOW A LACK OF CONFIDENCE CAN DESTROY IT. STRONG MENTORSHIP WILL LIFT YOU, EXPOSE YOU TO OTHER STRONG MENTORS, AND OPEN YOU TO NEW OPPORTUNITIES I ALSO WANT TO ENCOURAGE YOU TO FIND A WAY TO WORK AROUND YOUR CIRCUMSTANCES. YOU HAVE TO KNOW YOUR GIFTS AND KNOW THE AREAS WHERE YOU AREN’T GIFTED.

WHEN I GOT TO HARVARD BUSINESS SCHOOL, I MADE IT A PRIORITY TO FIND MENTORS AND PEOPLE WHO WERE GIFTED WHERE I WASN’T. I HAD SOMEONE READ TO ME EVERY DAY. I WOULD LISTEN, REPEAT IT, AND THEN EXPLAIN THE STRATEGY OR LESSON BACK TO HER. HER TIME AND INVESTMENT IN ME WAS ALSO MY TIME AND INVESTMENT IN HER. LEANING INTO YOUR GIFTS, BLESSES OTHERS. I CHOSE TO LEAN INTO CHARISMA, COURAGE, AND STRATEGIC THINKING INSTEAD OF FOCUSING ON MY WEAKNESSES.

LASTLY, YOU GET ACCESS TO MY ONLINE CONTENT LIBRARY. THIS LIBRARY FEATURES TRAINING ON VARIOUS TOPICS FOR GROWTH WITH UNLIMITED VIEWING TIME. THE TESTIMONIES FROM WOMEN IN THIS PROGRAM HAVE BLOWN ME AWAY, AND SOLIDIFIED MY DECISION TO KEEP IT IN PLACE FOR AMBITIOUS WOMEN WHO ARE CAPABLE AND WANT MORE!

4. WHO OR WHAT INSPIRES YOU? HOW? I AM SO BLESSED TO HAVE BEEN ABLE TO SIT WITH MANY WOMEN WHO HAVE INSPIRED ME. WHAT INSPIRES ME THE MOST IS KNOWING THAT RIGHT NOW WOMEN ARE COMING INTO THEIR OWN, AND HOW MY SEAT AT THE TABLE ALLOWS OTHERS TO GET THERE. I AM VERY INSPIRED BY THE POSSIBILITIES OF OUR YOUTH. YOUNG WOMEN ARE DOING INCREDIBLE THINGS BECAUSE OF THEIR COURAGE AND COMMITMENT TO CONFIDENCE, WHICH EXPANDS THEIR CHOICES. SO, I AM VERY INSPIRED BY WOMEN, AND IT STARTED WITH MY MOTHER. I GREW UP THE THIRD OF FOUR GIRLS IN A WONDERFUL, MIDDLE CLASS HOME IN DETROIT, MICHIGAN. I CAN HONESTLY TELL YOU, MY MOTHER WAS VERY INTENTIONAL ABOUT SHOWING ALL FOUR OF HER DAUGHTERS POWERFUL WOMEN ROLE MODELS, STRONG PEOPLE IN THE AFRICAN AMERICAN COMMUNITY, AND THE CONVERSATION ALWAYS BEING ABOUT NEVER SETTLING FOR LESS THAN EXCELLENCE. SHE IS THE ONE WHO INSPIRED ME THE MOST TO BECOME MY BEST GLORIA MAYFIELD BANKS.

3. CAN YOU TELL US MORE ABOUT WHAT QUEENDOM IS AND WHAT PROMPTED YOU TO START THIS ONLINE DIGITAL TRAINING? I JUST COULD NOT REACH THE NUMBER OF WOMEN WHO WERE ASKING ME FOR THAT LEVEL OF COACHING, MENTORSHIP, ACCOUNTABILITY, AND WISDOM. THERE JUST AREN’T ENOUGH AIRPLANES OR DAYS TO REACH ALL OF THE WOMEN I WANT TO BE ABLE TO HELP MOVE FROM A PLACE OF ORDINARY TO EXTRAORDINARY. I HAD TAKEN SOME ONLINE COURSES THAT MADE A DIFFERENCE FOR ME, SO I DECIDED TO PUT MY CREATE YOUR QUEENDOM PROGRAM TOGETHER. I DEFINE QUEENDOM AS THE LEVEL YOU OBTAIN WHERE YOU FEEL BEST FOR YOURSELF, YOUR FAMILY, AND YOUR COMMUNITY. I DON’T COACH WOMEN TO FIND BALANCE. IN FACT, I DISCOURAGE TRYING TO BE SUPERWOMAN. I COACH WOMEN, THROUGH MY LESSONS AND STRATEGIES ON HOW TO MAKE A MINDSHIFT THAT LEVELS UP YOUR CONFIDENCE, HOW TO MASTER THE METHODS OF A SUCCESSFUL BUSINESS WOMAN, AND HOW TO INCREASE YOUR INCOME. THE MINDSHIFT. THE METHODS. THE MONEY. YOUR QUEENDOM. WHEN YOU CREATE YOUR QUEENDOM, IT INCREASES YOUR CHOICES, WHICH DIRECTLY AFFECTS YOU AND THE PEOPLE IN YOUR PATH. CREATE YOUR QUEENDOM GIVES YOU ACCESS TO THREE MAIN THINGS. YOU GET ACCESS TO ME THROUGH WEEKLY LIVE COACHING SESSIONS, & ACCESS TO OUR EXCLUSIVE COMMUNITY GROUP WHERE YOU CAN SHARE & NETWORK WITH OTHER POWERFUL WOMEN LIKE YOURSELF.

COMMUNICATION. PASSION. LIGHT -Jamie Lynn Doll

I WAS ASKED PREVIOUSLY BY A DEAR FRIEND, " WHAT ARE THREE WORDS THAT RESONATE WITH YOUR HIGHEST SELF?" I CAME BACK WITH A QUICK TEXT AND SOME RANDOM WORDS WHICH THEN SHE REPLIED, " DO THOSE WORDS TRULY LIGHT YOU UP? CONNECT WITH YOUR HIGHEST SELF AND SEE IF THE WORDS CHANGE AT ALL." I PAUSED IN MY TRACK, CLOSED MY EYES AND TOOK A FEW DEEP BREATHS. THE WORDS CHANGED. I TEXTED BACK A FEW MINUTES LATER WITH HER REPLY " I LOVE THEM ALL!" ( INSERT HEART EMOJI ) IF YOU COULD DEFINE YOURSELF IN THREE WORDS, WHAT WOULD IT BE? DO THESE WORDS COEXIST WITH YOUR LINE OF WORK? DO THEY LIFT YOU UP TO BE YOUR TRUEST HIGHEST SELF? DOES YOUR CAREER/DAILY LIFE LIGHT YOU UP OR DIM YOU DOWN? AS WOMEN IN TODAY'S WORLD, IT'S QUITE THE CHALLENGE TO MUSTER OURSELVES UP IN JUST THREE WORDS. WE WANT TO DO IT ALL, RIGHT? WE WANT TO BE ALL. SUCCESS IS HUGE TO US. WE WILL DRAIN OURSELVES TO CONQUER EVERY TASK, EVERY TO-DO LIST AND THEN PILE ON MORE! SOMETIMES PERHAPS IT’S FOR SAKE OF VALIDATION AND NOT TRULY FOR US. AS FANTASTIC AND AMBITIOUS AS THAT ALL MAY SEEM, WHY DO WE FEEL THAT WE NEED TO DO MORE? IF YOU ARE RESONATING WITH THIS, TAKE A DEEP BREATH IN AND EXHALE OUT SLOWLY. YOU ARE ENOUGH. FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO HAVE YET TO KNOW ME, I'M A PROUD VAULT MEMBER OF THE MODERN-DAY WIFE COMMUNITY. I CONSTANTLY TRAVEL FROM PLACE TO PLACE, THOUGH I RESIDE IN ORANGE COUNTY WITH MY MULTI-TALENTED PARTNER, DANNY LEEDS. I ALSO HYBRID HOMESCHOOL MY STRONG-WILLED SON AND ADDED A VERY STUBBORN FUR BABY FRENCHIE NAMED CHICO TO THE MIX. WHILE HAVING AN ALL-MALE DOMINANT HOUSEHOLD, THE ONLY WAY TO FIND MY SANITY AND SANCTUARY, IS IN THE WORK I ACTUALLY LOVE TO DO. SO, WHAT DO THESE THREE WORDS AND THE LINE OF WORK I OFFER HAVE TO DO WITH EACH OTHER? I DO MANY DIFFERENT THINGS FOR MY LINE UP WORK FROM HELPING INDIVIDUALS CLEAR UP THE ENERGY OF SPACES, WORKING WITH THE BEST SKIN CARE THAT I RELIGIOUSLY SHARE TO THE WORLD AND I ALSO BUILD NETWORKS FOR SMALL BUSINESSES. THIS IS WHERE MY COMMUNICATION COMES IN. IT IS MORE THAN JUST NETWORKING WHEN PASSION TAKES OVER TO SEE YOUR BUSINESS AND PERSONAL SELF THRIVE. THIS MAKES ME ONE HUNDRED PERCENT LIGHT UP.

TO SAY THAT I FEEL (BLESSED) IS AN UNDERSTATEMENT.

HI! WE’RE KATY PERRY AND MORGAN MCLACHLAN, THE CO-FOUNDERS OF DE SOI. WE TEAMED UP TO MAKE A MORE CONSIDERED CHOICE FOR HAPPY HOUR. AS CREATIVE PROFESSIONALS AND BUSY MOMS WITH A SHARED LOVE FOR A SPRITZ, WE WANTED A DRINK THAT WAS BUBBLY AND DELICIOUS, BUT THAT DIDN’T GET IN THE WAY OF EARLY MORNINGS AND LONG NIGHTS. A DRINK THAT WAS TRULY FUN TO SIP ON, AND STILL ALLOWED US TO FEEL PRESENT AND ENGAGED WHILE TAKING THE LEAD. A DRINK THAT MARRIED OUR PASSION FOR PLANTS AND BETTER-FOR-YOU INGREDIENTS WITH BIG, BOLD FLAVOR AND FEEL-GOOD ADAPTOGENS. SO WE CREATED DE SOI, A RANGE OF NON-ALCOHOLIC APÉRITIFS, AS A WAY TO FIND PLEASURE WITHOUT THE PROOF. IT’S AN APÉRITIF MADE FOR MOMENTS YOU DON'T WANT TO FORGET, WHETHER YOU’RE LAUGHING WITH FRIENDS OVER DINNER OR INDULGING IN A SOLO TOAST TO YOURSELF. WE HOPE YOU ENJOY IT AS MUCH AS WE DO. CHEERS TO PLEASURE WITH RESTRAINT!

WHAT SHE SAID

event recap

.Our speakers and special guests

WHAT SHE SAID On March 24 we teamed up with W Hollywood Hotel and L.A. STYLE Magazine to bring to the Greater LA Community the spectacular "WHAT SHE SAID" Event.

W Hotels produces the What She Said Event at their hotels around the globe, and we co-produced this event in honor of Women's Month.
