Dear Reader,

Today, I want to tell you about one of the most important people in my life...

My mother's birthday was this week, Monday, May 27, 2024—she would have turned 72 this year.

When she passed away in 2004, I received a share of the inheritance from the sale of her house in Tennessee, where I spent my youth.

My mother worked very hard for the little she had, and I didn’t want to waste her life's work on something trivial. So, I waited almost ten years to use it in a way that would honor her memory.

I gave her sister a large part of it because my mother would have done the same. I invested the rest of the financial gift I had been given in my coaching business by hiring an excellent mentor.

Maybe some background will help you understand
why this decision made perfect sense to me …

My mother, Ginger, came from a humble background. She became a mother at 22 and never got the chance to go to college.

Over the course of her life, she mainly worked bone-hard minimum-wage jobs ...
