How She Made $50M Against All Odds | Stormy Wellington | EP 45

Speaker 1 That's right. So have fun.
Play a game with your life. You know, observe yourself and go see other people and see what they do and learn from other people.
And don't be afraid to be innovative.

Speaker 1 I say all the time, people don't hate, just innovate. All right.
And so that is the mindset that I think every entrepreneur should have. You should reinvent yourself every eight to 18 months.

Speaker 1 You know, you got McDonald's, they started selling salads and, you know, McRibs. And, you know, when you see those type of things happening, Starbucks is supposed to be about coffee.

Speaker 1 Now they sell datasets and sandwiches. And so I think that that's about innovation.

Speaker 1 Yeah, that there's still Starbucks. You know, McDonald's still is known for the Big Mac, but they got chicken strips too.
Chicken strips and salads. That's right.

Speaker 1 I mean, who goes to McDonald's for a salad? I mean, no pun intended, but you feel me. It's about reinventing yourself, but still staying true to your core.

Speaker 1 What is up, the Entrepreneur DNA family?

Speaker 2 You do not want to miss this episode. I have such a powerhouse female here and she had every reason not to be the successful individual she is today.

Speaker 2 From Section 8 housing, dropping out of high school, teenage mom. She could go for a laundry list of why she shouldn't be where she is today.

Speaker 2 However, she has done over $50 million in business in the last 10 years, has created 139 millionaires herself and coached them. Miss Coach Dormy is in the house.

Speaker 1 What's up, girl? I am excited to be here. Today is a big day for me and a big day for everyone that's watching this right now.
I love that.

Speaker 2 Let's talk about this big day. So what is today?

Speaker 1 So today I celebrate 10 years of being in the same multi-level marketing company. Today I celebrate making, earning over $51 million, not in sales for the company, but it earned

Speaker 1 revenue residuals. Oh, okay.

Speaker 2 M-R-R.

Speaker 1 Yeah, residual. Yeah.
You thought it was, I don't know that complicated word. All right.
I'm celebrating coaching and mentoring 139 first generational millionaires.

Speaker 1 And I'm celebrating the relaunch of what I did the first 10 years in my company, which is Project 50,000. And I'm proud of myself.

Speaker 1 I'm so excited because most people can't do anything for 10 months, let alone 10 years. So I'm

Speaker 1 proud business owner, entrepreneur, black woman today.

Speaker 2 You should be. I was introduced.

Speaker 2 We have a lot of mutual friends from the Grant Cardones, the Dana Fleischmans, the, you know, we have those mutual friends, but I was introduced to you in such a powerful way.

Speaker 2 The moment we were introduced, it was just like this, like, oh, this is a woman that can move mountains.

Speaker 2 You can just tell the energy you bring, how you shake people's hands, how you engage, how you're engaging. So, I want to really speak to just all entrepreneurs.
I don't care if you're female.

Speaker 2 I don't care if you're male. I don't care your skin color.
I want entrepreneurs to take something from you today to realize anything is possible. Anything, regardless of where you come from.

Speaker 2 So, let's talk a little bit about that. Like, you had every reason

Speaker 2 to shit the bed and just be a statistic and not do anything with your life.

Speaker 2 But here you are, a decade into being an entrepreneur, $51 million of revenue, 139 developed millionaires by you, by your own hands.

Speaker 2 Talk to us about that journey.

Speaker 1 So you said a lot. You said a lot.

Speaker 1 I'll start with this. You know, how you start is not how you have to finish.

Speaker 1 I believe the two most important days in your life is the day that you were born, yes.

Speaker 1 But really the day that you find out why you were born. And I think a lot of times we think that we're going to discover that in college and school.

Speaker 1 But I believe that you discover who you are through just living life. And that's really how I became the woman I am today.

Speaker 1 You know, I dropped out of school in the 10th grade because I was a teenage mom. I come from that environment where moms had to go figure it out.
My mom was a single mom.

Speaker 1 My dad had moved on and got remarried. And my mom was a drug dealer.
My mom didn't go to college either. My mom, you know, she wasn't a teenage mom, but my mom, you know, was in the streets.

Speaker 1 My mom was a big drug dealer. And so she did not pass down education and, you know,

Speaker 1 logistics and systems to me. She passed down hustle, grit, grind, you know, dedication, hard work, persistence to me.

Speaker 1 And so when I woke up finally one day after scheming, stripping, I was a stripper at 13 years old.

Speaker 1 you know not because I wanted to go buy some shoes yeah my first time in the strip club I was 13 years old my mom was in Jamaica selling drugs somehow she got stuck over there she couldn't get back home and she left us with her perverted boyfriend who did not work he was a he stayed home and played with himself all day so I was exposed to child to pornography excuse me not child but to pornography at 13 years old watching my mom's boyfriend play with himself in the room I used to hear it, so I used to know what was going on.

Speaker 1 Like, I could still hear the sound of him during the day instead of working and trying to figure out how to help the family, help my mom. He was being a freak.
So life made me who I am today.

Speaker 1 Me not wanting to repeat that cycle. I didn't want to sell drugs, but I wanted to be free.
So

Speaker 1 my first time in the strip club, my mom was in Jamaica. She couldn't get back home, and the water got cut off.
And I used to take a bath at the gym.

Speaker 1 I used to take a bath with gallons of water pouring in the tub. Me and my two brothers would take a bath with that same water.

Speaker 1 And so I went to the strip club one day with a friend because I always look mature. And here I am being exposed to, hey, you can make some money if you pull up your skirt.
And I never forget that day.

Speaker 1 I remember that day like it was yesterday. And I got on black kind of today because I had on a black outfit similar to this.

Speaker 1 This man walked up to me and says, I'll give you $600 right now if you lift up your skirt. I was 13 years old.
First of all, I had no business in a strip club, so he wasn't wrong.

Speaker 1 But me thinking back to that day, that was the day that I kind of crossed over to realizing that I got to figure it out. And I thought about that experience.

Speaker 1 And I'm like, okay, if I take this $600, at least I could go back home and, you know, turn on the water and buy some groceries. And at first I felt humiliated, but then I said, okay, let me do it.

Speaker 1 I lift up my skirt, got those $600, went home, turned on the water, went home and bought groceries. And that was the beginning.
And here I am a stripper at 13. So life made me.

Speaker 1 not want to repeat it in a negative way, but in the most positive way. So I did what was necessary to grow and to become the woman I am today.

Speaker 1 So how you start is not how you have to finish, but you have to make a decision to change your own story.

Speaker 2 Oh my God. I mean, I have shivers because I did not know that part about your story.
I know. Know a lot about your story, but not that part.
Yeah.

Speaker 2 And thank you for being, listen, there's not a lot of people on this planet that are willing to be open and vulnerable, let alone a uber successful individual who has millions and millions of followers all over social media to be as vulnerable as you just were.

Speaker 2 I applaud you and I thank you. Thank you.
Yep.

Speaker 1 You know, I have no choice. I think that if you forget where you came from, you repeat where you came from.

Speaker 1 So I think once you get out, you have a responsibility to be as transparent as possible because you don't know who's watching you, who's listening to you, who's learning from you, or who needs to know that if you can do it, that they can do it too.

Speaker 1 So I would never, I don't care how rich I become, how wealthy I become. I don't care if I'm at the White House or the penthouse or our house, you know, the streets or the sweets.

Speaker 1 I'm going to always tell people who I used to be so that they could be inspired by my journey.

Speaker 2 You know, it's funny that you say that because you are so inspirational, and you and I had the chance to speak on several different stages together in the last couple months.

Speaker 2 But, you know, one of the things that I think is important that you do very well, whether you know this or not,

Speaker 2 you don't just inspire people,

Speaker 2 you also help them aspire.

Speaker 2 And there is a big difference between inspiring and aspiring.

Speaker 2 And what you do, how you communicate, and your proof of I started this way and I'm going to be finishing this way helps people aspire for more.

Speaker 2 And you have an innate, whether you know you're doing it or not, you have an innate ability for people to be in that room while you're on stage, listening to this podcast, watching YouTube, on TikTok, Instagram, and all the things you do.

Speaker 2 For people to aspire, I can be more.

Speaker 1 Wow.

Speaker 2 If she can do it, I can do it. And so you need to know that.

Speaker 1 I appreciate that because

Speaker 1 I try to do that. And many people won't tell you how great you are.
Because sometimes it makes them insecure about who they are.

Speaker 1 And so to be around people, and that's what I love about successful people. We're collaborating at the top.
We want you to know how great you are. So thank you for giving me that confirmation.

Speaker 2 Of course. Because I won't be there.
Because you need to push harder for the next decade, girl. You're not done.
Right. You're not done.
You got to push harder. You have a lot more lives to change.

Speaker 2 So you have a goal. Yes.
You want to get how many more millionaires under your tutelage, under your coaching, that you can handcraft, that you can change their life, change their job.

Speaker 2 How many more do you want to go get?

Speaker 1 So I have 139. So you need 861.

Speaker 1 Before I die, like, it's not a race. It's just a journey.

Speaker 2 That's it.

Speaker 1 I aspire to be that woman that people remember me for helping a thousand people become real millionaires, not a million in sales. Sure.

Speaker 1 But a million dollars went through their bank account, at least while I was their mentor, their coach.

Speaker 1 Now, I don't know what happened if they separated from me, but if I'm in your life, your life must get better. That's what I aspire to do.

Speaker 2 So you understand what that really means.

Speaker 2 You're not just affecting a thousand humans.

Speaker 2 What does that do to the trajectory of who they are? Are they mothers? Are they fathers? Do they have children? Do they have brothers, sisters?

Speaker 2 Do they have people that they're now going to soak up everything you have to give and then they can go?

Speaker 1 I mean, that's the whole game. I mean, like, so let me say you said, my daughter, she'll be 25 in a couple of weeks, right?

Speaker 1 And when I look at her, I'm like, wow, I'm so grateful that she didn't have to walk in my footsteps.

Speaker 1 She is about to be 25. She has no kids.
I had two by the time I was 25. She never had to be a stripper.
She did graduate from high school. She is like little me in the flesh, right?

Speaker 1 My first year mentoring her, my daughter made a half a million dollars. My daughter.
Stop. She moved to L.A.
Her rent was $15,000 for the month. And you know what?

Speaker 1 One of the things I'm most proud of is she said this to me recently, and I'm happy that's what me and you are going to be doing some real estate together. That's right.

Speaker 1 But she says to me, you know, mom, that was stupid when I rented that, that, that condo for $15,000 a month.

Speaker 1 And I said, you know what? It was. And she said, you never told me that I shouldn't have done that.
And that's the truth. And that's why I'm excited about being able to.

Speaker 1 grow around people like you, partner with people like you, because there's a lot of people that I didn't tell about real estate.

Speaker 1 A lot of people I didn't tell to purchase and invest in real estate and to buy annuities and mutual funds.

Speaker 1 So I just want you to know that it's not a mistake that I am here on my 10th year anniversary. And my new desire is not to, I got 16 Birken bags.
I got 17 watches. I drive a Rolls Royce fashion.

Speaker 1 You know, you know what that is?

Speaker 2 I don't. What the hell is that one?

Speaker 1 It has seats on the outside that like Lily Bucket seats for when you want a tailgate. No.
It has the stars in the ceiling. Like that's what you call.

Speaker 1 I don't want to call it stupid because nothing is wrong with it because I believe that you should be able to buy what you want. But I also believe that you should have, what is it called, MMR?

Speaker 2 Yes. I call it residual.

Speaker 2 It's called residual in her world. In my world, we call it MRR, monthly reoccurring revenue.

Speaker 1 Okay, so that's what I want to do in this next season. So I just want to tell you that is what I believe a part of this connection, this conversation and connection represents.

Speaker 1 So I want you to know as much as I could possibly tell you about me and where I come from so that your viewers can know that we're about to do some big things in the real estate game. Let's go.

Speaker 1 And I want them to look at me and inspire you to connect with with us so we can do this together and build generational wealth. That's right.
So it means generational wealth.

Speaker 1 When you break a generational curse, you break a generational curse.

Speaker 1 When you do something that has never been done in your family, you teach the people that come after you, the children, your great-great-grandchildren, that if you could do it, that they can do it too.

Speaker 1 So for me, that's very important. When you walk through my door, I have a white baby grand piano.
Why? Because black people are not supposed to have white baby grand pianos. Okay.

Speaker 1 I invested $5 million with Grant Cardone. Why? Because a black person is not supposed to invest $5 million with Grant Cardone.
So I do a lot of things for the story.

Speaker 1 So my point in answering your question is it's about a legacy, breaking generational curses, and creating generational wealth that can be passed down to the third, fourth, fifth, sixth generation.

Speaker 1 Something that we are not accustomed to doing, especially as a black people. I want to be that girl.

Speaker 2 I love that. I will be that girl.
You will be that girl. Absolutely.

Speaker 1 That's it. Period.

Speaker 2 And then, and then

Speaker 2 get excited. So, what does your journey look like for these next 800? Let's just round it to 800.
What do you want to help them? Do you want to help them focus more on real estate?

Speaker 2 Do you want to help them focus on the wealth? What direction do you want to help these individuals go over the next rest of your life, as you like to say?

Speaker 1 Wow. Very great question.
And I'm happy that I'm ready for the answer. That's right.
So I believe in health, wealth, and longevity. Okay.

Speaker 1 I've seen people have temporary health. Yeah.
Temporary wealth. Yep.
And I will not be that person. I was hurt before.

Speaker 1 I remember making millions of dollars and going broke. I'm not doing that again.

Speaker 1 I remember being healthy, sexy, looking good, feeling good, and then going into a depression and gaining 30, 40 pounds and losing my beauty and losing

Speaker 1 my mission for life. And so I want to be the teacher of health, wealth, and longevity.
Like you can die with a great name. I'm tired of great people.
Their name, they lose their name.

Speaker 1 They lose who they are through life circumstances. So I'm going to teach people how to live within a life system.

Speaker 1 And in order to live a great life, you have to have, for example, health.

Speaker 1 Okay. So that's why I am currently still actively building in network marketing.
A lot of people like of my caliber make millions of dollars and they just quit. I would never forget where I came from.

Speaker 1 I would not be the multi-millionaire that I am today, the investor, the businesswoman, the author, if it wasn't for the industry of multi-level marketing.

Speaker 1 So number one, I am actively building in that profession. And the products, my company, we distribute amazing nutritional supplements.

Speaker 2 I can vouch for this, by the way. My wife has taken part in some of your

Speaker 2 vitamins

Speaker 2 and supplements.

Speaker 2 They're for real, people.

Speaker 1 For real. Go ahead.
Yeah. So that's very important to me.

Speaker 1 People don't realize how important it is, for example, serotonin. Serotonin is formed in the gut.
If you are full of shit,

Speaker 1 you are forming bad serotonin. 95% of serotonin is formed in the gut.
So I distribute an amazing cleanse, a gentle cleanse that can change your life.

Speaker 1 So I'm really big on health, mental health, teaching people how to develop. I have books that changes your mindset.
I believe that your mindset is your greatest asset.

Speaker 1 Without the right mindset, you won't retain or hold on to anything. You can't manage anything without having the right emotions, the right thoughts, the right mindsets, the right belief system, BS.

Speaker 1 Okay. So I have a community called Girl Hold My Hand as well.
I'm big. I don't even know if you know this on meditation.

Speaker 1 I meditate every day, but every Monday through Thursday, I meditate with a couple hundred men and women from all over the world. Africa, Europe, Dominican Republic, Paraguay, in the mornings.

Speaker 1 All right. Friday, I'm being on celebrating success.
Again, I meet with hundreds of women and men at eight o'clock in the morning on a Friday just to celebrate. success for the week.

Speaker 1 So I want people to know that it's about the longevity. So you get your health right, your mental health, your physical health right.

Speaker 1 You have a life system, and then you go get some money. You got to have some money.

Speaker 1 I just saw your nice watch on your wrist today, and I'm like, I'm sitting there watching and looking at it. Not that I'm a materialistic girl, all right?

Speaker 2 I see your time twice.

Speaker 1 I think that nothing is wrong with the abundance.

Speaker 1 Why not make enough money to do all the things that you want? If you want to have on some nice Nikes, some nice red bottoms, a nice watch, and have passive residual income. You should have everything.

Speaker 1 You should have nice houses, nice cars, nice family, nice trips, nice everything. I just want to show people that you can have all that you desire.

Speaker 2 I need everyone right now to listen to this. If you're watching this, pay attention.

Speaker 2 You need more people like Stormy in your life because if you mentally can't fight through the pain and we all have pain. We all have those moments.
We all have struggle financially.

Speaker 2 We all have struggle with work or kids or marriage or whatever.

Speaker 2 If you aren't following Stormy, a part of Stormy's world, understand everything she is saying to you today here on this episode is exactly who she is.

Speaker 2 From the moment I met her, how I started this podcast, when you give her a hug and she's going to come in and give you a hug, that's who she is. The energy she has, this is who she is.

Speaker 2 And she has changed thousands, hundreds of thousands, maybe millions of people's lives.

Speaker 2 And if it's just as simple as following her on Instagram, following her on TikTok, following her on Facebook, wherever she's at, you need individuals like Stormy to be a part of your life.

Speaker 2 Because because here's why i know that she has mentors that are a part of her life i have mentors a part of my life and at this point we are mentors to each other we're gonna do a lot of real estate together she's gonna be able to make a massive mental impact on my crowd and i'll tell you guys make sure you're a minimum following stormy as a moment in time this moment what is your instagram is it coach stormy on instagram stormy with a why with a why make sure you do that we're not done yet but i need everyone to understand who she is is exactly what she's coming across here uh as a moment in time and so let's talk to this point because you know this and I know this.

Speaker 2 People allow life to get in their way and they allow that to be their reason for why not. You didn't, like we talked about, quit high school, two kids by under 25,

Speaker 2 high school dropout, section at housing.

Speaker 2 How can you help the person watching or listening to this right now? Get out of their own way. Maybe they just got fired, right?

Speaker 2 Maybe it's not quite as extreme as your background, but maybe they just got fired. Maybe it's money.
Maybe it's their husband or wife. Maybe it's parenting.

Speaker 2 Maybe it's the things that they just allow that to beat themselves up. What would you say to that person today?

Speaker 1 So first of all, you know, I believe that honesty is the best policy, right? And I think that we oftentimes are not willing to be real with ourselves.

Speaker 1 We put ourselves exactly where we put ourselves. Your thoughts,

Speaker 1 your talks, you know, your tolerance put you exactly where you are today. Yeah.
And I've learned that when you want to change where you are, I use this philosophy called ADD.

Speaker 1 And I use that philosophy because I was taught when I was a little girl, or they tried to teach me when I was a little girl, I had to reprogram myself that I had ADD.

Speaker 1 So imagine growing up, not only dropping out of high school, having your first child at 15, I did I tell you that, but also being told that you have ADD, and that's looked upon as a learning disability.

Speaker 1 So you're trying to learn and you really think you could learn, but then you got ADD. They tell you you got ADD.
It wasn't that. I just get bored quick.
Yeah. It's just keep me entertained.
Teach me.

Speaker 1 Look good. Make me want to look at you.
Bring some shiny braces. I don't give a damn.
Keep me entertained while you're teaching me. So I didn't have ADD.
I just was bored.

Speaker 1 But I had to reprogram myself to not believing that I had ADD. So imagine not realizing that your thoughts are where your life has brought you where your thoughts have taken you.

Speaker 1 And so change what you speak and change what you see. Change what you allow to take up space in your mind.
And so if you lost your job, maybe you need to lose that job. You know, I believe that

Speaker 1 you know, pain would teach you what pride won't allow you to learn. And a lot of times, when you lose something, it's because it's not yours.

Speaker 1 What's yours will never leave you, or what's yours can never be taken away. You can't take from me, or nobody can take from you what's supposed to be yours.

Speaker 1 So, maybe losing that job is giving you a chance to go see that you're really supposed to own a corporation and you're supposed to learn something new.

Speaker 1 So, I think that we just have to stop feeling like we're victims of life.

Speaker 1 So, number A in ADD now for me is always assess, always assess where you are, always assess your thoughts, always observe yourself and be aware of what am I thinking right now?

Speaker 1 This may sound weird, but if you do it long enough, you will learn to like, I'm a corporation. I manage myself.
I promote myself. I give myself assignments.
I hire myself. I fire myself.

Speaker 1 I'm in, I manage myself

Speaker 1 with myself, right?

Speaker 1 So always be aware. So ADD, always be aware, always assess.
Am I where I want to be? Is this thought right for where I want to go? Am I engaging in the right conversation?

Speaker 1 Stop talking to your broke friends. Go get you some mentors.
Go get you some coaches. Change your environment constantly.
D, decide. We got to decide what it is that we want.

Speaker 1 The vision for your life will create the discipline for your life. So I'm always visualizing, okay, how do I want to show up? What do I want my life to look like? What do I want my car to be like?

Speaker 1 How do I want my children to view me? So because I'm always assessing, I'm always assessing. I'm always deciding.

Speaker 1 And I'm deciding what to divide myself away from.

Speaker 1 And so we have to stay in constant awareness of who we are and what are we doing at every given moment that's either adding to the vision for our lives or taking away. So assess, decide, divide.

Speaker 1 And so I believe in order to multiply, you got to divide, right?

Speaker 1 And so I would tell the person that's watching me today that may have went through something, you are where your thoughts and your talks have brought you.

Speaker 1 You are where your talks and your thoughts have brought you. And man is maker of himself.
You have more power than you have been giving yourself credit for. Change your environment.

Speaker 1 Change what you believe about yourself and watch. Your life can change in one week.
Your life can change in one day by how you change up here and change right here.

Speaker 2 You know, it's funny. So I have five laws of success that I've built.
The first law that I say is decide what you want

Speaker 2 and who you need to be to get it.

Speaker 1 That's right.

Speaker 2 Because what you just said is basically the same thing.

Speaker 2 Right? Because if you think

Speaker 2 this and you talk this, but it's opposed to who you want to be or what you want, then it's just never going to come to reality.

Speaker 2 Because your thoughts and your words aren't in alignment with your reality.

Speaker 2 That's right. Right.
So you do have to make a decision. Your first D is decide.
That's right. Decide what you want.
Because if you can make that decision, then you need to, for me, is commit to it.

Speaker 2 Right. So that's where your thoughts and your words come in.
You got to commit to that decision. You can't just say, I'm going to go make a million dollars.

Speaker 2 That's right. And then what? Like, what's in alignment with that? There's nothing.

Speaker 2 Who you'd need to be, the joke I always make is: if you want your six-pack,

Speaker 2 you can't be eating donuts and drinking Coca-Cola. That's right.
So make the decisions to eat chicken and broccoli. It's not that difficult.

Speaker 2 But you made a decision when you were 13 years old saying, I'm never going to be stuck in this position.

Speaker 2 I'm going to do what I need to do today, but that's going to transition in doing what you need to do right now.

Speaker 2 Today, 10 years into this business, celebrating your 10-year anniversary, you are a whole lot different lady than you were 10 years ago when you started this journey. Yes, very much so.

Speaker 1 Right?

Speaker 2 So let's talk to that point. Today, looking back 10 years, what can you attribute?

Speaker 2 Now, I know there's a lot of things you could attribute, but if there's one or two to the level of success, I mean, $50 million going through your bank account, girl, come on.

Speaker 2 There's a very small amount of people that can say that, right?

Speaker 1 That's crazy.

Speaker 2 Developing 139 others.

Speaker 2 to make a million dollars go through their bank. Like, that is a very unique.
You are unique. You are very special.
But

Speaker 2 what could you go back and say, okay, over the 10 years, I can attribute this one or two things. And I'm sure there's 20, but what would be one or two that you can point to?

Speaker 1 The first thing comes to my mind, and I can't change it because I feel like I'm lying.

Speaker 1 I live in principles. Like, I live in principles.
I understand. What you make happen for somebody else, God will make happen for you.
And God is whoever you call your God.

Speaker 1 Like, I am not a person that's going to tell you who God is. Be whoever your God is, I respect it.
But you have to understand what you make happen for somebody else, God will make happen for you.

Speaker 1 You have to understand being fruitful and multiplying, replenish, subdue. You got to understand that

Speaker 1 we were created for abundance. So,

Speaker 1 number one, I live a very principal-based life. I'm not going to lie.
I'm not going to steal. I'm not going to manipulate.
I'm not going to take.

Speaker 1 But I used to be that girl that didn't care about that. If I overcharge you, okay, well, that's the price.
No, and what is overcharging?

Speaker 1 I am, it's, of course, the price is a number you put on something, but my point is, I'm not unethical. I'm not going to lie to get a deal done.

Speaker 1 I'm not going to lie to get you to oblige what I want you to oblige with. I'm going to be as truthful and as forthright as possible because when atonement comes, I don't want it to come attack me.

Speaker 1 So I'm very mindful of how I show up. You know, I do what I say and I say what I mean.
I live a really integrity-based life.

Speaker 1 But I also believe that second thing I'll tell you what I contribute or attribute my success and longevity to longevity would be believe that you deserve it in the universe or serve it.

Speaker 1 But you cannot spell the word deserve without serve. So serve means doing what you have to do, even when you don't want to do it.
Being willing to be the example.

Speaker 1 I'm not the person that's trying to tell you what to do, but I'm not willing to do it myself. I'm literally telling you, oh my God, do this, do this.
It worked for me. Oh my God, look at me.

Speaker 1 Look at where I was 10 years ago. Look at where I was 20 years ago.
I was on food stamps. I I was on section 8.
I was the one that went and filled out the paperwork.

Speaker 1 I was the one that had to get recertified. I was the one that had the food stamps and the peach tree card.
I'm the one that dropped out of school in the 10th grade.

Speaker 1 Wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute. So I believe that I have a responsibility to show up every day for whoever's watching.
I don't know who's watching. And thank God for the internet.

Speaker 1 I'm so grateful for the internet because now I'm everywhere. I'm on YouTube, co-story me.
I'm on Facebook, co-story me. I'm on TikTok, co-story me.

Speaker 1 And so my goal is that when you come see who I am, I give you something of value, something that's of service to who you are becoming.

Speaker 1 You know, so I just believe in showing up every day and doing my part to contribute to making this world a better place because there was no Stormy Wellington.

Speaker 1 When I was trying to find myself, when I wanted to believe that I could be a success, I always saw Oprah Wayne Free and Beyoncé.

Speaker 1 And I'm like, wait a minute. So I got to learn how to be a speaker.
Okay. I don't know if I could sing.
So I didn't have a lot of examples. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Who was the stripper that became successful? Okay, Eve,

Speaker 1 the singer, you know, okay, Lil Kim. So now I'm a network marketer that became successful.
I made millions of dollars in network marketing.

Speaker 1 So I'm that girl that you could look at as a hustler, turn multi-level marketer, turn businesswoman.

Speaker 1 I'm an investor. That's right.
I own a skincare line, perfect store on collection. I'm a mentor to the masses.
I have a community.

Speaker 1 I own real estate.

Speaker 1 I own a yacht. You know what I mean? I'm a best-selling of an author.
I have a mentorship program. I teach people how to create income with digital products.
I don't know if I told you that.

Speaker 1 I've had a million dollar day online with digital products. So I am a businesswoman now.

Speaker 1 And it's all because I wanted to be a businesswoman. That's right.

Speaker 2 You made a decision of who you wanted to be.

Speaker 1 You made a decision of who I wanted to be.

Speaker 2 And then you turned into that person.

Speaker 1 I'm still making a decision. I change my mind all the time.
Like today, I said I want to go blonde. This is my first day blonde.

Speaker 2 You look great. You look great.

Speaker 1 Comment and let me know. I look great.
That's it.

Speaker 2 Thank you.

Speaker 1 Let her know. Let me know.

Speaker 2 Only if you believe she looks great. That's the only comment we're looking for here.

Speaker 2 Talk a little bit here as we're kind of wrapping up this journey of innovating. I've done it.
You just talked about your longevity. There is no longevity without innovation.

Speaker 2 The way you started 10 years ago and who you are today and the best-selling author, you and I have shared stages together. You're a best-selling speaker.
People come from around the world to see you.

Speaker 2 They're watching you all the time on social media. Talk a lot about this because I think people,

Speaker 2 I don't think, I know they get caught up in the, this is the way to do it. This is who I need to be.
And that's that. It's never that way, right?

Speaker 2 Talk a little bit about the innovation component of what you've done over the last decade.

Speaker 1 Very good question, by the way.

Speaker 1 You know what?

Speaker 1 I went to an event and it was an event full of successful entrepreneurs that ran 500 million dollar corporations and billion dollar corporations. And this man, I can't remember his name.

Speaker 1 He ran a very successful loan company. They loaned out like over $250 million, right? And he goes and he walks up to me and he says,

Speaker 1 I know you. You're Coach Stormy.

Speaker 1 You've done incredible things in there with marketing. And I'm excited.
I'm like, yeah, yeah, yeah. That's me.
That's me. That's me.
Yep, yep. How you doing? How you know?

Speaker 1 I'm excited because he's a... very put together, polished white man.
And so I love when white people know me and then to go to jail.

Speaker 1 because of Section A. So I was excited.
He said, but I want you to know

Speaker 1 that everyone,

Speaker 1 when you become successful, will reach a saturation point.

Speaker 1 Let me repeat that. He said, I know you're in network marketing.
I know what you've done. He said, but you have reached a saturation point.

Speaker 1 Either people know you're in network marketing and they don't want to do it with you,

Speaker 1 with you, or they just don't want to do it at all.

Speaker 1 He said, so I think you're great, young lady, but your new goal should be to get into new industries so other people can know you in real estate, in investing, in crypto, in the oil industry.

Speaker 1 He said, branch out because you have reached a saturation point. And if you really do believe in what you're doing, that we're marketing, great.

Speaker 1 But everybody knows that you do it already. And they just either don't want to do it with you.
And they're not interested. He says, so go make yourself big.
So basically, get out of obscurity.

Speaker 1 Go and make yourself yourself big. Go somewhere else and find new people.
And so I say that to say, you know, you have to learn how to pivot. You either pivot into pity or pivot into prosperity.

Speaker 1 And I think that you choose, you get to choose. Like have fun.
I think that we're so busy trying to live based upon the opinions of others. But I've learned if you're bored with yourself.

Speaker 1 Everybody bored with you too. That's right.
So have fun. Play a game with your life.

Speaker 1 You know, observe yourself and go see other people and see what they do and learn from other people and don't be afraid to be innovative i say all the time people don't hate just innovate all right and so that is the mindset that i think every entrepreneur should have you should reinvent yourself every eight to 18 months you know you got mcdonald's they started selling salads and you know mcribs and you know when you see those type of things happening starbucks is supposed to be about coffee now they sell dadishes and sandwiches and so i think that that's a part of innovation.

Speaker 1 Yeah, that they're still Starbucks. You know, McDonald's still is known for the Big Mac, but

Speaker 1 chicken strips and salads. That's right.
I mean, who goes to McDonald's for a salad? I mean, no pun intended, but you feel me. It's about reinventing yourself, but still staying true to your core.

Speaker 2 That's right.

Speaker 1 And I think if you learn how to do that and you understand that we all will reach a saturation point, like I'm sure all the real estate dogs know you. Yeah.
Yeah. Yeah, for sure.

Speaker 1 I should know you because the network market has got a lot of of money. Yeah.
So instead of you, you know, hey, Stormy, you buy, you got 16 Birking bags. Why don't you instead of buying Birken bags?

Speaker 1 Why don't you buy some buildings?

Speaker 2 I came back after this.

Speaker 1 Imagine if you came in my world, you're still the real estate guy. You stayed the real estate guy, but now you're the real estate guy that teaches us, don't be stupid, y'all.

Speaker 1 Stop buying all these Birking bags. Your car is nice.
I love it. Thanks, Stormy.
Your car was $750,000. Man, you know what kind of real estate portfolio I could have got you was $750,000.

Speaker 1 So I feel like it's your responsibility

Speaker 1 to come over here with us.

Speaker 2 That's it. To teach us I'm in.
I'm sold.

Speaker 1 So we can now know, okay, Stormy, you're going to do Wellington Estates, which has been, you know, a concept for 10 years now. Okay, when are you going to do it already? I'm your guy.

Speaker 1 So I just feel like that's a part of innovation, getting a new industry so people could know who you are. Because if you love the people, truly love the people, you'll go anywhere to help the people.

Speaker 1 It doesn't matter where they are.

Speaker 2 That's right. So your next, by the way, if there was an audience, everyone would be standing and giving you a round of applause right at this moment, right? I like her.
And I've seen it.

Speaker 2 She gets these standing ovations. I've been there.

Speaker 2 Last question. Okay, okay.
Sounds like real estate's going to be a big play for you over the next decade. Yeah.

Speaker 2 Real estate's known. What's the other play that you want to make? Is it the 861 millionaires you want to develop? Is there some other, where's the next real estate's going to be a big play? What else?

Speaker 1 So I'm going to show people how to create wealth, generational wealth, through the industry of multilevel marketing. I love it.
We're going to get the cash flow, right, through multilevel marketing.

Speaker 1 So my first week in my company, 10 years ago, I made $50,000 my first week.

Speaker 1 My first two months in my company, 10 years ago, I made $135,000 cash.

Speaker 1 My first seven months in my company, 10 years ago, I made $1 million.

Speaker 1 My first year in my company, 10 years ago, I made 2.1 million. Today, in my bank account, I've earned over $51 million.
How can I keep that a secret? When When everybody, even real estate,

Speaker 1 oil tycoons, you go find cash, that level of cash. Why don't I have more real estate? So I'm going to show not just Stormy, not just the black people, but people, go get the cash flow.

Speaker 1 Not just network marketers. Come over here.
Let me show you how to get cash flow. Be healthy, build community, but take that money.
and invest it in real estate. So it all goes together.

Speaker 1 Health, health, health. This is one of my products.

Speaker 1 Longevity. I have all kind of nutritional supplements.
Wealth.

Speaker 1 Wealth, so you can get

Speaker 1 MRR.

Speaker 2 Yeah.

Speaker 1 Wealth and real estate. We got to get these hundred doors in Mississippi and we're going to find some more.
How do you get longevity? The greatest longevity tool is real estate.

Speaker 2 That's it.

Speaker 1 So it's like, hello, stormy. Doop, do.
Why nobody didn't say what is it? Your fault. You should have been, found me, and told me about this when I made $21 million in a year.

Speaker 1 It's your freaking fault that I don't own more houses.

Speaker 2 I own that. I own that.
Well, let's go starting today.

Speaker 1 So that's what I'm saying.

Speaker 1 So that's what it's about: showing people getting the cash flow, investing in the right place so we can have longevity, and we just continue doing it over and over again so we can continue breaking generational curses.

Speaker 2 That's what we're doing.

Speaker 2 That's what we're going to do. Let's go.
