Book I’m Currently Reading 🕮

“If people learn new ideas or see a problem from a new perspective, they no longer agree, so tribes based on agreement often discourage learning, questioning, and independent thought. Tribes based on alignment want to maximize each person's contribution, provided that they stay pointed in the same direction like magnetized iron filings.”
― Dave Logan, John King, Halee Fischer-Wright

Dinner With Friends🍽️

I can't wait to throw another dinner in October—this one will be in Vegas! I always look forward to these events because they're not just about getting together; they're also about meeting amazing people, exchanging true tales, and occasionally finding answers to the problems we've all been facing. It would truly be a pleasure to have you present and involved! Click me for details! 🥰

Some people know how to take the BULL by its Horns.

It may sound like a pun but that's exactly who Candace Horne is. 

As you get to know her story you will learn that through all of life’s adversity, she has stepped up in ways most others wouldn't.  From going back to school in her 30s to entering and becoming a force in the male-dominated Notes Real Estate field.

I watched a YouTube video of Candance a while ago that encapsulated her.  She was fairly new to the Notes field and was being interviewed by experts who clearly wanted to “talk to other experts”.  Candance adeptly guided the conversation and established…”right now I am an expert and being new to this field and in my newness, I've had more success than so many other so-called experts”

It's always good to have these types of people in your corner…but that’s not where our relationship started.

Candace and I first met about a year ago and we instantly clicked. At first, I thought it was just me but it was not—Candace just has that natural ability to connect with anyone. She has an incredible ability to help people feel safe, heard, and seen.

This was on full display at a Dinner with Friends where so many people reached out to ensure they had her contact information because they just loved being around her.

Her ability to help people feel comfortable pays dividends in her business as a Notes Investor where she is able to “convince” people to trust her with their capital as she invests it into real estate and brings high returns.
