  • Michelle Obama Opens Up: Her Struggle To Feel Like She's “Enough,” Mental Health in the White House & Lessons from Childhood w/ Craig Robinson
    May 5 2025

    Leave an Amazon Rating or Review for my New York Times Bestselling book, Make Money Easy!

    Michelle Obama and her brother Craig Robinson reveal how growing up in a tiny Chicago apartment shaped their values and outlook on life. From Craig "vetting" Barack Obama during a pickup basketball game to Michelle navigating the pressures of the White House, their conversation uncovers how family bonds grounded them through extraordinary circumstances. What makes this sibling dynamic special isn't just their impressive achievements but their authentic connection - Craig bringing lightness and joy while Michelle delivers wisdom and perspective. Their shared belief that "home is about who's there, not where you are" resonates deeply as they explain how they raised confident children amid extreme privilege and spotlight by teaching them that success comes from character, not circumstance.

    Get your seat for Dean & Tony Robbins’s Event: Thrive in 2025

    Leave an Amazon Review for my New York Times Bestselling book, Make Money Easy!

    In the face of economic uncertainty, real estate mogul and entrepreneur Dean Graziosi reveals how internal work trumps external tactics when building a recession-proof future. Having navigated multiple economic downturns over his 40-year business career, Dean shares a surprising truth – most Fortune 500 companies were started during recessions when others sat paralyzed by fear. Through raw stories of his challenging childhood with an abusive father and his journey to financial freedom, Dean explains why money is like oxygen: when you lack it, it consumes your thoughts. But once you secure it, you must face the deeper work of healing. His vulnerable admission that he initially thought his pain was the source of his drive offers a powerful lesson for anyone using past trauma as fuel for success.

    Apr 30 2025

    Leave an Amazon Review for my New York Times Bestselling book, Make Money Easy!

    Despite her massive success on Pretty Little Liars and millions of adoring fans, Lucy Hale spent years battling darkness and addiction while in the spotlight. After hitting rock bottom three years ago, Lucy embarked on a sobriety journey that reconnected her with the spiritual awareness she'd lost along the way. With candid honesty, she describes how fame intensified her inner struggles and recounts a pivotal spiritual awakening in Austin, Texas that changed everything. Lucy's transformation from shame-filled people-pleaser to authentic truth-seeker offers profound insights about worthiness, alignment, and the courage to disappoint others before disappointing yourself.
