[00:00:00]I call myself the Jewish mother dominatrix because you're going to do it.

[00:00:05]>> Leah Fish is the founder of CEO Rise and a leadership coach for entrepreneurs.

[00:00:10]From professional organizing to coaching 7figure business owners, >> clutter is a decision delayed.

[00:00:18]>> This is her story on the system.io podcast.

[00:00:21]>> Hi, I'm sitting down with Leia Fish with CEO Rise and a couple other endeavors.

[00:00:27]I'm going to let her lean into her nonprofit work as well. And I Leia, thanks for being here today.

[00:00:34]>> Holly, thanks so much for having me. I'm excited for this conversation.

[00:00:38]>> All right, Leia, we were chatting on uh here offline before we jumped in. And you gave me, you know, the spill on all the things that you've been doing through the years. started in 2002 with professional organizing, building out your own website, SEO, and I think the people listening probably love to hear how you've grown through the years. You know, you've been in the game longer than most people. So, how did you get your first start with just business in general and led you to becoming an online um business leader?

[00:01:08]>> I think it's pretty good story. Um, I had always traveled a lot and in January 2002, I had just come back from living abroad and I was trying to figure out what to do. I'd worked as a photographer in Dominican Republic and lived there and all different things. And my mother called and she said, "I've been listening to the radio. I figured it out. You're going to be an organizer."

[00:01:34]And this was the beginning of 2002. And I was like, "Sounds great. what's that?

[00:01:41]Uh because back then professional organizers, even though they existed, it really they weren't really a thing. So, um she had been listening to an interview with a professional organizer and the person said, "Clutter is a decision delayed." And my mother thought of her daughter with a degree in philosophy. She was like, "Oh, that is so Leia." And she was right. It was so Leia. I was fascinated by the concept.

[00:02:08]And two weeks later, she had gotten me my first job uh doing an estate cleaning for some friends of the family who had passed away.

[00:02:18]And everyone was like, "How do you know how to do this?" You know, I was cleaning the house, preparing it, meeting with realtor, all all of these different things, getting a dumpster, um arranging with the family what things they were keeping, having lists, all these things. And I was like, "Well, what do you mean? like it's just what you you said you want to sell the house, this is what we need to do. And they were like, "Yeah, this isn't obvious to everyone." And so they referred me and it just became a referral machine. Um, fun fact, I started charging $40 an hour back then in 2002.

[00:02:54]Uh, and I would go to people's houses, take taxis. When I look back, I'm like, how was I doing this? I was going to strangers homes that I'd never met. and you know um and then I started to transform the way that I worked. Um basically realizing that it worked better when I did less for people unless it was an estate cleaning.

[00:03:15]And anyway, I I ultimately ended up specializing working with hoarders in uh threatened with eviction in New York City and was ultimately featured on the show Hoarding Buried Alive. I don't recommend anybody watch that episode, but I was and um and and you know, we were talking about SEO, which just as a sidebar, I'm very interested in. And the reason the producer found me was because I had taken some lessons in 2007 about SEO. And so I worked on the SEO of my website a lot. And that and and when you put back then professional organizer NYC, I was the first one who came up. So definitely recommend SEO for everyone's websites.

[00:04:00]>> Excellent. Excellent. And I and a question here. Do you think SEO has died in the recent years or it's still just as alive but it's a different type of game?

[00:04:10]>> I'm no expert at it. I'm just very interested in it in it. Um but SEO definitely hasn't died. Um you know 92 I think percent of people don't go past the first page on Google. Most people skip the sponsored results um and then they look at the top like you know three, four or five of results that come up.

[00:04:34]>> Um unless they're looking for something very specific. If I were searching your name and you didn't come up, I would search continue to other pages.

[00:04:41]>> But those top three that come up, that's SEO. And now there's this whole thing of, you know, SEO with AI um recommended, you know, by by whatever AI you're using. So having >> a, you know, a website with a good authority score, ranking for keywords, this is all very, very valuable. And yes, >> like I was telling a client, it's something kind of like investing in a bank that you do the investment and then it grows on its own. you know, you there's there's things you can always be doing, but your authority score is going to improve over time um when you have a fast uh loading speed and things like that versus if you don't and then you're there, you know, the the search engines want to give their customers a good experience and if your website isn't good, they don't want to show you because it makes them look bad like any referral. So, y >> there's there's a lot of things, but really well, I I get so excited about it and it's not even my business, but just a lot of people make a lot of mistakes with SEO a lot and most of them are very easy to fix. Um, my assistant is an SEO expert and we do that with some of my clients and it's just amazing. We'll look at like really big websites and just for fun to learn things and they have such like basic errors going on.

[00:06:11]It's pretty amazing. But, you know, their reputation makes up for their website errors. Anyway, it's pretty fun if you're into that kind of thing and I highly recommend you know doing SEO for every website.

[00:06:24]>> Yeah, I Well, I I love that that can be a springboard, you know, for your journey. you wanted to get online, you know, start marketing yourself. You used SEO to get there and you're still in the game today. And so, uh, you started doing the the hoarding and the decluttering and being a professional organizer. Uh, what led you to, you know, client relationship management systems because I believe that's how you use system.io.io, right? Like doing is as a CRM program.

[00:06:53]>> Well, um, I started teaching online. I went from doing very very hands-on professional organizing uh actually back in 2013 I was using a program called Fuse precursor to to Zoom uh to teach online courses because what I realized was that so much back then it was I was teaching organizing courses um which I still very much use in specializing with neurode divergent people what I call ADHDish because people can have many of you know difficulty focusing overwhelm, negative selft talk. There's so many things that people associate with ADHD, but there's, you know, my clients have had, you know, brain injuries or menopause or like traumatic, you know, different things that appear like ADHD. Anyway, the point is is that >> um and what I realized was that people needed to be in their environments to actually do the organizing. And so I started teaching online in 2013.

[00:07:57]um rather than going to each person's home or office, this gave me the opportunity, as they say now, one to many to take the distilled principles that I'd gotten from all of these thousands of hours of working with people and teach people simple tools to to organize and to get out of their own way, their own overwhelm to break through >> really the emotional blocks and the confusion and overwhelm to actually start organizing izing and it it just made more sense to me to do it online um so that everyone in the class could be in their own homes doing the work in the sessions. Um and so that transformed over time um to be doing what I'm doing now. Um because over time um sidebar I know this isn't answering your question about community management but this is how I went online. So anyway, um >> yeah, >> but um and and when I started teaching online, I had um gotten involved with Infusionoft, a back-end system that I had learned about because I was starting to learn about teaching online. And so they were like, you have to have a CRM.

[00:09:10]Um and Infusionoft at the time was kind of the number one.

[00:09:16]>> Yeah.

[00:09:16]>> So I thought, oh my gosh, things are going so well. I have to get the best.

[00:09:20]Um, and I was actually with Infusion Soft for 10 years. I've now been with System STEM for almost three. Um, and I never used most of their features. I really wasn't an online entrepreneur. I was just teaching online. It's with System now that I've started to do some online things uh like ads and funnels and that kind of thing. Um, but whatever kind of business you have, it's important to have a way to charge your customers that your customer buys something, they get an email right away. There's a thank you page after >> their card is processed. You know, these are basic things that, you know, when I talk to beginner clients, a lot of them have have had businesses or or been charging people for many years, but they don't even have that really simple thing set up. And it's not to throw shade at them for not having it, but it just makes it so much harder for them. So the reason that I started with infusionoft even before I was making six figures was because the idea was that it would be easy. It would be easy to scale. It would be easy to grow to not have to think about all these little things. And that's really the idea of of any CRM with a million bajillion more things that you can, you know, do if you want to. But the basic idea is that you can automate simple things like a customer purchasing something and them getting the information or the access to a course that they need.

[00:10:50]>> Okay. Okay. Yeah. And so you you were a professional organizer and then uh when did you segue into being like a leadership coach here where all those principles and you distilled it like what was that catalyst year that kind of shifted into being a coach for business leaders?

[00:11:07]So I actually went through a very dark time uh myself personally um where I I had started to build a lot of business success and actually I was making more uh than anyone I knew per hour. I went from earning $40 an hour to $275 an hour, you know, over a decade ago. Um, but it started to really highlight the difference of, you know, I was like, "Wait a minute. I just kind of out of nowhere was able to build business success, but that deep dream that I'd had all those years of having a foreign husband and children, I couldn't do it. Um, I could not make it happen."

[00:11:49]And here I was helping all my clients achieve, you know, these wild goals of whatever it was. And so I went through this period where I kind of shut down and I was going to give up completely.

[00:12:02]Um, and I was like, well, I just can't leave a mess behind. You know, I had helped so many people with estate cleanings. I knew that the effect on the family going through an estate cleaning is often many, many, many times more difficult than the actual death of the person.

[00:12:20]It's super intimate, super overwhelming.

[00:12:23]you know, we don't think about how much stuff we have, but we have a lot, every single one of us. Um, and to think about someone else, whether it's a stranger or your family member, going through every single thing. I was like, I don't want that for my family. So, I started >> doing that for myself, going through everything, making those delayed decisions, right? And it was really hard. And, you know, before it had been easy helping others do it, but for myself, of course, it was harder. Um and and that that whole process was what got me interested in neuroscience and psychology. Um and I started learning a lot more about all this stuff. Um but because I was in this like I don't care period and I wasn't looking for clients.

[00:13:06]I wasn't in a like I have to get clients, I have to grow my business. I was really just kind of pulled back and doing my own thing which little did I know was really changing my identity.

[00:13:17]and people started reaching out to me who were business owners of much bigger businesses. They weren't people looking for hoarders, you know, for help with hoarders.

[00:13:27]>> Somehow, as my identity changed as someone who like didn't care, um, but was also cleaning up the clutter of the past of my life, I was making it possible for me to be in a new future.

[00:13:41]And so, people started reaching out to me. They were business owners. Oh, I heard about you. They would often say they heard about me from people I didn't even know. I was like, "Oh, great." You know, um and um and and they were owners of in the beginning really sevenf figureure business owners. And when I started working with them, I was like, "Okay." So, I started working um with a few and I realized that it was the very same principles because when you're working with people who kind of are in their own way and many of them did have what at the time it was all ADD, it wasn't ADHD. Um but >> um some of them said, you know, I have ADD and I heard that you could help me and I realized it was those very same principles. You know, hoarding is a very extreme case of something, of being in your own way, not being able to make decisions. But ultimately, I was helping them do the very exact same thing of achieve goals, of handle all those details that were overwhelming, of clarify what they were trying to do, and then ultimately achieve it. And I have a number of pretty impressive uh transformation of business owners, some of whom people have heard of. Um where they were doing what they were doing and then after our work together they were able to really explode, you know, what they were doing because things were automated, they were clear, they weren't in their own way, you know, all of all of that.

[00:15:09]>> Okay. Wow, that's phenomenal. I'm like, okay, when can I book you? uh 41 diagnosed book a call.

[00:15:17]>> Yeah, exactly. I I was diagnosed with ADHD at 41 and um I can definitely see how your work is definitely transforming people and helping people. So let's talk about the back end and how you're using you you know you shifted from um that software infusion soft to system. How is system helping you operate in this business the CEO rise?

[00:15:41]So most of the work that I do it's in a way I'm still I'm moving out of that but I'm still in the situation that I was in where I'm really serving clients very very deeply. I'm not doing >> massive scaling um which I'm interested in but I've always come from a you know each customer is super important perspective. My grandmother was a self-taught entrepreneur. Um, and she had the number one uh jewelry store where she had no experience with that, but she became a jewelry designer and own a jewel jewelry store owner. Um, an immigrant in this country and, you know, learning English, taught herself everything. And how did she become number one? the mayor went to her of Indianapolis because, you know, she gave great customer service and um she was known for, you know, she would make the customer happy. Um >> and so that's more the philosophy that I come from than, you know, massive scaling. So my business is still much more around actual customer experiences.

[00:16:47]We meet live. My sessions are live because live accountability for people who struggle with overwhelm and um you know clutter, not moving forward on their dreams, not launching that program, not sending that email, not sending that proposal. That's my specialty, right? And and live support, there's just nothing like it. And there's it's great to have accountability partnerships and all of that, but you know, I call myself the Jewish mother dominatrix because you're gonna do it if you want to and you're in my world. Oh honey, you're doing it. So um but the CRM side of it, so we have, you know, automated um the ability to send emails. I don't really use CRM uh in the way that they're capable of being used with a lot of, you know, decision diamonds. If someone has this tag, send them this email. If they haven't done this, do that. Like, there's a lot of capabilities about CRM that I definitely understand, but I don't take advantage of because that's just not how my business is. However, in the last uh couple of years, I've started toying with ads. I've learned a lot more about ads and I'm in the process of meeting new people and offering them things and have been I have one funnel built out with you know order b upsell downell um so that you know there's more opportunities to increase the you know uh how much the client is paying when they meet you to offset your cost of um of the ads. So, that's something that I'm I'm new to. Um, but that's something that a CRM is absolutely key to being able to do. And I don't know about now, but you know, not all CRM offered uh order bumps, upsells, downells. Not everyone did. I can't speak for every CRM, but system definitely does. And um because of that, I've been able to learn and start tinkering with that.

[00:18:46]>> Okay. And uh you're mentioning the upsells and downells. Would you be willing to show the back end of your dashboard showing us one of these funnels that you've uh built out with system?

[00:18:54]>> Yeah, sure. Um I only have one that's fully built out like that. Let me share screen here that is fully built out like that. So this is the ADHD entrepreneurs kitchen reset. Um and so you can see so I'll open the um the page here. Um, and this is uh the page and system really is great um for this is me on uh courting buried alive that I was just mentioning. Um and so you know building out the page is something that takes effort uh as well definitely. Um, but so then there's the um, so you can see there's a um, Right. So then you go to the order form. Oh, this is >> is that thank you page.

[00:19:49]>> Wait, hold on a second. I did that wrong. Hold on. I don't know why that just happened.

[00:19:55]Um, this isn't even the All right. Well, you'll delete that part. All right. So, you have the page. Um, and then there's the upsell page. So, this is something that you're offering them that is a great uh um you know, they can add this to their order um or they can skip it, right? So, I'm sure most of us have gone through some kind of process where they're like, "But wait, would you like to do this?

[00:20:22]This will make your experience so much better." Um now, at the time, I was also offering another upsell. Um, so you can do as many upsells as you want here. Um, this one actually doesn't have a downell. That's something that I'm just learning about right now. But so basically, you know, there's the sales page. Um, you can offer an upsell where it's like, would you like to add this? Would you like to add this? Would you like to add this? Right? Would you like to add this?

[00:20:53]Now, some people get annoyed with them, but um you know, I'm learning more um about online entrepreneurship of uh reaching cold audiences. And even if people don't buy your upsells, which ideally they do, like I said, because they're paying more, but ideally they're getting a much better experience, they're still learning about your offers. they're learning it. You know, having upsells as a way to teach people about different things you offer where someone might be like, >> "Oh my gosh, you're doing a live event in Manhattan. That's cool. Oh my gosh, available that day, but like I'm going to keep this in mind for the future." Or they're like, "Oh my gosh, I'm free.

[00:21:30]Like, I'm coming." You know, where they were just meeting you to learn how to clean their kitchen in a compassionate way, you know? Mhm.

[00:21:38]>> Um, >> and then you can also, like I was saying, do downells, which I'm only just learning about right now, where someone maybe doesn't want this, you can say, okay, if you don't want that, what about if you did this? And the downell could be the same thing for a smaller price, or it could be a smaller version um of what you're what you're offering. So, >> okay.

[00:21:59]>> Uh, yeah. And then at the end, you know, there's the thank you page. Um and and system has a cool thing where let me see if this one has it on it. Um no this one doesn't uh because this is an older we worked on this in the back but um where you um can see what you uh paid for it.

[00:22:18]It's just something that you add on uh to the thank you page and it shows paid which I think is great.

[00:22:25]>> You know most things that I've purchased online it just says thank you. it doesn't. And sometimes, you know, you've gone through the the um upsells and you've added things and then you're like, "Wait, how much did I just pay for this thing?" And sometimes there's a delay waiting for the receipt. And as someone with ADHD myself, I can be like, "Oh my gosh, what what did I just do?" You know? So, it's it's great to be able to see what you paid right there on the thank you page.

[00:22:51]And that is something that System offered. And so, and something that's great that system has that not all pages have is that you can add to the thank you page what the total cost of their order was. Um, and they can see what they actually purchased. And as someone with ADHD myself and I buy things online and I buy upselles and sometimes there's a delay getting the uh receipt and then I'm like, "Wait, what did I just buy?

[00:23:16]Did it go through? I don't know." And so having that right there on the thank you page, what you purchase, it's like, "Okay, good. I'm good.

[00:23:24]>> Oh, yeah. That's that instantaneous of like, okay, it's gratification, but also, okay, knowledge bank that away.

[00:23:30]Make sure I can file that because yeah, you know, we get that whole like girl math and we forget that we order something five days ago and it pops up and we're like, what was that for? So, I appreciate that as well.

[00:23:41]>> And it's also good to take a thank you to take a screenshot of the thank you page because sometimes I've had I have had issues with online, you know, people I don't know. the whole point of ads, right, of meeting cold audiences where I said, you know, I purchased this and they were like, we don't have a record of that. And luckily, I had a screenshot of the thank you page and they were like, oh my gosh, let us find your order.

[00:24:04]>> Yeah. Okay. Yeah, that's very helpful as well, being able to use that as like a documentation support ticket system. Um, I I I'm all about documentation and being able to track your steps through that customer journey. Now, there is also something else that you mentioned about like the lifetime value and leaning into that customer service of using something like system and can you talk about how you're able to retain clients to create such a high lifetime value for your um you know clients, your customers, and ultimately the people you care about working with.

[00:24:40]>> Yeah. My I have, as every coach I've ever worked with, I'm really big into hiring coaches because being around people who know more than us, I think, is really important as well as having the support, but the ability to learn from people who've gone before us and have done it. And um you know I I am into Alex Hormoszi and Leila Hormosi and I've seen inter or you know uh their events that they do at acquisition.com where people are talking about their lifetime value of a customer. Um and sometimes they're $69 or $47 or $80.

[00:25:23]And the lifetime, the average lifetime value of my customer is around $6,000.

[00:25:28]Um, I don't have a huge audience base, but I take really good care of my customers. I give them great value and they are able to continue to get value from the work that I offer. um the average client has been with me for seven years not because it doesn't work but because for example in my program house have done my signature program shameless uh shameless mention right there um you know people are at whatever point they're at and they're like oh I need to declutter this or I need to get my taxes in order. It's a huge thing that I help my clients with and they're really stressed and overwhelmed and they think, "Let me join the program and just handle this." But then they do that much to their own surprise. Usually much faster than they thought. Not always.

[00:26:16]Sometimes it's more complicated than they thought. And then they think like, "Well, now I kind of want to do this other thing." And having the live accountability and support is what keeps people there. I pay attention to people when people say, "Oh, I'm working on this or I have to finish because I'm going on vacation." I teach my programs live. So when they come back, I mean, there is an online component that they can go through on their own time. Um, whenever they want, they can use the sessions that are recorded. Um, but when they come back, I say like, "Oh, how was your vacation, Holly?" You know, and that matters. You know, I've learned a lot about, >> you know, paying attention to people. If you read the book How to Win Friends and Influence People, the number one book besides the Bible that ever sold, >> um, you know, it that one and, you know, Think and Grow Rich like they're about like both of those are about, you know, clarity, having good relationships with your customers, with people, right? And I think a lot of the the modern way of influencers and this and that >> is >> is to not really have relationships with your customers. I was just watching Mark Manson who I think is really brilliant and I watched this video and he was talking about the science behind being the average of the five people you spend the most time with. And it was so sad.

[00:27:41]There were like 56 comments and most of them were, "Well, what if I spend all my time alone?" you know, and it's like people aren't really getting the the interactivity, the important human connection that they need. So, with all of this, you know, I'm a 20-year-old YouTuber with 20 million subscribers making a gazillion dollars a day, like that's great, but a couple things happen. One, people feel like their business sucks because they're only making $80,000 a year or something.

[00:28:12]Like, they can only feed their family.

[00:28:14]Hello. like that matters, you know, >> it does.

[00:28:19]>> Um, but also, you know, the whole idea of what a successful business is has been totally blown out of proportion >> because I think a lot of people are going for the volume when they don't even have the backend set up. They can't even, you know, look at a customer's profile like, "Oh my gosh, you didn't get the email. Oh my gosh, the email went into spam. Let me resend you that email." like there's so many missing pieces of actually caring about the customers. Um, and so no one wants to feel like just a number. And so in a lot of these programs, you know, it's all on the customer to do all of the work themselves. There's not in a lot of them there's not a live component. Sometimes there is, but um, it's with massive volume. Um, and I think especially for people with ADHD like ourselves, um, it's important to feel like somebody cares. You know, I think that's true of every human.

[00:29:12]>> But it's important to feel like somebody cares and somebody understands, >> you know, how hard it can be for us, like the the negative spirals that we have to get out of, like you were saying, you have to get out of that.

[00:29:24]Take your kids to school, show up, do a podcast, like you know, while while simultaneously perhaps not saying that you are, but like dealing with like deep overwhelm that day, you know. So having the live component helps people really um do the things in a way that works for them because they feel seen and understood and supported and all of a sudden they go to the task and they can fly.

[00:29:49]>> Yes. I love that. I love how you say they can fly because that's that's that's it. It feels like you're chained to the ground and you can't move forward and you give them that the wind in their wings to keep going. I appreciate that.

[00:30:02]So, as we um kind of land the plane here, uh because you got to go coach, you got to go be live with those um students and the customers. Uh I'd love to know what is the gift that all of this has given you? Entrepreneurship.

[00:30:16]What is the gift that it's given you?

[00:30:19]>> I mean, as they say, entrepreneurship is not for the faint of heart. Um it is hard. It is um constantly teaching you new things. Like I never thought that I would have to learn that if your DNS record for your email isn't proper properly set up or there's a tech glitch, your emails are going into promotions or spam and then you wonder why people aren't opening your emails.

[00:30:46]Like there's so much behind the scenes that I think can feel intimidating to people. But I guess I would say two things um for kind of the takeaway of the program or of this of this interview is number one, start with one thing and build it out. Like if you want to have a funnel or you want to have one offer, forget all the upsells and downells and arter bumps. Like you can add those later. You don't have to worry about those. The number one thing I teach my clients, right, hashtag ADHD, is to break their their projects into tiny tiny doable tasks, right? You've heard it before, >> but people don't do it. So, people are like, I can't build that whole thing.

[00:31:27]And it's like, right, because you don't even have a way to build, you know, an automated email or a direct email. I send direct emails all the time. You know, mine aren't pres-scheduled. I don't even do that, right? many many online entrepreneurs, it's all automated. I'm sending a direct email most of the time. I know it's not efficient, but you know what? That works for me in my business right now. And so what I say on my website, I really really mean this from the bottom of my heart, you know, is um is are you ready to defy the odds and grow your business your weird and wild way? It's like >> yeah, >> that really like when we can own that um we are maybe not thinking the way other people are. We're struggling thing with things that are different doesn't mean that we can't still succeed. It's just that we have to learn how we need it to be for us to >> um so that's one I'm going to say three.

[00:32:25]Number two, get help. You know, I tell all my clients, hire an assistant, a virtual assistant, two hours a week. I don't care who you are, two hours a week. You can find someone in another country where paying them $35$5 an hour really makes a difference to them if that's all you can afford. But having that consistency and learning to delegate, learning to understand what you do and explain it to someone else is absolutely invaluable.

[00:32:53]>> Yeah.

[00:32:53]>> And and and that can grow from there.

[00:32:55]And that you know that person whether it's them or someone else, it can grow and you say, "Okay, here's the things I need done." you learn how to build SOPs to standard operating procedures by by practicing with very little things.

[00:33:08]That's how you grow in your skill. Um, and number three, don't wait. You know, they always say and they've been saying for a long time, there's never been an easier time to come online, but whether come online or start your business that's brickandmortar, it really doesn't matter. um or you want to have children or you want to take that trip you've always wanted to do just in life don't wait right don't wait because you didn't even look at the price of tickets you didn't even put it into you know Google flights or sky scanner like just do that first thing and look at what it is you might be surprised I've done this with so many clients where literally it was helping them lose weight it was helping them go on a dream trip and they hadn't felt capable because the whole thing felt so huge they didn't look at the price of the ticket, right? Or they didn't even, you know, I don't know, look at their schedule when they could walk for 20 minutes, right? So, it's like don't wait. Look for the tiniest thing you can do and do that because once you've done that, especially if it's something you've been avoiding, you will be different by virtue of having done that. So, don't wait. the genius thing you can and as they say let's go >> I I mean that's full circle from the very beginning of the interview you said clutter is just delayed decisions all the way to right here let's stop waiting and if someone is ready to fly how can they find you after this interview >> so my website is ceorise.com and they can come they can join a single session I can give you the link um they can check out uh a session in House of Done. As of the recording of this workshop, I have a of this as of the recording of this podcast. I have a workshop coming up called Finally Do the Thing workshop, very on brand for everything we've been talking about. Um and they can get an early bird. It's three intense hours with myself and my community where you're going to learn a lot of things that include neuroscience psychology that I've been working on for you know two over two decades and you're going to be amazed how much you actually get done right there in the workshop. So highly encourage you to check that out.

[00:35:28]Um finally do the thing workshop. I'll give you the link Holly and you can always check out my website um corrise.com.

[00:35:36]>> Awesome. Awesome. And uh just cuz I want people to know, can you put a little plug for your nonprofit um and community center here?

[00:35:44]>> I'd be glad to. Um my husband I my husband is from, you know, that that foreign husband I mentioned. I did meet him um had the children and uh he's from Cartahena, Colombia. And when my business really started growing um and I did cross six figures and more, I was able to um you know, we felt very very grateful.

[00:36:07]And so we started an initiative in 2000 uh October 1st, 2020 of just delivering meals uh um of delivering groceries to people who were hit hard by the pandemic and really didn't have any way to feed their families. And over time that grew and in 2022 we formally established our charity. I'll um just pull it up real quick so people can see it. Um it's called Kulibar Cartahena Cultivate uh Cartahena. Um and and I can't guarantee it everywhere in the world but speaking of SEO most places in the world uh if you put um charity uh Cartahena Colombia we do come up as number one. So like I said, highly recommend um and yeah, we are in the process of actually building a community center uh right now. So um we um provide meals to people. We do meals on wheels for seniors. Um we have the opportunity to sponsor a family so that they get um meals uh you know groceries every week um and um music lessons, English lessons. we're going to be providing financial literacy. So, um it's it's really exciting and all of that was made possible by just continuing to focus on doing what I was doing, serve the customer as best I could. Um and, you know, allow people to come to me and continuing to make it easier for myself along the way allows more people to come and have a good experience. So, can't recommend starting today to do that thing you've been holding off on.
