it really, again, does come down to squad and who you're surrounded by. So when you hear other people

begin to talk about their successes, when you hear people articulate their goals and then share

when they achieve those goals, that's empowering.

Welcome to the Hello Seven podcast. I'm your host, Rachel Rogers, wife, mother to four children, a lover of Beyonce, coffee drinker, and Afro wearer. And I just happen to be the CEO of a seven figure business. I am on a mission to help every woman I meet become a millionaire.

If you want to make more money, you are in the right place. Let's get it going.

So, hello, you are rocking with the Hello Seven coaches today. I'm Latandra Murray, and I'm the resident coach for Hello 7. And I'm C. Renee Washington, the community

coach for Hello 7. Yay. I'm so glad we're here together today, Renee. So it's really funny. So when we

think about it as coaches, we spend a lot of time working with our clients on strategy as well as mindset.

But a lot of what we do really comes down to recognizing and helping clients,

clients themselves recognize and release the stories that hold them back in business and in life.

And so as Renee and I were talking about this, you know, it's funny.

As black women in particular, we realize there are stories that we carry internally,

but there are also narratives that exist outside of us that still shape and guide and really direct our attention, our energy,

and our efforts. Absolutely. And it is Black History Month. And so it is particularly present in our

minds, you know, where we've been, where we are now.

And, you know, I love quotes.

And in preparing for this podcast, I came across this quote, what's past is prologue.

And that is from Shakespeare's play, The Tempest, and it was used by one of the characters to suggest that all that had happened before led him and another character to do what they were going to do, which was commit murder.

Yeah, and LaTadra and I were talking about that. And it's like, isn't this what we do?

We murder our dreams based on these old stories and old narratives.

And one of my favorite questions to myself and to clients is, who said?

Who said it?
