Summary
Today we meet a coaching student who has just had her first five figure sales month and she's thrilled by the rapid progress she's seeing as a ProvenAmazonCourse.com student. They are a foster family and her big "WHY" is to be able to be home and continue living out their calling to foster even more children (they've had 25 so far!)
The first several minutes of the episode are a compelling backstory as to why it means to much to her to have finally found a great business she can do from home and how much this community and our training has had a major impact on their family.

| 0:28.8 | her into our community, some of the struggles that she had with her career, wanting to be home |
