Hey guys, Eric Sue here. So the following is a clip from the leveling up founders mastermind that happened in Beverly Hills and you're going to hear from some amazing founders, some amazing marketers and investors and this was a private event that happened.

So again, you'll get a preview of it. If you want to learn more, you can go to leveling up calm slash founders once again, leveling up calm slash founders and without further ado, enjoy the clip.

For those of you who don't know, I am a get in the room kind of girl. My only objective is to get in the room and I want to be the dumbest person in every room and the poorest person on every yacht.

So ladies and gentlemen, I'm in great company. Thank you for having me speak about having beer budget and champagne taste.

So I have to tell you that my goal has always been get in the room. However, you can. So just imagine my surprise and delight when last year I'm in Beverly Hills with Eric and Neil and the hermosies and Cody Sanchez and I'm like, oh girl, guess what just happened. You made it. You made it.

Every room you have been unqualified, unprepared, uneducated, unfunded and unconnected. Guess what? You got from the east side to the west side.

Let's go and if you're not from LA, LA is a quadrant of four. Self side darker folk. East side brown folk west side rich folk. So dad and mom met in East Los Angeles. My dad's from Mexico. My mom's from Puerto Rico. They raised five kids on nothing.

But let me just tell you there is nothing better than government issued Pinto beans on a homemade corn tortilla with a little bit of cheese sprinkled on top. Let me just tell you that my family has always known how to make a dollar out of 15 cents.

I don't know about you, but that is the best business lesson I have ever been given because watch me get to billions and still be out here with my corn tortillas and beans. Why? I want to build wealth.

More than that, I want to teach other people how to do the same thing. My name is Jasmine star and my journey has been backwards ugly as all get out. But I've been telling you I'm picking up tiny stones along the way to build the castle of my dreams. I dropped out of UCLA law school. I was there on a full ride scholarship.

My mom had a relapse of brain cancer. I'm telling you my life got flipped upside down and it forced me at 25 years old staring at my mother who was 50 and say, do I want to die a lawyer? No, not at all. I was looking at my jurors doctorate as a key out of the hood when I didn't even want to be a lawyer.

So I marry my high school sweetheart in three months because my mom had a relapse and the doctor said she wouldn't make it. I have to tell you it's been a hard week for my family, but I drove home last night to talk with my mom. She is a walking miracle. But it became my north star asking myself, why am I doing things I don't want to do.

When a new husband in high school sweetheart says, if you could do anything in the rest of your life, what would it be? And I said, I want to be a photographer. Okay, you don't own a camera. I know, but I have this thing called the Internet and the University of Google. I think I can figure it out. And let me tell you, I said, I'll go back and get my scholarships. Give me a year. In the year, I built a six figure revenue stream and in this room, I don't get out of bed for six figures. I know.

For a girl who's daddy, with a family of seven, didn't make $100,000 in three years. Let me just tell you, I'm taking you to claim jumper. I'm buying the whole family dinner. This wasn't, oh, I found money. This was a whole life changed.

That was the biggest I ever thought until I started a blog because I couldn't afford a website. And I just started blogging about my journey of becoming not just a creator with the camera, but as a business woman. When nobody said, you could have a business. I was 26 years old before I ever believed I could do something like that.

I was destined to sit at a desk. I was destined to sit at the top of a building being like, oh, corner office is as big as I can dream. Guess what? I am so happy that I am not city. I am so happy that my version of success is to sit at home and sweatpants and turn on an iPhone and be like, let's make some money.

Okay, I start creating content unbeknownst to what the advent of content creation was going to be. People started paying me to talk about their products, being like, how much do you charge? How much do you have? Exactly. That's my price because I'm going to be doing this anyway.

And all of a sudden, I got really good at it. The businesses said, we want to pay you to do that. And I was like, no, I don't want to do that anymore. And they said, can you consult with us? And I was like, how much do you go pay?

Funny, that's what I charge. So I started consulting other businesses and their marketing and branding teams to be doing this thing online until I realized that I was trading time for dollars and I didn't want to build an agency.

I was like, what do I do next? I want to scale the thing I know. Why? Because I promised my mom and God.

She's an US-C Norse hospital new year's Eve. 2005. My mom is brought out from her second brain surgery. And I am looking at her and we are not talking about the things that she had done with her life.

She is talking about the things that she hadn't done. She didn't write a children's book. She didn't go to Austria. She had never phoned business class.
