Did you ever wish you can go back and talk to your teenage self and tell him or her that

everything will turn out okay?

If I can go back and talk to 17-year-old Jasmine, I would tell her that she'll be fine.

And that if she works hard and has the right attitude, she can do whatever she puts her

mind to.

And okay fine, I get it.

It might be impossible to speak to 17-year-old Jasmine.

Well, life took a funny, amazing turn because that is exactly what I told a group of high

schoolers last month.

Now before you kind of like pause the podcast or maybe you're going to move it forward,

I have to say, wait, let me back up.

Let me explain that the same message I tell them is the same message I would tell anybody

of any age.

So I was invited to speak at Spark U. This was an event hosted by Brand-min University

and the Rural Society.

And I was invited to speak to high school senior girls about the difference between building

a business with influence and being an influencer.

And yeah, you know, I sprinkled a little love in, a little tough love.

But I hope that when you listen to this keynote that you take to heart what I say because

sometimes, just sometimes us adults need to hear it too.

Hi ladies, how are you?

Okay, good, you know, I have to say, you could be anywhere else right now.
