I first heard of Jen. It was like January 2021. Everyone's locked in their houses. And I have a friend

Nick Peterson who's like, hey, you should come on clubhouse. And so I'm like, all right. I don't know. I don't know. And by the way, I'm like a total analog entrepreneur. I don't know anything about digital. I don't know anything about like a lot of the folks in like the different worlds of coaching and training and influencing and branding and all that stuff. Like I'm like straight up guy. My business was a $200 million mortgage servicing platform. It was like this was all news like new to me. I didn't know anybody. And so I go on there and I'm like, what the fuck is this? And I'm checking it out. And I end up in a room with Gary Henderson and all these amazing people are in there.

And I meet Chris Winfield and Jen Gottlieb on there. And I was like, and I hear them talking. I'm like, wow, they're really interesting. And so I start kind of like hanging out and meeting more people. And before I know it, I'm on the platform. Like, I'm not lying. I was on it like 24 hours a day. I would leave my phone on just to collect, like, listeners and, like, go on stage and stuff.

And, but I met some of me. from like, I'm not lying. I was on it like 24 hours a day. I would leave my phone on just to collect

like listeners and like go on stage and stuff. And, but I met some amazing people, some super

amazing people. And for, um, for like for context, the greatness machine was launched on Clubhouse.

And we had, I don't know, it was like 30 or 40,000 people come into the come into the room and i spoke to your husband chris about it because mike mccalowitz i interviewed him on clubhouse for the launch of the show so it was very cool it was and then that quickly faded i was like everyone kind of jumped off the platform but that was how i was introduced to you and your work and then you were in you were being interviewedaha, who were part of her network. And I was like, man, I should have Jen come on the Joe. She has such an interesting background. So I'm so grateful to have you here today. I'm so excited to be here. And I have so many relationships that started on Clubhouse. So Clubhouse definitely had a really big, like a really big influence on my

entrepreneurial life. Like, I'm so grateful for Clubhouse. It doesn't exist really. I mean,

I think it exists. I don't really know what people are doing. But it had its moment. And because

of Clubhouse, I've made so many amazing friends that I'm still friends with today and like speaking

at events from Clubhouse or going on a podcast from that. So you never know how you're going to meet that one person that opens up one door that leads to another door. And Clubhouse was definitely one of those places. Definitely. So speaking that, I want to give your formal bio a little bit. And for those folks that aren't familiar with your work, have you been living under a rock and you've not known of Jen and her greatness? Do you mind if I do that?
