Are you a Unicorn? Have you been called a unicorn? Unicorn is a popular term used when there is an “only” or a “few” and it often means – according to Wikipedia – “a very rare find”.

Median Latino household wealth is projected to hit zero twenty years later, or by 2073." The Road To Zero Wealth.---Join Gary Cunningham, CEO of Prosperity Now, as he tackles the income and asset gap and highlights ways to build Black wealth for a more inclusive economy.

*Today is our 7th birthday as a podcast (wooo hooo). This is the 3rd part of a 3-part Reboot mini series. All three episodes are live right now (episodes 228-230).*The mantra and approach I'll share in today's episode, became the underlying driver that later helped me get:

Promoted twice in 6-months at my job
Increased my income and the number of income streams
Got me accepted as one of the first 100- people into LinkedIn’s Creator Accelarator program
And helped me create 50-live streams in 10-weeks

There's so much more that I was able to do, including address my mental health and strength, from this mindset shift. Tune in today to learn what I did, and how you can too.

If you’ve missed the podcast, and you’re happy we’re back I’ll ask you to

When you're navigating somewhere using Google Maps and you've got an accident on your route, Google will typically offer you to accept a different route... and that’s what I did in this valley season of my life. I accepted the alternate route. This is the 2nd part of a 3-part Reboot mini series. All three episodes are live right now (episodes 228-230).*In this episode, I share:

What happened to me in this 3-year valley season and why I accepted an alternate route to keep me moving toward my goals
How I landed a huge opportunity with LinkedIn as one of the very first 100 creators they accepted into their accelerator program
What lead to me landing not one but two job promotions inside a 6-month window

There’s a bunch more in this episode. Go back and check out part 1 if you missed it.--
