The Kingdom Grind: Authentic Leadership in Business and Faith

The foundation of every successful business isn't just strategy or capital—it's leadership that sets the tone, creates vision, and empowers others to excel. In this enlightening conversation, we unpack the true essence of leadership from a Christian business owner's perspective.

Leadership isn't about position but about influence. As we explore the pivotal role of authentic leadership, we share a powerful revelation: your team's ceiling will never rise higher than your own leadership capacity. This means continually investing in your growth while simultaneously pouring into those you lead. We share stories from a recent industry conference that demonstrated how crucial it is to stand firm in your values, even when you're the only ones doing so.

The fear of hiring often keeps business owners trapped in low-value tasks when they should be focusing on activities that significantly move the needle forward. We discuss practical strategies for overcoming this fear, including the importance of transparent communication that helps your team understand the context behind your decisions. When team members grasp the "why" behind your vision, they transform from direction-followers to passionate advocates.

One particularly striking moment in our conversation revolves around cultural alignment in hiring. We share how simply presenting your mission, vision, and core values upfront can save countless hours and headaches by identifying team members who truly fit your company culture. Small indicators like punctuality for interviews often reveal character traits that will significantly impact performance.

For entrepreneurs at any stage, we offer tangible advice: make your goals measurable, put them somewhere visible, speak life into your business daily, and find accountability partners who will hold you to your commitments. These practices create the foundation for achievement and growth, both for you and your team.

Welcome back to the Grind, everybody. Man. Another amazing, awesome week. We got some things coming down the pipeline, some things in the works. Thekingdomgrindcom is going to be available soon and we also have a community that we're going to have available soon Just feeding into business owners weekly trainings, live demonstrations a lot of cool things coming up and super excited about.

Speaker 1: 0:24

So just kind of wanted to start the show off with that. Um, also in the, wherever you listen to podcasts, there's usually a button at the top that says send a text. You can click that and it'll go directly to coach martin and I. Um, so if you guys want to call or text into the show, go ahead and feel free to do that. Those are just a couple things I want to touch on before we get started today. So I have coach martin here with me again.

Speaker 1: 0:49

How's it going? Yeah, good. How's it going, dylan? Good you having a good week so far? Yeah, it's been good. Yeah, it's awesome. There was a couple things that I wanted to touch on this week um, chris and I had gone to a conference and, um, it was more for like a hair, hair salon, hair industry, and one of the things that came up was leadership and how important leadership is in your business, how much it impacts your team, and I took away quite a few things on leadership and how we should show up for our teams, and I just wanted to kind of dive into that and see where your head is at as far as leadership goes and then kind of go down that rabbit hole and kind of have a back and forth on that.

Speaker 2: 1:35

Yeah. So it's a good. It's a good topic for sure. I think it's a topic where you know I got to definitely, you know, think about it. You don't want to be harsh when you. You know I got to definitely, you know, think about it.

Speaker 2: 1:52

You don't want to be harsh when you, you know you say things, but I think today leadership is is, you know, I really want to use the word overrated, but not not meaning that we don't need leaders A hundred percent we do.

Speaker 2: 1:58

What I mean is, I think a lot of times, you know, we just throw certain people in charge that really have no business being in charge and we think they're a leader and then, ultimately, the people that are underneath them, they're going to suffer because the ceiling is low. It's kind of like how high is your ceiling in your house If you go to a business? The ceiling is higher. It's the same way. So having leadership that is over you, that they're very good at what they do, they've been able to move the needle wherever they've been at and to truly learn from them, to me is vital. I think it's a must when it comes to scaling. Like I said, I think the downfall with our society today is everyone thinks they're a leader, and if your knowledge is right here, how are you going to get people to hear?

Speaker 1: 2:46

Yeah, yeah, no, absolutely, and I think that's one thing I took away from this weekend is, no matter where you're at within your business, you could be doing $10 million a year.

Speaker 1: 2:56

You can still be improving, and I think that's where it's vital to have mentors One of the people I listened to they're doing $250 million a year. They still have a group of mentors that they have around them of people that have done 500, 700 million, and I just think it's going back to kind of what we talked about last week a little bit, as far as like continually learning and not letting pride get in the way of like, oh, I'm doing 10 million a year, I'm good. No, it's like we should always be in a state of learning and like going to this conference getting fed by some you know great speakers that I learned a couple things, you know, and it's like I think as leaders, we should always be, like the word says, leading the way. We should always be in the front and not the back, right, and so I just took away like how can I be a better leader within the salon? How can I be a better leader in my home? How can I be a better leader just in?

Speaker 2: 3:57

my life in general and the people that I surround myself with. So it's a good take. I like it. I do Um. You know, and I think the thing about it is, whenever people are to the level where they're making seven, eight figures a year or nine figures in this particular person's instance usually by the time you get there, you've been extremely developed where it's now no longer a question You're going to have leaders, right?

Speaker 2: 4:23

I remember one of the gentlemen was one of my mentors that the last year I was with him he made $50 million but he had multiple coaches that he hired. You know what I mean. Now, the outside, the layman, would say, well, why do you need a coach? You just made 50 mil. But he's like, well, you don't get it. You know what I mean. So, yeah, I agree with you and what happens is, honestly, the more money you make and the more you develop and the more you make really to be honest with you the more coaches and mentors and leaders you're going to have over the top of you, because you understand that it's like the lifeblood of you know of what it is that you need to be able to get to, wherever it is you're trying to get to.

Speaker 1: 5:02

Yeah, absolutely, wherever it is you're trying to get to. Yeah, absolutely, and I think that kind of touches on. Another point that I wanted to talk on today was hiring and bringing a team on that you can lead. I know a couple of people in my life that own businesses but they don't want to hire. Like they're scared to hire and they don't know the process and they're comfortable where they're. At which, you know, some people may just be comfortable doing it by themselves, but I think, using the excuse of like I don't know what it looks like, I'm scared to hire somebody and then fail, and it goes back to that failure mindset. I think, though, at times, as leaders, we need to be able to step up if we do want to grow and step out in faith, and, you know, hire those team members that can propel us to the next level. Like, we should not be doing a $10 an hour, $15, 20 an hour task that can be outsourced. We should be focusing on the $50 an hour, $100 an hour, $150 an hour task. Right, and I think that's even where I'm looking at.

Speaker 1: 6:03

Where in my life can I outsource some of these tasks, whether it's a VA or whatever the case may be. How can I get more time back? So, like, for an example, at the salon, right, if it doesn't get answered at the salon, the phone call then goes to my cell phone. I can pick up and manage the call. I could hire a VA for that. Like there's no reason that I should be getting the phone calls if it's not picked up at the salon, right? Like, yeah, the stylist at the salon will call them back, but you always want to try and get that initial phone call because you know you could always lose that client if you don't answer the phone. Yeah, so instead of just I could take the phone call. But that's an area where I could outsource that for $10 an hour, $15 an hour or per call and save all that time and energy. You know what I mean.

Speaker 2: 6:54

Yeah, I do. So there's a couple of pieces in there I want to touch on. So if the audience doesn't know what a VA is, that's virtual assistant, um. But ultimately I think, um one, you're right, as a business owner, you want to get to the point where you're only dealing with MMS, money-making activities. So if it's not a money-making activity, you need to cut it, have somebody else do it. But I think what happens with a, with a thought process of a lot of times we just, you know, we forget to make the main thing the main thing.

Speaker 1: 7:23

Yeah.

Speaker 2: 7:23

So, and what I mean by that is like, what's the main thing? Like why are you building the business that you're building, right? What's the purpose? So you fill that in and then you realize that you know, when you're building a business, man, it's a lot of work, it's, you know, you're not, you got to roll up the sleeves, you're grinding. It's kind of like the whole thought process the nine to five pays the bills, but the five to nine builds the legacy and it's many, many of those days, if not years, and years, and years. But the thing about it is you want to get to the point eventually where you utilize that money to buy back your time. So if you're not doing that, then you're missing the boat. And I'll give you an example, and I won't mention the name.

Speaker 2: 8:05

I know I have a friend of mine who his father is very, very wealthy. He's built a very good life, built a very big business, made a lot of money. And you know we were having this conversation and he was talking about how his father really wasn't around a whole lot. And I get it now at the beginning right, you're building in, all not, but you got to the point where he should have hired all that out. You can get. So like caught up in the hey, I'm working all the time. You want to get to the point where you start buying back your time. Time's a limit of resource. Money is not.

Speaker 2: 8:37

So, once you're building your business, start scaling. Yes, you got to you. Hire employees. Start with VAs, hire employees, hire people that you can. And it's actually twofold One you get to buy back your time and now spend the time with your family, people that you love, check. But also I look at like man. I get to pour into my employees. I get to empower them. I get to teach them things that they ain't going to learn outside of here. You know what I mean. So now I have the opportunity to kind of like be that person that's going to be able to pour into them, get them thinking bigger, help them so that'll serve them one day. So I kind of look at it like both. Yes, we're doing ourselves a service to be able to have time to spend with our family and the people we love, but we're also every single employee that we can hire. We could change their life.

Speaker 1: 9:28

Yeah, no, absolutely Like this conference that we went to. We had taken our manager with us and she was able to get poured into, and I think, as Christian business owners, we should be pouring into the people that work for us just like we would anybody else. It was funny. Well, not funny, but at this conference you know, the the hair industry is very much demonic. There's just like a lot of demonic activity, like things that are just not Christian oriented. Right, and one of the speakers had gone up on stage and was doing some like teaching people some weird stuff.

Speaker 1: 10:04

Well, chris and I were just standing there and we have our, you know, manager with us.

Speaker 1: 10:11

She sees us just standing there, not participating, and then she chooses not to participate and it's like now we're feeding that into her of like, hey, this isn't okay, we're going to stand up for the truth, whether we, whether we're the only ones not doing it or not. Right, and Crystal and I were just sitting there praying and praying the blood of Jesus and, you know, once it was all said and done, the speaker says you know, did anyone like whatever? They asked the question and this little old man raised his hand and she called him up on stage and I told Crystal Jesus needs to be brought to this industry. This guy gets up on stage and he's like I just want to give all the glory to Jesus, I just want to like I pray to Jesus, I get my comfort from Jesus, and he's like, talking about Jesus, jesus and the speaker that was doing this stuff just started bawling on stage and it's like everyone else, even if they're Christian, they're all in there doing this stuff that she was saying.

Speaker 2: 11:12

But it's like.

Speaker 1: 11:13

It takes the light and the darkness to reveal those things. And not only did you know we sit there and pray and then this man step up and present Jesus in this type of environment, but our employees saw the power of Jesus through this whole thing as well. You know, and I think that's as Christian business owners we have to step into that and pour that into our employees.

Speaker 2: 11:38

Yeah, I think it kind of even taps into you, go back to, you know, going back to, to leadership, right, you, you, your job as a leader is to set the tone. You know your job as a leader is to lead from the front. I've heard people say like, leave from the middle, leave from the back. No, you're not a leader, you're not leading anybody. You lead from the front. You set the tone and and studies were done. There was a study done once, dylan, where they took like I don't know, it was like 50 people. They put them in a room, they gave them all a question and it was the wrong. It was, uh, like, whatever the question was, hey, you know, what do you see? And then, um, it was set up where, like, the first 20 people would say something totally opposite of what the answer was, but it was the same answer over and over and over again yeah so then, when it got to the people that weren't actors in this study, they all agreed with the lie.

Speaker 2: 12:27

You know what I mean. So when you like, look at human behavior, that's what happens so a lot of times, like if we're not leading from the front, if we're not like, hey, no, this isn't acceptable. What happens is everybody starts doing it, and not only everyone starts it. Now the people that are underneath you end up doing it as well. So you've got to give credit for that man to be bold, to be able to go up there, and he could have got ridiculed, and he just did it. And not only did he do it, but God always honors obedience, and I think that's where a big problem is. Most people aren't willing to be obedient and they're not willing to move their feet. He raised his hand. He could have got ridiculed. He went up on stage and he was obedient and you saw, obviously, what the Lord did with it. Amazing story.

Speaker 1: 13:12

Yeah, no, it kind of put things in the Bible in perspective for me, because I think of, like Paul and all these like people that were in the Bible going to these places where they're heavy into demonic activity, and and how Chris and I felt in that moment of like at first, of just like standing there while everyone else is doing everything, like it could feel awkward, like it could feel like man we're, we're going against a hundred percent of these people, almost, you know, and it just puts things into perspective as far as the Bible goes. Like man, what were they going through when they were going into these cities and towns? Right, I was just like man. I couldn't even imagine.

Speaker 2: 13:52

Oh yeah, I mean, honestly, everything's spiritual anyways. So when you really think about it, you know what I mean. You see something crazy going on and it's not that there's craziness going on, there's spiritual, there's spirits and demonic stuff that's making that stuff go on, right. So that's the crazy thing about it. But you know they had to go through that. But here's the interesting thing that craziness has been going on since the beginning of time, right, but it subsided when those people were bold, paul, they took the gospel, they, they did, and they drove out all that craziness. Now a lot of them obviously lost their life and they did the thing that they had to do. But, man, you talk about a great example of a leader yeah that's a leader right there.

Speaker 2: 14:36

He didn't care what happened to him. He didn't care if he was thrown in jail. Most of us would be crying and complaining, and I can't believe this has happened to me. He didn't care. He was like no, because he understood that it was all spiritual, Like he had to, he had. He had a work to do to drive this nonsense out, and and and, obviously not to get too deep into it. But we're in a country that you could see what's going on, Same thing right, when half the stuff that's going on is demonic.

Speaker 1: 15:02

Yeah, I wanted to get your take on this piece a little bit. It was interesting. There was two speakers the other ones were just talking about business stuff but two speakers one was about meditation, the other one was doing the other stuff and what I found very, very interesting was a lot of their principles. You could pull from the word yeah. But what I had noticed and you know this has been talked about widely is like what satan does is he pulls god's word and then moves it towards yourself. He doesn't even move it towards him. He makes you start thinking about yourself rather than others, and that's what I had seen with even like the meditation is like, oh, your inner self, and it's all about self, self, self and taking Jesus out of what they're actually doing. So I wanted to get your take because I thought it was just fascinating and interesting, like how some of these principles are in the Bible that they're doing, but they're changing it from Jesus to themselves.

Speaker 2: 16:04

Yeah, and that's been going on for a long time as well. So what happens is you'll have and we always mess stuff up, but I think again, it's spiritual right you, it's, there's a demonic piece going on to it. So when you, when you look at it, like you think of a think of a video game I don't, I've never been in the games, but let's just say you're in the games. Whatever that game is, Somebody created that game.

Speaker 2: 16:26

They put all the rules in place, how you got to operate. When you lose, you do these things. You lose to get coins. You know what I mean? It's all like Mario golf, yeah, process. So God created everything and all the rules within it, and if you follow the rules there's reward. If you don't follow the rules, you get in trouble. It's very simple, right? So the thing about it is that the rules that he puts in place, the principles I like to call them the success principles they work for everybody, whether you believe in the Lord or not, because his word is true and the principle will work. But what's happened is sometimes will people will find a thing that works, a principle that works, and then what they'll do is they'll serve the principle instead of the person that created the principle yeah that makes sense, and I think that's where we get lost.

Speaker 2: 17:21

That's why you see these religions that are based around like you know, know, meditation or you know whatever you know speaking, and all of this stuff, when in reality it's a principle that the Lord put in. But it's never about the principle, it's about the person that created it or the God that created it, and that's why that's where we differ from them, because we know that God created these principles. We worship the Lord, we do the principles because he tells us to do it. They more don't understand that and they worship the principle. So that's where the thing is. But yeah, you want to, and there's power, there's power in you know, there's power and there's truth in all of these things and when you look at it from a surface, like you know the things they do, they work. The problem is what we talked about. It's not. We're not worshiping the principle.

Speaker 1: 18:14

Yeah, yeah, and I think that's what I found fascinating, especially with like the meditation, like meditating within yourself and finding peace within yourself. I'm like I'm pretty sure the word says meditate on the word.

Speaker 2: 18:26

Yeah.

Speaker 1: 18:26

Like the Bible, talks about meditating on the word. But society, or you know people that believe in the principle, meditating, they're finding it within themselves, which is obviously from Satan, you know.

Speaker 2: 18:39

Yeah.

Speaker 1: 18:40

Yeah, yeah, there was a quite a few things that I took away from this weekend and I think leadership, employees and like showing that leadership to employees, because it was cool, because our manager she was, she just didn't understand like the business side of things and just kind of like, I think, as a leader, sometimes you kind of know what's going on behind the scenes but your team doesn't.

Speaker 1: 19:05

And I think that's where transparency comes in.

Speaker 1: 19:07

So it's like crystal and I are like, oh, we need to do this, we need to do that, and like nobody has a context that we have, and they're like why do we need to do all this?

Speaker 1: 19:15

So I thought it was cool too. Like with her going to this event, she started seeing some of the context of like what crystal and I were you, why we have been presenting all this stuff, or like the directions that we've been wanting to take within the business, and so, man, I think after this conference, like I get it, and it fed her in a way to where now she wants to step up and do more, because now she has the context. And I think one thing I took away from that is just transparency, even transparency with your team of like hey, this is what's going on, which is why we need to do this, and now you can get everybody to rally behind the one objective, and I think it's so important to have your team behind you rather than you trying to like do this, do that, do this, do that, like no, let's all get on the same page and work on this together so we can all go up.

Speaker 2: 20:09

Yeah so I like it, I do, I. I mean I, I'm one where, you know, I'm a believer there's a, you know, a divide on this, but I'm a believer that you hire, uh, for culture, yeah, and then you train up and you know what I mean. And it's just interesting and I've, you know, been in a position where I've hired a lot of people and I've had to fire a lot of people. You know what I mean and you know you always feel bad. You know when you have to fire somebody, but you know when somebody wasn't willing to give 100% and do the work, then you don't feel as bad. You know what I mean. But you know, for me that would kind of be a non-negotiable. I'd have to have somebody that was driven, that was whatever the case, and if they weren't, they would be working somewhere else. I would have to let them go. You know what I mean. But it's kind of like you have four tires, but if one of them is flat, how far is your car going?

Speaker 1: 21:00

Yeah.

Speaker 2: 21:00

So you've got to make sure that, yeah, as you start growing, you want to make sure that, yeah, as a you know, as you start, as you start growing, you want to make sure that everyone, hey, here's our objective. And that's why I think that you know your vision and your goals and stuff should be up on the wall, where everybody sees it. So, you know, it's kind of like what the Lord said right, make the vision, write it and make it plain, put on the wall that he that reads it may read it and run. Yeah, I think that you want to be like, hey, this is a goal, we're all on board, we all good, okay, cool, like, now, let's do it. You know, I mean, you don't have somebody that's going to be that flat tire, that's going to be complaining at the water cooler like, oh, this sucks, it's whatever. Yeah, you, you got it.

Speaker 1: 21:40

You got to cut those yeah, and I think the biggest piece is like the hiring process first, like let's be proactive rather than reactive. You know, like if we could cut them out before even bringing them on, that's the best scenario. And I think putting that mission, vision and those core values in place, presenting those to people beforehand, um, having certain questions that you look you know to ask during the interview process that align with your guys's goals, for example, like we had somebody reach out to a salon wanting a position and we are looking for somebody part-time right now, but I had sent our mission statement, our vision statement, our core values, all this, and then she responded with okay, so do we still get paid? I don't even remember what she said, because as soon as she responded like okay, and then do we still get paid? Blah, blah, blah, I'm like you're not the right culture fit.

Speaker 1: 22:33

Like, just from that one response alone, you're not even going to come in for an interview. So I think having those systems in place beforehand could save you so much time and headache on the backend. My little secret if you're late to the first interview, you're not getting hired. Yeah, and crystal laughs Cause in all of our employees know this now. So, like if somebody does come in for an interview and they're late in their heads, they're like well, that sucks.

Speaker 1: 23:05

Cause that's like one of my non-negotiables is being late.

Speaker 2: 23:10

Well, yeah, I mean, you know you got to do better than that.

Speaker 1: 23:15

Which, at this conference as well, this lady had mentioned a study that they did. It was NASA and they could predict who would be a leader within the company simply by, and what they would do is the person interviewing would come in, trip and fall and, depending on the person that they were going to interview's response to them tripping and falling and the way they laughed or went about the situation you could tell if they were going to be a leader or not 100% of the time, which I thought was interesting.

Speaker 1: 23:45

Just in your initial response to something like that can show if you're going to have a leader or not.

Speaker 2: 23:51

Yeah Well, just think of the process of testing that, how long that took, how many people they had to go through to be able to get the right data to be able to determine that. It's pretty impressive.

Speaker 1: 24:03

Yeah, for sure. Do you have any tips, tricks for business owners this week that you would like to share or that came up this week?

Speaker 2: 24:12

Yeah, good question. So you know, I, I would say if, if I'm talking to a bit depending on the business owner, right, but if we're talking to a new business owner, I would always say kind of the same thing that I tell everybody. You know, stop stop focusing on the money. You know, I get it. I do get it. We all have to live. We got to pay the bills, we got to put food on the table but ultimately, at the end of the day, the Lord's not going to let us go hungry. So stop focusing about on the money.

Speaker 2: 24:42

Remember why you started right, write it down. Figure out what those goals are. Make sure the goals are measurable, not just like, oh, I want to do better. No, they got to be measurable. I do this all the time, especially with my children. I do that now. They're good at it now, but at first they'd give me like, well, I want to lose weight, well, what does that mean? No, give me something I can measure, give me an amount.

Speaker 2: 25:06

So find out what your goal is, make it measurable, put it up on the wall and I would and I would say honestly, speak life into it. I would tell you like every single day I mean, obviously, you got to do the work. You got to do the work, you got to do the things that you need to do. That's a given. We're not talking about that. But I'm saying you need to speak life into your business. Every day, before you start, I could tell you that I've my big goal right in the bathroom and in the very every day, at five o'clock in the morning. That's when it's going to start. So, man, I tell you, do it, speak into it, speak life into your business, and I'm going to give it. I'm going to go back. Let's look at the template. Right, we know that the Lord created everything in six days. He rested on the seven, but what was the vehicle that he used for creation? It was communication. It was his voice. So, follow the template and communicate over and over and over and over and over again until it happens. So that's what I would tell you Keep it simple. Obviously, we've got to do the work, but find out what the goal is, make it measurable, put it up on the wall. I would even tell you to put it out there with people. Get an accountability partner. Don't be a secret agent. Put it out there Now.

Speaker 2: 26:24

Sometimes people don't do that because, well, what if I fail? Who cares? Who cares? Think about if I was going to hey, I'm going to, okay, I need to lose some weight, I need to drop 10 pounds. I do Imagine if I was like, oh, I'll just drop 10 pounds.

Speaker 2: 26:37

Yeah, imagine if I was like, if I put it out there to everyone, I'd be like, hey, I'm going to drop 10 pounds by this day. Yeah, yeah, Then now they're going to hold us accountable. You will go farther in life with somebody holding you accountable than doing it on your own. So I guess that would be my kind of long-winded thing on what to tell you, especially if you're a new entrepreneur, if you're a business owner and you've been in this business for a while and you're not doing that, then you need to definitely do it. But get your goals down, write them up, put them on the wall. Find somebody to hold you accountable down, write them up, put them on the wall. Find somebody to hold you accountable. Put your vision up on a mirror and speak life every single day. Speak it out loud until it happens.

Speaker 1: 27:20

Yeah, that accountability like hit. I think so many times like we want to not put it out there because we don't want the accountability, because we love the comfort, we live in comfort and I think we have to step out of that comfort in order to grow you're never going to grow outside of that comfort.

Speaker 1: 27:43

So you know if it means accountability, that's what a weight trainer does at the gym. They hold hold you accountable. Yeah, that's what a teacher does. They hold you accountable to whatever they're teaching you, right? A mentor? They're going to hold you accountable, like you need accountability. We have accountability throughout the Bible. We're accountable to what we do here on this earth, like we're always accountable for our choices.

Speaker 2: 28:09

Yeah.

Speaker 1: 28:10

So put it out there and do it. Yeah, so I talked a little bit about the community at the beginning. I just for this last little bit here before we close this out. I wanted to touch on this a little bit that we're working on in there. I'm going to be doing some marketing stuff, showing people how to do use different tools and live demonstrations and trainings and things like that. Um, I wanted to touch on kind of what they can expect from you in there and how it can help them and go from there.

Speaker 2: 28:43

Yeah. So if you're thinking about building something, or if you're an entrepreneur, if you're a business owner, whatever level one, two or three, you're going to want to be part of it because, one, you're going to be in an environment with other people helping you, pouring in you, teaching you things that you just don't know. You just don't know. You only know what you know, so that's going to be key. Uh, then you're going to get weekly coaching, so you're going to be able to hop on, be poured into, learn, ask questions. You're going to be able to hop on, be poured into, learn, ask questions. You're going to be in this environment where you can do that.

Speaker 2: 29:15

If you can't make it, we will record them and put them in there, but you're going to definitely want to try to make the live ones, and that will just be filled with a lot of worksheets one sheets, you know, other things where you're going to be able to go in there and learn about specific items. Here's the deal. Like I always tell people, you know you can spend a long time trying to figure it on your own. It can take you forever. So the question is, why would you do that?

Speaker 2: 29:42

You know, what I mean. So learn from other people, people that have done it, people that have done it at scale that could truly go in there and help you. So this environment is going to be an amazing environment that anyone serious if you're not serious, it's not going to be for you. We don't want you just to sign up and you know, pay a monthly and you don't do anything. That's not what we're looking for. We want it to be able to help people pull out that God-given dream that has been deposited in your heart and be, you know, partners with you and help you get there.

Speaker 1: 30:11

Yeah, and let us be that accountability partner for you. If you're worried that somebody's going to judge you, come into the group. We'll be your accountability partner. But we'll also be that encourager on the sideline for you as well.

Speaker 2: 30:26

Yeah, I like it, and let me give you your first little exercise. So if you are one where you're worried about kind of what other people think, I'm going to give you the first learning lesson, step one, to becoming a leader. You cannot worry about what other people think, only worry about what God thinks. Yes, you know what I mean. If you worry about what other people think, you ain't leading anybody. Yep, right. So kind of work that muscle, tune that out. Worry about what God says and what God thinks.

Speaker 1: 30:53

muscle tune that out, worry about what god says and what god thinks, and then ultimately you're gonna you're gonna be in good shape. Yeah, yeah, absolutely well, we look forward to seeing you guys on the website. There will be a button on there to get notified once that goes live. So go ahead and go on there, press the button if you're interested, fill out the form and then you guys will be notified as soon as that it goes live. Do you have anything else before we close this out?

Speaker 2: 31:14
