Transcript

I'm so excited to have you on my podcast. So welcome to the Samantha Parker Show. Thank you for having me. Okay, so today I am sitting down with Yvonne and I think you're just a baller. Yeah, you do. I do. Yeah. I wasn't expecting that, but thank you. No, I think you're super amazing. Obviously.

Okay. I'm gonna be a little biased because, we do your podcasts, we do your social media Now. We haven't been working with you very long though, so I feel like I have a lot of questions. Sure. Let's. Dive in. Yeah. Okay. But how do you introduce yourself? What's your title that you go by? First of all, I'm an open book.

Nothing is Off Limits. So I just go by Yvonne, really. I, my, I have a first name, but Yvonne's my middle name, so I just go by Yvonne. Oh, Yvonne's your middle name. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. But what would, what title would you give yourself, because you got a few. Serial entrepreneur. Serial entrepreneur.

Yeah. Maybe. Yeah. I'm just Yvonne. I'm like, just me. You're like, it's just Yvonne. Okay. It's like Prince one name. Yeah. Yeah. Really? I've considered dropping the last name. Yeah. Oh, really? Yeah. Just being Yvonne. Oh, that's fun. Yeah. I tell everyone, they're like, it's the Samantha Parker, oh, it's the Samantha Parker.

Don't forget that the. Oh yeah, I like that. And people are like what's your business name? And I'm like, it's the Samantha Parker Love that it's registered. Yeah. Yeah. I am, I think from an outsider looking in, if they saw all the things I do, they'd be like, oh hell, she's totally a DD because I do a lot.

But really, I'm me. I'm Yvonne. I, I'm a lover of life and all humanity, and I'm your bestie through it all. I. I believe I'm probably one of the most down to earth people. I think I can come across intimidating. People will look at me and think I'm something else, but I think once they get to know me, I'm just, Yvonne.

I love it. Yeah. Okay but what do you do though for, work? Let's dive into that because I know you've got coaching, you've got the Hers summit coming up, her success summit, and then you have. F like you travel all over 'cause you're like a really amazing injector. So tell me about all those things.

Okay. And I love that we bring this up. So I am Yvonne and what I do, right? So I don't identify me as a title or a credential, it's what I do. So I've been trained as a family nurse practitioner. That's my schooling. So a family nurse practitioner, however, I was rejected from Intermountain Healthcare, so that's where we live here in southern Utah is our main healthcare provider is Intermountain Healthcare.

I actually started with them in the nineties running their snack bar. Okay. On the graveyard shift, flipping burgers. Okay. I worked for Intermountain. Yeah. Worked my way up into, I worked at Emergency Medicine as a unit secretary in the trauma center, and then I worked in I really worked just about every position in the hospital about housekeeping.

Okay. So I, I've, I've done all of that. And then I ended up going into nursing school because I wanted to be a nurse and ended up being a family nurse practitioner because of my nurse practitioner when I was. 14. And that's all in my book from Food Stamps to Fortunes. But Oh, I should have had your book.

I have it at home, but I should have it right here. I know. And prop it up. I sent it to April. I'm like, oh my gosh. I shouldn't have brought my book for you, but, oh, you know what? That's my, I I'll do that next time. We're podcasting with you. I'll make sure we have your book. Yeah. So I am a family nurse practitioner.

I am a serial entrepreneur. My first business I. Started in 2015, a med spa outside of Park City, Utah. And I really didn't know what I was doing, but I did it anyway. And it was medical weight loss and Botox and fillers. And then I started dabbling in skin. I hired an aesthetician and then I started a training program.

And so in 2018 I started medical aesthetic art institute, training medical professionals how to do Botox and filler. Okay. And then I saw a need in the industry after traveling across the country, realizing these medical spas did not have an emergency kit. So I created and trademarked aesthetic er. It's an emergency kit and training for dermo filler complications.

And then in 2021, we were voted Institute of the Year. And ironically, I had written on a three by five card that I wanted to be amongst the best training programs in the country. And we were voted number one three years later. And then in 2020. I created, I started a clinic here and not as a med spa.

I never wanted a med spa in St. George. But what I did was I created a booth rental Botox bar concept. So after a nurse or a nurse practitioner would take a training, we would put them in a booth and I would act as medical director and oversee them. We do have everything to run a med spell. We have all the equipment, but it's really a landing place for these new injectors to get started.

And then I have a satellite clinic in an training center in Las Vegas. I did sell my first business two years ago, and the aesthetic ER is in contract to be sold now. Oh, that's exciting. Yeah. So that's the medical side of things that I do. I do speak nationally at medical conferences. I own my own medical conference.

That's MAAI summit. We hold that every August in Park City. And then I realized after training so many medical professionals, specifically women, the limiting beliefs that they have, they hold themselves back. They play small. They don't dare go all in on themselves. And so it's like I, I teach them the skill that literally has generated me millions of dollars.

And I'm like, what is, what's holding you back? And I realize it's. Their narrative, their self dialogue. And so then I started business coaching, which truly is a lot of mindset coaching and I ended up taking that business to six figures within the first year. And it, it's been three years as a business coach doing that as well.

And I just love coaching and speaking and so I've ev vowed to myself this year. That I will not step on anyone else's stage and give a medical lecture. I'm done doing that. I feel a calling to impact women on a deeper, more spiritual level. I and so I have her Success Summit. It's a women's conference I started at last year here in St.

George, and then I, I really blew it up into more of a weekend retreat where we have. Some extremely powerful women coming flying in to speak. One generated a hundred million dollars in her company this year. Another one created a. A pink pill for women, and she literally sold her business for a billion dollars and they were driving the business into the ground, so she bought it back and she's a powerhouse.

So I just want to show women what is possible. They have so much power that they are not even aware of, and I do believe that when women make more money, we can change the world. So that's my mission. My mission is to empower and inspire and impact 4 million women. Worldwide to create a life by design, a life that they dream of living.

So yes, I wear many hats and as I, I'm still in medicine today, but I don't know how long I'll be in medicine because again, I have a calling I believe that I'm to fulfill and that's really helping women achieve their goals and dreams. Okay. So I have all the questions now too. Yeah. I'm always like, I'm banking them in my head as you're talking.

I'm like, oh, I gotta ask her about this, this, and this. But it's okay. I'll just have you back on the podcast. Yeah, of course. Yeah. Okay. So first thing I love that you said that you're just, Yvonne you're like, oh, I don't go by my title, my title, all these different things. I love that because sometimes I've felt like it's a lot.

So my husband retired from the military last year, so what, that was 21 years he did in the military. And a lot of times it just felt like people were just grouping me into an Army wife, and they would be like, oh, how's your husband doing? 'cause he was deployed a lot. I gave birth to my son by myself, he was deployed even as, I think most recently, it was three years ago.

And people were always like, how's Jake? How's Jake? How's. And so often I was like, hello. Mm-hmm. And it is hard to go by our titles. 'cause a lot of times people, they're like, oh, what is it that you do? Which I think that defines a lot of us though 'cause it's how we spend a huge part of our day.

But I'm like, oh, there's always so much more to me Yeah. Than just what I do. And if you're an entrepreneur, you you want to break from it. 'cause your whole life can be immersed in it. Mm-hmm. Yeah, I was actually just telling April that when you are so passionate about what you do and you love what you do and you love serving the people you're serving, you can get lost in it.

And I, I see so many women defined by their position and then so many women held back that I don't have this title, I don't have these credentials, and I'm like, I think the most. Empowering thing any woman can do is learn to deeply love and respect herself. I'm not attached to the money. I'm not attached to the titles.

I'm not attached to any of that. My whole purpose is loving humanity, loving other people, leaving my pixie dust or my essence in this world. And that's why I wrote my book was I want to leave this world a better place. Because God believed in me enough to give me life that I could be down here amongst all of you.

And I am so damn grateful for this. Every day I wake up in gratitude that I get to be me. There is no one else like me. There is no other Yvonne, me. And I don't take that lightly. And I live every day to the fullest. I truly am. In love with my life. And I'm not saying my life is peaches and cream. It's not butterflies.

I'm, it's, there's definitely challenges. I've been through so much As you read my book, you'll see that. But that's why I am the woman I am today. But I deeply, deeply love, honor, and respect myself as an extension to our creator. Okay. I love that. 'cause when you were saying you had a calling and I was like, Ooh, I wanted to get into that.

So do you feel like God literally was like, Yvonne, like you've been through so much, you've done all this. Now you need to go out and share what happened? 100%. My voice is to be heard be. And I, and looking back, as Steve Jobs always says, you can always connect the dots. Looking back, it's so scary for, for us human beings, our mind does not like anticipation or uncertainty.

That's why people get fearful and that's why they stop and they hold themselves back because of the unknown. However, I've learned to embrace that because I am an extension of source. Mm-hmm. If God wants me around, I'm gonna be around and now more than ever, I'm 48 years old now, more than ever, I have committed and vowed to spend the rest of my life in service of humanity and specifically women.

I love deeply, love the women I serve, and they are an extension of me and an extension of. God, our creator. And so I'm not perfect by any means. My human mind always kicks in into habitual thinking and into habitual patterns, but I have to ground myself. We were just up in Zion and I literally was hugging trees because I want to be one with nature and be grounded in my humanity.

But every day, every single day, I am so grateful to be alive. I'm so grateful to be me, and I am on a mission. I am on my life's mission, my life's purpose. I will, I do not wanna leave this life with anything left in me because I've learned that our dreams don't have an expiration date, but our life does, and I will spend every, every day of my life living it to the fullest.

Oh, I love that. I've heard you say that before too, about the dreams. And it's so powerful. So thank you for sharing that. Okay. The other thing that I was like taking mental note of, I'm really surprised I can remember all these things was you said you started at IHG. So I used to work at IHG too. Oh.

But so I got my CNA my senior year of high school. And so then I started working as a CNA, like 1819. And then I was going to nursing school. I did not finish nursing school. I actually ended up pregnant with my daughter and that's how I have a 20-year-old. Okay. At 40. And I just ultimately I couldn't do all of it.

So I was working nights at Cottonwood Hospital. Do you remember Cottonwood Hospital? Yeah. It's not there anymore. Yeah. So I worked nights and then I was pregnant and then I had her, and I was in an extremely abusive relationship to a total absolute by the book Narcissist Sociopath. And it was like I couldn't carry all of that.

Sure. And so I ended up not finishing college till I was 30. But yeah, I remember doing all of that like you're talking about. Yeah. But I love that that's your beautiful journey. Mm-hmm. And the thing is, is, as I mentioned on my podcast is why do we judge other people's journey? I've not lived in your shoes.

I've not walked your path. It's not my business to judge your journey, but I love you and honor you and respect you for living your truth and your journey. And obviously nursing wasn't your path, right? Yeah. You're right where you're meant to be. Yeah. Doing what you do. I, I loved the time they worked as a CNA and then after I had her like just to support us.

Like I did hospice work and that was incredible. Like it shaped my life and changed my life. Yeah. But it was one of those things where you're like, you, I just feel like you can't work in that space forever. Yeah, exactly. It is taxing. Yeah. And that's how I felt working emergency medicine.

Mm-hmm. It's toxic, but if you look on an energetic level, most people that are sick, I know this is in sound woowoo, this is like my, my spiritual side coming out, but, and metaphysics or, but a lot of the times, energetically the illness. Is a manifestation of a low vibration or low energy Oh, absolutely.

Or something holding within you. So when you're in that environment all the time, and I talk about this in my book, 'cause a lot of the, the nurses I coach are leaving the hospital, they're so burnt out. Mm-hmm. They. They're literally walking around dying because life is sucked out of them. And so I give them hope again.

I help reignite that light and that that purpose in them that you are made for more. You have a purpose. But what happens is we get, life happens to us, right? And then we get in a job to pay the bills and make ends meet that we lose ourselves in that process. And I think it happens more. Later in life, we either have a midlife awakening or we have a midlife crisis and we're faced with a, a new opportunity to change our lives.

And so that's what happened for me was my father passed away in 2016 of pancreatic cancer and I didn't know of all the spiritual gifts I have, but I dreamt his death a year and a half before he died. Yeah. And I, I realize I'm clairvoyant. Things come to me, my dreams, which we all have these spiritual gifts.

Oh, absolutely. I figured out how to fix my Jeep the other day, and my husband goes how did you know to do that? And I said, oh, God told me. Yeah, our intuition. He's like looking at me like, what? As Cindy, Cindy was with me, my Jeep has been pissing me off so bad. It had this thing wrong with it where like all of a sudden you'd be driving it and then just all the emergency lights.

Everything on the dash would just keep flashing and beeping and flashing and beeping. But then I would go and take it in and they're like, we have no idea what you're talking about. Yeah. I, I'd be curious as to if your spirit guides or something else is trying to get your attention. Yeah. What it was, was the.

Wire on the battery had come loose, but my husband's no, I've looked at it. I've checked it. These guys were like, no, everything's fine. And I saw it. I was like, you just need to tape it with some electrical tape and tape it tighter. And it worked. Yeah. But I had never even looked at it or even knew about it.

My husband last night goes, how did you know that? That's what I should do. And I was like, God told me. We, we really have genius within us. We do. Yeah, we do. But we are so distracted by life, the external world. We're so distracted that we don't hear it. Yes. And that's something I've been really focused on lately, is taking that intentional time to listen.

Yeah. And so it, it doesn't even have to be a lot of time, sometimes it's like just shutting the radio off in the car and just listening or, I can listen and listen at the same time. I think we're, we're ladies, but think about this for a minute. If you're driving through a storm and the rain's coming, whatever, and you can't see it's foggy, what do we do?

We turn off the music, we literally get focused. We cannot have any distractions because we need to hear, we need to get focused. We need all of our senses. So that's exactly how life is. And I will tell you the same goes for success. If you want massive success, you've gotta get, still, you've gotta get quiet because your intuition is already whispering.

The whisper turns into a knock and then it turns into. What we've heard is like a full slap the face like cancer. Yeah, yeah. Whatever. Yeah. It, it's all about bringing us back to our truth, our ourselves. I love that. Okay, so yesterday we were in the same room, but we you had April lunches over there.

Hey. Yeah. I always like to give everyone else to the room a shout out. I'm like, Hey guys. You had her on your podcast, but I heard you say you get up at 4:00 AM Yeah. And I used to be really big on the morning routine where I was like, if you do this morning routine, you'll be successful. And then I was like, okay, like you have to like, chill out a little bit, so then when I heard you say 4:00 AM it piqued my interest. So I want to hear like your 4:00 AM. What does this morning look like? Okay it's not for everyone, right? But when I tapped into my passion, I have a lust for life. I wanna live it. And now, don't get me wrong, there's plenty of days where like I was in Coeur d'Alene.

Over the weekend. It was rainy, it was gray. I'm really affected by the weather. Oh, it affects my mood. Are you so glad the sun's out today? 'cause it was really messing with me. Yeah. It messes with me too. I was like, what is this rain? I don't like it. Yeah. I had honestly. Bought a car or booked a car rental so I could go explore and look for some land.

'cause I wanna buy land in the country. And because it was gray and cold, I stayed in my room, I stayed in my bed. I'm like, that is not me. But 4:00 AM and it's just quiet. The world is asleep. Oh, I love it. I can have time alone. You go outside and see the stars. I journal I, I'll go stand in the grass sometimes just to ground and see the stars.

I even had her in my hot tub to. Last night, I'm like, let's just sit under the stars and it's quiet and I like to be in elements or nature as much as I can, but in the morning I wake up, it's pretty much automatic. This morning it's 3 56 without alarm. That is 3 56. Yeah. See I get up at five and I feel like that's ambitious, but what time do you go to bed?

9, 9 30. Oh, okay. Yeah, me too. I'm usually asleep by 10. Yeah. Yeah. So with teenagers, I have teenagers now, and so they, when they're with me, they keep me up a little bit later, but I try to be in Bed Journal, reflect, read, listen to something. Yeah. I may not be asleep, but like I'm in bed, yeah. But 4:00 AM just seems to work.

If I'm on, we call it second shift, so my twins, they're still allowing me to drive them to their football practice in the morning. Although they have driver's license, I take every opportunity I can, and so they don't have to be there till 5 45. So sometimes I'll just. Spend extra time doing things in the morning.

So I get up, I roll right outta bed onto my knees, and I thank God that I get today. Then I stretch, and then I will journal. I'll meditate. I'll just spend time in the mirror. So I do a tapping technique of self-love. Mm-hmm. I hired a hypnotherapist. He was on like Larry King Live, and I had a couple sessions with him.

He's from San Diego area and he taught me this tapping technique. Of loving myself and he is helped a lot of people become extremely successful doing this. And so I do that in the morning, in the mirror and I just connect with my younger self and do my own inner work. And and then I get ready to go to the gym.

And I believe when you move your body, you move your mood. And it shifts your state. And so this is, I always say I do me for the first three, the first three hours of every day. Oh, I like that. I do me for the first three. Yeah. Can you write that down? And then the rest of the world can have me's Got it.

Have what's left of me. Yeah. But I can step out into the world as my best self after I've taken care of myself. I agree. So the world gets my overflow, whatever's left, they get of me. But that's, that's like my time. It's so important to me. Oh, I love that. Yeah. I ran a 5K this morning. Good for you.

Which one was that? It was me, myself, and I on the treadmill. Good, good. And this time of year I start to get a little down on running because like I was on the treadmill at the gym and they do at the gym, the summer on sunset, it is like up high and you can usually see Snow Canyon, but in the morning this time of year, you have to stare into the dark aby at yourself.

Yeah. That's hard. You know what, that was great though. I listened to my Jesus music and I love it. Good. That's that's powerful. I, it was good. It was good. I'm running the snow canyon in 10 K, but I haven't been running. Okay. But I got, I got really sick last week and it like mentally like it really, I don't know.

I got no weird mental space. I was like, it's just a head cold, so I am pulling myself out of that. Yeah. But everything is energy and everything affects you. And one thing I don't think most. People understand. And April, we and I talked about this, 'cause April is a nutrition autoimmune expert.

And so what I realized, and I realized that on a, ironically this year, I love Easter candy. I love candy Candy. Candy. I love candy. But when I eat candy, it affects my mental health, the dyes, the sugar. And what I realized is there's those, the mic, it affects the microbiome. So your behavior, and we see this in children with A-D-D-A-D-H-D, the red dyes, it affects you on a cellular level and so being ill, it affects you that way too.

Yeah. But I want you to know I am such a diehard cheerleader, your hype girl. I will go run my ass off in the cold with you. Just to help you reach your goals. Yeah. So call me. Okay. I'll meet you. I'm up at 4:00 AM anyway. I know I was having like a weird Yeah, I've been having a weird time. And even yesterday I was struggling to just get outta bed and I'm like, you have to change that tomorrow.

Yeah. So I was like, get up. It. Just go run. It was great. So get up and think Yvonne would do this. Y Yvonne's there. I'm gonna spin tomorrow at five 15 if you wanna come. What? Spin where? The new, the hype. Okay. What's tomorrow at five? I can five 15? Yeah. Do you wanna come? Sure. It's my friend Jess's class and it's slow and sweaty.

Okay. Count us in. So it's oh, heavy, sweaty. That's what they call it. I keep it. Every time we have a podcast, I'm inviting people to her class. I was like, we just talked about this. Low and sweaty, heavy, sweaty. It's heavy and sweaty. And your first ride's free. So if you guys just, I actually, I know they won't be full tomorrow, so you guys could just show up.

Perfect. I would show up though, like 5 0 5 to get your shoes. Yeah, we'll be there. Yeah, I'll just double check. The twins don't have to be anywhere and it's like 45 minutes. It's great. 'cause. I'm like home and showered and ready for the day by seven. I love it. Oh yeah, we're game. Okay, let's go. Love it.

I'm excited. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. Jess will be excited too. So fun. Yeah. Okay. So that's what you do? Yeah. And then how do you structure your days? I feel like you're one of those people who've got success dialed in, but I'm sure you're always adjusting the dial. You have to adjust the dial. So my personal assistant just quit last week, so normally my personal assistant does whatever I need.

She'll meal prep my food for me. She packs my luggage for me. She runs the errands, she goes grocery shopping. She'll do whatever I need. And I'm, I've had one for so long that I lost without one. Yeah. Because I will tell you, I'm not gonna lie, like menopause is effed with my, my brain. Mm-hmm. Like I am like, what am I doing?

Where am I at? What, I've, yeah. So I get my hormones checked a ton. I'm super on top of that, like every six months. It's it's a passion project of mine to feel good. Yeah. But. That's one thing is I start, I don't remember everything I used to remember. Yeah. I'll even tell Cindy, I'm telling you this 'cause I know I'm not gonna remember.

Yeah. Honestly, I have to have a personal assistant just because of my memory, which makes me really sad because I'm like, I started looking at it though. I'm like, I've had such a fulfilling, it's just all the amazing things I get to do all the time. Yeah. They're just feeling all the memories.

Yeah. It's like a cloud. The cloud is like so full and abundant. There you go. I, I'm gonna start looking at it that way. What I, what I've done that has really, really helped me because I do wear so many hats and I have a d, d businesses, like so many of them that I have to delegate and designate. So Monday is admin day, we work on the business.

And we take meetings and we take calls. So my marketing meeting, those are all on Monday, Tuesday is podcasting, Wednesday's, coaching Thursday's, patients Friday through Sunday's travel. So I try not to, so yesterday, April was like, oh my gosh, this is a crazy day. 'cause I. When you have to energetically switch one hat to the next.

Mm-hmm. It is time consuming. So I wanna be in the right state of mind when I'm seeing a patient, which is a much lower energy than buzz buzz, buzz like go, go, go. When I'm coaching. So it is so funny, I did a late night coaching group last night and I got done and April's oh my gosh, you're like a whole different woman.

And I'm like, that's what coaching does. I am high vibe. High energy, that is my jam. I, when my energy's high, my, client's energy's high. Yeah. Coaching is my jam. That is my thing. When I speak life into people, I am in alignment and I manifest like this. And it's not that I don't love seeing patients in the clinic anymore, and I do still love to teach.

I love to speak. But when you're switching energetic state. It's, they're definitely different. And when I do so many different tasks during the day, that is just too much energetically. Oh, absolutely. So speaking to anyone, listening to, to me here is if you are. Juggling multiple things. It's mind, brain energy.

It's your energy is everything. So that's why you see like the billionaires wearing the same color shirt every day. They don't wanna have to make more decisions because their mind power, they're giving it away from making other decisions. That's why I wear black all the time. Okay. I knew you were gonna wear black.

Yeah. So did you see Yeah, I wore black. Yeah. I was like, I'm gonna match this. And this has been something. I've, I've been consciously making this decision more recently. Oh, I love it. I'm here for it. Yeah. And it's, so I am switching to wardrobe. I do still wear purple because that is my brand colors.

Mm-hmm. But we're going through some change and, and you're a part of this change where I'm, we're coming along. Yeah. We have a lot of. Of transitioning, a lot of pivoting with the businesses moving forward. I'm selling some of them off, and I am stepping more into alignment into my purpose. I, I think my audience is starting to see, like she's changing.

Her look is changing a lot is changing, but I, I want to save my energy for what truly matters. But yes, organizing my days. It really, really helps. But I do need a personal assistant, so if anyone's looking for a job, hit me up. I know. Gosh, that's, I'm like, I want someone to meal prep and pack my clothes.

I'm not there yet though. Yeah. I've been doing this for a while and for me to be on my best game, I need some, I need help. Yeah, no, I totally get that. Even obviously, like I'm a mom. You're a mom, and even at home like it, I'm not able to be. That like homemaker wife, yeah. So that's one thing that I've gotten pretty good at too, is hey, like I'm not able to do those things and I'm really not a great host and I, I feel bad. I'm like, you guys, I love company, but I am not the, I am, I'm like the worst host because I'm used to having someone help me mm-hmm.

With my meals that I'm not the person that's gonna cook a. For someone I and I, and I don't mean it in a rude way, just Oh yeah, I get it. My life is so many moving parts and things. I'm like, welcome to my home. Please make yourself at home and here's the kitchen. Cook for yourselves. Eat whatever you want.

Help yourself. Let's order 'cause that's, I'm just always, no, I get that. Doing and going and stuff yeah. Oh, I love that. Okay. So if you had to like so we. I know, I know that soundbite you're talking about, you can't connect the dot, looking, you can't connect the dots looking forward.

You can only connect the dots looking backwards. Yes. But if you do look back, have you heard the Gary V, what he says? He says all that looking back is fucking with your neck. Oh, funny. Yeah. That's funny. Yeah. I don't live back there. I know, but they're also great. I enjoy looking back, you know where I'm at in my life right now.

Before I used to be like, oh my gosh, who was that person? But now I'm like, Hey, that was that was wild. Look what I did. But if you could look back and connect some dots, what do you feel like was a really big moment for you that completely shifted your life? Do you have like one that just stands out?

I have had so many. Okay. And I wanna share something with you that might blow your mind, okay? Okay. Now I want you to, everyone listening to just. Open your mind for just a minute as I explained this to you. So you ask me do I have one thing that stands out. I was raised by a, a mother who was raised in the LDS religion, but did not take us to church, except for when she needed a babysitter, she would drop us off.

So I have a lot of religion issues because of the way I was raised. Put that aside. My father was Catholic and, but anyway, my parents did the best they could. But there was there was so much turmoil in my childhood, but the presence, there was always a presence there. Now I, I try to use the word God more because most people do.

I am, I still struggle with that. I do tend to say the universe life. Whatever you believe, but for me it's the universe. But there's been several times where I was at really, really hard place in my life. And one in particular, I was probably 13 and I was in the bathroom getting ready and I looked in the mirror and I literally could see my soul through my eyes.

And I looked and I was like. There's something else in there. Okay, so I know this sounds crazy, but that was my first, in the moment, in the present, in the now, knowing that there's something greater, now there's, I've felt a presence around me, whether that's my spirit, guides God, whatever. I did not know until this spiritual awakening or experience that I've been going through the last couple years.

And what I've come to realize for me and my truth is that it, it is actually me now visiting her then I've had that happen. I know exactly what you're talking about. Is that not wild? Yes. Am I blowing everyone's mind right now? Mm-hmm. So I go back to her. Regularly, and I talk about this in my book, it's my last chapter, my favorite chapter in the book Do it for her is I visit my younger self all the time and I love her.

I show up today as the woman. She needed me then, right? And, and now my 80-year-old self comes to me and she loves me fiercely. And she's we made it like, look what we have done. In this lifetime. And when I get present and I get quiet and I get still with that, that is the most beautiful moment in my life.

And so now that I understand that, now I can see that I was my own presence then. Mm-hmm. Yeah. Do you wanna hear my vivid experience of that? Because I don't think you're crazy at all. Okay. So I was probably like 22 or 23. I was living on my own in an apartment and I just had a futon. And I have, I've had my daughter, so my daughter's with me.

We're just living in this little two bedroom apartment, but I remember I fell asleep on the futon in the little tiny living room, and I woke up and there was someone, there was a woman standing there. There was, I know it happened. I know it was real, but at that point, like I had worked hospice, I'd done all these things and I'm like, I'd seen a lot of stuff.

So I was like, okay, that was weird. But the next day my grandparents picked me up. I think we were going to brunch or something. And I was like, there was a woman in my living room last night, it was a ghost. And I was asking my grandma, I said, do you know who she is? Because usually my grandma knows these things, mm-hmm. And she's I don't. And I thought about that over and over and over. And then one day, like it just, I was probably driving or walking or something and flipped into my head and I was like, that was you visiting you in that moment. Got the chills full. Very chills. Especially in that moment too. I was laying on the couch.

I was in the height of like my active alcohol addiction. And so I was looking back at myself and being like, you'll get out of this. Yeah. And you'll, you'll free yourself of this and this shitty apartment that you're living in. Yeah. And this crazy psychopath that won't leave you alone and you'll get out of this.

Yeah. And I've seen it like, yeah. That was me looking at me. Yeah. I've had so many things and I think one day I'll share, I, I'm actually putting together my second book. I've had some real deep spiritual experiences, not religious, but spiritual experiences that there's absolutely no denying that I spoke into existence and they've happened.

Mm-hmm. And it happens all the time. So I'm very intentional now with my words and one of the books I have all my coaching clients read when we first start is the four agreements. Because we need to be impeccable with our words because we manifest. It's either black magic or white magic. And literally when I'm intentional and I speak it, it happens.

And when my vibration is high, I was telling April how I manifested my home and it is so powerful and I, I am working on practicing that more now that my fam my manifestation gap is quicker. And there's been a couple people that have come into my life and completely altered the trajectory of my life knowing that they've made, we've had this spiritual contract for them to come in and do and disrupt it in a beautiful way that they did.

But when my vibration is high. Because the love I have for these people I manifest as soon as it comes out of my mouth. And so I'm learning how to put myself in that state more consistently and more regularly. But what I'm clinging to now at this state in my life or time in my life, is that I know with every fiber of my being my mission right now, and that is to impact and inspire 4 million women.

I don't need to know how. But I know that is my, my life's purpose. Every time you say 4 million, I'm like, oh, that's really easy. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. And you could pick a bigger number. Yeah, yeah. And right now, that's the where my mind uhhuh, the capacity my mind has on that and what I heard today, which really, really helped me because people are like how do you measure that?

And one thing I heard today was you measure it by money. So if you've done 4 million in your business. That's 4 million lives that you can impact because money is energy and it's symbolic. And so I'm like, okay. And you're exactly right. Like I've done millions of my business so I can raise that number.

People might be like, but you only have 15,000 followers on your Instagram. Yeah, but I've impacted generations. I've helped women become millionaires themselves. Mm-hmm. And. The woman that helped me, she doesn't even know it. She's in my book. I speak about her on the stages. So there is a book I read and the author is unknown, but he says, and I talk about this a lot, I actually talk about this in my keynote, and he says, imagine on the day you are born, you are born with a number above your head.

And what that number represents is the lives you are to impact. Whether that number is three. Or 3 million. That is your responsibility. And literally those lives are waiting for you. They're waiting for you April to step into your life's calling, and you are doing them a disservice by not fulfilling your life's calling.

And so people ask me, Yvonne, how did you come up with the number 4 million? And I said if there's 8 billion people in the world, half of those must be women. So that's 4 billion. That's a stretch for me. Like in my mind that's a stretch. That's what I'm saying. But if you think about that, 4 million isn't very many people.

It's not. Yeah. And so this, this has been a goal within just the last year. I've come up with the number 4 million. And so I'm like, that is achievable. It's a stretch. It's, I don't think it's, it's achievable. Maybe I need to expand my mind. Yeah, you're right. Thank you, you for that. I'm like, you get one video there.

You know what I mean? Yeah, yeah. And you're exactly right. And I'm so grateful for you because. You and I I had heard your name. So the universe does this, right? He brings it up. The universe brings it up a couple times until, so your name had come up and my a director of operations had actually brought up your name.

But you know when you hear a name and you don't attach to anything 'cause you don't know who it is. Yeah. Then you and I are at a women's conference in Scottsdale, Arizona, and again, she brings up Samantha was there and I'm like. Okay. And then we're at this point where we have the women's conference.

No, but you know what, I think before the women's conference though, I was sitting in an event here at Kiln and you were in the back and I didn't, you started, started talking. I didn't even, yeah, yeah. And I was just sitting like two seats in front of you. That is so crazy. Yeah. Now that I think about it, do you know what I'm talking?

Yeah, yeah. And you were saying that you were, there was a guy talking and he was saying, dah dah, dah. And you raised your hand and you're like, do you remember me? You changed my life. Yeah. Yeah. And I was just sitting in a couple seats in front of you. That is so crazy. So we were orbiting each other's.

Mm-hmm. And it, it was obviously meant to be that, to work together. Yeah. And it's such, I'm so grateful. Because I, for one, I love working with women, period, like women's work. I'm telling you ladies, if you're gonna start a business because you have a calling, you're going to do extremely well If you. Listen in, and you, and you go in heart and soul, right?

Your purpose, your passion. But I love working with women because we can just have this conversation and we can compliment each other and, and really support each other. So I'm always like, hire a woman first. And no, man hating or man shaming. Oh, no. Women are freaking incredible. They're just so incredible.

Yeah. And we have a lot of, we have a couple single moms on my team, and I feel like they just want it. Yeah. And it's if we can help each other, let's do that. Yeah. A hundred percent. I lost my train of thought with my menopause brain. I have no idea. But tell us about the Her Success Summit coming up.

'cause we'll air this in a week so people can still come get their tickets. Yeah. I had come up with the idea last year, and I did it here local, like real low key, really inexpensive, a one day event. And it was so transformative that like women were like, oh my gosh, this was just what I needed. I just went through a divorce.

I'm like, I'm on fire. I'm ready to change my life. And and again, knowing like my calling is getting louder and screaming at me, I'm like, okay, let's do this. Let's do this. Leadership, women in business leadership. And I'm like we have this brand new beautiful golf resort. I literally go there every week for brunch because I love being in the environment.

And I'm like, let's do it there. 'cause I had just went, I flew to Tucson to tour the Tucson area and I'm like, I wanna bring business home and it's not hard to get here. You can fly. Into Salt Lake. Salt Lake to St. George. We have a little airport here. Mm-hmm. You can get your place, you can find direct here a lot.

Yeah. And you can come in from Las Vegas, but it's so beautiful. Like April has been in awe since she arrived. And so I want it to be a place where you can be completely real, raw, vulnerable, and let's tap into these. Traumas that we have, these limiting beliefs that we have. This, I'm not enough, I'm scared, and there's women here that have done huge things, but they're no better than you.

They're no smarter than you. They're only a few steps ahead of you, and they want to reach back and pull you up. So I. All women there, whether you own a business or not, I, this is where you're gonna come and recharge and connect. We're healing the sisterhood, we're loving on each other. We're getting to know each other, and we are doing a golf.

We hired a golf pro to teach. I do not know how to golf. And I believe the more skills we have, the more well-rounded we are and the more relatable we are. So we have a golf. Experience planned. We have a stargazing experience dream really big. We have great lectures, great food spa package just hanging out, relaxing.

Even like Saturday night. I'm like, what I loved from the powerhouse women was dressing up in your pajamas and shopping and sipping. Let's get a bunch of women owned businesses there and support them as they're starting their small business and get them, and we'll shop from them. We'll get little mini tattoos or we'll get some jewelry or some makeup or whatever it is, but it's women.

Supporting women is truly what it is. And we're learning from women that are a few steps ahead of us and we're, we're pouring into ourselves and we're recharging and taking care of ourselves because when we do that, we can step into the world as our best selves. I love that. Okay, so let's link that in our show notes for sure.

And then tell us your in insert. Where can we find you online? Tell us all the handles. Yeah, so that event is November 13th through the 16th here in St. George at Black Desert Resort. And we'll be there. We're super excited. We're gonna be there getting content. I actually have one of our other team members coming too.
