This was the realization that hit me in my early days of running my law practice. I saw that staying safe in my industry's âlaneâ â only seeking out mentors who were lawyers; attending law conferences that teach the same archaic ish; sipping cheap wine at law firm networking events â would cramp my growth and limit my earning potential as an entrepreneur. I knew I had to branch out. To go outside. To spend my time connecting with potential clients where they go. To meet innovative partners from other sectors that could help me grow my business.
â To take action on all that I learned when I left behind the boring circles. {NAME}, your business cannot thrive in an echo chamber. You need diversity of thoughts, experiences, opinions, and skills. As a business owner (and honestly, a human), if you're spending your time in an environment where your beliefs and opinions are never challenged and alternative ideas are never considered... you're doing yourself, your team, your customers, and your community a disservice. Our greatest growth opportunities come when we open up and learn from others. Especially collaborative thinkers, industry experts from different backgrounds, and even disruptors challenging the status quo. That's why Hello Seven has committed to inviting our community to meet us, each year in January, at ROI The Millionaire Summit (in 2025 weâll celebrate our third event!). Thereâs power in connection and cross-industry learning. It's the stuff that sparks world-changing innovation and builds sustainable million-dollar businesses. ROI is far from a boring circle that lacks diversity. ROI is different because ROI is, well, you. At 2023âs ROI, we invited you to find your âiâ â imagination, invention, integrity, innovation, independence, ideas and inspiration⦠In 2024, we invited you to grow your âi.â And in 2025, weâre inviting you to take action on your âi.â Your first big action? â[Answer our call for speakers]( and add your name to the ranks of equitable millionaires, top podcasters, New York Times bestselling authors, and activists who have spoken onstage at ROI. Youâll join the company of past ROI speakers like Tabitha Brown, Ivy McGregor, Pinky Cole, Jackie Aina, Amy Purdy, Rachel Cargle, Sonya Renee Taylor, Arlan Hamilton, Farnoosh Torabi, Nathan Barry, and Teri Ijeoma. It has long been my goal that Hello Seven be a company, and a community, filled with stories beyond my own. The hero of ROI isnât me or my team or our keynote speakers â while these are elements of what makes ROI a success â ROI would be nothing without the âiâ weâve chosen for this yearâs event: the individuals who make up our community. We want you and your peers onstage, FIRST NAME. We want to hear stories of taking ideas from nothing and taking decisive action to make them reality. Whatâs your juicy workshop that will guide ROIâs attendees to take practical action steps towards their dreams, in real time? You are invited to throw your hat in the ring to be a speaker. â[Apply now.](â I spent many years speaking at live events that continued to seriously lack people of color, women, queer people and people living with a disability on stage AND in the audience, and thatâs why we opened ROI: The Millionaire Summit to the entire Hello Seven community in 2023. And thatâs why, for 2025, weâre extending this invitation to you. So hereâs what I want you to do next: - â[Fill out this application]( and pitch me on your workshop.

ââSo many amazing things came from it. From new business opportunities & collaborations to mentorship from the absolute best in the business.
