I get it, {NAME}. When I was little, my dream was a life full of FREEDOM — financial freedom, location freedom, and most of all, creative freedom. When I started out, I was passionate about a multitude of seemingly unconnected things: writing, hip-hop, psychology, entrepreneurship, creativity, spirituality, fitness, and philanthropy. After several failed attempts at corporate jobs and trying to choose ONE thing to be, I had a thought. What if my unusual combination of interests and skills was a strength, not a liability? I gave up the security of my 9–5 and worked a multitude of jobs while building a business from the ground up. Today, my “resume” includes the New York Stock Exchange, Condé Nast publishing, choreographing hip-hop on MTV, being one of the world’s first Nike Elite Dance Athletes, author of two international best-selling books, and the founder of a digital education company named in the Inc. 500. I coined the term "multipassionate entrepreneur" because I didn’t (and never will) fit into a conventional box. You don’t have to, either. The key to thriving in today’s world — and living a life you love — is to bring your whole self to the table. That includes your unique set of gifts, your personality, and most importantly, your heart. I created B-School to help you bring your dream to life — no matter how weird or impossible it may seem. Read on for inspiring stories from B-School grads who did just that… Michelle Went from Homeless Shelter to Helping Women Overcome Abuse - ‟Before I started B-School, I was married to someone who suffered from addiction. I was broke and I had no friends because I was so embarrassed. So I called a homeless shelter and asked, ‘How many days can you take a mom and her three kids?’ - - That evening, I remember thinking that if I ever find the answers, I will spend the rest of my life helping other women. I did find the answers, but I didn't have the roadmap to share what I had learned. That's when I found B-School. - - B-School taught me how to use my voice, my pain, and my victories to help other women. From the first sale, we started putting money away and now we have a non-profit that gives legal help and housing and safety for women and children who are physically and verbally abused. There's no way I would be here without B-School. - - This always makes me cry — I have a 14-year-old daughter whose father is addicted to drugs and alcohol. She told me she would love to take over my business one day. The fact that I've created something she’s proud of… That's my biggest win, my daughter.” ~Michelle A. 👉 [Claim Your Dream & Change Your Life With B-School]( Melissa’s Living Her Dream As a Professional Screenwriter - ‟Before B-School, I was trapped in a rigid business, working 60+ hour weeks with little sleep and no self-care. I was burnt out and exhausted. Even worse, I had this long-buried dream of being a writer. I was writing other people's stories as a publicist, but I was dying to tell stories of my own. - - I cannot BELIEVE how much B-School and Marie's guidance transformed my life. - - I completely revamped my entire business into a sleek, profitable empire that doesn't require me to work long hours hunched over my computer. I moved my entire family to Los Angeles to finally pursue my dream and I now work as a freaking professional screenwriter! I have two produced movies, sold a TV show, and have three feature films in development. - - I NEVER would have gone after this dream, found the confidence, and had a business model to support me without B-School.” ~Melissa C. 👉 [{NAME}, Make YOUR Biggest Dream Come True In B-School]( Melinda is “Killing It” As a Plus-Size Model - “Modeling has been my fantasy for as long as I can remember. But, I fought it because logically it seemed impossible. That I — in my late twenties after serving in the Navy and establishing my consulting career — could ever start from zero in the fashion industry and get anywhere. - - Well just last week, I was featured in SELF magazine as one of ‘13 Plus Size Models Killing the Fashion Game Right Now.’ Yes, you read that right. - - Your B-School bonus ‘Start the Right Business’ is probably the single most important piece of content I ever encountered. Five years ago I was a Defense Consultant in D.C. Now, at 31, I've got a thriving career as a Plus Size Model, featured alongside women who have been modeling for more than a decade. - - More importantly, my soul is at peace because I'm now able to channel all of my personal experiences into this career that lets me also inspire and empower other women.” ~Melinda P. 👉 [Make Your “Impossible” Dream a Reality — Join Us in B-School]( Lucas Left a Toxic Workplace — and Now Makes $40k a Month - “Before B-School I was burning out from the stress of grooming 8–12 dogs/day in a hectic salon. I knew what I was doing wasn't sustainable for me. The wear and tear on my body, lack of breaks, and neglect of mental well-being (as a person who is very sensitive to sensory overload due to PTSD, ASD & ADHD) was altogether too much. - - I was crushed to feel like I had to choose between my beloved profession and my well-being. Plus, I had this gnawing feeling that I would never be satisfied if I didn't at least try to start my own business. - - I took B-School as part of my commitment to do everything I could to save my career and invest in my dream business's success. B-School did just that… - - I launched our mobile pet grooming company. Within 3 months, I went full-time and made my first 2 hires! - - We've been steadily growing ever since despite nearly NO paid marketing. We have raving, reliable clients. We're up to $40,000/month in sales and the profit margin is almost more than my salary! 😅 - - My favorite part is seeing groomers reigniting their passion for their work, dropping the time stress, and connecting with animals again. Being able to help our community and the animals is so rewarding.” ~Lucas K. SO inspiring, right? ✨✨ There’s nothing more beautiful than a dream to help others. AND — let’s be real — there’s nothing wrong with making big money while you’re at it. B-School gives you the tools to do both. The world really does need that special thing you’ve been dreaming about since you were little. No matter how different, “out there,” or impossible it may seem. If you’re thinking about B-School, get in now before the doors close this week!
