Comparison Kills. Period.

Apr 20, 2021

Do you ever feel triggered when scrolling through instagram or by seeing someone else flaunt or act a certain way? Fact is, you probably have. 

Fun Fact about me… 

I’ve always wanted a Range Rover, don’t know why it’s just something that I’ve always wanted. When 30 year old Janelle would see someone roll up in a Range Rover I used to immediately hate on them because it was something I wanted. 

At the time, I was jealous, envious, and triggered. Fast forward to 40 year old Janelle, I’m cheering for that person in the Range Rover. Why? I realized that I was triggered because that person had something I didn’t. In reality, I don’t know the “behind the scenes” of how she got that Range Rover. I don’t know what she had to go through, what she sacrificed, or if it was a gift, or she was born into money; and I’ll never. The funny thing is that that Range Rover and whatever other version of success I was envious of, I had to learn that it was available for me too!

Mar 02, 2021

Would you believe me if I told you I had the SECRET INGREDIENT that’s been missing from your business and you could be an overnight success tomorrow? 

Let me tell you that if anyone ever tells you that they’re lying straight to your face and you should RUN! 

Fact is running a successful business is hard af! It’s full of discomfort, pain, sleepless nights, unbelievable sacrifice, it’s going to cost you, and it’s not meant for everybody.

It’s a highlight reel of “successful” people making their own hours, having lavish vacations, posting their brand new million dollar cars, or their expensive real estate and all they tell you is to start and success with follow.
