What an amazing and mind altering past few months its been. Yesterday marked our final class of YM2. It’s been an incredible few months diving deep into the multifamily space and capital raising. But when you sign up for this course, you don’t just walk away with knowledge — you walk away with a community. You gain friendships, mentors, and a completely new way of seeing life, love, business, and how you operate day to day. It’s bittersweet to see this chapter come to a close because I’ll definitely miss our Monday night sessions. But I’m beyond excited to take everything I’ve learned and put it into action as we move forward with our upcoming deals. A huge thank you to Marichel and Yonnick for your support, mentorship, and guidance along the way — it truly means a lot.

You’ve got the words. You’ve got the passion. You believe what you’re saying — I know you do. But when you listen back to your talk…👂 it just sounds… one tone. Monotoned. Like that middle-school history teacher with zero inflection, explaining the Civil War to a class that just wants lunch. And I say that with love — because I’ve been there. You Don’t Sound Boring Because You Don’t Care You sound boring because you’re stuck in your head. You’re focused on saying it right instead of saying it real in the moment. That flicker of quirkiness combined in the blender with your authenticity. You’ve got conviction… but no color. Fire… but no flame. And when that happens, even the best message falls flat. Tonality Makes People Feel Your Vibe Think about it: WorldStar went viral because it was high-energy, dramatic, unpredictable. WWE built an empire on emotion and entertainment. Eric Thomas? He yells, cries, whispers — all in one breath — and makes you feel like you can run through a wall. That’s what great communicators do — they don’t say things, they make you feel things. Try This: 🎯 Pick one line from your last talk — something you believe with all your spirit. Now say it three ways: - Calm and grounded. - Passionate and fiery. - Sincere and soft. Then play them back and ask yourself: 👉 “Which version made me feel something?” That’s your tone. That’s the one that connects. Now all you gotta do is transfer that energy to the person you're talking to. One to one or one to many.

Hands down, we have some of the best coaches I’ve ever had the privilege to work with. Being part of Contributor to Creator and Public Speaking for Capital Raisers has been nothing short of transformative—not just for my speaking skills, but for my mindset, my confidence, and my life. Yesterday’s session really made me pause and think about what I’m putting out into the world. Sometimes it’s uncomfortable to face the mirror and realize that growth often requires confronting denial, ego, or fear. But I’ve learned that those moments are where the real breakthroughs happen. Lately, I’ve been reflecting on what authenticity truly means. It’s more than being “real.” It’s allowing yourself to be seen—fully, but wisely. It’s the balance between vulnerability and intention—knowing you can show parts of your story without being defined or misunderstood by them. Because at the end of the day, authenticity isn’t about how people see you—it’s about how they feel when they’re around you. It’s the impact your truth leaves behind. And every single day, this journey with our coaches teaches me something new—lessons I would’ve never gained staying in my comfort zone or behind the walls of my 9-to-5. Growth like this doesn’t just build better speakers; it builds better leaders, thinkers, and human beings.

Ever since I've joined YM2, its been such a game changer. From the mindset shifts, learning lessons, and amazing community. I've had the honor to speak with @Rhonetta Cooper and @Sarahy Farias so far. Such fabulous women in our group and gave so much insights. Grateful for our convos 🫶🏾. I look forward to meeting more of our community!
