Chapters
To have so many like-minded women here in one place, I feel so incredibly grateful. Words can't even explain. And I'm so excited for us all to get rich.
Hey guys, welcome back to my channel. I am so excited for this vlog, I cannot even tell you. This is going to be the best Vlog. Yeah, so for background, I'm in London. I'm staying in the Mandarin Oriental, which is an absolute dream. I've never stayed in—I don't think I've ever stayed in a hotel in London before. I thought it was a special occasion, so what better place than the Mandarin? It's so cool here. Anyway, we are here in London, staying in the Mandarin Oriental. Today is Friday. Tomorrow I am hosting my first ever Female Sales Accelerator Ladies Lunch, and oh my goodness, I cannot wait. I believe there's 50 of the ladies coming, so it's all the UK ladies. I think there's a few girls flying as well from like Europe, which is insane. I can't believe it. And yeah, I'm gonna meet My girls for the first time in person, meet my team as well for the first time in person. So majority of my team are UK-based, and I can't believe I haven't met them either. So in person, obviously. So yeah, we are going to go to a lovely restaurant and everything's set up and we're gonna have a big lunch together. We're gonna be doing prizes and catch-ups and yeah, just honestly, it's just gonna be incredible and I Cannot wait. So I thought I would take you along with me. Enjoy the video. Super, super excited for this, as I've said a gazillion times. And yeah, I'll take you along with me later and show you what we get up to. So we are going to go and get a coffee now. I have just done a 3-hour work block yapping away. I feel exhausted. I need to, like, what is it? Not deplete. I feel depleted. I need to energize myself, get a coffee. And then get back to it. This is where we're staying. It's very, very London, which I absolutely love. I love, like, cozy spring, autumn, not when it's super, super busy and raining and horrible like the UK typically is. I think it's very rare to get, like, good weather, but when you have it, It's an honour.
So yeah, going to get a coffee, do a bit of shopping, get some gifts, and then back to it.
Good morning! Today is the day. I am dressed, hair done, makeup done, ready to go. I think I'm gonna leave in around 15-ish minutes. I can see all the girls messaging the group chat, they're on their way. Some of them are flying, which is absolutely Incredible. Like, I absolutely cannot wait. And yeah, I think it's going to be a really, really good day. This was such a spontaneous decision for us to do. I'm staying in the UK for a month, so I think I've got like a week and a half left. And it was just something that was a bit of an on-the-whim. I was like, is everyone free on this date? A bunch of Uh, of the girls were, not everyone of course, but like a large group of, uh, the girls were. So I thought, why not? Let's do it. So it's just going to be, like I said probably earlier, a nice casual sit-down lunch, get to meet everyone in person, catch up. And I think it's so incredible that we're able to do this, like to have a community of like-minded women all in one place is something that I've never had and always dreamed of. And something that I'm so proud about within the Female Sales Accelerator is the compliments we get. Like, when a new lady joins the programme, they always, always say how warm and welcome they feel, how kind everyone is, how everyone takes each other under their wing. And I think for women-only environments, That's not always the case, and we're so lucky to have that. So I feel so passionate about what we're doing here within the programme, the lives we're changing, the impact we're having, and I can't wait to continue that. And today I think is going to be so inspiring and such a huge, huge moment for me, for the girls, for the programme, for what we stand for, that yeah, I can't wait to take you along and see how the day goes. So, I guess I'll leave it up to our videographer from here to show you everything we get up to, and I'll see you on the other side. Bye!

£26K in a single month. Insane. Tell us what you did before sales and what got you into it.
I was a law student and what got me into it is literally just my partner because he wanted to do it as well. So I thought, okay, it was very like male dominated. So I thought, I'll give it a go as well and see if women can do it. And I found you.
I love that. And how do you feel the Female Sales Accelerator has supported you on this journey?
I think you were a massive part in it because you're very like supportive and personable.

To meet so many incredible women who have traveled up here, um, yeah, and see them in person. I mean, we see each other every single week on Zoom, right? But to actually meet them in person is so, so special, um, and is truly the reason that I do this. And I always said when I founded the Female Sales Accelerator, if I can just help one woman change their life as I was able to do, game changer. But to be able to sit here in a room of like 50 women, um, and for all of them to be following their dreams and at different stages, some of them making $25K a month at like 21, 22, it's mind-blowing. And I'll never ever take this for granted. Yeah, it's insane. Hello, hello.
