The Power of Belief: My Journey from Hospital Shifts to Entrepreneurial Success

The Power of Belief: My Journey from Hospital Shifts to Entrepreneurial Success

People often ask me, with a hint of disbelief in their voice, "Did you ever think all of this was possible?!"

Did you ever think you'd run a successful network marketing business with over a million in monthly sales?

Did you ever think you'd inspire nurses around the globe to find ways to make extra money without quitting their day jobs?

Did you ever think you'd transition from a high school dropout to a retired nurse turned successful entrepreneur?

I know what the "expected" answer might be, especially for someone with my background.

"Never! I couldn't have imagined this in my wildest dreams!"

But that wouldn't be true.

I knew. I knew what I was capable of.

Even during those long shifts at the mental health hospital, I never doubted my abilities or capacity.

And this feeling—of determination, resilience, and unyielding certainty—is the feeling I want for every nurse, every healthcare worker, and every person looking to rewrite their story.

I know that sounds ambitious, and that's because it is. I want to live in a world where we can all pursue our dreams without being judged or doubted, regardless of our background or current circumstances.

If you're maximizing every moment of your day to build your dreams, know that I'm here, cheering you on, right by your side.

If you're still figuring out how to start, know that I'm still here, still cheering you on, just as much.

Remember, I started by simply blogging about my hospital shifts. Small steps can lead to incredible journeys.

Believe in yourself,

Angela Brooks
