Rise Up Network

I sat down with special guest Jeff Blanton, founder of the Blanton Group.

For those of you who know Jeff personally, you know how great of an impact he has made for the members of this community. The Blanton Group is paving the way for more meaningful business by working with business professionals and organizations to create more of an impact while also growing as a whole.

I had the pleasure to sit down with Larry Kesslin, chief connector at SPIRE.  SPIRE is a community for purpose-driven leaders. Their mission is to help members increase their impact and their income through the power of deeper more meaningful connections. They create experiences that help people get to know your peers as people first.  Larry is a special leader in our community and I couldn't be more excited to share this very special episode!

I sat down with @roydmason to discuss all of the miracles that God has in store for each and every one of us.

Time and time again I’m connected with the most amazing servant leaders of God and giving them a space to share their story is so important to me! 🙏🏽

This episode was absolutely heart opening and I hope you enjoy!

When you become a parent, you start to focus on the best possible ways to raise future leaders. 

That is exactly what Karen does with her business Y0uthfit2lead.

Y0uthfit2lead hosts fun fitness workshops to inspire teens to be their best, most strong selves! Karen teaches that there is no such thing as disabilities only capabilities which is why she’s an amazing leader for our youth! 👏🏽

I sat down with CRE expert Richard Gonor to discuss all things relationships, happiness, and success 🙌

I believe they all go hand in hand and involve a level of selfless and service to others.

I’ve found that my own happiness comes from a place of service. That is the ultimate joy and it’s always great to meet others who have that same outlook.

I sat down with @marcothechampion who has a very inspiring story about he turned his life around after a close to fatal accident. Doctors told him that he would never walk or ride a skateboard again but he used the power of mindset to heal and eventually go on to start his digital marketing agency.   Mindset is more powerful than we know but anyone is capable of creating the life that they desire with it.

I am always absolutely blown away by the amazing work that our guests do for the community. Rise Up Network was created to spread positivity and that’s exactly what Karlton Dennis does. Karlton and his mother Karla are top notch tax strategists and give back to others in so many different ways.  Financial education is freedom and teaching others how to create that for themselves is so powerful. 👏🏽  Connect with Karlton on Instagram: @karltondennis

This week I had the pleasure to sit down with Real Estate Expert Dave Panozzo. Dave is a Veteran, business owner, father, husband, grandfather and inspiration to many people. Listen to his story on his rise to success here!

I sat down with guest Dr. Nate Landis to discuss the importance of faith for young people today. You see, many children are not exposed to Church, Christ, and these important teachings which is what the Urban Youth Collaborative has set out to do. Helping our youth to rise up to be leaders is so important for their connection with God. By helping them find purpose in his teachings, they grow closer to him.

This was a heart warming episode, enjoy!
