Business Your Mind

In this week’s episode, I got to talk with Marcell Gordon, owner and founder of Glowhouse Gaming and Studios. After a successful D-1 college basketball career, and a successful side hustle consigning t-shirts while still in college and playing ball, Marcell continued his entrepreneurial path after graduating. Over the years since then, he has started, and run many very successful businesses. However, what would become Glowhouse Gaming and Glowhouse Studios is what would ultimately become his “Magnum Opus.” So settle in, as Marcell takes us on his business journey, and join me to Business Your Mind.

William shares a moment in his journey where he reached a breaking point, shortly after opening his first "brick and mortar" storefront. It was in this moment that he relied on faith, perseverance and humility to keep going with his and his wife's business dreams.

In this week's episode of Business Your Mind, I got to sit down and talk with William Salaam, who is the co-owner of Lady Mocha @Miller Beach Boutique in Gary, IN and Bronzeville Boutique in Chicago, IL. William's story is incredible! His journey started when he was growing up in poverty on the south side of Chicago and graduating 397 out of 400 from high school. Not having the grades to go to college, he joined the Navy and got an education no classroom could teach. His fear of going back to poverty based on the fact that he was the only one of his siblings to NOT go to college, drove him to have a "hustler's mentality" and do whatever it took to make money LEGALLY, and stay out of that situation as best as possible. When he met his wife, her fearlessness, drive and determination were things he saw in himself, and knew he wanted to be there to support her in her aspirations and dreams, becoming HIS aspirations and dreams. Little did he know, that was the beginning of a 30 year PLUS business journey. So join me, as William shares his story and journey, and Business Your Mind. This podcast is sponsored by BetterHelp.

Moses Avant had an amazing life working a great corporate job after college...but he had other plans...he decided what life he wanted, so he gave up his dream car, social life, everything beyond "bare bones," so that he could save 75% of his income (an amount that would increase with salary increases and job promotions). All so that he could live the life he wanted...he truly "lived a life for a few years that most won't, to live a life most can't." Tune in to our latest episode of Business Your Mind!

Amazing story! Moses went "Bare Bones" to reach a goal he had set up across 4 years! I think he's a Shaolin Monk...because the discipline to do this HAS to be strong! If I heard something like this while I was in my early 20's, it absolutely would've been a GAME CHANGER!!! Hopefully it can inspire you too!
