Have you ever transformed your passion into a thriving seven-figure business with just $85? Join us as we sit down with Sarah Kelsey, the inspiring force behind Rhinestone Lipgloss, who turned her dream into a sparkling reality. From the horse show circuit to crafting dazzling earrings that caught the attention of country music artists like Dolly, Reba and Miranda; Sarah's story is a testament to the power of resilience, creativity, and a little bit of sparkle. Learn how she navigated personal and professional challenges with what she calls "embracing the suck," turning obstacles into opportunities for growth and reinvention.

Sarah's journey from a Mandarin Chinese interpreter to an entrepreneur is a fascinating tale of chasing potential, both in life and business. Discover how she transitioned from a stifling relationship to finding a partner who truly supported her ambitions, leading to the creation of her brand and a best selling book, "The Game Changer." Along the way, Sarah highlights the importance of a supportive community and logical decision-making, sharing personal anecdotes that illustrate how embracing reality, rather than mere optimism, can lead to profound personal and professional growth.

We also explore the challenges Sarah faced, such as the Swarovski crisis, which threatened to derail her business. Through sheer determination and innovation, she created her own line of rhinestones, showcasing the importance of adaptability and persistence. Sarah's story isn't just about business success; it's about breaking barriers, defying traditional mindsets, and embracing possibilities regardless of background or experience. Tune in to be inspired by Sarah's unique approach to entrepreneurship and learn how you can craft a life you don't need a vacation from.
