Perry was deep in thought at a church worship service one night when a complete stranger walked up to him and told him exactly what he was thinking about (a math problem, of all things) and that he was going to figure it out if he just kept working on it. Then, as she was about to walk away, she turned around and shared one more thing which brought him to the edge of tears because it was known by NOBODY ELSE in his life. And that’s just the beginning of this story. Perry's Website: https://www.perrymarshall.com/ About Perry: Perry Marshall is one of the most expensive business strategists in the world.

Julie wanted to be a school teacher. At the end of her degree program she was student teaching with someone who told her she had no business working with people, especially children, and would be better off working in a cubicle by herself never interacting with others. As a result, her confidence was decimated. It took her two years after that experience to find a teaching job because she didn't believe in herself. Then she met another teacher who began to pour truth into her. During that time she came to faith in Christ and started saying "Yes" to God's promptings; that's when EVERYTHING began to change. The transformation has been gradual, powerful and undeniable. Now she helps others say "Yes" and is living life in a way she previously could only have imagined.

Several years ago Blair Reynolds experienced such a powerfully transformative moment, he resigned from the job he was in and 14 days later became a Life Consultant. In that role he helps others uncover their true identity - that is, the person God uniquely created them to be. He says, "The world is craving the revelation of your true identity, and the things that we put in place of that, such as anxiety, confusion, depression, broken relationships, are actually adaptive ways of living.
