😩You're not a failure. You're not alone.


One mom's story of raising a son through severe mental illness, and finding her way.

For years, Stacy Ross thought she was failing as a mom. Her oldest kept getting sicker, the diagnoses kept missing, and she felt completely alone. Then she learned that 17 million other parents were carrying the same weight. Stacy is the author of Searching for Slippers, a memoir about raising a child with borderline personality disorder, and her story is one of hope.

Her message is simple. Honor what's really happening in your home, because you can't fix a problem until you admit there is one. Don't carry it alone, build your support network on purpose. And when the life you dreamed of doesn't come, rewrite the fairy tale instead of forcing the old one. Watch the full conversation and pass it to a parent who needs it.

P.S. Stacy isn't naive enough to think the shoes ever stop dropping. She just wanted them to land a little lighter, like slippers.

In a shrinking-margin economy, his focus on profit over volume is worth hearing. 3 Lessons Learned Serve first, sell second.

Most people chase a goal and fight themselves the whole way. Bob Raybould figured out how to win that fight before it starts. At 90, he's still building, still hiking two to three hours at a stretch, and still trying to hand people the tool that quadrupled his income in 30 months, then doubled it every year after. His idea is simple. Build the mindset of someone who's already succeeded before you begin, so your subconscious starts working for you instead of against you. As Bob put it, "I...
