  • The Boylan Sisters Share the Power of Filmmaking for Purpose
    Nov 15 2024

    The Boylan Sisters, Alexandra and Andrea, have built a thriving independent filmmaking career centered around faith-based, family-friendly content. After years of struggling in the entertainment industry, Alexandra shifted gears by moving to New Mexico and co-founding a production company with Andrea. Together, they have produced six films, co-writing scripts, overseeing production, and raising private investment to bring their projects to life. With Alexandra acting in many of their films and Andrea designing the production elements, their complementary talents have allowed them to create a unique niche in the film industry, offering uplifting stories that inspire faith, hope, and resilience.

    What sets the Boylan Sisters apart is their unwavering commitment to empowering young women, both through their films and by breaking barriers in a traditionally male-dominated industry. Their passion for storytelling is matched by their desire to build a brand that reflects their values, and they have worked hard to position themselves as role models for women pursuing careers in film. By rebranding themselves as "The Boylan Sisters," they are strengthening their identity and working toward larger opportunities, including collaborations with streaming platforms like Netflix, all while keeping their focus on creating content that uplifts and inspires.

    For those inspired by the Boylan Sisters' journey, they offer more than just their films. Alexandra and Andrea have also written books that share insights into their experiences in the film industry, offering valuable advice for aspiring filmmakers, women in business, and anyone seeking to break through obstacles in pursuit of their dreams.

  • The Power of Prioritizing Needs vs. Wants: Money Mastery with Derick L. Gant
    Nov 13 2024

    With a career spanning multiple decades and marked by significant reinvention, Derick Gant has a compelling story of transformation and growth. After starting his professional life in retail management, he realized the limitations of the industry in terms of financial growth and fulfillment. Seeking a more rewarding path, he transitioned into financial consulting, where he spent over three decades navigating the complexities of commission-based advising and building lasting relationships with clients. As his career evolved, Gant recognized that true financial health wasn’t just about investments but about empowering individuals to manage their money, make informed decisions, and prioritize long-term stability.

    In 2007, Gant shifted focus from investment advising to money coaching, offering clients practical tools for managing their finances, reducing debt, and prioritizing needs over wants. His work moved away from traditional wealth-building and instead emphasized financial discipline, self-awareness, and holistic money management. By stopping new investment clients, he was able to dedicate himself to coaching people on sustainable financial practices that aligned with their values and life goals.

    Gant expanded his impact with the 24k Life Code, a framework for self-improvement based on five pillars: mindset, money, health, relationships, and spirituality. This approach encourages individuals to develop a personal code of honor and create balanced, fulfilling lives. Through his 24k Life community and 90-day challenges, Gant fosters accountability and growth. To learn more about his work or begin your own transformation, schedule a discovery call to explore how his guidance can help you achieve your personal and financial goals.

  • How Startup Junkie and KIVA Empower Entrepreneurship with Claudia Scott
    Nov 11 2024

    From the vibrant landscapes of Costa Rica to the entrepreneurial heart of Arkansas, one woman’s journey is transforming the way we think about business, inclusivity, and opportunity. Claudia Scott, diagnosed with Tourette syndrome at a young age, has used her personal experiences to fuel her advocacy for neurodiversity and underserved communities. Through her work with organizations like Startup Junkie and KIVA Northwest Arkansas, Claudia is opening doors to entrepreneurship for those who have traditionally been overlooked.

    Through her work, Claudia has championed initiatives like microloans through KIVA, which have had a significant impact on women entrepreneurs. With 88% of loans directed at women-owned businesses, the program empowers individuals who may otherwise lack access to traditional financial systems. Additionally, Claudia has worked to make entrepreneurship more inclusive by introducing loans for non-binary entrepreneurs and ensuring that people from all walks of life—whether with criminal backgrounds or unique challenges—have the tools to succeed.

    Looking ahead, Claudia Scott is focused on expanding her work internationally and reaching more communities in need. She is exploring partnerships in Costa Rica and other regions, aiming to foster entrepreneurship globally. Her work also includes outreach to rural farmers and those with criminal convictions, addressing their specific barriers to starting businesses. Claudia’s overarching philosophy, captured in her motto "Everything passes," underscores her belief that, with the right support, anyone can overcome challenges and build a better future through entrepreneurship.
