  • NIKOLE MITCHELL | From Pastor to OnlyFans Millionaire

    Nikole Mitchell is a kickass life coach who helps people create the life of their dreams and thrive in all areas of life. She helps dreamers, leaders, and celebrities by expanding their beliefs, clearing any blocks, and getting them into the flow where they can find everything they are looking for. Mitchell has a big calling on her life and wants to help others access their own dream lives.

    Previously, Mitchell was the poster child for people-pleasing, perfection, and a scarcity mindset, but she shed those layers that no longer served her. She came out publicly as queer, left the Christian faith, and owned the fullness of who she was, even if it meant disappointing important people in her life. This newfound freedom allowed her to go from relying on food stamps to making multiple six figures doing what she loves, which is life coaching and modeling.

    Through her work as a speaker, writer, and life coach, Mitchell aims to change individual lives and bring people together from all walks of life, equipping them with the tools to go back to their communities and make the world a more beautiful place. She believes that struggling and suffering are not required and that ease and flow are a birthright, and she is passionate about helping others access this abundance and opportunities.

  • PAUL PIERCE | No Fear of Failure

    Ask Paul Pierce, and he will tell you: When you have suffered, when you have failed, when you have known what it is to be humbled — when you endure all of that and emerge on top, triumph is all the sweeter. The journey of the 6’7″ Hall of Fame forward, from the playgrounds of L.A. to superstardom and back again, is astounding both for its success and how it was achieved.

    From his childhood through college and the NBA, Paul toiled on the court, working tirelessly on his game, never with fanfare, always with confidence. Throughout a 19-year NBA career, No. 34 was a consummate player, stalwart defender and offensive dynamo. At his peak, he famously faced up and defeated LeBron James and Kobe Bryant in the same championship playoff run.

    An all-star, NBA champion and Finals MVP, he has lived up to the meaning of his nickname — the Truth — by staying true to himself.
