[SPECIAL] My 5k THANK YOU Letter To YOU! 🎁

Thank YOU & Cheers 🥂 to 5k! I’ve been meaning to do this for a while… time just got away from me if you know what I mean — First & foremost I wanted to say THANK YOU to all of my subscribers, fans, followers, friends, family, mom, boyfriend, students, dogs, cat, and everyone that has supported me like my secret Fan Club Fam — from watching my videos & all of your likes, shares, comments, subscribes, questions, emails, DMs, testimonials, to reading all my blog posts and social post etc!!!

You have no idea what it means to me… You have allowed me to create a life and business I love! I never would have imagined I’d be using my finance degree for filming!

It was 8 years ago I decided to take a leap of faith and quit my job to start a business. But it took me 6 months to prepare for my departure! And RV living wasn’t even on my radar at the time! All I cared about was starting a business, making my own schedule, building my own empire and making productive use of my time!

I can’t tell you how scary it is to jump into not only becoming an entrepreneur but also an RVer at the same time! They are almost one in the same to be honest lol but you’re diving into the unknown, unfamiliar territory, something new and different!

Yet, here we are all these years later and 5,000 of you decided to follow along! So again THANK YOU I Wrote you a letter and sat down to read it along with a little toast of Moet Champagne with you!

00:00:00 foreign [Music] okay I don’t know how much time I have and I’ve been meaning to do this for a while and I know that things may look a little crazy I’m not in my RV right now I’m actually in the penthouse but I’ve been meaning to do this for a while and so I wrote you a letter and I wanted to tell you thank you and give you I guess a little behind the scenes of my life because this is kind of what it looks like this is my thank you letter to my 5 000 subscribers I’m so excited about this I was actually just trying to find a

00:01:03 really beautiful Viewpoint for me to make this but there’s not any okay so I wrote you this letter and I figured I would read it to you first and foremost I just wanted to say that this camera angle is a little janky okay so like I said I’ve been meaning to do this for a while time just gotta wait for me if you know what I mean hit that like button below subscribe to this Channel and tap that little bell icon so you’re notified each and every time I publish a new video and if we haven’t officially met um blogging Brandy I’m

00:01:41 not sure where to start but first and foremost I just wanted to say thank you thank you to all my subscribers my fans my followers my friends my family my mom my boyfriend my students dogs my cat and everyone that has supported me like my secret fan club I like I gay from watching my videos to all of your likes your shares your comments your subscribes your questions your emails your DMs your testimonials to reading all of my blog posts and watching all these videos and all my social media posts I honestly just

00:02:18 wanted to tell you thank you from the bottom of my heart you have no idea what it means to me to see all of your comments likes and subscribes and shares and Views it really just warms my heart because making these videos is not something that I would say comes or came naturally to me I really just try to share parts of my life in hopes that you can follow me and make some of your dreams come true following along my journey you’ve allowed me to create a life in business that I would have never imagined and having and that I love I

00:02:57 never thought that I would be using my degree in finance for filming and making videos it was eight years ago that I decided to take a leap of faith and quit my job to start a business but it took me six months to prepare for my departure and RV living wasn’t even on my radar so I don’t know if I’ve ever shown this on this channel and um just in case you’re wondering why this is all weird behind the scenes we just refinished this entire house I gave you a pre-tour that I’ll drop a link to below this video so when you’re like oh

00:03:33 where’s Brandi at when she’s not an RV this could be one of those places I’m gonna see if the sun’s not too bright that I can show this to you but um actually it’s really bright right there but let’s see if we can see this there’s a place that I used to work over here in finance so reforest rving I was using my finance degree to film not film to do Finance so if you see this is Buckhead so I’ve shown this before another do you see this little building right here with that little um Mooney on it

00:04:16 that the little Half Moon Half Moon right there that one I used to work there and then I used to live I’ve lived in a lot of these buildings but I used to work in this building too um this is called the Terminus building I’m trying to get to a good spot I used to live in this building and I would walk off Moon and then I would walk back home and go to my house and so um if you don’t know my story then I’ll drop it in the link below but that that was my life before I ended up over here and ended up in an RV that was eight

00:04:57 years ago that I put in my resignation and I send my boss an email and I said peace out I’m not working there anymore but getting back to what I was telling you eight years ago I took a leap of faith and I said hey I want out of this place all I cared about at the time like I said RV living wasn’t I’m a reader All I cared about at the time was starting a business making my own schedule building an empire and making productive use of my time because in this job that I had it wasn’t really fulfilling I just

00:05:34 remember going into this job in heaven this kind of like painted smile on my face like hey yeah I’m here to do a job okay but I hated it all I cared about was starting a business and I can’t tell you how scared I was to jump in to not only becoming an entrepreneur but also in arvere okay so and they don’t look like it right now but I felt like there’s no better time to kind of share behind the scenes with you than this special event I can’t tell you how scary it was to not only jump in into becoming

00:06:08 an entrepreneur but also an rver at the same time because I was trying to do both at the same time they’re almost like one in the same honestly because you’re diving into the unknown and unfamiliar territory to something new and different I always remember watching Oprah when I was younger and this one thing that she said stood out to me maybe not in these exact words but you’ll get the point okay so she said you need to find something that you love doing and then figure out how to make money doing it not necessarily make

00:06:41 money doing something that you don’t love or figuring out how to love something that you’re making money doing because it doesn’t really work that way you want to be passionate about the thing that you’re doing and so for the past 37 years yep I’m 37. I think it’s been in my blood since I was a baby so if there’s one lesson I could teach you that I’ve learned from all of this is do not wait do not wait or better yet what are you waiting for and that you need to make a move there’s something that you

00:07:12 can do today right now to make one move towards building a business starting a side hustle doing that thing that you’ve been avoiding maybe that’s entrepreneurship maybe that’s RV life maybe that’s marriage just kidding not really or even fostering or adopting a dog or a cat it could be reading a book watching a webinar booking a call or an appointment writing an email or making a move and taking action no maybe you can’t run out and buy the RV that you’ve been thinking about or the penthouse it

00:07:49 took me five years to get into my RV so into my motorhome and I lived in a trailer before that a van before that even before that I had to make sure that like my finances were in order and that my business was in order and that my life needed to be downsized and mobilized and so much more that’s why I created adversity my university for our viewers that’s why I created rvn for bosses teaching people how to become a digital Nomad and do the same thing that I’m doing is because I really want you to not just look at me and say oh look

00:08:27 at her and her me I actually want you to do the same thing and why I teach you how to do it and I say things like book a sales call with me or take one of my courses or read one of my books is because I truly want you to follow in my footsteps and I always say I feel like I was born to blog or born to do this it’s been in my blood for a while so I’ll put a link below to a lot of these things that I’m talking about so you can check those out I created these things and I put my heart and soul into these not

00:08:56 only into this channel but into my courses and my programs and my coaching because it’s something that means so much to me I honestly can’t tell you where I would be right now without two things that always come to mind when I tell people if you wanted to step out and take a leap of faith there’s two things that I was doing that caused me to quit my job and like dive into RV life or dive into this entrepreneurship journey and so the first one was a book called The Four Hour Work Week by 10 embarrass and I remember sitting in my

00:09:30 office over there and my boss was sitting beside me and we had these I had like three computer screens because I worked on a trading desk I had this book propped up it was kind of like this like reading and he would be talking to me and I would be like huh but I was really like just typing away on my computer and I was reading this book secretly so I just remember reading the four hour work week and if you haven’t picked it up I’ll put a link to it below this video it is an affiliate link so if you click

00:10:00 it and you buy it on Amazon I get a little itty bitty commission which is one way that you can make money online doing your own thing is affiliate links so I talk a lot about making money online also made several videos about that I’ll put links to that below this video as well and so the four hour work week is the first thing that I feel like really pushed me into my journey and then the second thing that I feel like did it for me was a webinar that I watched online and it was by the startup Bros it was about importing and

00:10:33 exporting items that you got from like China or overseas some of them were here in the US and so I learned how to Import and Export items and make money doing that and then it led me into this other thing called reselling I’ll learn how to take these items I was buying a like Goodwill Target anywhere clearanced and then I got into doing online palettes that I would have shipped to my house in my condo over there I would have these huge truck would show up with a pallet and drop this palette off downstairs and

00:11:08 I would have to hurry up and unload everything and then I even had a little office down the street which was a horrible business move but I was running this little business doing reselling online to where I actually quit my job in finance and lived in my condo and so I was flipping these items online and making money doing it and so it was all really because of one won the startup rows and also the four hour work week so I read this book and it kind of gave me this entrepreneur Vibe and I was like

00:11:33 okay I know I can do this thing and so I was trying to find this thing that I can do because my very first business idea was starting this like Vape business and I didn’t Vape or do any of that stuff and it was highly regulated I couldn’t run ads on it like Google ads or Facebook ads or even YouTube videos because it was considered like a XXX thing like an adult product I kind of learned that the hard way okay it was a fail and I felt bad selling it and so I did the reselling and then the reselling

00:12:03 led me to one thing and another thing and another thing and I’ve made some videos about this but I actually have a course that I taught about reselling that I’ll drop a link to below this video if you’re interested in that and it’s something that I still kind of do now on the road when I’m rving or I’ll leave items at my mom’s house or I’ll ship them to a warehouse and I’ve had people ship them for me it just depends on what I’m doing links Below in the description to all the fun stuffs in our courses and books but yeah I teach you

00:12:32 how to build websites not just how to RV and downsize and mobilize but I have courses on building businesses and other things that I’ve done before I became an overview if you keep waiting what I wanted to tell you is that you’re gonna miss the opportunity that you’re given right now so do you know what it feels like you probably don’t but do you know what it feels like to get ready to publish a video only to find out that the person that was in the video that you’re talking about is dead like they’re not even here that happened to

00:13:04 me it put me almost in a stage fright to where I didn’t even publish the video I still have not published the video and I’m just like you have to do it Brandy so some people tell me they won’t RV until they find someone to go with them and I think that I made that mistake and you are making a mistake if you’re doing that of losing precious time what if the person that you’re waiting for is already on the road waiting for you or maybe you’re worried what others are going to think and so maybe you avoid

00:13:35 making that choice in your life like quitting that job or selling your stuff better yet buying stuff that you can’t even afford or that you don’t need or that’s keeping you from living in an RV or doing that thing that you’re wanting to do also if you’re waiting on a person or saying like oh I’ll do it when I get that person what if you get that person and then they die don’t you ever think about that I mean I actually got a letter from someone and it broke my heart because it was like one of those

00:14:02 things that you think about and you’re like God forbid that happened that happened to my uncle but I got an email from someone telling me that they saved up all their life and they finally bought an RV and then their spouse their husband passed away from for from them and so now they have this RV and they’re like what do I do and it’s like that’s why I say don’t wait this opportunity might pass you by or might not come back up for you I challenge you to think from another point of view of what others might think that there’s

00:14:34 someone or something out there that could use that thing that you have if you’re worried about say like downsizing or mobilizing think about like okay someone out there can use something that’s sitting in your closet and I’m sure if you knew someone needed that jacket or this dress a watch a piece of paper or something you wouldn’t be sitting there saying oh I’m not going to give this to you I remember at Christmas I saw this thing on the news about these people needing they had a warming Center

00:15:01 it was so cold outside and I got my mom and everybody around me to donate all the things I had as well as theirs jackets and warm blankets and anything that we had that I was sitting there holding on to is sitting in my room I was like oh my God I have all these things that someone else can use that’s freezing and so we went and dropped them off downtown and so that’s why I challenge you don’t be sitting here waiting on a moment or an opportunity before you start making a move to downsize or mobilize or do that thing

00:15:32 even if you’re wanting to RV or build a business you could be doing something right now even if you were in this exact moment there’s things you can be doing I challenge you to think from another point of view and make a move starting something new no matter what it is is always going to be scary but let me tell you facing a fear of yours is going to give you Freedom plus if you don’t make a move today today is going to become tomorrow and then next week and then next month and then next year and then

00:16:02 so on and so on and you know the rest it’s never going to happen so trust me I told you I’ve been meaning to write you this letter for a while and I wanted to say thank you and I wanted to pop a bottle of champagne that I’ve had sitting around I actually have like three bottles of champagne that people have given me and I said oh I’m gonna pop it when I hit 100 subs and then a thousand and then two thousand and three thousand and here we are at 5 000 subscribers and I still have not popped a bottle I should

00:16:32 and so before you know it this bottle of champagne will have gone bad and I will have missed my opportunity to have had it plus the moment we’ll have come and gone and so it’ll be like oh hey let me celebrate my 5 000 subscribers and I’ll be at ten thousand or maybe I might not be here but my boyfriend reminds me all the time that this champagne or several of the bottles that I have sitting around asking me when are you gonna pop it and I keep saying oh tomorrow tomorrow I’m gonna pop it and so my point that I wanted to

00:17:07 tell you is one thank you and I want to encourage you to be bold make a move tell your story and be different because when I told my story on this channel it really set in for me of what God was trying to use me what my purpose was on this Earth and who I was trying to be I actually from me telling that story part one which you might have seen on this channel and why I decided to live in an RV encouraged me or caused me to create part you in 2023 at the beginning of this year and I wrote you another letter

00:17:45 kind of like this one there’s a part one and a part two more of an updated version and kind of while we’re not in my RV right now so if you haven’t seen my story I’m gonna drop it in the link below this video in the description maybe you want an RV or start a business or learn how to paint buy an expensive car travel to a foreign destination whatever it is okay are we living or not do something that’s what I want you to do is to do something today I want you to take action and make a move because

00:18:19 you’re not promised tomorrow and even if you are if you wait until tomorrow it’s going to become next week and next month and before you know it you’re gonna have waited too long or worse the opportunity might have come and gone kind of like this letter that I wanted to write you or this champagne again that I’ve never popped and now I gotta figure out how to open it you know because I never drink champagne or pop champagne so we’re going to finally pop this bottle of champagne and make a toast

00:19:00 to this and so I’ve got this little bottle and just hopefully this did not get shaken up wow [Music] I was in the elevator and walking up here I’m so scared of this I’m so scared of this oh my gosh oh okay so I’m actually really not a champagne drinker but I brought this whole one and I wanted to do a little toast with you let’s do it together okay and I figured it is actually only 8 45 in the morning I can’t just drink champagne so if you’re we do the little orange juice and have a little mimosa
