One Coffee. One Conversation. Life Changing Moment....

[Eshe Harvey]

I had a coffee meeting today with a well-respected figure in real estate that turned into something far beyond what I expected. This wasn't just networking - it was a shift. He told me he sees something in me. He said he'll personally mentor me to help perfect my pitch and business plan - and he wasn't playing. He gave me real homework assignments, and we'll be meeting again to make sure I can articulate the vision, not just dream it. And the most life-changing part?

He said I don't need to worry about funding - he and his team will provide that once the vision is solid and well-crafted, he insisted that money isn't an issue. He is helping me make sure that my vision is solid. But he says he sees my potential or else he would have not taken time out of his very busy schedule to meet with me. He says I am on his radar.

He also told me something that stuck: move intentionally - and be willing to cut ties quickly with anyone who doesn't align with the mission. This journey isn't about pleasing everyone. It's about precision, purpose, and positioning. I'm still taking it all in, but I wanted to share this as a reminder: the right people will meet you where you are - if you're willing to show up prepared, focused, and open.

Hi @Eshe Harvey. As you obviously know, this is tremendously valuable for you. How did you first come in contact with this person? 

 I went to a real estate networking event. We talked for like an hour there and then he said he would love to talk more in person over some coffee and breakfast in a quiet atmosphere. So that was yesterday and he voluntarily agreed to mentor me and provide the capital, him and other wealthy people that he personally know are looking for great ideas to invest in . I am forever thankful. Now the pressure is really on. 

I hate to be the cynic here, but having been around the block a few thousand times.....have you vetted this individual? Checked his background, his past partners, employees, etc....It's easy to do nowadays online. Even though he and his pals are allegedly putting up all the money does not make this a safe deal for you...just be careful.

Not to say you should be looking a gift horse in the mouth, but you know what they say.....'if it's too good to be true....'
