“I owe other humans my honesty”- Danette May

Today we have a great episode with Roland Frasier and Danette May, the founder of Mindful Health and iRise organics. She’s a world-renowned motivational speaker, #1 best-selling author (of seven health and empowerment books), and former celebrity fitness trainer.

Just a few years ago she was a single mom with nothing to her name, but she had a clear dream to "Inspire women to change their bodies through healing foods, healing movement, and healing mindset - so that they could rise up”. Her companies are now scaling so fast that she has to be fiercely intentional about keeping the brand authenticity.

Roland and Danette get into some great topics and takeaways today, but if you want to dig deeper, visit Danette’s website and connect with her on social media (scroll down for links). 

“It's been 5 and a half years. We literally started with $47. I had $47 to my name and then in 5 years we hit the high 8 figures” Danette May
