A year ago today Jocelyn and I joined over 100 people from all over the world were in Lexington, KY for the 2nd annual Flip Your Life LIVE!
“The Flip Your Life Family Reunion” as we like to call it, is an annual event for FYL community members to come together, learn together, work together, and celebrate the wins of the past year.
Our first BIG 100+ person Flip Your Life LIVE was in Nashville in 2018.
Live events played an important role in our development as entrepreneurs and online business owners…
Our goal was to have an event that could give that same opportunity to our members, listeners, followers and fans.
The first two years were a crazy success… people from 35+ states, and 10 countries came to “Flip Their Lives” with a couple kids from Southeast Kentucky…
It was a sight to see…
In 2020, the Coronavirus hit…
And live events big, medium, and small all closed their doors and shut down.
Like everyone else, all of our plans and goals changed in an instant.
We transitioned our smaller live event schedule into virtual events (which were actually so fun and value packed, we scheduled and sold two more online workshops)…
Luckily we had not booked a venue or signed any contracts for Flip Your Life LIVE 2020… that could have been a $100,000+ disaster…
But on the 1-year anniversary of the last Flip Your Life LIVE, I realize now how important that event was to me, our family, our team, and our community.
I desperately WISH we were all together in a Southern city right now…
Catching up on family photos…
Embracing in long hugs with the Community members we lead virtually every day…
Laughing… hearing stories… working on our dreams….
Honoring the members who are achieving at a high level…
Inspiring members who are just getting started…
…
NOT being at Flip Your Life LIVE for the first time in 3 years…
It chokes me up… I’m literally tearing up while I write this.
FYL LIVE is a stressful task…
It takes a LOT of work…
Hundreds of man hours in prep, creative, and marketing…
The days are long….
Jocelyn was in the make up chair at 6AM, and we didn’t make it back to the room until midnight and night during the event…
But that old saying so true…
You just don’t know what you’ve got until it’s gone.

This morning I saw Flip Your Life LIVE attendees sharing pictures and tagging friends they met at the event…
I wish we were all there now!
Seeing these posts, experiencing the lockdowns of 2020, and remembering those good times inspired a few thoughts this morning…
Thought 1: I am so PROUD of The Flip Your Life Community!
Our goal was always to create a true FAMILY FOCUSED community. A place where people could make their dreams a reality online, and build a better future for their family.
Not sure I ever really imagined the Community would BECOME a family.
I see our members interact on social media on a daily basis, here stories of in person masterminds popping up, and more than one person has told me their best friends were found in the Flip Your Life Community, and cemented at Flip Your Life Live.
Of all the things we have accomplished, I think that the bonds from Flip Your Life LIVE are what I’m most proud of…
Thought 2: We WILL have Flip Your Life LIVE again!
I am planting seeds now for the day when the world fully reopens, when the pandemic is nothing but a memory, and we can all be in the same place again.
I’ve met with our amazing live event coordinator Amber Bowling of https://amberbowling.com/…
I’ve secured “right of first refusal” for a bigger venue next year…
A venue that can hold up to 900 people…
A venue that can inspire, where we can entertain, where we can change lives!
Thought 3: This event needs to be accessible, and open for ALL members…
NOT being able to be together has changed my idea of what this event should be…
Live events are EXPENSIVE to run y’all…
It costs a lot of money to put a lot of people in a room for three days…
But this event needs to be available for everyone…
I want it accessible, and affordable, for everyone in our audience and community to attend.
In a place where anyone can easily drive or fly…
A ticket price that fits into any family’s budget…
A real chance to get out there, AND TAKE ACTION, for anyone who wants to attend…
A bigger event…
A better event…
An event that changes lives, and the world.
That’s what Flip Your Life LIVE will become!
–
This has been a long year y’all.
We’ve all lost so much.
But it’s going to pass, and things will not just get back to normal…
It will not be the same as before, that world is gone…
But that’s OK…
We will make it better!
And while we can’t be together in person now, we still have the next best thing:
The Flip Your Life Community ONLINE!
We are still masterminding every day in the best community of family-focused entrepreneurs online!
Starting, building, and growing online companies every single day!
Helping each other, growing together, and “Flipping Our Lives” one membership at a time!
