Plant A Seed

The job you've been waiting for was never coming.

According to the International Labour Organization's Global Employment Trends for Youth 2024 report, nearly 65 million young adults worldwide are unemployed right now. Not because they lack talent. Not because they lack ideas. Because they were taught to wait for a system that was never designed to deliver.

That is why I built Build It Own It.

In 90 days, you will identify a real problem in your community, design a business around it, and test it with real people. Live coaching. Peer accountability. No prior experience required. Rates start at $141 for young adults in economically challenged communities.

The first cohort launches August 10, 2026. Once we reach 30 applicants, it closes. No exceptions.

If you are ready, claim your spot. If you know someone who is, send this to them. If you want to sponsor a seat for someone who cannot afford one, that option is there, too.

Stop waiting. Start building.

🌺 Hello everyone,

For those of us building in the coaching, education, and consulting space, one challenge continues to show up: many people have strong knowledge and real experience, but they are not being measured correctly by the market, by institutions, or even by themselves. 💼

As I have been building my own business, applying what I am learning, and growing through the process, that reality became even clearer to me. It is part of what led me to write:

The Million Dollar Mind: 🧠
How to Build a World-Class Coaching Business From What You Already Know

📕 This book is not only about pricing. It is about recognizing, structuring, and communicating the value of what you already know. It includes practical guidance, worksheets, and tools to help readers think more clearly about their expertise, positioning, and business model.

If you serve an audience of professionals building businesses around their expertise and would like to explore a partnership or revenue-sharing opportunity, please send me a direct message. 🤝

I’m so excited to finally share this with you. 🎉

🔑 Preorders are now open for my new book, The Million Dollar Mind

How to Build a World-Class Coaching Business From What You Already Know

💎 The value is already in your hands.
This book shows you how to make it visible.

This is a practical guide for professionals who want to turn what they already know into structured, credible, measurable, and repeatable value. It is not a book about hype, personality, or charging more for the sake of it.

📖 Inside the book, you’ll learn how to:
• price with clarity, not guesswork
• build offers grounded in outcomes and proof
• grow an ethical, scalable coaching business

🎓 Early endorsements for the book include:
Dayle M. Smith, Ph.D., Dean of the College of Business Administration at Loyola Marymount University, writes that The Million Dollar Mind “genuinely advances the field” and is “a book about being measured correctly, by clients, by institutions, and by oneself.”

Eugene P. Kim, PhD, Chair of Organizational Change and Professor of Leadership at Concordia University Irvine, calls it “a great companion to any coaching curriculum.”

One of our longest-running and most impactful projects at Plant A Seed - Africa is our Youth Activities Program. Since 2021, we (Rebecca Akumbu, Rashel Mereness, donors, and more) have had the privilege of engaging with young learners in Babanki Tungo, Cameroon, through our annual Youth Activities and Book Drive. Every summer, this initiative springs to life, offering students a unique blend of team-building exercises and educational opportunities. It’s a vibrant space where learning, collaboration, and community building intersect—and we are incredibly proud of the impact it has made over the years.
