My Drake Story - A Story of Perseverance

Crystal Uncorked

This is a story that I bet so many people can relate to because so many times over the past 11 years of owning Crystal Media, there have been meetings, partnerships, and clients that have initially created this feeling of, "Oh, this is it. We made it. This is the tipping point. This is big!" And then things don't happen. This is a story about perseverance because even though it doesn't happen you just keep going and you keep going and you keep going until you find your success.

This is my Drake story.

[01:36] Here is how I got the meeting with Drake’s team and Virginia Black Whiskey. Can we talk about the imposter syndrome?

[02:51] Do clothes really make the woman? And why is it so hard to find the right thing to wear!?!

[04:50] When faced with imposter syndrome, instead of focusing on the nerves, focus on being of service in that moment, maybe teach them something and remind yourself how wonderful you really are.

[05:37] The meeting with Drake’s people. I was hot, sweaty and uncomfortable…what did I get myself into?

[09:58] The results of the meeting and how it made me feel and the lessons we learned.

[13:11] How I look at opportunities that don’t always work out the way that we wanted them to.
