The Garage

Her mom was selling the house. There was nowhere to go. $927 a month in disability. A daughter who needed her to figure it out. And absolutely no idea what she was doing.

This is Episode 7 of Diagnose This. The one where things turn. Not because everything was suddenly fine. Because she decided to show up anyway, one more time.

She signed a six-month lease on a $700 a month office because six months was all she could commit to. The disability check was $927. She was terrified. The goal was $1,000 the first month. She made $3,000. She kept going.

None of it was on the dance card. All of it started in a garage.

What you’ll learn about:

The improv class, the bag with her face on it, and the worst nightmare that happened in five seconds
Signing a six-month lease on $927 a month because she was too scared to commit to a year
$1,000 goal. $3,000 first month. $240,000 first year. No investors.
The converted garage, the bunk beds, the 20 miniature ponies with special diets
Meeting David — and why falling in love again was one of the bravest things she ever did
Closing the clinic before COVID, moving to Mexico, and 150Xing revenue in seven months
