87. Melanie & Ailani | DYNAMIC Mother, Daughter Duo Using their Success to FIGHT Human Trafficking!

Join us for an inspiring Mother's Day special as we sit down with Melanie, a remarkable mother, and entrepreneur, whose daughter, Ailani, is making waves in the worlds of pageantry, fashion, and activism. I had the pleasure of meeting Melanie at the grand opening of a gym in Doral, where we struck up a conversation about her daughter's incredible achievements. From winning the Miss Teen Florida International Pageant to gracing the runways of Paris Fashion Week and starring in a movie combatting child trafficking, Ailani's journey is nothing short of extraordinary. Melanie shared with us her parenting style and how she has nurtured Ailani's talents and passions. But Melanie's story is equally inspiring. After 25 years as an ER nurse, she took a "quantum leap of faith" to pursue a career in deal-making, connecting buyers and sellers. Her tales of navigating this unique industry left me in awe, and I knew I had to learn more. This episode marks the first Mother-Daughter feature on our podcast, and it couldn't have come at a more fitting time than Mother's Day. What stands out about Melanie and Ailani is their commitment to using their platform for good, embodying the values of empowerment and giving back. Throughout our conversation, the themes of mindset and impact emerged as key takeaways. I hope that listeners, both parents, and young individuals, will find inspiration in Melanie and Ailani's story, as they continue to make a difference in the world.
