Machu Picchu.

Thought I'd be bored then this happened...

In 2020 I left America.

Time for a new life.

I lived in:

- Colombia
- Ecuador
- Peru
- Argentina
- Brazil
- Mexico

In Lima, Peru...

I had the chance to fly to Cusco, Peru.

Home of the ancient Incan empire.

And visit famous Machu Picchu.

"But it's a big tourist trap".

"It'll likely be boring."

Went anyway.

❌ Wrong.

Cusco enchanted me.

The colors, art, and people.

The ancient wisdom and culture.

Then I took the train the Machu Picchu...

And was blown away.

✅ I felt at home.

As though I'd arrived.

To a magical destination.

Alongside thousands of visitors.

This trip was more of a pilgrimage.

Seeing those magical ruins.

Gave me a huge smile.

And joy in my body.

Instead of boredom, I found the freedom and aliveness I'd been looking for.

Wherever you're at in your life journey, I hope you find it too.

Living in Mexico for 16 months...

Here are my 8 must-see locations:

1. Mexico City

Solid lodging, incredible museums, and walkable! Mexico City has great street food and fine dining that will never leave you wanting for new flavors. An international hub with amazing history that will give you the feeling of being a local from day one. A must-see!

2. Guadalajara

Guadalajara is the second-largest city in Mexico and is great for day-to-day living as the people are kind and the weather is mild. With tequila farms and mariachi bands never far away, you will get all the pros of Mexican culture without the fast-paced lifestyle found in CDMX.

3. Oaxaca

Oaxaca City is fun for a week, with art galleries, colonial architecture, and the savory mole that will explode your taste buds with spices and marinated meats that you'll never forget. The Oaxacan coast, including Puerto Escondido, Mazunte, and Huatulco to the south, has excellent beaches with picture-perfect sunsets.

4. San Miguel de Allende

A super beautiful “Pueblo Mágico” a few hours north of Mexico City. Colorful buildings with great cafes and restaurants inside. The artist scene there is crazy good, paired with cobblestone streets outside; it makes for picturesque days. Great for bed and breakfast travellers who prefer a less rugged experience. Honeymoon vibes, check.

5. Merida in the Yucatán

Hot weather, browner people (more Mayans in the south), and Caribbean influences. Day or night, the town is poppin', vibrant, international, and rated the safest area in Mexico. Awesome architecture with daily tours to Chichen-Itza and freshwater cenote pools to dive into and completely refresh your senses.

6. Los Cabos

Great for shorter, relaxed stays down the coast and hard partying in the central area near the famous arches. Known for golf courses and scenic drives along the beachside highway, the American-influenced destination offers great hotels and lots of English-speaking locals.

7. Puerto Vallarta

PV is beautiful, with it's hillside hotels tucked into the jungle and overlooking the ocean. You could make breakfast together with your partner while enjoying the stunning view. Great restaurant scene and classic Mexican tourist nightlife, with some solid spots for dancing and live music.

8. San Cristóbal de las Casas

Cold, crisp bubble-down jacket weather with a distinct local indigenous culture. An interesting mix of European and American backpackers and Mexican family vacationers. Really interesting vibe for nomad cafes, Italian hole-in-the-wall restaurants, and a naturally "left-leaning" political flair from the Chiapas guerreros. Ancient temples, mountainous ravines, and jungle waterfalls are key attractions.

You've enjoyed Cancun.

Now it's time to see more of Mexico.

Who knows, you might even find a home here.

The hidden job market has unlimited job opportunities for black men.

But only these brothers have access:

Bro's willing to take action.

Hoping, wishing, podcasting, newslettering, and YouTubing for information don't work.

Here's what does:

1. Identify the role you want
2. Reach out to a worker there
3. Have a rapport-building chat
4. Ask to speak with the recruiter
5. Ask the recruiter about open roles

Internal referrals make you 5x more likely to get the job.

The difference between having access and feeling trapped doesn't depend on:

- Your looks
- Your school
- Your fraternity

It comes down to one thing.

Action.

And lots of it.

Now get started.

If you are over 40 and haven’t been promoted to a leadership role…
That’s a problem.

Why?

Because seniority is just as important as salary, and satisfaction.

Contrary to popular belief, you can have them all.

Seniority can:
-Increase your salary
-Increase your status
-Increase your network
-Increase your reputation
-Increase your opportunities
-Increase your confidence
-Increase your fulfillment
-Increase your authority
-Increase your satisfaction
-Increase your company stock
-Increase your prof dev budget
-Increase your leadership abilities
-Increase your job security
-Increase your respect
-Increase your perks

Many of the Black men I coach over 40 who have not been promoted feel…

-Frustrated
-Unfulfilled
-Unappreciated
-Devalued
-Underpaid
-Angry
-Worried
-Doubtful
-Concerned

Whether your organization is holding you back or your own fears are stopping you, I can help.

Dream jobs are impossible for brothers.

Is what so many of us think.

Alongisde:

- I'm too loyal to leave
- Who would want to hire me
- The market is bad right now
- Hiring managers are all racist
- If I stay longer I'll be promoted
- Dream jobs are for other groups

But what if you had the power to:

- Create your own luck
- Find a role your truly love
- Earn more than you make now
- Connect with amazing recruiters
- Have multiple offers come your way
- Finally get the seniority you deserve
- Make a bigger impact with your work

The reality is...

In addition to wanting a new job...

You have a Juggernaut inside of you.

He's a powerful leader waiting to become a dominant voice in your industry.

Everyday you ignore him he dies.

It's time to set him free.

I'm accepting a few new clients for December, DM me to learn more.

How to become a thought leader on LinkedIn:

• Pick one topic you love
• Write about it on LinkedIn every day
• Keep doing number 2 for about 6 months

That is pretty much it.

Ps. Grow your income to 7-figures as a thought leader with the weekly tips I share with 2,100+ motivated Black men: https://lnkd.in/eRUfd_5a

High expectations are the key to your success.

Sure your boss may tell you a report is due by Friday.

But when it comes to them making 7 figures or more, you don't have someone holding you to that standard.

The same thing holds for you making a huge impact on the world.

The philosophy of doing your own thing is nice at times but can be a recipe for failure in your career.

The reality is, you often rise to the level of expectations set for you.

Setting high expectations for you to become the best in the world at what you do is a gift.

I love it when someone sees my potential and refuses to see otherwise.

That's why I give you firm accountability and expectations to help you reach success.
