Hearing people dictate who you are in life, directly or indirectly, can make or break you. Growing up, we are naturally wired to chase for validation in pursuit of acceptance. Without any of that, when does this end? Here, Jen Du Plessis discusses her story on how she overcame this hurdle of proving instead of living. Jen Du Plessis, America’s Mortgage Mastery Mentor helps mortgage loan officers and real estate agents who are overwhelmed, stressed out, and sabotaging their personal lives for the sake of their business to multiply results in record time and have the courage to say yes to their personal lives (which sometimes means saying no to clients). During fifteen of her 37-year career in the mortgage industry, Jen has been listed in the top 1% of loan officers nationwide; spending 3 years in the top 200 of nationally ranked originators, and has funded over $1 Billion in mortgage loans. She is recognized as an Influencer in her industry as the best-selling author of LAUNCH-How to Take Your Business to New Heights, top podcast host of Mortgage Lending Mastery, and highly sought out and charismatic speaker; speaking on stages with such icons as Darren Hardy, Tony Robbins, and Les Brown.

“I'm done with this [proving myself]. There's got to be a better way, there has to be a better way to live, there has to be a better way to achieve, get where I want to go. That is a way that is fulfilling.” - Jen Du Plessis
“And now that's what made me say, okay, they didn't tell me I'd had enough. I didn't get what I wanted from them. I will never get what I want from them. So I'm going to get what I want for myself.” - Jen Du Plessis
