better than I was the last time, baby, we back,

Leaha Crawford 0:38
we back and we back and we back and we back and we back and we back. Hey, hey, hey, good morning Las Vegas. It is a bright and sunny Saturday morning. Oh, my God. We are in March of. February is over. Wow. Julian, yes, ma'am, good morning. Good

Julian Rosado 1:03
morning. How are you? I'm feeling good. It's March, 1 of the year. This is my two months gone. I know, oh my God, my birthday month is over. Yeah, but my birthday

Leaha Crawford 1:13
month is here. Happy birthday to me. Happy birthday. And it's a big birthday for me. So I'm so excited. But I want to say, I mean, honestly, two months of the year have passed. You made your New Year's resolutions. Now we need to see where you are. So today I have somebody in the studio with me, and we're going to talk through just to see, you know, just to check up, check up from the neck up, see if your head is right. I want to welcome Mr. Rodney Taylor back to the show. What's on? Hello.

Rodney Taylor 1:41
How's everybody doing? Amazing. My birthday month also, man,

Overlapping Voices 1:46
is it absolutely your birthday? 25th Oh, yeah, you

after mine? You after mine? Yeah? Is March Aquarius or No? No.

Leaha Crawford 1:53
So he's Aries. Mine is the 16th. I'm a Pisces. So this is Pisces Aries. This is Pisces season. It's a little bit efficient.

Julian Rosado 2:02
I'm an Aquarius. I'm water. Oh, you water. Yeah, that's what. But you wanna know what's

Leaha Crawford 2:05
so interesting, though, people think that the beginning of the year, and I guess Tiffany will talk about this all the time, that the beginning of the year is December 1. But if you think about a cycle spring, everything is new. That's correct. So spring starts in March, so everything is new. So, you know, we can check up. So if you didn't do that stuff that you wanted to do, December 1, I feel that, you know, let's go through March 1. Yes, started on March 1. Got to, you know, let's start it again. Let's bring in the new season. So what you want to talk about today, I know you got your transitional housing, yes, and you're doing the classes. How's that going? The

Rodney Taylor 2:36
houses are doing incredible. Okay. I mean, we're taking people that that are on the street, that people that are that are in the tunnels. We're taking people that are coming out of incarceration, foster children, our former veterans. We're just taking them, moving them into our our transitional houses. And the houses are incredible. I mean, these are houses that you would move into.

Leaha Crawford 3:00
Absolutely. I like that. All right, so transitional housing. Why is that such a big deal right now? What do you think right

Rodney Taylor 3:07
now? There's over 55,000 men and women that are and children that are on the street. Wow. So it's, I mean, it is a huge issue in our community. And you know, as we're going through we decided that we're going to this area because there was a guy who went through our class and we discovered that he was sleeping in the stairwell during our class. We have a three day emotional intelligence workshop. We'll talk a little bit more about that later. But emotional intelligence workshop, it's kind of a leadership workshop, and this gentleman between the between the three days, was sleeping in the stairwell. Wow. So there is a huge issue. And we, we discovered that. We discovered that at the end of the class, and I could not believe that this man was sleeping in the stairwell. He wanted to make sure that he made it to the class, so he that's where

Leaha Crawford 3:52
he slept. Wow, wow. Okay, so he probably was your first client. He

Rodney Taylor 3:56
was one of our first classes, and ever since then, we've been working on transitional housing, we didn't know the time to actually step into it, so a friend of mine came to me and said, I have a house and I don't know what to do with it. Thank you. This is the time. The time is now. No, it's not easy. This, dealing with this population is not easy. Vulnerable population is not easy. But the thing is, we are called to do it, and we've combined that with the emotional intelligence workshop, the job job placement, people are having the results, 80% 84% success rate,

Leaha Crawford 4:31
because not only is the housing secure, but then with the job placement, you're helping them find a job, or maybe even a career that they can even transition out of the house and get their own space, absolutely

Rodney Taylor 4:44
and that's the goal. We have people that are actually have been in our house for almost six months, and they're moving into their own apartment, nice. So we've created an environment where we they're being nurtured, and they have an opportunity to flourish. So what does nurturing. Look like. What does nurturing? Nurturing looks like? Really, you you analyzing where you are. I tell people you know where you know, we talked about last time. What

Leaha Crawford 5:07
do you want? You know, that's my that's my hot button. What do you want? Absolutely,

Rodney Taylor 5:11
you gotta take inventory. Where are you? So the thing is, they they discover exactly what they want and where they are, as far as where they where they want to be in their vision. We based on where they are, we create a step by step process to get them to their vision.

Leaha Crawford 5:25
Oh, so basically, you map out a plan for it, absolutely, step by step, step by step, right? Do you use, okay, all right, I love it. Do you find that because they are vulnerable, that sometimes is scary? Yes,

Rodney Taylor 5:37
it's the unknown, unknown to fear we've had with those a gentleman in our in one of our houses, he said, I don't trust you guys, and I appreciate him saying that. All right. He said, I don't trust you. I said, awesome. I said, just trust the process. Don't trust us. Trust the process. He is now a manager at a construction company, right? He's one of the ones that, actually, next couple of months, will be moving out into his own apartment. This gentleman is off the chain, and he is like an advocate, heavy advocate that anything is possible, right?

Leaha Crawford 6:05
So what's your motto with with the housing dream? Declare, deliver. Dream. Declare, deliver. You got a dream? Got a dream? Okay, let's dig into that dream. You gotta

Rodney Taylor 6:14
dream. You gotta have a vision. Okay. Vision takes time, okay, okay, vision and purpose kind of can line up, okay, and to discover your purpose. I always tell have individuals talk about what makes you cry. Mm, and earlier, we were talking about anger and what gets you anger? Yeah, when you see it, it makes you angry. When you see it, it brings a tear to your eye. Mm, when you discover those two things, that's where you were sent here on this planet to solve, okay, okay, that's not mine. My mentor, Ron Carpenter, I actually gave that so dream. Declare, dreamed, declare, you got to speak it out. Oh, speak it into existence. You gotta if everything that you see around us has been spoken out. Okay, so from we've been spoken out. We oh

Leaha Crawford 6:59
yeah, oh yeah. That was a hot night. Okay,

Rodney Taylor 7:03
we've been spoken out. That's correct. Everything, everything has to be spoken out. The spoken word is powerful. Got it? Okay? So if we don't speak it out, it doesn't happen. So, and I remember I used to play play this game. I don't know if you ever did this. I won't. I don't want to speak it out, because I don't want to jinx anybody. I don't want

to jinx I won't tell anybody

it happens. I won't say nothing, right? But guess what? The reason that it doesn't happen is that you haven't said

Leaha Crawford 7:31
it so. But let me ask you this, because saying anything doesn't mean you have to tell somebody No, because you can journal it. Can write it. You can write it absolutely so you can do different things. I can say it to myself. You can say it to yourself. You don't have to speak it out over the air, or, you know, you just you declare it, but get it out of you

Rodney Taylor 7:48
absolutely it's written. You'll decree a thing, and it shall be established. You'll decree a thing, and it shall be established. That's the establishment. Goes, comes from the declaration. Because I

Leaha Crawford 7:58
look at it, we are sitting in we're at UNLV in the station, and this was at one time somebody's dream. UNLV was a dream. UNLV was a dream, and now it's coming to fruition, and they've added on, because some people had vision to do different things about I mean, Las Vegas was a dream, absolutely for it to be the city that it is. So okay, dream,

Julian Rosado 8:20
declare that thing. Again, I found that, I think that was little bit glossed over. It was very, very powerful. What's that? The statement you made? Yeah, that what makes you cry. And when you saw discovering

Rodney Taylor 8:32
your purpose, discovering your purpose. Now, once again, this came from a mentor of mine said, if you're looking for something? Well, you don't have to look for it, but if something makes you angry, you see something in society that makes you angry, like this boils inside, okay? Or you see something in society that brings a tear to your eye. You're sent here to solve that problem.

Leaha Crawford 8:54
What if you cry a lot?

Overlapping Voices 8:55
Means you got a lot of problems. There's a lot of problems solved. Choose the best. I love it.

Leaha Crawford 9:02
I love it. So with this, hi. You are listening to growth and grace. I am Leah Crawford, Julian, Julian Rosado, and we have Rodney Taylor in the studio with us. And Rodney, I love that. I love that. So we, we, we did dream. Declare, declare, deliver.

Rodney Taylor 9:19
Okay, results. Oh, okay. The cool thing about emotional intelligence, emotional intelligence, I created a simple definition of it's the ability to adapt to your environment quick by shifting your way of being or your behavior to create the best result for you and everyone around. Say that again, if you lost me, it's the ability to adapt to your environment, quick ability

Leaha Crawford 9:43
to adapt to your environment, quickly by you, by you, shifting

Rodney Taylor 9:47
your behavior or your way of being, changing. You change. You shift it. You shift to create the best, to create the best result for you and everyone around you, huh? Okay, this is heavy, yes. Way of way of being is. That is powerful. Okay, there was a gentleman works at work for works force connection. He came into a room one time. And I was this, long story short, came into this room and I kid you not, everyone was attracted to this man. And I use this example all the time in our class, said for everyone to be attracted to this person, what do you think was his way of being? Everybody said, Well, he was confident. Was confident, he was focused. He was, you know, he was loving. He was, it seemed honest. And, you know, all the energetic, powerful they, they come up with all these, these, these, uh, descriptions of this person. Now, the the interesting thing is, he hadn't said a word, hadn't said a word, hadn't said a word. So all of those presents that he who he is, came went before him. So the thing is, we've been around angry people, and it's like, oh man, you're repelled by that person, right? Okay, so you could be repelled by someone, or you'd be attracted to someone, but it's their way of being, how they show up inside, creates either the positive or the negative,

Leaha Crawford 10:58
the positive word. And that's funny, because some people walk into a room, they light it up, they light it up, and some people walk into the room, they bring it down. But other people walk into the room, it's like they you can't see them. They're invisible. That's correct. I wonder if they choose to be invisible, probably

Rodney Taylor 11:11
because we can choose either one. We can choose either one. I can choose to go into a room and light it up. I could choose to go into a room and bring it down. It's up to me. It's my choice. Just by smiling, just by me saying, This is what I create. We talk about intention earlier, right? Just this is my intention. When I walk into this room, I want, I want everyone to be attracted. I want everyone to be drawn to. And guess what? If I walk in and I put that on and I walk into that room, guess what's gonna happen? Everyone's

Overlapping Voices 11:37
going to be 100% just that simple. What

Julian Rosado 11:40
was my mood when I walked in? It was probably like,

Leaha Crawford 11:47
Well, no, I mean, you just gotta you again. It's the power of presence, right? The power of presence,

Rodney Taylor 11:52
so, but the last part of it is, the part that I love is that you know you're you're creating the best result for you and everyone around you, I used to stop at creating the best result for me, and I stopped there, okay, but selfish. But what changed? But it's, it can be. The thing is, I over my over my desk. I have a re rise. I rise by lifting others up. So if I, if I solve your problem, what's gonna happen to me? Yeah, I'll be compensated, probably, because, if the problems big enough, you're gonna pay me a lot of money for hmm, right. Okay, so the thing is, my goal should not be to make money. My goal should be to solve your problem. Yeah, now I take my gifting, okay? I amplify my gifting to help you with your issue, with your problem. That's what Realtors do, right? Exactly

Julian Rosado 12:42
you saw problems. I need a house, yeah? Same thing as taught, like business schools and everywhere. 100 I

Rodney Taylor 12:48
need a house. I go to a realtor. You solve my problem, get in the house, and guess what? I do in return, pay me. I compensate you, yeah? 100% Yeah. I compensate you. I compensate you. But, but the thing is, and I'm willing to compensate you, because you just solved a problem. Yeah, I need a house right now, and you feel whole 100% Location, location, location, yeah, okay. I tell people this also, location, location, location. For us as well. We have to be in the right environment for us to flourish. My Location makes a difference. So

Leaha Crawford 13:19
let me ask you this. So when you choose in the location for the home, are, are there certain things that you look for? Yeah. When

Rodney Taylor 13:24
I choose a location for the home, I walk into the home, and what I look for in the home is, is this a place where I would want to

Julian Rosado 13:32
Yeah? So what I found out is sunlight, a lot of windows. Sunlight is the most important thing when, when, when you're living in a home. You don't want to live in a closed bar with less windows. You want to have a lot of natural light,

Rodney Taylor 13:47
100% Yeah, I walked into the house and it was dark. I mean, we're looking at houses because we're looking to expand our house space from two to 10 and and I walked into the while we walked into this house, we're like, oh, no, this is not the house. It was a beautiful house, but you're right, there was, it was dark. We're like, that's not the house. Yeah, you can't

Leaha Crawford 14:04
put lights. I mean, you can't just put

Julian Rosado 14:06
up light. No, the lights doesn't do it. The natural sunlight. Yeah, natural, natural sunlight is the most important thing. Oh, wow, yeah. Okay,

Leaha Crawford 14:14
and I guess with the natural sunlight, people are happier, yeah?

Rodney Taylor 14:18
Well, this is what I've been proven Yeah, yes, yeah, the houses that we've chosen people, they're, they're they're getting nourished. They're getting, you know, they're getting proper nourishment. They're getting proper edification. They're getting they're getting constant feedback, and then they flourish,

Leaha Crawford 14:32
and then they and that's the idea you want to get them to the point where they flourish Absolutely. But let's dig into what do you want? What do you want? Oh, you like that. You know, I do. I do like that one because, well, talk to us about it. What's the process for what do you want?

Rodney Taylor 14:45
Okay, we do almost a four or five hour process for what do you want. But I mean, long story short, most people have never stopped asked what they they usually talk about what they don't want. So I can tell you, while. If anybody did tell you, we'll use relationships. What you know woman I don't want is this, that, this, that another. But the thing is, or a woman will say, What I don't want a man, is this, that, this, that and other, it's like, okay, we're drawing to us again those words, because it doesn't it doesn't hear the No, it doesn't hear the No, doesn't hit the negative. So we're drawing to us what comes out of her mouth. So I I stress people wearing our classes, what do you want? Okay, I want to hear what you want. I don't want to hear what you don't want. Talk about what you would so that's a shift. Yes, that's a shift. A lot of people, it takes them a while to dream it, because they stop dreaming. They've given up on those dreams. Those dreams didn't come true. They didn't happen. They didn't occur. And so guess what? Internally, you may not say, speak it out, but you feel like you failed. Okay. The thing is, we teach them how to clear that stuff off. Okay? Clear process. It is a process of clearing off all the unrealized dreams. Okay, you have to go through that process, you have to say, Okay, I missed the mark here. Okay, now I get to have an opportunity to clear that thing off. Okay, Mr. Mark, what was missing that created me missing the mark? Yeah, what? What didn't I bring forth that would have hit had me hit the

Leaha Crawford 16:15
goal. But maybe that dream wasn't. Maybe you weren't dreaming big enough, and you had to go back and think about it differently, because sometimes I really know things happen, good, bad. It's all in how you view it. And what I've seen lately is sometimes you're being blocked from something because that's not and because it's not for you, you know, it's something bigger out there for you. Because I look at my situation, I would have had a job. I wouldn't have been an entrepreneur. I would have had a job working for somebody else, and I was pushed in a situation to be an entrepreneur. And this 20, almost 20 years later, right? Almost 20 years later. And, yeah, haven't had a Dave, no. Well,

Rodney Taylor 16:53
I look back in my life when I see everything that is that I thought was negative was actually worked for me.

Leaha Crawford 16:58
You just didn't see it at that time because of the mindset we were in at that time. Yes,

Rodney Taylor 17:02
all things are working for us because you get stuck in reality. Yes, all things,

Leaha Crawford 17:07
I don't even know if it's reality. I think it's your perception of reality. Yeah, yeah. And you got to ask for the lesson so that you don't have to repeat

Rodney Taylor 17:14
it, right? 100% ask for the What am What am I supposed to learn from this? That is a great question. We're constantly asking ourselves questions all the time, all day long, right? That's a great question to ask yourself. I love it, yeah. What am I supposed to learn from this? What can I get from this? How can I help somebody? How can I give out of this situation? I

Leaha Crawford 17:31
love it. All right, you're listening to growth and grace. I am. Leah Crawford, Julian Rosado, hey, and we got Rodney Taylor here, and we are sitting here talking about his transitional homes, and the process that he takes his residents through to help them, because they're in transition, and they've come, I mean, they've come to you, yes, and they're they need the help. And sometimes you don't know what you need. Yes, you don't know what you

Rodney Taylor 17:55
need. You don't know what you need. You don't we say you don't know what you don't know. Don't

Leaha Crawford 17:58
know what you don't know, but you can find out. Yes, find out. And when you find out, sometimes, after you go through the pain, it's beautiful, it's incredible. It's yeah, all right, so got the transitional housing job placement. Is there anything else about the program?

Rodney Taylor 18:11
Okay, well, we take the job, we take them to the leadership program, primarily because they're going to face issues on the job that they may never have met, never have faced. Okay, street Okay, two different cultures. Yes. Street culture, gang culture, criminal culture, different than corporate America. Okay, some things are transferable, but many things are not. So how you handle stuff

Leaha Crawford 18:35
is different, absolutely, how you handle stuff Absolutely. So you can't just go into your job and just throw everything around. No, no. Gotta handle your emotions.

Rodney Taylor 18:41
You gotta handle your emotions differently, but also you gotta carry yourself differently. It's a different environment again, walking into a different space. So I have to put on my way of being. Has to be different. I'm adapting to my environment. So I have to act after exude something differently than I would if I'm living okay? So they're taught that they're taught how to shift their behavior quick. Okay, I mean, it there's a process of doing that. It's a fun process to watch, but we always say we watch them on day one, and then we watch them when they graduate on day three. And it's, I mean, it's like they've, they've had a facelift. So

Leaha Crawford 19:16
what about after they get Okay, so that's with the program. And then they get into the houses. Do you teach them time management? Because time management is huge.

Rodney Taylor 19:23
Time management, absolutely, we teach the time management. We teach them what results from them not adhering to time, what it looks like, and we teach them how to clear that off. Oh, because a lot of times we fall short. A lot of times we're late to prevent our real lives. Absolutely. The thing is, if we start, we start teaching discipline in every area of your life. You don't have to, you don't have to do it all at once. Again, we talk making your bed, yes, getting up, making your bed. That's a discipline, if you do that every single day. And now you attach another discipline to that, and another discipline to that, and that and that, and before you know it, you have a hopeful full day. Discipline, right?

Leaha Crawford 20:00
And it takes time and give yourselves. Yes,

Rodney Taylor 20:04
don't be hard on yourself. I mean, a lot of times when we miss the mark, we beat ourselves up. So

Leaha Crawford 20:10
I can tell you, because, you know, I use my son as the example myself in the butt. Well, no, I use my son as the example because he knows I'm a stickler for making your bed up before you leave the house. That's one of my peppies. Make your bed up, clean your room up before you leave the house. So he we have blankets on top of that. We have blankets on top of our beds. So he doesn't get into bed anymore. He just sleeps under the blanket. And so all he has to do is fold, fold the blanket up and fix the pillows. And I said, that's your solution. Every once in a while he'll climb in the bed, but he's like, No, because I don't want to hear your mouth. You yelling, telling me that I need to clean my room up. And I just, I just giggle, but I watch, you know he came up with his solution. Okay, I don't like you to yell at me. I know you want the room clean. I don't feel like making the bed, so I'm just going to pull the cover on top of me. He created a different result, different result. Again, rooms clean. I didn't have to make the bed up. Everybody's happy.

Rodney Taylor 21:05
Well, this is the cool thing about results. It keeps you out of denial. It keeps you out of either you did it or you didn't, and that

Julian Rosado 21:12
doesn't matter how you got there. Well, it's

Leaha Crawford 21:13
funny you say that, because when you think about when you grew up like, I know, I grew up in a household where you couldn't have dishes in the sink. My mother was a no dishes in the single same year, no dish. Well, we grew up in the same we came from the same No, same people, and I used to get I purposely leave dishes in my sink now, because I couldn't, I couldn't they're clean, but I just leave them in the sink, like

Rodney Taylor 21:37
I got over, like, right now it's

Leaha Crawford 21:38
a pot in there. Aha. Y'all can't say anything. You can't say anything, but I do when my house and you can tell when I'm going through something, my house is not clean, absolutely, house is not clean. Oh, when

Rodney Taylor 21:49
I'm going through something, I'm unshaven, unshave, I don't match. Yeah,

Leaha Crawford 21:53
oh yeah. You can tell 100% and then, you know, it's everything. Everything's out of order. Everything is out of order. But putting things back in order is the process for you to put things back in order. 100% I love it. What about you, Julian, what do you what do you see with you when you're out of whack? First of

Julian Rosado 22:11
all, I'm groomed, because I always like to keep my my hair, my hair, hair pretty cut. So when things get really hectic, my hair is not cut, and then it seeps down from there, because I was always taught I'm per your to Anytime you walk out in public, you have to be presentable, even then you go to the grocery store or her anywhere,

Overlapping Voices 22:33
yeah, you know, I fight that too. Yeah, we grew up with the same people. Yeah, it has

Julian Rosado 22:37
to be presentable. Have to be presentable, yeah, and you don't walk out with pajamas on, no, nothing. You have to be presentable and like whenever times, you know, I'm in that mood or whatever, like and I cross a mirror, I'm like, you know, this is not a presentable No.

Leaha Crawford 22:55
What's so funny is because me and my son go through that too, because he would ask me, Mom, can I wear the pajama pants? You know you know you can't wear those pajama pants. You know you can't wear those up. That's, that's right, you but, but what do you but again, it's, it is, how much time, like, he spends a lot of time grooming. Because, you know, with little boys, and I would sit there, and I would be like, okay, so they don't, they don't like to take back to what? And then he started liking girls, and I can't keep them out the bathroom. And I'm like, oh, and someone told me that they were like, as they get older, when they start liking girls, they'll start grooming them, you know, they'll start doing different things as we I'm like, okay, get the Cologne. Oh, yeah. We're not even talking about the cologne that we bought in December, and it's almost gone. I'm like, I would hide what you spraying? Who you

Julian Rosado 23:39
spraying? Probably mixing them,

Leaha Crawford 23:44
but again, and being very conscious about his mindset too, like, what are you thinking about digging in and asking them the questions and letting them talk?

Rodney Taylor 23:53
100 asking questions is huge, and that and that goes into mentoring. Okay? I mean, the huge part of mentoring is asking questions. That's something that's done at all of our transition got

Leaha Crawford 24:04
it. And a lot of a lot of grown people don't feel like they need mentors. And we do absolutely. We all do. We all do.

Rodney Taylor 24:10
Everyone has a mentor, right? Every everyone that has achieved something of substantial had a mentor, had a mentor, yeah? And had to be willing to and they're probably mentoring someone else also.

Julian Rosado 24:22
My mentor said you need multiple mentors. Just don't need one. Yeah. Need good

Leaha Crawford 24:27
people around you. Need good people around you.

Rodney Taylor 24:29
Well, there are a lot of domains of life, and there are people that are that excel in different domains, right? It's difficult to find someone who excels in all the domains of

Leaha Crawford 24:38
life. Got it so let me ask you this, because we have to close. If there was one message that you would leave, everyone to start, you know, because we don't start again. If we know New Year's resolutions probably made them didn't keep them, how would somebody start again? Just, just one key thing to start again. Start, do one thing. Just do one thing. Do one thing. So we're going to do one thing in March. Y'all, we going to do one thing in March, one thing we're not going to make a. This, no, just one thing.
