"Before founding TRUSTY OAK, I spent five years at a<br />
rapidly growing digital agency based in Austin, TX. Four of<br />
those years, I was responsible for hiring and leading both<br />
local and virtual teams while working closely with clients<br />
ranging from CEOs to bestselling authors to build their<br />
brand online.<br />
Through my leadership of these teams and in working with<br />
highperforming individuals across the country, I recognized<br />
the need for consistent, quality executive assistant services<br />
for these busy professionals, and could understand firsthand<br />
the challenges of selecting and hiring the right person for the<br />
job.<br />
The driving passion behind Trusty Oak’s mission to support<br />
ambitious people in pursuit of big dreams is personal.<br />
Success is not something that comes easy, but opportunities<br />
to grab onto success happen a lot more frequently when you<br />
have the right people in your corner. I have been blessed<br />
with many mentors and leaders who have helped me see my<br />
own potential and who have given me opportunities that I<br />
would have not been able to grab onto without their help.<br />
We all need a hand, and my goal with everything we do at<br />
Trusty Oak is to do just that – connect both our clients and<br />
our assistants with opportunities to reach their full potential<br />
every day."<br />

A
created Bee Happi after discovering<br />
Maribel<br />
the process to become happy was simple,<br />
that<br />
not easy. After struggling through some<br />
but<br />
of unhappiness, Maribel learned how to<br />
periods<br />
states of happiness through coaching,<br />
create<br />
meditation, and neuro-linguistic<br />
journaling,<br />
Maribel was deeply inspired by<br />
programming.<br />
great influencers like Mihaly<br />

HAD A SIX-YEAR-OLD LITTLE BOY AND BABY ON THE WAY. THE<br />
WE<br />
FLEW BY PRETTY QUICKLY (AT LEAST, NOW IT FEELS THAT<br />
TIME<br />
THAT YEAR, I DISCOVERED LOTS OF THINGS ABOUT LIFE,<br />
WAY).<br />
PATIENCE, HOPE, AND FORGIVENESS.<br />
LOVE,<br />
BIGGEST THING I LEARNED WAS HOW TO LISTEN TO MY<br />
THE<br />
THAT SOUNDS PRETTY SIMPLE, BUT IT IS TRULY<br />
BREATH.<br />
AND IT CHANGED MY WHOLE LIFE! MY WORLD WAS SO<br />
PROFOUND<br />
WAS FAMILY, WORK, LIFE, AND NO BALANCE. I WAS GOING,<br />
NOISY<br />
GOING, AND NEVER GOT ANYWHERE. THE MOMENTS WERE<br />
GOING,<br />
ME BY AND I WAS MISSING THEM ALL.<br />
PASSING<br />
BEGAN PRACTICING MEDITATION AND JOURNALING, WHICH<br />
I<br />
UP A PANDORA’S BOX OF ALL SORTS OF EMOTIONS,<br />
OPENED<br />
CREATIVITY, AND NEW ENERGY. IT WAS LIKE I WAS A<br />
FEELINGS,<br />
NEW PERSON. NOW THIS DIDN’T HAPPEN OVERNIGHT, IT<br />
WHOLE<br />
DEFINITELY A SLOW GRADUAL PROCESS. THE MORE I<br />
WAS<br />
THE MORE I WAS IN TUNE WITH THE REAL ME, WHO<br />
PRACTICED,<br />
NEW ME DECIDED TO QUIT MY EXISTING JOB AND FOLLOW MY<br />
THE<br />
AT THE TIME I WASN’T CLEAR ABOUT MY PATH, I JUST<br />
PASSIONS.<br />
I WANTED TO CHANGE. I USED MEDITATION AND<br />
KNEW<br />
TO GIVE ME ANSWERS ABOUT MY DIRECTION AND<br />
JOURNALING<br />
WHAT I REALLY WANTED TO DO WAS START MY OWN<br />
DISCOVERED<br />
SO THAT’S WHAT I DID!<br />
BUSINESS.<br />
A BUSINESS WAS LIKE CLIMBING A MOUNTAIN<br />
STARTING<br />
IT WAS SO FREAKING HARD! MANY DAYS I THOUGHT<br />
BLINDFOLDED.<br />
MYSELF, “IS THIS REALLY WHAT I AM SUPPOSED TO BE DOING?”<br />
TO<br />
ANSWER WAS ALWAYS “HELL YEAH!” SO I KEPT GOING,<br />
THE<br />
LEARNING, FAILING, AND GETTING BACK UP.<br />

Exclusive interview with<br />
A Happiness Coach
NEXT WEEK, MY HUSBAND DISCOVERED A HUGE<br />
THE<br />
OF BEES ON OUR ROOF! AND I MEAN HUGE,<br />
SWARM<br />
7,000 PLUS BEES INSIDE THE EXTERIOR OF MY<br />
LIKE<br />
WE CALLED THIS BEE EXPERT TO COME GET<br />
HOUSE.<br />
OUT AND PUT THEM IN BETTER PLACE!<br />
THEM<br />
THE BEES HAD BEEN THERE SINCE JUNE<br />
APPARENTLY,<br />
IT WAS ALREADY OCTOBER! THERE WERE SEVEN<br />
AND<br />
HONEYCOMBS IN MY HOUSE AND WE NEVER<br />
HUGE<br />
ABOUT IT! TALK ABOUT A LIVING METAPHOR! I<br />
KNEW<br />
THE BEE EXPERT, “HOW CAN YOU ENSURE THAT<br />
ASKED<br />
BEES ARE REALLY GONE”. HE SAID, “I REMOVED<br />
THE<br />
QUEEN AND THE OTHER BEES CAN’T SURVIVE<br />
THE<br />
THAT MOMENT, A LIGHT BULB WENT OFF! THINGS<br />
AT<br />
STARTING TO COME TOGETHER. THE PLAY ON<br />
WERE<br />
WITH THE “BEE HAPPI” CAME BEFORE WE<br />
WORDS<br />
THE BEES IN OUR HOUSE. I FELT LIKE THIS<br />
DISCOVERED<br />
A SIGN FROM THE UNIVERSE. SO I ASKED MYSELF<br />
WAS<br />
CAN WE LEARN FROM THE QUEEN BEE?” FIRST<br />
“WHAT<br />
ALL, THE QUEEN BEE HAS A HUGE RESPONSIBLY TO<br />
OF<br />
COMMUNITY, WITHOUT HER, THERE IS “NO THEM!”<br />
HER<br />
MEANS THAT SHE HAS TO MAINTAIN HER HEALTH<br />
THIS<br />
WELL-BEING. HOW DOES SHE DO THAT?<br />
AND<br />
ASKS FOR HELP! AND THE COMMUNITY HELPS HER, NO<br />
SHE<br />
ASKED! WOW, WHAT A CONCEPT (IN MY<br />
QUESTIONS<br />
BUT HAPPI TONE)! IT’S LIKE THEY TELL YOU ON<br />
SARCASTIC,<br />
AIRPLANE, “PUT YOUR MASK ON FIRST, THEN YOU CAN<br />
AN<br />
WANTED TO MODEL THE QUEEN BEE CONCEPT AND<br />
I<br />
A COMMUNITY WHERE PEOPLE COULD GIVE AND<br />
CREATE<br />
FROM EACH OTHER, NO QUESTIONS ASKED. A<br />
RECEIVE<br />
WHERE HAPPINESS IS NOT ABOUT BEING “SELFISH”,<br />
PLACE<br />
ABOUT BEING ALIVE! THAT’S WHY WE PUT AN “I”<br />
IT’S<br />
OF A “Y” IN HAPPINESS, BECAUSE IT’S OKAY IF “I”<br />
INSTEAD<br />
TO BE HAPPY, AND IT DOESN’T MATTER “WHY”!<br />
WANT<br />
THE STORY BEHIND “BEE HAPPI” AND THE REST IS<br />

Godin has been one of my biggest influences. When I first left school at 16, I started reading his blog, and he put<br />

words a lot of the things I believe in, but didn't know how to express. A couple of months later, I decided to send<br />

What I wrote in that email eventually became my first blog post, and that's how I got started. I've since done a<br />

internship with Seth, and was in the inaugural class of his altMBA program.<br />
