  • Everyone Wants 7 Figures… But What Does it Take For You to Get There? | Mel Yu | Ep 48

    Everyone Wants 7 Figures… But What Does it Take For You to Get There? | Mel Yu | Ep 48
    Dec 4 2025

    I crossed the million-dollar mark this calendar year in 2025. It didn’t look how I pictured it. It felt real, steady, and earned.

    In this ep, I chat with you guys on the 5 things I believe worked for me that got me over the line. Also.... nothing really changes because it's about profit at the end of the day and not just revenue!

    Crossing seven figures didn’t change who I am. It just showed me what mattered. But I am putting my head down and focusing on the next level of impact.

    Listen to this if you're also building and thinking BIG for your business and goals.

    Love you guys lots,

    Mellie x
