Struggling with Success
Angus has spoken at headquarters for Coca-Cola, Adobe and Wal-Mart. He’s been incredibly successful but it’s not something he is comfortable with. Growing up in the Midwest, there was always a negative connotation that went along with dropping names and flaunting success.
This false pride has taken him over 40 years to overcome. It was no longer something that puffed him up. Instead, it gave him credibility with others that he is opening up a doorway to your head and to your heart for him to speak of something with depth, quality and quantity.
Angus Nelson – Life Expectations Journey
Angus began at bible college with a degree in youth ministry. In his late 20’s he moved into non-profits. By his early 30’s, he was in the constant struggle to keep his non-profit afloat. He was working 60-70-80 hour work weeks. The stress caused rifts within his marriage. Angus turned to alcohol, pornography and other sexual encounters.

Angus loses everything and is broken. For three years Angus struggled until he discovered grace.
Life Moving Forward
Angus relocated to Alabama and enrolled in school. Angus began to experience healing and wholeness within himself. He discovered that so much of what he had done was based upon self sabotage.
Angus Nelson was challenged by his wife to write a book. He wrote about his dark times and everything that he learned along the way.
Publishers didn’t want his book. Angus self-published and through necessity learned about marketing. This put him in the world of social marketing which led him to his current path.

About Jaime Jay
Meet Jaime Jay – a man who wears many hats, and wears them all admirably. He's a master connector, an entrepreneur extraordinaire, and a published author who knows how to get things done.
Before he found his way to the business world, Jaime served his country as a brave paratrooper in the U.S. Army. But that's just the beginning of his many accomplishments.
He's the founder of the renowned Bottleneck Distant Assistant Services firm, and his book "Quit Repeating Yourself" has become a must-read for entrepreneurs everywhere.
When he's not busy building his empire, you can find him on his beloved Harley Davidson, cruising through the countryside and taking in the invigorating effects of Uitwaaien – a Dutch practice that involves facing the wind to boost health and relieve stress.
He enjoys spending his free time outside building stuff with his wife, Nikita the dog and their two kittens (for now at least) Tommy and Tater.
He is ‘over-the-moon’ happily married to his wonderful wife Sara, his amazing daughter, Jessica, who is serving our country as a United States Army soldier. Jaime and Sara are the proud grand parents of two beautiful little girls.
