Episode #160: Why NOT you? with MeiLani Hock
MeiLani is the mother of 5 beautiful kids under 11.
When MeiLani’s 2 year old son was diagnosed with brain cancer in 2014, it was the wake up call she needed in life. She realized it was time to stop making excuses of all the reasons she couldn't do things, and instead just start doing. Instead of focusing on the "Why Me?" situations she chose to capitalize on the "Why NOT Me?" attitude.
She jumped into her lifelong dream of real estate investing in flipping houses. After years of watching AirBnB's growth and wanting a piece of the action, she acted on her "Why NOT Me?" mantra and opened her first 4 AirBnBs within the next 4 months. She continues to open and close Airbnb, using her properties or others.
Since 2013, MeiLani has been flipping homes, building new construction, buying short and long term rentals, and much more. Her passion is helping women use their time effectively to utilize their talents in adding to the families’ finances without sacrifices their life as a mom.
TAKEAWAYS:
MeiLani’s super power in her business is absolute 100% authenticity accountable to her friends and colleagues.
One of MeiLani’s most favorite things around her business is how involved her kids are in her business. She really enjoys having her kids know what her business does and have an opinion and some input in it.
When her 2 year old son was diagnosed with brain cancer, MeiLani jumped full force into her business, starting it while her son was undergoing life-saving treatments. She decided that she wasn’t able to sit around and wait until things were perfect to start the business she had been thinking of for YEARS. Instead of focusing on the negative and saying “Why me?” her mantra became “Why NOT me?”.
MeiLani’s business is truly built around her family and her goal with everything is to spend as much time with them as possible. She has tried out multiple different business models and ways of working within the real estate field, and has landed on AirBnb’s as a way to be an amazing host, fill her creative cup, and make significant income consistently.
