Welcome back to the Fuel Your Legacy podcast. Each week, we expose the faulty foundational mindsets of the past and rebuild the newer, stronger foundation essential in creating your meaningful legacy. We've got a lot of work to do. So let's get started. As much as you like this podcast, I'm certain that you're going to love the book that I just released on Amazon, Fuel Your Legacy, The 9 Pillars to Build a Meaningful Legacy. I wrote this book to help you have the same experience that I had while identifying my identity.
Today we have a guest from the land down under haven't made it there yet at my travels. I will one day it's just a daunting flight almost 16 hours on the west coast of the United States down to Australia, but haven't quite committed there yet.
But our guest is known as the greatness engineer. She's written a book called The Great stepping into your greatness, the 12 rules of building an outstanding life. Pursue Important on how to do that she's rebranded something called dare now, you're from America dare is a drug program type thing, trying to get people not to do drugs. But she has her brand to dare. And I'm excited for her to share that with you and see how we might implement that into our lives. So I'm gonna pass it over to you Mireille, just go ahead and give us a little bit more, a little more of your backstory. What got you into stepping into your greatness?
I'm excited to be on your show. As you said, my name is Mireille Toulekima born in Australia and I'm excited to share my story with you know, calling America and I hope it's going to be inspiring for them. I have a background in engineering formation. I am an engineer in the oil and gas industry. And there's a bit of story behind all of this because I studied in France. And you know, coming from a family of a very humble family, not a lot of money. So my parents paid a lot of money for me to go and study in France and my dad was the breadwinner at that time. But he passed away, he got sick, he passed away when I was just finishing my passion. And so all angles were not trained in my right so because of the death of my dad, I have to go back to Gabon, and I'm originally from Gabon, in West Africa. So I had to go back and stay with my mom and my sibling, but I didn't have any money. So I had to look for a job to Take your myself and also have my mom at that time. So I look for a job in a different industry. And at that time, one of the major companies in the oil and gas was looking for local talent in the oil and gas and distributors dealing guarantee she was picking up back then in Gabon, in West Africa where I was from. So I just, you know, took a chance and when to eat some an interview, and this interview was successful. So that's how I started my global journey because the company was a global player. I worked, you know, for some time in Gabon, and then it gives, you know, giving me a lot of opportunities to start to step up and become you know, a good A person, but in the oil and gas industry, so I had a very,
very good and international career, worked in Africa, work in Europe, work in Australia and working on the issue, Asia as well. So it was really good, a good and excellent You know, I've been able to step up different roles, but I saw when something was missing and so I
mean, it was not an easy road for me in this area because
as you can imagine, the oil and gas industry back then was very male-dominated and very Caucasian dominated. So I had to find my way and it can with a lot of upset called bruises. And so I had to step up and find a way because it was not going to be I was not going to be able to make it following the traditional way, so I had to find a way to get to the top. And that's actually what I did. It was scary. I didn't know where to start, but I managed to sit down and think about a strategy and also talk to different people, especially men, in this case, you know how to navigate this industry and, and managed to go somewhere where I did because, at some point, I got stuck in, you know, middle corporate management and I couldn't actually,
you know, evolve.
What I did and that was after I went to an event Cool successes success event where there was this gentleman called Roman era is a Canadian, where he was telling his story, being an engineer in a nuclear engineer, and how to change his life and how to have a breakthrough. So I took, you know, I listen and
after the event, I went back to,
to him, and asking him about how to, you know, to write a book and if he had some, you know, capacity to down and so, it started like that. So I finally decided to write a book but in this case of a book in the oil and gas industry now was So the book is called it's it's more developed countries, which was it's called local content and local content in emerging and developing countries. So this creates a platform for me. So I started to get invited to forums to conferences as an expert, which was quite you know, I was quite, you know, excited about it because I was so stuck in Melbourne cooperate, you know, that I didn't see that I was going to have a week. So that was grateful for me. So I started to evolve I started to, to get to those, you know, very important forums and in the industry, globally. And That's when I realized that I had something more to offer. I couldn't get stuck in corporate anymore because being incorporate was limiting myself. I was living somebody else values, I was reading somebody else's dream. So I decided to capitalize on this new platform that I've created for myself. And in 2016, and that was also a time where the industry beat, depress and things we become a ninja to start my engine. And that's, that's led to the first writing, stepping into your greatness and that's, that's the route that you mentioned before. So I would sit into your greatness 12 rules for building an outstanding life. And this book is I mean, it's a very slow condensed
and in this will describe, you know, the,
the different rules or different teams that I think I've found me through this process that I've just described, through my life, my professional life, my professional life, for my social life. And, and I wanted to share it with the world and tell them this is what I did. These are the tips that I've used. And, and that's that that was the foundation of what I've been able to accomplish so far. Since I've started wherever I started. So it's a book that I know
it's
Because I've been writing, you know, technical book, it's a book that actually, you know, that I love. Because it helped me to reflect on everything that I've done because a lot of the things that I've done, I didn't realize that I was following your process. So I felt like it was really powerful for me to reflect on all of this and write it down for other people to be able to, to get this goal is to get this, you know, this process so that they don't have to start from scratch. Especially I mean, for a lot of people, especially minorities or minority environment. It's, it's so it's very, it's very difficult. So it's important for people like us managed to navigate some difficult experiences some shed so that we can help people. I mean, to thrive as well. And that's one of my mission when I started my new venture and became a greatness engineer was to spend, you know, to make sure that people become the best that it can be wherever they are, wherever they leave. I want them to realize that they're not limited. There might be obstacles, there might be a lot of you know, things that come against them, but they always have to realize that at the end of the day, you know, they have some greatness inside of them. And they need to realize that and they are able like everybody, like me like anybody to be able to build, you know, this outstanding life that they want. But it all starts with them, whatever is against them, it will start with them, they are greatness engineers. And they need to, you know, to, to be able to, to know that and to be able to share whatever greatness they have with the world. So it's been a very, very inspiring even myself. I mean, I didn't realize that I was going to be able to do all of this. So the book, you know, was published in 2016. And from the book I've created the rewrite to Mr. global leadership of the organization which mission is to make to make sure that people engineer greatness wherever they have and then they deliver they become the best they can be. So that's the mission of this organization that I created back, in 2017. One year after the book was published, and through this process, I developed as well, their system they're standing for, decide,
act, review, and expense. So it's a cycle. It's starting with you deciding what you want to do, and being clear and intentional about what you want to do. And then obviously, and then you can have all those supplies and, and nice tool if you don't add them, nothing is happening. So the next step is really to take action. And we go through the process of, you know, putting some action plan that you need to you need to have, get to the point where you want to get, and when you're taking action of your car, you know, milestone that you have to, to, to to put you know, and and at each milestone with you where you are and you know your contract to, to to to what you want to do. And then you keep moving like that keep reviewing I just have seen and you expand it because, at the end of the day, you know through action you sometimes fail you it's not going according to your plan. So you learn you learn from those failures and it helps you to expand and Endian success. tension is also an image of going from your comfort zone to outside your comfort zone. So you expand constantly, recycle, never stop. And that's, that's what this system is all about is just to show that you are not limited there, there's a process to follow the process doesn't have any, you know, it doesn't end. So you have to keep going. You have to keep learning. You have to keep pushing your boundaries. And that's how you become you know, unlimited. That's how you and you step into your greatness. That's how you start to influence the world. And that's how you become, you leave a legacy that's going to, you know, to run on you, you turn your life. So that's, you know, that's in a nutshell what you know, stepping into your greatness is and how I came up to write this book and to you know, now use this the basis of the book, to create tools and processes for other people to start to, to, to, to capitalize also on my work on my story on my journey. And right now we, you know, expanding you know, the different programs as well, so that there is going to be the basis of a coaching program. And then there's going to be mastermind as well, where physically I'm gonna, you know, start to teach, you know, those rules and then use the
system to do that. So it's been, it's been an incredible journey and again, this stepping into your greatness also Opens so many doors. I use it now, especially with a lot of women came up to me and wanted to know a little bit more about it. So I use it to mentor coach women. I know, I've been able to win two different platforms live and online as well talk about the program to talk about the group. And it opened, you know, a lot of global avenue for me and so my network is just much just exploded, following all of this. So it's, it's really for me, you know, the message for me is when I look at, you know, my humble beginnings because you know, I live in Australia never thought in my life that I was going to make it in Australia at all. I didn't even know Know what Australia was all about, through pushing myself pushing boundaries and, and, and learning and taking action. It led me to this beautiful country that I love now. And, and so the message is, you know, don't ever underestimate yourself. I mean, you might be in a corner, but you don't have to say in this corner in this box you always have that there's always a door for you. And you always have to push to find this door because sometimes, isn't it? I mean, and most of the time it's not coming. The door is not just opening by itself. You have to walk through the door and open it because otherwise, you know, nobody's gonna do it for you. And yes, you know, You're not going to do it alone. But it starts with you is start with your motivation, your determination, your vision, to be able to, you know, move forward. And, and, and, you know, maneuver and go through, you know, your journey. And this journey is not linear but at least when you're focused on your mission and you know, that you have the potential you have the greatness inside of you will always go forward. And that's, that's the message that I'm, you know, I'm pushing, I started a show as well. To bring you know, people will have a story so that I can they can inspire other people to, to step into their greatness and to you know, and to, to thrive, wherever they are, whatever the obstacle that they have to go through so it's a whole process, and it starts with the mind. And that's, you know, through all those platforms that I have, is doing mindset work to two people that I interact with, to make sure that they know that they can become the best that they can be and don't have to look at what people are saying about them. Because whatever people are saying, It's none of their business, none of their business, they just have to be focused on what they want to accomplish the mission that they've set for themselves, be very clear about it, and have an action plan to move forward
and accomplish that goal. Yeah, I completely agree. I love that. So what I'm going to do now is I'm going to kind of dig into this story because I love them I've got lots of notes here. Kind of some of the key pivotal moments that I want to pull out so that I feel your legacy audience can start to apply these things in their life, these principles are applicable out if you are listening to this. Maybe you have to slow down so you get the what's the word? For accents pretty thick. I guess that's the best way, is it? accents pretty thick, slow it down, make sure you catch all the word because it is the things that she's sharing are spot on. I want to make sure that everybody can kind of pull these out. So one is her parents chose to sacrifice for her education. Now, sometimes that's going to be you as a parent sacrificing your kids' education. Sometimes that's your sacrificing for your education. But what are you willing to give to make sure that you get an education now, it doesn't always have to be higher education. college or bachelor's degree or anything like that. It can be anything. It can be working with a coach it can be working with Mary. I mean, it could be anything like what are you sacrificing to, to really put forth the effort and get and take, take the next step up and there's always going to be obstacles as she said, there's your just because life is hard, doesn't mean that it's not worth it. And being willing to face those obstacles is essential. And how she faced the obstacles is important. She said she worked in a man dominated the industry and Caucasian dominated industry. And rather than giving up and saying, well, this just isn't for me. She went asked the people who knew how to work the system, what to do. She went and got coach, she went to training, training seminars, things like that by people who knew how to succeed and by doing that, she was exposed to people who could help her succeed. So success has nothing to do with your, the color of your skin, gender, how tall you are, how short you are, how wide you are, how thin you are, doesn't matter. What matters is are you willing to focus as she mentioned, and stay focused on one goal and one outcome. And then also at that take all the opportunities that come your way.
So she had to be willing to take
up, like take opportunities to travel internationally, take jobs that sent her internationally, are away from her family far away from her home. Because that's what she wanted to do and who she wanted to become. And so that's one important thing. Then the other thing is writing a book. If you have not considered writing a book about your life, do it. It's worth it. Even if not very few people read it. I'll be so you want people to read it. But if you're in your story can change one person's life that it was worth sharing. And, and that's one thing that I just wanted to pull out of this. And because she did her acronym, she decided that she was going to go to the top of her industry. So she decided she took action, she found the information she needed. Then she reflected on it. And during her reflection, she journaled about it, she wrote down what was going on and how she got to where she was. And then she chose to expand by sharing that book and what that did for my writing that book. She now got on public speaking, she got a lot more speaking opportunities and a lot more coaching opportunities because she was willing to take every opportunity that came, and she's constantly applying this acronym in her life. And so what would it do if you applied the acronym in your life so it's decided, take action, reflect and then expand On your reflection, what could What more could you do to accomplish your goals? And I love that. So I'm curious, Mary, during this process everybody who becomes successful at one point in their life has to deal with naysayers. How did you go about dealing with naysayers? And how did you What did you do to silence him in your mind? and say, Look, I'm focused on my goal. I'm not gonna let somebody distract me.
And you're right. I mean, we're all the way and I mean, it started well at the beginning of my carrier, because when I joined this company, because I went to graduate back, and I started in the morning gas industry. And I was, I was working for an English speaking company. And, and at that time, I didn't see English so I was supposed to, you know, go to work, and, you know, and understand what was going on and I couldn't. And it stopped two people started to judge me because they for them because I couldn't speak English. I was up to the task. And a lot of my colleagues back then were coming from some of the most, you know, a prestigious university in, in the US in the UK, in Prague. And I was coming from a very small school and university in the western part of France because that's what my parents could afford.
So it was,
you know, I had a lot of doubts. I haven't had a lot of conflicts, and some of the projects were run and there was a lot associated because They felt that I couldn't have value. So I had to, you know, I was first very discouraged and wanted to, you know, to give her but I think because of the hardship because I needed to the money and I needed to succeed. I had to change my mindset. So I did I changed my mindset. I said, Okay, I have to
focus on
something positive, because I need to thrive in this industry. So, you know, and I talked to myself this day, there's no coincidence. If you are here, you are here in this organization, you are among those people. It means that you have value. So you have to make sure that this value transpires and makes every single effort to move forward and to be able to be associated with those projects to be able to become somebody else value. So it's a mind You know, it's a mind game. I can say like that it's a minute, it's really about how you, you know, set up your mind. And once you focus on because when you know when I came in, I was focusing on my weakness, which was I couldn't speak English and so I was really in a negative
power as soon as I started to change and say, Okay,
I'm here for a reason. So I should be very positive about it and start learning. And that's what I did. I started to learn I started to ask to get some English lessons to be able to improve. I was really speaking, improve my English and there was also So I reached out to another woman, an American woman who was in the industry for quite some time. And she accepted to mentor me. And it did the right you know, the right basis. And, and I, you know, I was able to start to grow in this industry. So two things when you have naysayers don't listen to them and try to focus on the opportunity because, in the worst situation, there's always an opportunity. So when you have those naysayers, don't listen to them and
sit down and ask yourself
where is the opportunity in whatever I'm doing right now? And, and focus on reaching out to people who can help you, to grow this opportunity?
Yeah, totally. I love that. So Many people focus on their weaknesses, and they have what's called imposter syndrome. And so many people struggle with that I've struggled with it in the past, I think it's a natural thing to struggle with it. But she flipped the script and said, instead of saying, Well, why am I here? And thinking that of all for weaknesses, she asked herself an important question that I think everybody listening to this should ask themselves. And that is, what do my employers see in me? Like, why? Why did they choose to hire me? If they're hiring me that obviously, they believe in me to a point they believe that I can add value here. So what is that value that I need to be adding? And, and that's a huge, huge question. I think just that question alone, if you're still working for the man, if you're still grinding it out, 595 whatever it is, working for somebody else. What could change in your life? If you started to think about why are they paying what they're paying you? Why did they choose to hire me what value Did they see in me that they wanted to be working for them? And once you can identify that, then you know exactly what you can market out the, on the international or national or international marketplace. And, and that is how she became the greatness expert. She recognized that there were things that she had talents and gifts that she had, that were employable, even when she didn't speak the language. Well, if that's the case, and she can use those all across the world, regardless of what language you speak, and that's a huge gift to be able to recognize that and ask yourself that question. What does my employer seeing me? So I'm curious, Mary, what do you what would you say if you had to focus on like one specific habit, mindset or behavior that you've adopted in your life to create your legacy? What would that be and how could we adopted in our lives
the main
for me, it is to Look for positivity always. I mean, there's so much I mean, there's so much negativity that and it's been a survival tool for me to say, okay, where is the positive I want to be, you know, surrounded by positive people, people Dragnea. People can, you know, help me to grow as a person as a professional and intentionally, you know, get away from the negative people, the naysayer, people always complain. People always have, you know, something negative to say even when there's no problem. So that's been a very, very big one for me. And just to give you an example, as I said, I was working in a very male-dominated environment and occasion dominated environment. I could myself you know, I'm not going to make it so the way it was being you know a black woman actually have an advantage because whatever I'm going to do and especially if I deliver some very good results even if it's an average result but actually bring value and people are going to remember me because I mean they can miss me but your growth and then because they look like they can come in and nobody will actually remember them they will be confused and say okay, who was this guy again and we will end and it actually happened each time I was standing up and then you know, running a project or presenting something people will remember me maybe not by my name but by the Color My Skin and my agenda because it was so rare to have women At that time, and later on a retirement, so it was actually playing in for me in the sense. When I started to flip into this mindset, things started to become positive and good. So being a black woman in a male, the Caucasian male-dominated environment was an asset for me. And that's how I to I started to capitalize on that. And I could, you know, have, you know, men mentor coming to me and say, Oh, we want to work with you. And we want to help you to navigate the process because we realize it's not hard but to bring good value. So when you start to bring value, and when you start to, to temper, people recognize this value, and they don't look at anything else anymore. So that's a thing that's the thing. The second thing that I want to say, is always deliver more than you are asked for. And whatever happened because you bring value, people can't ignore them, they will always want to be around you, they will always want to work with you. And they will always want to help you when you reach out to them.
Yeah, totally. That is probably one of the biggest things that I've learned over the last two, three years is stop thinking about what can I get out of a situation and start thinking about what can I add to the situation? What value can I bring to these mentors are these people around me? And if you start adding enough value, I don't care where you're from or what you're doing. If you are intentionally adding value to the people around you. They will eventually say, Man, this person's given a lot. How can I help them progress? How can I help them get a leg up? Everybody wants that. And so if you're struggling like man, I just don't know how to Get get into this industry, even if it's like, I had one, one client who she was a waitress, she worked in two or three jobs away. One of them was a waitress, and she was going to school. And she didn't know what she wanted to do. But there was a wealthy, wealthy person who kept coming in and he was doing real estate investing. And he's like, well, it's 10 grand for me to train, you shouldn't have 10 grand. But after a week of thinking about it, she said, Look, I don't, I can't pay you at all right? But can I just drive you around? And I do your lot. I thought whatever I will, I will be your, your assistant, just so I can be around you and learn the things you're learning right? add value. And that turned into a multimillion-dollar relationship for her because she was willing to start with right up just serving and adding as much value as she can. And so that's something that I mean, that's a huge, huge thing and then also what is unique to you That gives you a leg up. And what's an asset to you that maybe not everybody around you have maybe it's something that happened in your childhood, maybe it's the way you look, maybe it's the way you dress, maybe it's the way that you interact with people. Maybe it's a knowledge that maybe it's a skill set, maybe it's that you're a mom, or a dad or whatever it is, what gives you a leg up on the rest of the competition in your desired field. And that's, that's a huge question to be asking yourself. Always. So I'm curious if we wanted to get in touch with you about your, your greatness, like stepping into your greatness and have you come speak to us or even just online courses or whatever it is mastermind, how would we get in touch with you where's the best place to connect to you around the world?
So the best place to connect with me is actually on social media. So I'm on Facebook under my right to live Kima on LinkedIn, so LinkedIn is one Hi, LinkedIn and Facebook are aware I spend a lot of time and share a lot of my knowledge and friends some of my programs. I'm also an Instagram Twitter. So which is you know, those are the platform that I use but not like LinkedIn and Facebook. I have two websites there's one website called the W dot more like kima.com and then the alpha website which is the book website stepping into your greatness and my blog as well. That's what the greatness engineer calm and for the different books. You can see on Amazon they are available on Amazon muscle and yeah, and you know I do a show as well I have a show the greatness engineering show. I have a YouTube channel on that. And you can also catch up on some of the episodes on Facebook as well because it's on Facebook live as well. So James extending myself and, and I do a lot of speaking around the world I've not been to the US for quite some time. It's been 10 years now, but
wow, maybe it's time for you to come back then.
Yeah, I think that's, that's what's happening because I've been reached out by a lot of people from the US so I have to make it happen again, as
well. That's awesome. Cool. Yeah, go connect with her. We're going to have some of those links in the show notes here and we'll make sure that you know how to spell our name correctly because I don't think that It looks like it's not spelled the way it sounds in my mind. So definitely, if you're listening to this and you want to search her, go-go for it and find out exactly how she spelling your name. And that'll be in the show notes and then go find her friends her on Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, so you can stay up on this content and learn how you can step into your greatness. Okay, married today. Right now we're going to step into my second favorite part of this whole show, and that was called legacy on rapid-fire. Okay, so ladies, Have you listened to any of the episodes all the way through on my podcast?

how the how should that have accomplished was to
to learn a new language, especially the first time and I kid but you look so Secure when you can't communicate, so learning the language learning to communicate with different people I've been asking very difficult.
That's awesome. And what do you believe your greatest success to this point in your life has been?
My greatest test is
becoming the best of me. That's my greatest success looking at becoming the best of me. And, you know, I'm still how to what I've been able to accomplish so far.

My mind, my mindset, my positive mindsets.
Awesome. And then what are a few books that you'd recommend to the fuel your legacy audience
so shoeboxes Think and Grow Rich is one of the key books that have us. And
there's
so many of them.
But Think and Grow Rich has been a big one for me. I read a lot of books from Max
Maxwell as well.
Quite a few books. And
I will have a list actually, there's so many of them
are both great Napoleon Hill anything by him and John C. Maxwell. Both of them are phenomenal. And I want to make sure that we give another shout out to your book, stepping into greatness, the 12 rules of building an outstanding life. Those are just books that are going to change your life and they're going to give you some nuggets and things that are actionable. the thing that's cool about these books that she's mentioned her book thinking grow rich and pretty much anything by john c maxwell. You can read it and reread it and reread it and reread it and you're always going to get something new out of it depending on where you're at and what you're working on so that they're kind of books that never get old. And that's a key thing. What books are you reading every, every year twice a year that never getting old and thinking grow rich? JOHN C. Maxwell. At the top of those. So thank you for that. Here's the very last question that I asked people. And, and it's my favorite question at 100%. My favorite question is why I do this whole episode. And it sounds like it's going to be a surprise for you, which is exciting. So the quiet we got to pretend that you're dead though. Are you okay with that, Mary?
Okay. Again, I couldn't get
it. We're going to pretend that you've died.
Okay. Okay.
And we're gonna pretend that you've died and that you've got the opportunity to come back six generations from now. So that's your great-great, great, great, great-grandchildren come back and you're watching them or sitting in on a conversation that they're having around the dinner table. Okay, what do you want your great great great great great grandchildren six generations from now? What do you want them to be saying about your legacy?
Okay, that's, that's it.
I'm in my mind, I want them to you know, I want to leave a positive negative legacy which means that our them to, you know, be able to integrate and leave my philosophy this philosophy is to always, you know, strive to be the best that they can be. And one of my mottoes is don't leave anything on the table of life. So that's the way I want them to understand that they shouldn't leave anything on the table of life, they are equipped with unity everywhere, even in the most desperate situation. So they want to tell them that they need to be positive, they need to always look for opportunities, even in darkness, and we're how to get to the light, if that's required, require something impossible. They have to find what how they're going to get out of it, and how they're going to capitalize and how they're going to shine at the end of you know, get to the light and shine at the end of the tunnel. So that's I think that's powerful, you know, the legacy that I want to leave is that There's no desperate situation. It's about, you know, setting your mindset, you know? Right and, and looking for the positive into everything.
Yeah, I love that. I love it. So don't leave anything on the table of life. I think that's one of the most quotable legacies that I've heard when I asked this question. I love that. So thank you so much. And this, this podcast is designed to help people level up their game recognize when and where they have that initial dream, to go off on their own and become entrepreneurs and step into their greatness. And so that's why I had an area today is to help people understand that it doesn't matter where you're at, there's always a way to step into further greatness. It doesn't matter how high up on the rung or where you're at, and in success. There's always a way to level up and that's what I love about Mary's message. So thank you so much, Mary, for taking the time. Because from the future, it's Friday where she's not. And it's Thursday where I'm at. always exciting.
