Sheila Ann Pullum Jr Wants To Help Others Understand Their Finances And Avoid The Mistakes That She Made

Perseverance is an important quality for anyone who is trying to establish a business. It is important to keep pushing for your goals in order to achieve them. Sheila Ann Pullum Jr. is the master of perseverance. She has struggled to get where she is today. She has gone through many adversities including dropping out of high school, having her first child at 17, losing her brother and many other setbacks. Despite all of this, she went from a high school dropout to a thriving business woman at the top of her game.

As someone who has struggled with her own credit and finances, it was Sheila’s goal to achieve her own financial goals while giving back to others through teaching them best practices for their own financial security. Once she turned her life around, she knew she wanted to find ways to help change and enrich the lives of others. She prioritizes helping others rather than focusing on the financial gain, which allows her to give back to her community and the people around her.

“Sheila Pullum Financial LLC is a brand of its own crafted from authenticity and the passion to serve and help people grow. I do not focus on money, I focus on serving. My passion is to help people get from where they are to where they desire to be. States Sheila.

Sheila has always had a passion for helping others, and wanted to find a way to help individuals on a larger scale. Sheila found her momentum after purchasing a Credit Repair and Financial Literacy Franchise. She has successfully helped people upgrade their credit, buy homes, and much more because they were able to get their credit and their finances in order.

“By purchasing my Credit Repair and Financial Literacy Franchise, I’ve been able to live my passion of service. I assist others with upgrading their lives through the power of credit and entrepreneurship. I made mistakes with my own credit and when I corrected those mistakes I found out the power good credit holds and felt it was my moral obligation to share it with others.” Says Sheila.

Life was not always easy for Sheila. However, despite numerous setbacks that would have kept the average person down and unable to achieve their goals, Sheila continued to push and work harder. She never let her circumstances get the best of her.

“I dropped out of high school and had my first son at 17 years old. I later obtained a GED and then went even further to get a Bachelors of Science in Human Services. I lost my job 5 years ago from a mistake that was on my record from when I was 19 years old. I was humiliated, embarrassed and ashamed. Although that record is now expunged. I made the decision to never put myself in that position again. ” Recounts Sheila.

Sheila is now one of the top producers in her company. Her ability to help others is visible in everything that she does. For Sheila, one of the things that made a difference in her struggle for success was her change in mindset, she changed her mindset and changed her life. Instead of allowing life to get her down, she kept going and replaced bad habits with success building habits. This is important to build any business and was particularly important for Sheila.

“Mindset is very important when starting a business and the foundation to build from. There is no way to win in business or in life until you first win in your mind. I believe one of the biggest challenges many people face is self belief, that use to be one of my challenges so I’ve had to overcome this by unlearning old non-productive habits and replacing them with successful habits.” Explains Sheila.

Sheila’s next project incorporates her theme of helping others understand and improve their mindset and financial literacy through a Money Mindset Course. She is now a mentor in her industry, a known figure in the Bay Area, and a successful businesswoman who tackles major feats like no other. For Sheila, financial freedom is crucial to enjoying life, which is why she wants to help others understand how finances and credit work and how to build better credit.

“Financial freedom is having a healthy relationship with money, investments and passive income, so for my next project I want to create a Developing a Money Mindset Course to help people achieve their own financial freedom. I want to use my mindset and ability to inspire others to be the source of light to people.” Remarks Sheila.
