Meet Demarcus Taylor

Demarcus Taylor is a personal and business financial strategist, author, life and executive coach. Demarcus decided to turn his pain into a business and live a life of service. As a teenager, Demarcus was a college student-athlete facing life in prison, which resulted in him running towards destructive activities for comfort.

He sold drugs, physically and mentally abused people, and worked at several unfulfilling jobs that would hire an ex-offender. He drastically developed himself to earn a six-figure salary as an Industrial Construction Manager to being broke, divorced, homeless living in his car, and taking showers at planet fitness.

Demarcus wrote his first book ‘Turn Your Catastrophe Into a Masterpiece’ and started his brand while homeless. In spite of his many hardships, Demarcus decided to free himself from the label of a felon and live a life of substance.

Tammy Reese: Describe yourself in three words?

Demarcus Taylor: Visionary, Resourceful, Resilient.

Tammy Reese: What inspired you to become an entrepreneur?

Demarcus Taylor: Being rejected and not being in control of my destiny inspired me to become an
entrepreneur.

Tammy Reese: What do you love most about the work that you do?

Demarcus Taylor:  The things I love the most about what I do is opening the eyes of individuals who
allowed their blind spots to hinder their unlimited possibilities and to help them become
the person or operating organization they’ve always dreamed of.

Tammy Reese: What are some obstacles you have faced in your life that resulted in triumph?

Demarcus Taylor:  As a teenager, I faced life in prison. I went through a divorce, being homeless, and sleeping in
my car and taking showers at planet fitness with .75 cents in my bank account.

That happened for me to become an author, complete my 4-year degree, reach the highest certifications in the industrial construction industry, and generate $250k in cash last year.

Also, I purchased a franchise business and an apartment building to close the year 2020.

marriage, and increasing my financial intelligence for the year 2021.

Tammy Reese: What advice you would give others who may feel their past will prevent them
from success?

Demarcus Taylor:  I’d say you’re more than enough to do exactly what you desire to do in your heart.

Allow the rejections, disbelief, and fear to be warning signs that you’re supposed to be doing exactly what you’re fearing to do.

If you break the barrier imagine how many other people are going to break the same barrier because you decided to run towards your fears. DO IT ANYWAY.
