Nehemiah Davis and his mom PODCAST (1st draft)

 1) NO CHINKS IN YOUR ARMOR

Mom- You know what, the funny, the thing that struck me the most about you:  I NEVER KNEW YOU DIDN'T HAVE MONEY.

NEO- Where was I getting money from ?

Mom: I mean, you didn't make it a big deal!

NOE- OH, never! You would never know if I don't have money. 

Some people, when they don't have money they say: "Oh, I dont have money." You never mentioned whether you had money or didn't have money. You were always happy.

NEO- I read a book, about.... And I don't know what book it was, but he talks about having no chinks in your armor. The idea behind that concept is EVEN WHEN YOU ARE DOING BAD, YOU NEVER LET NOONE KNOW IT OR THEY GONNA USE IT AGAINST YOU.

So even if I'm doing bad right now, you will not know it, EVER. It's rare that I'm gonna let you know that I'm doing bad and I was doing bad for a long time. 

Mom- and you were doing trips

Neo- Oh, I had the trip play.

I gave myself no other option. I was mentally unemployable. 

Enterpreneurship was going to work for me. 

Even when I was doing bad, I knew it wasn't bad because I knew this was my only option.  OR DEATH. Most people are not willing to take it that far, I AM. 

I had decided that I was going to make this work. If it mean not eating all day until I got home. Go watch Wheel of Fortune with my grandma and eat whatever she made.

RICE AND GRAVY,  

Mom- You see the truck, you see the fruit piled up, you looked like you were doing well.

I wasn't making money for a long time. 

NEO- we did it and we started giving back to the community and we never stopped.

MOM- We didnt miss a Monday. You said: "I want to give them everything they cant get"

they loved it because you would bring ice cream, then you had your friends come in and give sneakers, 

THAT'S WHERE WE TOOK OFF, WITH SERVICE.

NEO- so i got this concept, SERVE YOUR WAY TO SUCCESS. you need to make a difference in the lives or someone else.

GOD REALLY LIKES WHEN YOU FEED THE HOMELESS. 

 Just serve, 

mom- i call it serving but i also instilled in you thinking. i believe a large part of your success came from you...

Whatever I ask you for the less fortunate you always give the money. 

No matter how much money you make, I want to make sure you pay your thithes. God says I give you the 90 percent .

NEO- you tell me that every week. I dont think that you are ever gonna stop.

I forgot, i went to community college. FAST FOWARD TO NOW.

MOM- I used to say i want to have a herb store in 52nd st. I would say that to you ever so often. One day

one day you said, mom go and find it your herb story in 52nd st. I found the perfect place, it was 

across from my original family store. You said, " apply, apply."

YOUR CREDIT MAY NOT BE WHAT IT NEEDS TO BE. BUT IF YOUR INTEGRITY CAN SPEAK FOR YOU, LET THEN YOUR INTEGRITY SPEAK.

I didn't have the best credit at that moment. So I wrote a nice little letter, with the application although my credit will not reflect my integrity I'm gonna ask you to give me an opportunity to show you that I can be a great business owner.

YOU GAVE ME ALL THE MONEY, YOU FULLY STOCKED IT. 

I had this idea to have a great opening. To invite the mayor, 

I'm just waiting to have more items. 

You told me "Mom, what are you waiting for? Open with what you have."

People came from all over. You helped, twins helped, and for 12 years....

NEO: ITS BEEN THAT LONG?

 we have served the community. We did the best we could to get them healed, whole and satisfied.

TIME IS MOVING FAST, TIME AINT WAITING ON NOBODY. 

i want to say thank you for believing in me.

Neo: You havent had a job for how long?

since a long time. I havent worked a real job for so long. 

God blessed you to bless me. I never want to steal his glory. 

That's why I pray and I return that. Bible says ' honor your father and your mother so that your days may be long."

Because you honor me in such a way 

IT WAS AMAZING, IT WAS INCREDIBLE. 

I wanted a herbal business because when you were a baby... 2 or 3. I went to my annual physical. 

they said i had high blood pressure. I SAID, I'M 20 SOMETHING I CANT HAVE BLOOD PRESSURE.

I didnt take the medicine. I said "I'll come back and see you in 30 days." I did research in high blood pressure. 

so i went and i purchased the calcium, magnesium

I went back after 30 days, and blood pressure was normal.

2nd instance. i had hurt myself on the job. I got an ultrasound on my back. They said, you have to 

see the GYN. they said i had a cyst the size of grapefruit on my ovary. 

Let me do my hebal research on cyst. 

I called a herbalist in Utah. He told me what to do to get rid of the cyst.  I did everything specifically. And the cyst passed out of me. 

3rd instance. the twins had a dance recital, my heart was beating real fast. I went to the ER. They said, Oh your heart  beats 158 beats a minute. can i stop your heart to see why its beating so fast? 

the doctor looked at me like i might drop dead. I got out, did my herbal research again. i was sitting there, if I moved, my heart would flutter.  whatever i did my heart fluttered. 

There was a doctor on the radio. 

I went to the herb store. 100 people waiting to see him. 

He said, its not your heart, its your thyroid.

I'm asking people to consider 4-5 opinions .I had Chinese doctor, reflex allergy, colonic. I did not wait and wait to become a statistic under someone's hand. 

DONT JUST DEPEND ON YOUR DOCTOR.

Bible says: HEAL YOURSELF. herbs are for the healing of the nation. and that's the herb. 

Mom- last words. I want to plug God. He has been my every single thing from day 1. It is so important that you establish a relationship. 

things are dead and dormant, no life right now. establish a relationship with the Lord. Invite Jesus Christ in to be your Lord and Savior. We all need his grace and mercy at this time.
