From the deeply moving to the purely fun, “Tamron Hall” is a daily destination for all things topical and a platform for viewers to connect with the people who are shaping our world through meaningful, engaging, and entertaining conversations. As a new mom, a newlywed, and a survivor who is proving you can accomplish anything at any age, Tamron Hall brings a refreshing, relatable, unpredictable, and unstoppable voice to television.
Broadcast from New York City featuring a dynamic mix of live and taped shows, “Tamron Hall” airs across the country in national syndication.
She was born to be a leader. Her demeanor, her articulation, her forethought and ability to deliver a message. She just had to be educated on how to get to her purpose. She needed someone to take a chance on her. Most of the time people achieve less, not because they are less capable...It is all about knowledge and network. She broke generational curses, just by visioning more and going after it in faith.
Something I've noticed between Arlan and Tamron. Tamron is so used to her sensationalistic style of journalism that the moment someone (like Arlan) who seems out of her element comes on, she seems defensive as if she doesnt know what hit her and that's why I think many struggle with Hall because she's like Wendy Williams disguised with a more serious setup.
"Just by visioning more and going after it in faith."....that's the message!
@@MakeMeCare89 I've viewed Tanron dozens of times in her professional capacity as a journalist. And there was nothing about her demeanor or delivery that came across as 'sensationalist'. Not once. She has an afternoon talk show which is vastly different from investigative journalism. There's no comparison.. In addition, her guest today is hardly a radical departure from the wide range of people she's interviewed over the years. I don't know why you would rake this stance.
That proves she never deserved to poor, like them OTHERS
Where’s the BLACK FATHER? This is the problem
Overcoming homelessness to achieve millionaire status is an incredible journey, and it highlights the resilience and determination of individuals
This inspiring story sheds light on the challenges faced during that time, including securing basic necessities, finding employment, and rebuilding a life. While financial advising might not have been a starting point, integrating it into the journey could offer strategic insights to sustain and grow newfound wealth.
Absolutely. The initial struggle to meet basic needs and secure stable employment showcases the grit required to overcome homelessness. As this individual's financial situation evolves, considering the complexities of managing newfound wealth, engaging a financial advisor becomes crucial. Their expertise can guide strategic decisions, ensuring long-term financial stability and growth.
It's fascinating to hear about this journey. How do you think involving a financial advisor later in the process contributed to sustaining and growing the wealth?
@fredarkins_ which can you boldly recommend
i just googled the man you mentioned, I am quite impressed with his credentials, will get in touch because I need all the help I can get, and consequently schedule a phone call. Thanks.
Helping others and determination really resonate with me. I moved away from generic advice and focused on thorough research, which led to a $1.6M investment return in less than a year. Taking the right steps will get you anywhere
to be realistic, Luck plays a significant role more-so than the resources to thrive with investing. without it, it's very challenging to succeed, been there
when its consistent, its not considered luck. research was the challenge till it led to Emily Ava Milligan, a top fund manager, her strategy made 290k into this and counting.
I pasted her name into my browser, her website popped right up, Your example is so rare and tangible i wish i had it earlier to reference. thanks for sharing
If you don’t take anything else away from this clip, know that 1) you are capable of becoming a millionaire and 2) you are worthy of becoming a millionaire. Get that mindset shift and you’ll be light years ahead of the game. Kudos to Arlan speaking life and investing in to the underestimated. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Tamrons wardrobe is so diverse but always 🔥
So glad I saw this… Gives me motivation. Tired of living paycheck to paycheck. There has to be a way out ..
Yes!! I’m with you on this🔥🔥❤️✊🏾
That part.....then they want us to keep working to what age again?.....so over it...
Yes ma'am! Could NOT agree more!
@MOBETTA4423 sooooo over it!
my feelings exactly!
A female version of "The Pursuit of Happiness" how wonderful!
Yesss
Ms. Hamilton your story is so inspiring. I ordered your book because I am going to be one of the people you will finance. Dreams do come through.
I am inspired to do the same💜
Yes Wendy, I'm currently reading her first bk. I'll be honest; I belong to the category of those who buy n read the bk, but don't execute with consistency. I changed my mindset during covid. I am worthy of selling my services for 6 figures...💫
I’m purchasing it NOW💫
I just requested my library to add your book to their collection
I will do that to
Yea
I WORK in a library. Will check to see if we have it on Monday morning. 🫡
Arlan is driven and determined. She identified a severe community problem and went into problem solving mode. What a great trait to have! And Jessica, Nigeria is proud of you ❤🇳🇬
Listening to her I realize I can do more! As I lie in comfort every night when I go to bed and hearing how she lived in airport really hits at me. She’s amazing and shows what one can do. I know it’s not easy.
This lady is dope. I wish she was my auntie. So confident and smart.
"You will be in rooms I'll never be in..." That is a powerful phrase and quote. To pass on healthier knowledge and investments, is commendable, it takes a strong beautiful-hearted person to do that.
Arlan seems so sweet and humble.m
Arlan is a remarkable woman. Her story and ethos so very inspiring. I have read both of her books and learned so much. Thanks Tamron for featuring her on your show.
Beautiful people doing beautiful things, and blessings to all of you. Tamron, I appreciate you and your platform. Thank you, Arlan and Jessica for your contributions.
i just love her story. So proud of Arlan!!!
I love the positivity 😊
❤Bless you Tamron for sharing this beautiful woman and her mission on your platform!! Arlan is Such an INSPIRATION !
Absolutely, impeccable. All three of you ladies in your own way should be proud of yourself!!!
I needed to hear this, it definitely starts with believing first 🙏🏽🙏🏽 Thank you for seeing and motivating us and allowing God to use you as a vessel Arlan ❤️
3 years to even get a yes. Most people can’t last that long. Sometimes you have to keep going regardless of others responses
The road to success is not paved with gold ,it's the bits and pieces of sweat ,inspiration and perseverance .
Wow, blown away by this story. We need more kingdom leaders like her. She is simple, smart & wanting to truly give back to the community. I hope God continues to bless her & give her the grace to continue helping our people.
God bless her!😊
Selah! 🤲🏾

Love love love this
Immeasurable appreciation and gratitude for this viewing, and Inspiring Queen Stories !🎉✨💯🌹💚
They are brilliant
This is impressive!
This is BEAUTIFUL AND AMAZING!!! My God!! ❤❤❤❤🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
“Staying in the game long enough to reach success…” is what stuck with me.❤
Da’Vine Joy Randolph should play her in a biopic. It would be a perfect star vehicle and story to be told.
Nigerians are so smart!
Some are con artists. Gloria Egbuniwe
Yes, they are.
And industrious
I'm confused is she Nigerian?
❤love this
This is a great woman ❤
Them big ass earrings Tamron rocking! I actually LOVE them. Jewelry accessories are my weakness.
When she said homeless I thought she meant living in a tent…
❤❤❤super proud of her and so so happy❤❤❤
Amazing
Inspiring
Bless up ❤❤❤
I must this story is incredible. It takes a lot to come from the point of sleeping at your airport to becoming a successful VC. To see that Shark Star Mark Cuban believed in you to fund your dream is awesome. He doesnt just invest into every deal but He believed in your story. I think some of us need that someone who saw where you could go beyond where you were. This life isnt a straight line it has turns ups and downs my God if you navigate this storm its powerful.
I was able to invest Backstage Capital through equity crowdfunding campaign
I love it 👏👏👏💯🙏
❤ stories like this ❤
I have always said that Mark Cuban would be an amazing president; he is brilliant and most importantly he has a heart...I wish he would run
Now This Is #MustSeeTV #YesWeLaunch #YesWeGrow #YesWeInvest #YesWeInnovate #YesWeVC #YesWeWIN
I still don't get how she did it?
"I'm reading words that I don't understand!" 😂😂😂
I am naturally skeptical. I still don't know what Arlan does but I am excited to know more.
both incredible women.
Wow! I feel like her life could be turned into a movie🍿🎥!
It’s like the real life pursuit of happiness
I love to see beautiful Queens doing great things in the world. Intelligence looks good on them.
We can do this❤
Fantastic video, please can you do a video on best stock to buy right now, i'm currently on $60k weekly with swing trade and want to venture into.
Damn! that's huge, how do you make that much weekly? I'm 37 and have been looking for ways to be successful, please how??
Oh yeah, that was possible with the help of my Guru Jenifer Spencer ❤
She's a licensed broker and entrepreneur from the state 🇺🇸
That's great!!. I don't know anything about investing and I intend to start. What are your strategies?
The best strategy is starting with a professional coach, as a beginner who knows little or nothing in forex market
Congratulations on breaking the homeless cycle. But aside from getting an investment for your company, did you sell a product? Or is your service solely an investment company?
Mark Cuban seems to be such an outstanding guy.
Hi there, I’m so glad to hear all the motivations and challenges of mindset.And I saw all the power and the knowledge and the keep on going and the believe you have in your God and yourself. We built to work together and to make a pact for the future of our children in communities and what not the world. I am proud of all of you guys and especially my strong and powerful women all nations. I’m an I am an orphan woman who been suffering and struggling in all my life. I’m originally from Haiti and I come in US on my thirsty’s and I don’t have any family relationships in here. But I had my God! And one day I might be able to tell you my story and now I just started to be a Real Estate Investor and I need some women to be partners with on this journey. And thank you my dear for all your good work support for our community, thank you 🙏🏼 ❤ ❤ May the Lord Almighty bless you and your family. Happy Sabbath. I love you so much.
WOW WOW WOW 👌 PEACE AND PEACE WITH BLESSINGS 🙏 ❤❤
WOW!
Still don't understand what she do
I have a PhD and I don’t understand either.
It’s pretty simple she has an investment firm that invest in diverse underrepresented founders specifically in tech.
She raises money to invest in other people's businesses for a share of the business. When those businesses make money, she makes money
Links for these ladies should have been included. If you wanna help Is help Us.
Underestimated = Undervalued. Smart!
Omw Jessica!!!!!!!❤❤
Random is a great host
Why we just can’t be a “Black Woman”? Gay is your sexual preference. You’re a beautiful wealthy black woman who worked hard to be where you are today. We don’t care if you’re gay or straight.
I thought I was the only one that was thinking what the heck sexuality has to do with it.
@@wentzel812 exactly!
Because our sexuality is still being policed and outlawed, it’s very much a part of my identity just like brown.
I agree, but they barely getting the right to marry same sex partners and adopt as well. It's 2024 and the lgbtq + still have trouble getting accepted and the respect they deserve
@wentzel812 respectfully it's a narrative of being the most oppressed ppl. Today most ppl don't care if one is lbgt as long as they are not pressuring children to be concerned with making life changing adult decisions.
