From Addiction to Empowerment_ How Teresa Built a Business with Purpose _ Tulsa Talks_

from Tulsa Talks · host The Complete Piece Movement

Today on Tulsa Talks, we hear from Teresa McConnell, founder of Level Up Cleaning, whose story of recovery, resilience, and radical integrity shows us what’s possible when community meets purpose. From addiction and homelessness to building a thriving cleaning business with a heart for service, Teresa proves that transformation is real—and contagious. Her story walks us through every step of the 10 Stages of Life: Humility: Brought to rock bottom by addiction and handed a court order that changed everything. Redemption: Finding recovery through community, learning life anew at age 40. Power: Rebuilding her life one day at a time—then building a business others could believe in. Being: Creating systems, culture, and structure from the ground up to help others thrive. Mercy: Offering grace to others who are struggling—and herself along the way. Abundance: Paying it forward with good wages, weekly pay, and free cleans for cancer patients. Witness: Living her story out loud so others can believe in their own comeback. Sovereignty: Trusting the process of growth—even when it’s messy or unexpected. Reconciliation: Healing old wounds and transforming pain into purpose for her team and clients. Completion: Building a life, a business, and a legacy rooted in integrity, compassion, and hope. This isn’t just a business success story—it’s a life reclaimed and repurposed for good. If you think it’s too late to start over, or you’re unsure how to move forward, let this conversation with Terresa light the way. 🎙️ Tulsa Talks – Real stories. Real transformation.

I'm a teacher, author, nature lover and for ten years I owned a coffeehouse cafe where my faith in the goodness of humans was restored every day. This podcast highlights the awesomeness of humanity - er...outside the warmongers, globalists, tyrants and politicians in general.

I talk too much because I can't help my Gemini moon and Leo Rising nature. I do a podcast because it's cheaper, funnier and more productive than therapy.
