Send us Fan MailYou’re watching the surface. The real work happens off-camera.See how creators, founders, and brands build at https://attractivemindsetstudio.com/In Part 1 of our Demesmin & Dover series, we’re not starting with wins — we’re starting with the real story.Jeremy shares what it was like growing up with a mom on disability and a father battling a drinking problem, then experiencing a life-altering medical emergency where, in his words, “you died… they had to shock you back.” He also opens up about losing his mother three days after graduation, arriving in Miami with no money, and being “homeless technically for a month in law school.”Vic’s background is different — raised in a Haitian household where education mattered, and a father who was constantly pivoting as industries changed: travel agency → real estate → insurance → mortgage. That adaptability became a mindset: “no matter what, we’re always going to find a solution.”And then — the moment that ties it together: they meet in court, and what starts as a joke turns into a partnership that would eventually become Demesmin & Dover.Attractive Mindset (Season 4) is a 2-part story series: Part 1: The background story — who they were before success Part 2: The current them — how they flourished and scaledWatch Part 2 next week for the business gems: how they started, scaled, and built Demesmin & Dover through real adversity.#AttractiveMindset #DemesminAndDover #Podcast #LawFirm #EntrepreneurMindset #MiamiChapters & Timestamps0:00 — Meet Demesmin & Dover1:11 — Before the Success3:12 — Two Different Upbringings4:19 — The Moment He Almost Died8:10 — Loss Changed Everything10:17 — The Courtroom Meeting14:28 — A Thank You Too Late15:08 — Raised to Believe Bigger17:30 — When Everything Fell Apart21:30 — Law School vs Real Life23:09 — The First Impression25:05 — Opposites Make the Strongest Teams27:24 — The Partnership Decision30:35 — Why Legacy Matters More Than Money31:21 — Starting During COVID32:23 — Part 2 PreviewFollow the guest: https://www.instagram.com/demesminanddover/?hl=enFollow Us: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/attractivemindsetnetworkInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/attractivemindsetnetwork/Website: https://attractivemindsetstudio.com/
