We had the good fortune of connecting with Trip Sanders and we’ve shared our conversation below.
Hi Trip, what do you want your legacy to be?
I want my legacy to display my authenticity, resilience and ambition. I want my story to empower everyone to defy the odds. I’m not perfect and I’ve made costly mistakes in my life, my legacy should show that no matter what I kept fighting, I didn’t quit, and I did it with God and the village he blessed me with. If i can go toe to toe with stage 4 lung cancer then everyone else can fight their toughest battles head on whether win or lose.
What should our readers know about your business?
Trillionaires Only is more than just a brand; it is a movement that aims to inspire and empower individuals to be their truest selves, no matter the circumstances they face. What sets us apart from others is the deeply personal story behind the brand and the values we uphold.
What we are most proud of and excited about is the impact we have had on people’s lives. We receive messages from individuals who have found strength and motivation through our brand, whether they are battling their own health issues or pursuing their dreams. Knowing that we have made a positive difference in someone’s life is incredibly rewarding.
Getting to where we are today hasn’t been easy. The founder’s diagnosis of stage 4 lung cancer was a significant challenge that could have easily derailed my ambitions. However, I chose to channel my experience into something positive and impactful. Through determination, resilience, and a strong support system, I overcame the challenges and turned Trillionaires Only into a reality.
The lessons learned along the way have been invaluable. We have learned the importance of staying true to our core values and remaining authentic in everything we do. We have discovered the power of resilience and the ability to rise above adversity. We have also learned that success is not just about personal achievements; it is about uplifting and inspiring others.
What we want the world to know about Trillionaires Only is that it is a brand built on a genuine desire to empower individuals. Our story is one of hope, strength, and embracing one’s true self. We want people to know that they are capable of achieving greatness, regardless of the challenges they face. Trillionaires Only is here to inspire and support individuals on their journey to becoming the trillest version of themselves.
If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
If my best friend was visiting Orlando, I would make sure to show them the best time ever! Here’s a week-long itinerary packed with fun, excitement, and memorable experiences:
Day 1: After picking up my friend from the airport, we would start the trip with a delicious brunch at Hash House A Go Go, known for their oversized portions and creative dishes. We would then head to Universal Orlando Resort for a day of thrilling rides and magical experiences in both Universal Studios and Islands of Adventure.
Day 2: We would kick off the day with a visit to the iconic Orlando Eye, a giant observation wheel offering breathtaking views of the city. For lunch, we would head to Black Rooster Taqueria, a trendy spot known for its mouthwatering tacos. In the afternoon, we would explore the vibrant and artistic district of Thornton Park, strolling through charming streets, visiting local boutiques, and maybe even catching an art gallery exhibit.
Day 3: A visit to Orlando wouldn’t be complete without experiencing the magic of Disney World. We would spend the whole day exploring the enchanting lands of Magic Kingdom, meeting beloved Disney characters, and enjoying classic attractions. To end the day, we would head to Disney Springs for a fantastic dinner at The Boathouse, where we can savor delicious seafood while enjoying the waterfront views.
Day 4: We would start the day with a visit to the Kennedy Space Center, where we can learn about space exploration, witness awe-inspiring rocket launches, and even meet real astronauts. After a day of discovery, we would head to Park Avenue in Winter Park, a charming area with beautiful shops and cafes. We would have dinner at Prato, a fantastic Italian restaurant offering delicious handmade pasta and wood-fired pizzas.
Day 5: For a change of pace, we would spend the day exploring the natural beauty of the area. We would visit Wekiwa Springs State Park, where we can swim in crystal-clear springs, hike through scenic trails, and even rent a canoe to paddle along the peaceful river. In the evening, we would head to Church Street in downtown Orlando, known for its vibrant nightlife, to enjoy live music, dancing, and great cocktails.
Day 6: As animal lovers, we would dedicate this day to wildlife encounters. We would start with a visit to Gatorland, where we can get up close with alligators and other fascinating reptiles. Afterward, we would head to SeaWorld Orlando, enjoying thrilling rides, mesmerizing shows featuring sea creatures, and even having a chance to swim with dolphins.
Day 7: On the final day, we would relax and enjoy the beautiful beaches near Orlando. We would take a short drive to Cocoa Beach, where we can soak up the sun, swim in the Atlantic Ocean, and indulge in fresh seafood at one of the beachside restaurants. In the evening, we would have a farewell dinner at The Ravenous Pig in Winter Park, a renowned gastropub offering a delightful fusion of flavors.
Throughout the week, I would also make sure to surprise my friend with some hidden gems, like local farmers’ markets, quirky food trucks, and live music venues. Orlando truly has something for everyone, whether it’s theme parks, natural wonders, arts and culture, or delicious dining experiences.
Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
First and foremost, none of this is possible without God! He deserves the biggest shoutout! Next, I want to shoutout my wife, Chelsea Camp! She’s weathered this storm with me from the time i was diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer, to supporting my decision and vision to start my clothing brand Trillionaires Only, to helping me deal with grief and trauma and loving me through it day in and day out. I’m grateful for her and my Air Force village and my village of friends and fam!
