Self Made Man

Well fam, I have two pretty big announcements I wanted to share with you today... The first is that Michelle and I have spent the past week recovering from Covid, but as the over-achiever I am, just getting Covid wasn’t enough. I had to go all-in, so I went ahead and got the regular flu at the same time.  I came down with a really severe fever for two days that went as high as 103.8 which was the regular flu, and then Covid kicked in which was marked by a constant low grade fever, and difficulty breathing.  Michelle lost her sense of taste and smell, but I retained mine.  Thankfully we have the support of some incredible doctors who took amazing care of us.  We took all of the supplements you can imagine, and they also put us on prescriptions for Ivermectin and Hydroxy Chlorochine.  The worst part was a three day period where it was getting increasingly difficult to breath. If you think you have Covid, you want to jump on Amazon or have someone run down to the local drug store to get you a blood oxygen meter

If you live in the United Kingdom, or if you’re a car fan, you’ve heard of Yianni from Yiannimize.  Yianni has an amazing rags to riches entrepreneur story that I find incredibly inspiring… In essence, he took his passion for cars and has built it into one of the most successful car modification businesses in the world, and a personal brand that’s grown by leaps and bounds thanks to a personality that’s as big as his heart.  Yianni’s story is a perfect example of the fact that you don’t need to be the person to get the job done.  He had no idea how to wrap or modify cars, but that didn’t stop him. He simply focused on hiring the right people, and today Yiannimize is the go-to business for the top celebrities and athletes across Europe when they want to customize their million dollar supercars.   Today he has over 1.2 million followers on Instagram, 1.8 million subscribers on YouTube, and you’re about to find out how he’s managed to build such an incredible brand.  Before we dive in, today’s episode is brought

In a time where attention is the most valuable resource in the world of business, learning how to capture and hold someone’s attention becomes a priceless skill.  Thankfully, we know without a shadow of a doubt after 10,000 years of history, that telling captivating, interesting, or entertaining stories is the key to winning over the human mind and heart.  Yesterday, I sent out an email to my readers about my new course, Richer Every Day.  Richer Every Day is a system, and a training program that teaches people how to turn the money you make today, into passive investment income that pays you forever.  If you want to learn how to make $100,000 per month in passive income, Richer Every Day will show you exactly how we’re doing that.  Now most emails you get about a product or service just jump straight into their pitch, and sure, there’s a time and a place for that, especially when you’re nearing a deadline, but there’s a much more effective way to sell, and that’s by using a story.  So I started yesterday’s e

I know there are a lot of you out there who are professionals in some form or another… You’re a doctor, a dentist, a lawyer, an engineer, and maybe an accountant, and if you’re listening to this podcast, there’s a very good chance that you’ve thought about starting an online business before… But there’s been confusion, or doubt that’s held you back. . After all, how could a dentist build an online business? Well today you’re going to meet my friend Dr. Galen Detrik who’s done exactly that. He and his wife Davina realized early on during their dental career, that there had to be a better way. They were overworked, stressed-out, and drowning in medical school debt just a handful of years into their career.  So they decided to make a change, and they built an online course.  Today, they make millions of dollars per year… Not only do they make millions from course sales, but the fact that they made a course, also positioned them as the recognized authority figures in their dental niche, which allowed them to subs

The single best way to build a million-dollar business is to solve a problem you have in your life at the moment. For John Fio, one of those problems was stress and anxiety.  One day he was talking to a doctor who casually mentioned that sleeping under a blanket that’s equal to 10% of your body weight, triggers a calming response in your body that can dramatically reduce anxiety.  A light-bulb went off, and John went to work…A few months later, he launched the idea for the weighted blanket on Kickstarter.  No one knew what a weighted blanket was, but people just seem to intuitively understand how it could help them, and how it works.  Within 24 hours, they’d sold over $1 million in pre-orders. Within their first 30 days, they’d made over $5 million in sales, and the Gravity Blanket was born.  Today, John’s going to fill you in on the entire story, and we’re going to discuss several important pieces of the puzzle that will be incredibly useful for everyone…For example, should you invest time and money into pa

So there’s a very good chance that you’ve heard my mold story over the past few years, and how it completely turned my life upside down for more than two years.  But what you probably don’t know, is just how big of a problem toxic mold is becoming… It’s estimated that 50% of all homes are currently infected with mold and that 25% of the global food supply contains the poisonous mycotoxins molds produce.  Some of the foods that contain the highest levels of toxic mold are nuts and coffee beans.  If you drink coffee, or eat any kind of protein bars or foods that contain nuts, you’re ingesting mycotoxins.  Most people’s bodies can clear these toxins out successfully as long as their exposure level doesn’t exceed their body’s capacity which is what happened in my case.  If your exposure levels get too high, it will overcome your body’s detox system and that’s when things will quickly take a turn for the worse.  To make matter worse, 1 in 4 American’s are missing the gene that allows their body to eliminate mycoto

Would you like to know how to grow a large and engaged following on social media? Well today our guest is arguably the best person in the world to learn from.  His name is Brendan Kane, and Brendan decided to grow his social media following from 0 to 1 million followers in just 30 days, just to demonstrate how it can be done.  Now the interesting piece of this puzzle is that Brendan is very much an introvert.  But he’s also incredibly scientific when it comes to figuring out how these platforms work. In a nutshell, he discovered that if you want your content to be seen by a lot of people, then you have to befriend the algorithm. And if you want to befriend the algorithm, you simply need to follow the three steps that he’s going to share with you here today in this incredibly valuable interview.  While social media definitely has its faults today, it is also an incredible opportunity to share your message, your products, and your services with the world in a way that’s never been possible before.  But there i

If you’ve ever wanted to build an extremely large business… One that could potentially do billions in revenue… There’s a pretty simple, proven way to do that, especially here in the US… So what’s the secret? You find an industry that already does billions in sales, and you start a business that offers a healthier version of those products.  Unfortunately, most people will look at an established industry and think the opportunity is gone, and that it would be nearly impossible to compete against the 500 pound gorillas in the space…  But that’s simply not the case…Look at Whole Foods as an example…They started up in the broring established grocery store business, and became one of the world’s biggest success stories by doing one thing… Stocking the shelves with healthy products instead of processed garbage.  Tesla is now the most valuable car company in the world because they took an unhealthy, dirty product, and created a healthier version.  We’ve previously had the Founder of Method on the show a few years ag

I’ll bet there’s a very good chance you feel like you’ve just stepped out of a month-long fight.  I’ll bet you’ve felt like your way of life has been threatened, and that your values were under attack.  And I’ll bet that you’ve gotten into a few heated discussions either online or in person, that led you to feel separated from, and maybe even a little betrayed by some of your friends or family members.  Well for better or worse, this election is over, and half the country feels like they won, and the other half feels like they were cheated.  With that being said, the most important thing now is that we use this period of escalated emotions to learn about the world, ourselves, and others.  And what kind of lessons could those be? Well I believe that the top of the list should be the skill of healthy and effective communication.  This is arguably the most valuable skill in the world, and it’s also one of the rarest.  Do you know how to have a healthy conversation with people who disagree with you? Do you know w

One of the biggest wake-up calls that came from dealing with my health crisis the past few years, was the fact that I did not have true passive income when I needed it most. I would have never imagined ever being in a place where I wasn’t able to physically work for more than two years. It was simply not a part of my reality. None-the-less, that’s exactly what happened. Dealing with a health crisis was hard enough. Adding financial stress on top of it made it infinitely more challenging. As you can imagine, I’ve sworn that I’ll never be in that place again. Over the past year, I’ve turned all of my focus towards the creation of truly passive income… This is money that doesn't come from a business, but from assets like dividend stocks and cash flow real estate. One of the people I’ve met along the way during this new journey, is our guest today, Justin Donald. Justin is a self-made millionaire and has turned himself into one of the smartest people I know when it comes to money and investing. He has also come t

If you’ve ever suffered from any kind of chronic illness, or if you know someone who has, this episode could change your life, or theirs… Our bodies are under assault on a daily basis… We’re eating dead and processed foods that are high in toxins and low in nutrients. We’re exposed to toxic chemicals, preservatives, pesticides, EMF radiation, and heavy metals in the air, our water, and what we eat.  This is putting an unprecedented amount of pressure on our immune systems.  Autoimmune diseases are skyrocketing, and as a result, there are entire niches in the food industry that are popping up with products designed for the growing number of people who can’t eat foods with wheat, dairy, or nuts because they cause an immune response in the body...  In addition to that, it’s estimated that over 60 million people are dealing with some form of parasitic infection.  As this toxin load increases, our immune system’s ability to handle the burden decreases, which opens the door to illnesses like Chronic fatigue, Lyme,

This has been one of the hardest years in history for a lot of people around the world.  Maybe it’s been yours… Maybe you’ve lost your job, or your business… Maybe you lost your relationship or the life of a loved one… Maybe you’ve given in to addictions like drugs, sugar, alcohol, or Netflix in order to help you escape the pain, stress, and anxiety you’ve been dealing with on a daily basis… Suicide, child abuse, and domestic abuse are at all time highs right now. People are in pain and they don’t know what to do about it.  Well today I get to introduce you to a friend of mine, and a force of nature with one of the most incredible stories you’ll ever hear, Garrain Jones.  Garrain knows what pain feels like... He knows what it’s like to lose his father. He knows what it’s like to live in a car for years at a time..  And he knows what it’s like to go to prison...  But he also knows how to pull yourself out of any situation you’re in, no matter how bad it might seem, and create a new future that’s filled with

How many times have we all heard the saying, “Freedom isn’t free”? I know I’ve heard it hundreds of times throughout my life, but it’s always been reviewed through the lens of war. Yes, I understand that securing our country and its freedoms have required us to go to war and make the ultimate sacrifice such as WWII, but without the context of war, and without a clear enemy, what does that phrase actually mean? If freedom isn’t free, then what price have I been paying to keep and protect our freedom? And I have to say that after I really thought about it, my answer was, “nothing”. Outside of sharing a few posts on social media, I’ve done absolutely nothing. And I’ll bet the same goes for you. After all, what can we do? What are we supposed to do? Well, have you ever seen a pinata at a child’s birthday party? You’d blindfold the kiddo so they can’t see what’s happening, spin them around to disorient them, and then give them a stick to flail aimlessly in the air while trying to tell them which way to turn and wh

Today’s episode should be a huge dose of ideas and inspiration for you, whether you’re a brand new entrepreneur, or a seasoned vet… Geoffrey Setiawan is a young man with a passion for helping people with their relationships… Specifically, he helps men save their marriages and from the testimonials I’ve seen, he is very, very good at it. Well a few weeks ago, I saw an interview with Geoffrey where he explained that he was making up to $70,000 per month in sales of this program, without paying a dollar in paid ads. In fact, 100% of his business was coming from a few YouTube videos he’d been posting. So I looked him up on YouTube, and he had less than 5,000 subscribers, and that blew my mind... Here’s someone making right around $1MM per year in course sales, and generating over 100 leads per day for free, after posting a few dozen videos online. I thought this would be an incredibly valuable story to share with you guys, so I reached out to Geoffrey, and today he’s going to walk you through his entire process,

Today I have the pleasure of introducing you to Mac Lackey. Mac has a pretty incredible history as an entrepreneur…  In fact, he sold his first business for 8 figures by the age of 27, and since then, he’s started, scaled, and sold 5 additional software companies.  While a lot of entrepreneurs think about the idea of selling their business for tens of millions of dollars or more as some kind of dream, Mac has turned it into a duplicatable process.  But what’s really unique about him, is that he doesn’t sell his businesses based on your typical earning formula.  Instead, he markets and sells his businesses to strategic buyers who are willing to pay 10-20 times more for his company than it would usually sell for.  A great example of a strategic acquisition would be WhatsApp, which was purchased by Facebook for $19 Billion in 2014, even though Whatsapp didn’t have any revenue at the time.  Can you imagine selling your business for $19 Billion, even though you’re not making any money yet? Well the rules get throw

I follow hundreds of crypto companies and experts on Twitter, and a few years ago I came across a Twitter account called @TryLolli.  It was for a startup based in New York that was doing something pretty smart… They were partnering with the world’s biggest online retailers, and giving shoppers free Bitcoin back, whenever they made a purchase.  So anytime you buy something from BestBuy, Macy’s, Foot Locker, or Sonos for example, you can get back 3-10% of your purchase back in Bitcoin.  Lolli has started to catch on like wild-fire and it became one of the first mass-market use-cases for Bitcoin because savvy shoppers knew that the Bitcoin they were getting back, could literally end up being worth more than the full price they paid for their purchase.  For example, if you purchased $1,000 worth of products using Lolli back in February of 2020, and got back 5% in Bitcoin, you’d have $50 in Bitcoin.  At that time the price of Bitcoin was around $3,500. So you would have received .014 Bitcoin.  Well today, as the p

If you’ve been a part of my world for more than a year or two, you know that I’m a huge fan of Bitcoin and crypto assets for years. I bought my first Bitcoin in 2013 for $75, and I’ve been continuing to buy more every single year.  Well, the next Bitcoin bull run has begun, and within the next 12 to 24 months, I predict that Bitcoin will hit $100,000 more.  Simply put, this is your last chance to make life-changing money by investing in crypto assets.  That’s not hype or hyperbole.  That’s simply the timing based on real-world facts and events, and that’s exactly what we’re going to discuss today.  In 2018, I started shouting from the rooftops that Wall Street is coming to crypto, and when they do, they’re going to bring Trillions of dollars with them.  A few of you believed me. Many of you didn’t.  Well, Wall Street is here.  The rules and regulations required for institutions to buy, sell, trade, and custody crypto assets have been put in place over the past 24 months.  You can now buy and sell Bitcoin on S

Over the past few years, I’ve had the privilege of witnessing and being a part of something absolutely incredible... In fact, it is without a doubt, the single most impactful experience of my life… I’m not referring to a specific event, but rather the gathering of an ever increasing number of people I consider, real life superheroes. It’s as if Austin has become a source of gravity for people around the world for people who have for lack of a better term, woken up, who have overcome life’s biggest challenges, and who have turned their challenge into a super power they’re now using to change the world for the better. Every month, another superhero moves to town, and the pull of its gravity becomes stronger and stronger, and as a result, it pulls even more like-minded leaders here. Many of these people have become our best friends, and in many ways we’ve become a family, and I have to say that being a part of a family made up of real life superheroes is about as good as it gets. Looking at our tribe from the ou

I’m going to keep this intro short and sweet, because all I need to tell you is this… If you listen to what Perry has to share with you today, and if you implement what you’re about to learn consciously and strategically, you will radically change your life and your business for the better This is one of the most valuable interviews we’ve ever had on this show, which is saying a lot.

When my friend Zach over at Scribe Media hit me up and asked if I’d like to interview the former CEO of Chipotle, I said heck ya, that sounds awesome. I’d love to talk to someone who’s helped build a business that I eat at all the time, and that’s currently valued at $38 billion dollars. But this interview with Monty Moran, turned out to be so much more… As you’re about to find out, Monty is one of the best conscious leaders in the world. I think we all naturally stereo-type people to some degree. Well Monty began his career as an attorney, but he ran and grew his law firm in a completely different way than you’d expect. Then he became the CEO of Chipotle, and he ran and grew the company in a completely different way that you’d expect. And today he is flying around American on a mission to heal the divide that’s been created in this country, in a completely different way than you’d expect. And he’s done all of this, but the age of 50. If Monty were running for President of the United States, this man would ge
