In this episode, I sit down with JR Rivas and Nik Robbins—two entrepreneurs who’ve built multi-8-figure businesses—for a raw and unfiltered conversation about their journeys, personal transformations, and the challenges they've faced along the way. We dive deep into the realities of racism in America, comparing it to other countries, and unpack how systemic and cultural influences shape society. JR, who is black and grew up without a father, shares his firsthand experiences with racial bias and stereotypes, and we discuss potential solutions to these deeply rooted issues. 

But that’s just the beginning. We also explore the role of faith—specifically Christianity—in finding peace, purpose, and growth. JR opens up about his recent turn to Jesus and how it has completely transformed his life, giving him a renewed sense of direction and calm that money alone couldn’t provide. Even though neither JR nor Nik grew up religious, both reflect on how spirituality and community have brought them deeper meaning and purpose. 

This episode ends with JR’s powerful story of embracing faith and how it’s reshaped his outlook on life, business, and fulfillment. If you’ve ever wondered about the intersection of success, faith, and personal transformation, this is one conversation you won’t want to miss. 

ENJOY!
