  • Mel Robbins: The Trick To Unlocking A Happier Life

    Most people know Mel Robbins for her viral “5 Second Rule” or her bestselling book The Let Them Theory. But what they don’t know is the raw, messy story behind how she went from $800,000 in debt and hiding from bill collectors… to building one of the biggest self-improvement empires in the world.

    In this episode, Mel opens up about the moment she almost lost everything — her home, her marriage, her hope — and what finally snapped her out of it. She reveals the brutally honest conversation that changed her life, how she clawed her way back one tiny habit at a time, and why she says every entrepreneur has to “fight for the first 15 minutes of the day.”
    If you’ve ever wondered how to actually rebuild when life falls apart — or how to finally defeat failure, jealousy, and burnout — this conversation is for you.

  • Billionaire’s Advice to Young People | Joe Liemandt

    Most billionaires disappear after they make their money. Joe Liemandt did exactly that — vanishing for 20 years after building Trilogy into a software empire. Now he's back with a radical mission: transform education for a billion kids using AI. In this episode, the reclusive tech mogul breaks his silence to reveal why he's betting another billion dollars that everything we know about school is wrong.


    Thanks to GoDaddy for sponsoring this video! Head to ⁠godaddy.com/codiesanchez⁠ to get started with GoDaddy Airo® today.


    From fifth graders negotiating food truck gross margins to middle schoolers getting paid $1,000 to hit the top 1% academically, Joe's Alpha School is flipping education on its head. Kids learn twice as much in just two hours a day, then spend afternoons launching Broadway musicals, building apps, or training for D1 sports. The results? 96% of students love school more than vacation, and every single class tests in the top 1% nationally.


    We dive deep into why Joe believes the 100-year-old classroom model is dead, how AI tutors can teach kids 10x faster, and why paying students to learn might be the most controversial — and effective — motivator yet. If you've ever wondered what happens when a data-driven billionaire decides to rebuild education from scratch, or if you're tired of watching kids hate school while the world leaves them behind, this conversation will change how you think about learning forever.

  • Nothing and Nobody Will Ever Hurt You Again - After This.

    Most people think failure is the end. I thought that too — until I got rejected from every Ivy League school, barely scraped into Arizona State, and watched my career implode over and over again. In this raw episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on every spectacular failure that built my empire: the boss who said I'd leave dead bodies behind to get ahead, the million-dollar payout to a bad partner, and the moment I almost lost everything with weeks of cash left.

    From getting pushed out of companies to navigating a brutal divorce in front of my entire firm, these aren't just war stories — they're the blueprint for turning your biggest losses into your greatest wins. I share why the chip on your shoulder is worth more than a pat on the back, how to know when you're made of paper versus walls, and why your bank account is a direct reflection of the difficult conversations you're willing to have.

    If you've ever felt like you're drowning while trying to look calm on the surface, or if you're tired of playing it safe while watching others win big, this episode will show you exactly why failure isn't just the entry price to success — it's the only currency that matters.

  • Brainwash Yourself to Success | Kendra Scott

    I sat down with Kendra Scott — yes, *that* Kendra Scott — to unpack how she turned $500 and a side hustle into her billion-dollar brand Kendra Scott. We talk about how she bootstrapped from her spare bedroom, sold jewelry door-to-door with a baby on her hip, and built an empire by staying authentic when everyone else chased trends. You’ll hear the raw, unpolished truth about scaling a business, why passion and persistence matter more than perfect timing, and how she’s now flipping the script as an investor and founder of Yellow Rose. If you’re building something from scratch or just need a reminder that grit beats glam, this one’s for you.

  • Doctor: This Will Strip Your Fat Faster Than Anything! | Dr. Gabrielle Lyon

    In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Gabrielle Lyon to unpack something most entrepreneurs ignore until it’s too late — their health. We talk about how your muscle isn’t just for looks; it’s the organ of longevity and focus. You’ll learn how strength training rewires your brain for better decisions, how to eat for sustained energy (not quick crashes), and how to build habits that actually stick even when you’re slammed. We also tear down some of the worst health myths entrepreneurs still believe. If you’ve ever said “I’ll focus on my health when I have more time,” this episode will change that.

  • Business Expert: The BEST Way To Make Millions In Profit | Mike Michalowicz

    Most entrepreneurs run their business backwards — revenue first, expenses second, profit last. In this episode, I sit down with Mike Michalowicz, the guy who literally wrote the book on profit ("Profit First"), to flip that formula on its head. Mike shares how to take control of your cash, build a business that runs without you, and turn financial chaos into consistent profit. We dig into why chasing revenue kills margins, how to instantly boost cash flow by focusing on your best clients, and why underpricing keeps you stuck. If you’re tired of feeling broke in a business that’s “doing well,” this one’s for you.
