CASE STUDIES

In this solo episode of Case Studies, Casey explores one of the most influential principles of his life: keeping learning ahead of earning. Drawing from more than two decades of intentional self-education and over a million dollars invested in personal development, he shares why the greatest asset anyone can build is their own ability to create value.  

Casey reflects on the mentors, books, seminars, and experiences that shaped his career, from early lessons in sales and leadership to executive education at Harvard Business School and transformational experiences with Tony Robbins. Along the way, he unpacks the concept of human life value, the power of Kaizen and continuous improvement, and why the habit of learning matters far more than any individual investment.

Casey challenges listeners to think differently about personal growth and success. He makes the case that the highest-return investment is rarely a stock, a business, or a market opportunity; it’s the commitment to continuously develop new skills, expand knowledge, and increase your ability to create value. For entrepreneurs, leaders, and high performers, this episode offers a practical framework for building a life of momentum, opportunity, and long-term fulfillment through intentional learning.

In this episode, Casey sits down with Chris Crittenden, entrepreneur, educator, and co-founder of Sandbox, for a conversation on courage, innovation, and rethinking what education should be. From selling a startup to Walmart to leading at BYU and now building Sandbox into a movement across multiple universities, Chris shares why closing doors and going deep often leads to the greatest returns.

He and Casey explore the flaws of traditional higher education, the trap of chasing prestige, and the power of learning by doing. Chris outlines how Sandbox is equipping students to launch real companies while reshaping themselves in the process. Their discussion dives into resilience, resourcefulness, and why the greatest opportunities often lie off the beaten path.

This episode is both a critique of the old system and a vision for a new one, where students learn through building, failure is embraced as part of the process, and desire becomes the ultimate differentiator.

In this episode of Case Studies, Casey sits down with Mel Torrie, founder and CEO of Autonomous Solutions, for a remarkable conversation on entrepreneurship, faith, resilience, and building one of the world’s leading autonomous robotics companies from the ground up.

Raised on a farm in Canada as the oldest of nine children, Mel shares how long days driving tractors inspired a vision that would eventually lead him to pioneer autonomous technology across agriculture, mining, construction, and logistics. What began as a university research project at Utah State evolved into a 25 year journey filled with setbacks, near-bankruptcies, massive technological breakthroughs, and partnerships with companies like John Deere and SoftBank.

Mel opens up about the painful lessons that shaped his leadership style, why he rejected fear based leadership culture, and how humility became the foundation of his company’s success. He also shares the deeply personal story of losing his son during one of the darkest seasons of his business career, and how faith carried him through unimaginable adversity.

This episode is a powerful masterclass on endurance, optimism, leadership, and believing in a future no one else can yet see.

In this episode, Casey sits down with entrepreneur and investor Matt Mathison to explore how truth, resilience, and purpose define what it really means to thrive. From Wall Street highs to a public collapse, Matt shares how radical transparency, discipline, and faith shaped his comeback and his creation of Allevio, a healthcare platform designed to “empower healing anywhere.”

He unpacks the Thrive Playbook — a practical framework of market tailwinds, operational systems, and maniacal cashflow discipline — showing how great leaders and businesses thrive by aligning people, purpose, and profit. Matt’s story reveals that thriving isn’t about avoiding pain, but transforming it into clarity and action.

For entrepreneurs and high performers, this episode delivers raw lessons on leadership, marriage, and mindset — from rebuilding after loss to creating daily rhythms that keep priorities straight. Through it all, Matt models how truth and love, in business and life, create the foundation for lasting success.

In this episode of Case Studies, Casey sits down with David Butler, teacher, author, and tour leader, for a thoughtful conversation on faith, imagination, and what it means to believe in a God bigger than we often dare to picture.

David shares his story of growing up in Texas, teaching seminary and institute, and navigating a faith journey shaped by encounters with world religions, moments of doubt, and unexpected experiences in places like China and Rome that reshaped his view of God’s reach. He reflects on why the opposite of faith is not doubt but false certainty, and how embracing questions can actually deepen trust.

Together, they explore themes of sin and repentance through fresh lenses, the importance of language in shaping our spiritual lives, and why patience, curiosity, and humility matter in both leadership and discipleship. David also opens up about leading “holy envy” tours, posting weekly reflections that serve as “church” for many, and walking through personal loss while holding onto hope.

This conversation is an invitation to entrepreneurs, leaders, and seekers alike to expand their perspective, embrace the tension of growth, and live with more wonder, courage, and compassion.

In this episode of Case Studies, Casey sits down with Jeff Mendez, a builder, leader, and operator who led a 5,000-person sales force and helped generate over $2 Billion in commissions. His track record has made him one of the most respected operators in the door-to-door industry.

Jeff reflects on his early life in Puerto Rico and the Dominican Republic, sharing how his father’s bold conversion story and a childhood shaped by grit and cultural pride gave him a lasting sense of identity. He walks through his corporate start at Walmart, the discovery that entrepreneurship was his true path, and the moment he chose conviction over comfort. That choice launched an 18-year run at the center of Vivint’s rise.

With sharp insight and zero pretense, Jeff breaks down the principles behind his success: operational excellence, relentless value creation, and why energy, not capital, is the true currency of entrepreneurship. This is a conversation for builders, leaders, and anyone ready to stop playing small and start building something real.
