October 26, 2025 How I Earned $500k While on Vacation

What if your business could make half a million dollars… while you were on vacation?

In this episode, real estate entrepreneur Dean Rogers shares how he built a business that earned $500K in 32 days while he was completely unplugged, spending time with his family in Hawaii. Dean opens up about how he went from being tied to every part of his company to finally creating a self-sustaining, system-driven business that runs without him.

Alongside Stratton Brown, the two dive deep into how entrepreneurs can scale their income and freedom simultaneously, breaking down the systems, leadership principles, and mindset shifts that separate high earners from high performers.

Whether you’re building your first business or looking to step away from day-to-day operations, this episode will teach you how to design your company for profit, freedom, and peace of mind.

✅ How Dean earned $500K while on vacation.
