  • 011: Victim to Victor | Nick Santonastasso

    Nick Santonastasso is a medical miracle. Not only is he one of four people alive with the rare genetic condition, Hanhart Syndrome, but the inspirational keynote speaker is also an internationally known bodybuilder and fitness model – despite missing both his legs and one arm since birth.

    The high-energy youth shares his amazing story, showing people that anyone can thrive if they have the determination and willpower to go after what they want.

    Nick tried out various sports before finding a passion for wrestling. As a varsity wrestler in his high school, he may not have been the district champion, but he did pack gyms and earn the respect of thousands of total strangers. At the same time, he rose to “Vine” stardom, with a series of zombie prank videos. His social media stardom has since outlived Vine: Santonastasso has shared his life and thoughts on acceptance, positivity, and pushing your limits with millions, gaining the admiration of A-List Celebrities, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, Tony Robbins, and Gary Vaynerchuk. He also partnered with Fox International to promote The Walking Dead via an epic prank on one of the show’s most popular actors, Norman Reedus.

  • 006: From Mormon Missionary to Real Estate Mogul | Sam Newell

    Sam Newell: Real Estate Investor, Top Producing Broker, Fly Fisherman, Family man.

    Sam’s passion lies in income-producing real estate. While attending Brigham Young University studying Construction Management Sam successfully started his own real estate flipping and long-term holding company. As an investor and licensed realtor, Sam has bought and sold, and participated in over 350 Million+ in real estate transactions over the past 11 years. From flipping small homes to developing $35 Million apartment communities, to buying and fixing up existing apartment communities, Sam has vast experience and expertise that has not only benefitted his family and partners but many loyal investor clients as well. Personally, Sam has never made less than a 20% ROI on real estate investments, this is possible through careful planning, research, and execution (and admittedly a little luck and timing). Integrity and expertise are most important to Sam when working with clients and partnerships.

    On a personal note, Sam loves the outdoors and the beauty Utah has to offer. Being a dad to Heidi and Liam is the highlight of his life. Fly fishing and spending time outdoors and teaching his kids to enjoy these passions as well as charity and hard work are his “WHY”. Income-producing real estate is what gets Sam out of bed in the morning in order to produce the lifestyle his family deserves. He currently resides in Lehi, Utah (The Silicon Slopes).

  • 005: Kim Kardashian's "CONTROVERSIAL ADVICE" Shouldn't Be Controversial

    A TikTok posted by Variety gained a ton of attention recently.

    It featured Kim Kardashian, Khloe Kardashian, Kourtney Kardashian, and Kris Jenner offering up advice to women in business.

    Many claimed the advice was "controversial," offensive," or "out-of-touch" – but the hosts of the FIguring It Out podcast can't help but scratch their heads as to why.

    We think it's great advice and – in fact, the Kardashians are great examples of it.

  • 004: Raised in Polygamy with 44 Siblings | Calvin Wayman

    Calvin Wayman grew up a fundamentalist Mormon. Raised in polygamy with 44 siblings, we have to know – why hasn't TLC given this man a show yet?


    About Calvin:

    Calvin Wayman is a regular guy turned author, entrepreneur, and a Millionaire Case Study—where he’s documenting the first story from zero to millionaire “as it’s happening!” In 2015, he was at a dead end. He found himself anxious, depressed, overweight, and in a mountain of debt. Feeling completely unfulfilled, he realized something had to change. He created a new vision for his life, and even with the responsibilities of a wife and a one-year-old, he suddenly quit his day job and decided to go after the life he envisioned. Since then, what he’s accomplished in such a short time has been nothing short of incredible. But it hasn’t been without heartache and pain. He’s known for not hiding the struggle we all go through as human beings, but sharing it openly—inspiring others that they are actually more capable than they can imagine.
