It's official. The show has a name: The Headwaters Project.

Headwaters - the source, where the river begins, upstream, foundational. That's what this show is about. Getting to the source of things. Real relationships. Real value. No BS.

Meet Ben Nelson - the man behind it all:

• Partner at Wild Oak Capital (1,000+ doors, $100M+ under management)
• Lives in Golden, Colorado
• Produced world records for Red Bull and Nitro Circus
• Meets investors on ski lifts - "adventure-based capital raising"
• Philosophy: "We want to work with people that want to do life with us"

Ben is a giver. A servant leader. No hidden agenda. If you vibe with him, you'll engage. If not, no hard feelings.

This show is different. Authentic from the first click.

Welcome to The Headwaters Project.

In this episode, Ben breaks down his mindset framework:

• There's never a right time - You are the designer of your life
• Don't let others project their beliefs on you - Course correct back to YOUR truth
• Success and failure are both temporary - Business is a game. Play long enough and you'll figure it out
• Talk to yourself - Catch negative thought cycles and reaffirm with truth
• Visualization - Create things twice: first in your mind, then in reality
• The Alter Ego / Superhero Effect - Kobe had Black Mamba. Bo Jackson used Jason Vorhees. What's yours?
• Train and Trust - Put in the work, then trust yourself when it's time to perform

Wild Oak Capital now manages 1,000+ doors and $100M+ in assets. This is how Ben thinks.

Ben Nelson spent 15-20 years producing action sports events for Red Bull and Nitro Circus, racking up multiple world records along the way.

Racing trucks in Maine winters. Building things that were "harder to build."

Then he did the math on his 401k. It didn't work.

So he and his brother Eric bought two quadplexes in Lubbock, Texas. Today they run Wild Oak Capital – over 1,000 doors, $100M+ under management, value-add multifamily across Oklahoma, Arkansas, and Texas.

Ben still lives in Golden, Colorado. He still meets investors on ski lifts. His philosophy: "We want to work with people that want to do life with us."
