What happens when two successful entrepreneurs stop talking about real estate tactics and start getting real about the mental game of building wealth?
In this raw, unfiltered conversation, Jesse Vasquez sits down with Amelia McGee (co-founder of Wire Community) for what turns into one of the most honest discussions about entrepreneurship you’ll hear this year.

In this episode, we dive deep into:
• Why it’s actually easier to make $10,000 than save it (and what that means for your mindset)
• The trap of playing “humble” and how it’s keeping you small
• Why Jesse fired himself as CEO (and why you might need to do the same)
• The loneliness of success: when your family doesn’t get what you do
• How to know if you’re a visionary vs. an operator—and why it matters
• The obsession and momentum required to scale from 1-2 properties to financial freedom
• Building community as a business strategy (and why it’s your secret weapon)
• The brutal truth about delegation: when that $100K hire is actually costing you money NOT to make
• Self-talk, mental health, and why successful entrepreneurs are so hard on themselves

This isn’t your typical business podcast. No rehearsed talking points, no product pitches—just two friends who’ve built successful businesses having the conversation they wish they’d heard when they were starting out.
Perfect for: Real estate investors, online coaches, entrepreneurs feeling stuck, anyone who’s ever felt like an imposter in their own business, and people ready to shift from scarcity to abundance mindset.

Guest: Amelia McGee - Real estate investor, co-founder of Wire Community (women’s investing education platform), and small-town Iowa entrepreneur building a multi-million dollar business.
