No AI digital twin — ever. In a world of deepfakes and clones, I’m drawing a hard line: every video, podcast, and post with my name is 100% me — live and in the flesh. AI streamlines my systems. But it will never replace my voice, face, or spontaneity.  

This is my contrarian brand promise: trust over convenience, authenticity over automation.  If you’re done with the blur, this is your signal. Subscribe & leave a 5-star review on Apple and Spotify to back the real ones.

Most people want wealth but few are willing to pay the price.

In this episode, I sit down with Dan Henry — entrepreneur, investor, and bestselling author — to unpack how he went from delivering pizzas and sleeping in a freezing apartment to building a $35 million business.

The turning point? A single question he asked a billionaire that changed everything.

We dive into the three most powerful forms of leverage — labor, code, and audience — and how your personal brand is the ultimate multiplier. Because when you learn how to turn attention into trust and trust into opportunity, your brand becomes an asset that works even when you don’t.

You’ll hear:

• How leverage works in the real world and how to build it piece by piece
• Why your personal brand is more valuable than any business card or degree
• The mindset shift between wanting wealth and being willing to earn it
• What separates people who say they want success from those who sacrifice for it

If you’ve ever wondered what separates dreamers from builders, this conversation will make it crystal clear: it’s leverage… and the price you’re willing to pay for it.
