Andrew Bolton once asked how to forward an email. Today he is the CEO of a technology company that rescues businesses from their own tech.

Most people chasing wealth start with the wrong question. In this episode of The Heir's Path, TechRescue CEO Andrew Bolton and Danny Verdejo unpack why "I want to be rich" is the wrong thing to aim at, how artificial intelligence works more like a chainsaw than a magic wand, and what it takes to build a company that genuinely serves the people it touches.

Andrew's path runs from near total technical illiteracy to leading a business built on customer service. Along the way he learned that tools do not create outcomes, judgment does. He makes the case that AI is powerful and completely indifferent, that it will cut through whatever you point it at, and that the operators who win will be the ones who know what they are actually trying to build in the first place.

Topics covered:
- Why "I want to be rich" is the wrong question to start with
- AI as a chainsaw, powerful, fast, and indifferent to your intent
- Going from asking how to forward an email to running a tech company
- Building a business where customer service is the actual product
- What most entrepreneurs get wrong about tools versus judgment

What happens when a cancer survivor starts questioning the one thing everybody else takes for granted?

In this episode of The Heir's Path, Savio Clemente sits down with Danny Verdejo to trace the road from diagnosis to a life rebuilt around intentional wellness. Savio is a two-time survivor, and he is direct about the part most wellness conversations skip: facing mortality does not hand you clarity, it hands you a choice about what to do with the time that is left.

The conversation moves past routines and into the assumptions underneath them. Savio makes the case that most people optimize the visible layer, the workouts and the diet, while leaving the emotional layer untouched, and that the emotional layer is the one that determines whether any of it survives a hard season. He describes the exact moment it switched for him, three words long, in a hospital bed.

They talk about what genuinely investing in your health looks like when it stops being aspirational and starts being structural. Daily practices that hold up under pressure. Why healing is not linear. And the connection Savio draws between personal wellness and the capacity to build anything lasting, financially or otherwise.

It is a conversation about health as the asset that makes every other asset usable.

Topics covered:
- How surviving cancer twice reshaped his entire perspective on health
- The assumption about wellness that almost nobody questions
- Self-regulation, psychological distancing, and staying steady under pressure
- Why healing is not linear, and what that means day to day
- What legacy actually is, and why a bio is not it

Just a few years before Cindy Morris was born, it was illegal for her mother to have her own checking account. That is how recent the rules changed. And it still shapes how women are taught to think about money, power, and asking for more.

In this episode of The Heir's Path, Cindy Morris and Danny Verdejo dig into self-efficacy, the belief that you can make change, and why community is the multiplier that turns that belief into results. Cindy has spent her career in mission-driven work, raising money for causes and teaching women to raise their own expectations, and she is blunt about the patterns she keeps seeing: women who were never taught to ask, networks mistaken for mixers, and workplaces that still price women's work below its value.

They talk about what community-first actually means in practice, why individual giving is quietly dropping and what that signals, and what it takes to feel safe enough to be genuinely vulnerable. Cindy also talks about the identity underneath all of it: before she is anything else, she is a mom.

Topics covered:
- Self-efficacy: the belief that you can make change, and how it is built
- Why women were never taught to ask for money
- Networking is not a mixer: relationships that actually hold
- What the drop in individual giving says about community
- Safety, vulnerability, and learning to fall fast
