The Iron Deep Podcast

Our health and how we feel is a very simple recipe to follow. Exercise daily, eat natural food, and practice habits that stimulate your mind and body. Doing all these isn't exactly easy though. Dr. Michael Pierce joined me on the podcast this week to discuss our health, how to establish healthy habits, and why so many of us have health problems to begin with. 

Entrepeneurship is very seldom something that you learn on your own. Becoming an entrepreneur and learning how to be one is a skill you most likely learned from a parent, grandparent, or authority figure in your life. Patrick Grayson is a 3rd generation real estate investor and he shares with us how his father and grandfather taught him the skills necessary to be successful as an entrepreneur. We learn how to balance work and family, how to teach your kids about entrepreneurship, and listen to some pretty good stories as well.

A lot of people use the saying "God's Plan". The phrase was so popular that rapper Drake even made a song titled that. How many people actually mean that they are trusting in God's plan though? In today's podcast episode, I talk with filmmaker/director Jason North who is part of the team at Iron Deep about how God's plan is always better than ours. Jason tells his story of how he got to where he is and how God's hand was in every step of the way. Listen in as we talk about startups, entrepreneurship, and trusting God in the midst of struggle and grief. 

Have you ever felt like these personality tests just know you so well and understand why you do the things you do? Have you tried to explain an action you did by some random letter and number combination that a personality test told you that you were? Well Jarrod Hanning, founder of the MindScan, joins us on the podcast this week to talk about how individuals and business leaders can increase their productivity, effectiveness, and so much more by taking this test. We learn how the Mindscan works, why personality tests can be traps, and how your thought process is limiting your potential.

Sep is a faithful servant who makes sure to put quality time with God at the start of his day every single day. We go over why spending quiet time with God is so important, how to stay consistent in your faith, and what it means to be a Christian business owner. 

Are you making marginal returns on your real estate investments and tired of having to work so hard for them every single time? Land development expert Cody Bjugan joins me on the podcast this week, where we discuss how to make 6-7 figures on every deal you do in real estate through the buying and selling of land. Cody and I cover his strategies, why money isn't the end goal in his business, and how wholesaling and land development are different. For anyone wanting to take that next step in real estate investing and has the capital to do it, I highly encourage watching this podcast and learning how to beat the recession.

We also dive into questions that everyone should be asking themselves about where they find their happiness. Join in to hear Brad's story and learn from his before it's too late to change yours. 

Life is not all about money, experiences, or the things we own. These "things" are nice to have but what do you ultimately want to accomplish through working? Recent author Nathan Brooks joins us on the podcast again where we go over his new book "The No Quitters Guide to Crushing Real Estate Investing and Building an Extraordinary Life". We go over why Nathan does what he does, putting your mind to anything, and setting big goals!

The decision and process of whether or not to start a business and how to do it are some of the most pressing questions that entrepreneurs face.
