In this episode of The L3 Perspective, Cam and Glenn welcome you into their brand new studio for a raw and real conversation about transition, trust, and what it actually takes to build something from nothing.


From engineering a one-of-a-kind modular studio backdrop that doesn't exist anywhere else in the country, to reflecting on the partnership that made it all possible … this episode pulls back the curtain on the L3 story and where it's headed next.


This isn't just about a new space. It's about what gets built when two people show up with aligned values, honest communication, and a shared commitment to seeing each other win.


In this episode, you'll hear about:
The story behind a studio backdrop nobody else has built
Why trust matters more than seeing the full vision upfront
What their partnership is really built on
How visibility is driving the next chapter of L3 Media
Why now is the time to start telling your story


Here’s the takeaway, Stop waiting for the right conditions. Build the room … and let the vision follow.

In this powerful episode of The L3 Perspective, we sit down with entrepreneur, content strategist, and Entrepreneur Experience founder Terry Griffin to discuss one of the biggest challenges business owners face today: visibility.


Terry shares his journey from attending conferences across the country to building the Bay Area's largest entrepreneur conference. What started as a vision inspired by his late cousin evolved into a movement designed to help entrepreneurs gain exposure, build meaningful connections, and grow their businesses.


We dive into the realities of entrepreneurship, overcoming fear, investing in yourself, the importance of collaboration, and why consistency matters more than talent alone. Terry also breaks down how entrepreneurs can become more visible in today's digital landscape and why some of the most talented business owners remain undiscovered.

In this episode of The L3 Perspective, Cam and Glenn sit down with world-renowned sculptor Mario Chiodo for a powerful conversation about creativity, resilience, purpose, and the responsibility we all have to leave the world better than we found it.


From a childhood marked by color blindness and a deep fascination with storytelling, to creating some of the most impactful monuments and sculptures in the world, Mario shares the journey that transformed a young boy sculpting figures out of backyard mud into an artist whose work inspires millions.


This conversation goes far beyond art. It's about vision, persistence, leadership, and what happens when you refuse to let rejection define your future.


In this episode, you'll hear about:

• How color blindness shaped the way Mario sees humanity
• The childhood experiences that sparked a lifelong passion for creating
• Why rejection is often proof you're moving in the right direction
• The lessons behind building the iconic Remember Them monument
• How great leaders turn purpose into action
• The connection between creativity, business, and lasting impact
• Why peace begins with understanding our shared humanity
• What it means to pursue a calling instead of simply building a career

Here's the takeaway:

The world doesn't need more people waiting for permission. It needs people willing to create, serve, and build something meaningful. Your circumstances don't define your future. Your willingness to keep showing up does.

Sometimes the greatest monuments aren't made of bronze or stone. They're built through courage, purpose, and the impact we leave on others.

In this episode Glenn and Cam sit down with Jonathan Hill, founder of KOL Media, for a conversation about creativity, purpose, entrepreneurship, and the mindset required to build something meaningful from the ground up.

What starts as a conversation about cameras and content quickly becomes something deeper.
Jonathan shares how growing up in New Orleans, navigating life after Katrina, and wrestling with questions of identity and purpose shaped the vision behind his brand. What began as an interest in capturing moments evolved into a larger mission: using media to tell stories that matter, highlight people before they become “big,” and build platforms that serve both business and community.


This episode explores the real journey of a young entrepreneur learning the difference between being a freelancer, a founder, and a true business owner. Jonathan opens up about the importance of systems, mindset, accountability, and proximity to people who are already building at a higher level. He also shares how faith, self-awareness, and purpose have played a major role in his growth as both a creative and a leader.


At the heart of this conversation is one powerful idea:

YOUR MOMENTS MATTER!
Not just the big wins.
Not just the viral moments.
But the quiet, meaningful moments that shape who you are and why you keep going.
If you’re building a brand, growing a business, or trying to understand how your gift connects to a bigger purpose, this conversation will challenge and encourage you.


In this episode, you’ll hear about:
-How Jonathan’s journey from New Orleans shaped his vision
-The origin and mission behind KOL Media
-The difference between freelancing, entrepreneurship, and business ownership
-Why systems and structure matter if you want to scale
-How purpose and faith can sharpen creative direction
-The mindset required to get out of your own way
-Why the small moments often matter more than the public milestones
Core takeaway:
Your gift is not random.
Your vision is not accidental.
And the work you’re building may be about more than you think.
