The Law Of Reciprocity In Business And Life - EP 213

55 minutes

In this episode of the Spinoso Podcast, I dive deep into the Law of Reciprocity—what it is, how it shows up in life and business, and the mindset shifts required to keep your heart open even when the world doesn’t always give back. I share stories from my own entrepreneurial journey, how I’ve been burned, how I’ve given too much, and how I’ve learned to keep giving anyway—without expecting anything in return. My co-host Amanda joins me for a real, raw conversation about how generosity and boundaries coexist, and how we keep going even when the ROI isn’t immediate or obvious.

We talk about the hard truth that being a business owner—or a parent—isn’t always rewarding in the moment. You give time, energy, love, money, resources… and sometimes people leave, fail to appreciate it, or never change. But we also explore the deeper fulfillment that comes from playing the long game, staying true to who you are, and letting karma—or energy, or flow—handle the rest. Whether it’s building a team, raising kids, or dealing with clients, reciprocity isn’t a formula. And that's why you have to give because it’s who you are, not because you're trying to get something back.

If you’ve ever been tempted to stop giving because you feel drained or taken advantage of, this episode is your reset. Amanda and I break down how to stay generous without becoming resentful, how to lead without being soft, and how to build a life and business that reflect who you truly are. It's not always easy—but if you stay open, aligned, and unattached to the outcome, the right people, opportunities, and results eventually show up.
