September 16, 2021047: The Habits of Highly Effective Leaders with Brad Lomenick
When you’re looking at the qualities it takes to be a great leader, it’s easy to get lost thinking it’s about what other people are doing for you. But it’s actually about how you can provide value to other people.
To better understand the most important habits of highly effective leaders, I’m speaking to Brad Lomenick. Brad is a leadership consultant, founder of BLINC, host of the H3 Leadership podcast, and has worked alongside thought-leaders such as Jim Collins and Malcom Gladwell, Fortune 500 CEOs and start-up entrepreneurs.
In our discussion, you’ll hear us talk about his new book, H3 Leadership: Be Humble. Stay Hungry. Always Hustle—a practical road map for implementing and living out 20 transformational habits of a leader. Not only are humility, hunger, and hustle important, but Brad explains why they have to work in parallel in order to be effective.
You’ll also learn what it takes to build strong relationships, how to leave a positive impression in the minds of the people you meet, what it was like working with John Maxwell, and why travel and connecting with people from different walks of life can make you a better leader. That, and much more!

September 09, 2021046: Daniel Alonzo on Building a Highly Scalable Business and Living Life on Your Terms
Even the most driven of us are sometimes forced to swerve from our goals when life takes an unexpected turn. And although it might seem like the end of the world at the time, it could also be a major opportunity.
Today’s podcast guest, Daniel Alonzo, started in financial services when he was 21 — and was a millionaire by 28 — but that wasn’t his original plan. His dreams of becoming a baseball player were dashed by an injury. Prior to that, he admits, he was a “bad kid,” whose pastimes included breaking into people’s cars, and stealing whatever was loose inside.
Little did Daniel know that one of these incidents would set him on the path to success. Inside a stolen boombox was a cassette tape by Jack Canfield of “Chicken Soup For the Soul” fame. The tape was called “Self Esteem & Peak Performance,” and listening to it changed Daniel’s perspective on life. It helped him find focus and set goals.
One of those goals was to retire by the age of 30, and he certainly could have done it. By that age, he was generating enough wealth through recruiting other people that he didn’t have to work another day of his life. Of course, he didn’t stop there!
Today, Daniel is a coach, entrepreneur, media personality, podcaster, and author of the forthcoming book, Wealth on the Beach. He speaks in front of hundreds of thousands of people a year, teaching them how to create financial freedom and live a better life.
In our conversation, Daniel tells me why building relationships is the secret to success, why he chose not to retire, and how he built a highly scalable business that allows him to live an extraordinary life on his terms.

September 02, 2021045: Creating Passive Income with Residential Real Estate with Marco Santarelli
When you have your mind set on achieving financial freedom, it’s easy to get impatient. But you can’t start generating wealth-building passive income overnight.
Marco Santarelli is the CEO and founder of Norada Real Estate, and host of the Passive Real Estate Investing podcast. He bought his first property at 18, laying the foundation for what became his ticket to long-term wealth: residential real estate.

On this episode, you’ll learn from Marco’s fascinating path to becoming a nationwide real estate mogul. He shares advice for people getting started in the real estate industry, and explains why you should choose steady income over gambling on one big pay day.

August 12, 2021042: Mike Michalowicz on How to Profit First and Successfully Scale Any Business
By his 35th birthday Mike Michalowicz had founded and sold two multi-million dollar companies.
Confident that he had the formula to success, he became an angel investor. But to his surprise, what he thought he knew about building a successful company, was all wrong — which led to him losing his entire fortune.
He lost his house, his cars, and even had to tell his 9 year old daughter that her horse riding lessons were no longer affordable.
Driven to find better ways to grow healthy, strong companies, he created the Profit First system — which is now used by hundreds of thousands of companies across the globe to drive real profit.
Since starting over, Mike has built two new multi-million dollar ventures and has had 52 consecutive quarters of profit distributions for his businesses.
In today’s episode, Mike explains how he lost everything betting on seemingly successful companies, the problem with growing a business too slow or too fast, and the simple formula that leads to a truly profitable and successful business!

July 29, 2021040: Tony Cappell on De-Risking the Deal and Earning Higher Returns
Today, I’m speaking with Tony Cappell. Tony is the Principal and Co-founder at Chicago Atlantic Group — a private market investment firm combining deep expertise with an entrepreneurial approach to multi-asset class investing.
As a debt investor with over 10 years of experience in the specialty finance space, Tony has completed over 150 deals comprising over $5B in total credit.

Tony is an unbelievable source of information when it comes to understanding loan and fund structure. He knows exactly what to look for when it comes to protecting the downside and mitigating risk.

And today, you’ll hear us talk all about it! We dig into debt structure, strategies for de-risking a deal, how to negotiate better terms with things like equity kickers and liquidation preference, and why regulatory arbitrage is creating a massive opportunity in the cannabis industry. That, and a whole lot more!

July 22, 2021039: JP Newman on Making a Real Impact with Real Estate
Today, I’m speaking with JP Newman. JP is the Founder and CEO of Thrive, FP — a relationship based private equity firm focusing on real estate projects that make a real impact. Their focus is on generating profit for investors, while also improving tenant communities for the greater good.

Few businesses strive to create prosperity, but JP’s company is proof that it’s possible to invest with purpose and create wealth and success where everyone succeeds.

July 15, 2021038: Dr. David Phelps on Creating Freedom with Real Estate Investing
From a very young age, we’re taught that in order to earn money, there has to be an exchange of time. To make more, you have to work more. The problem is, there’s only 24hrs in a day, so the earned income model completely limits how much money you can make.
Sure, you can level up by making a higher hourly wage or working more hours, but beyond that, you’re stuck.
As a result, people will settle for mediocrity. They end up building a lifestyle around what they get paid, rather than building their pay around the lifestyle that they truly want.
It’s a trap! One that most people don’t know how to escape. Which leads me to today’s episode of the podcast…
I’m speaking with Dr. David Phelps. David worked on the dental practice hamster wheel for over 20 years before being punched in the gut by his daughter’s life-threatening battle with leukemia, epilepsy, and a liver transplant — all before the age of 12.
Fortunately, he had a Plan B! While still in dental school, David began investing in real estate by joint-venturing with his father on their first rental property. Three years later, they sold the property and David took his $25,000 capital gain share and leveraged it into 31 properties that produced $15,000 monthly net cash flow.
Today, he’s a nationally recognized speaker on creating freedom, building businesses and investing in real estate. And his journey to create passive income and live for what matters most has inspired audiences across the nation.
In our conversation, he makes it very clear why he believes the conventional idea of earned income and the “working to live” mindset is completely broken. You’ll hear us talk about all things real estate; how to buy properties that cash-flow on day one, the secret to getting seller financing, how to structure a deal on YOUR terms, and much more!
You’ll also learn why the nest egg approach to investing is incredibly flawed, and what you can do to avoid the trap of earned income!
