Welcome to Episode 0 of the Road to Wealth series — a brand-new chapter in the Walk 2 Wealth podcast. In this solo episode, I open the vault and get brutally honest about where I’m at financially. No fluff. No filters. Just the real, raw reality of the entrepreneurial journey.

I talk about how I’ve maxed out my credit cards, drained my savings, and torched my credit — and why I’m choosing now, rock bottom, to document every step of my comeback. You’ll learn what inspired this new series, the goals I’ve set (like becoming debt-free and rebuilding my investments), and how I plan to track my weekly progress with transparency and accountability.

If you've ever felt like you're failing while everyone else is winning, this episode is for you. Let’s stop pretending and start rebuilding — together. This isn’t advice. This is the walk.

In this solo episode, I’m pulling back the curtain and sharing a mid-year update that’s been a long time coming.

As I approach 300 episodes of Walk 2 Wealth, I’ve realized something big: for too long, I treated this show like a hobby—when in reality, it’s my purpose. In this episode, I talk through what’s shifting in my life and business, how my relationship with God is changing everything, and why I’m done playing small.

I also share:

• Why I’ve decided to fully recommit to this podcast
• What sparked the idea behind my new “Journey to Debt-Free” series (yup—I even reveal how much I owe)
• How I’m planning something special for episode 300 (including a short film and a live experience)
• Why faith is now front and center in how I move personally and professionally

If you've ever wrestled with purpose, felt the tension between calling and comfort, or struggled to balance your hustle with your heart—this one’s for you. I’m not holding back. This is me, fully committed and walking in faith.

What do you do after getting scammed three times before the age of 16?
If you're Brandon Nagel — you keep going.

In this episode of Walk 2 Wealth, I sit down with 19-year-old entrepreneur Brandon Nagel, a sophomore at UConn who's already tried and failed at reselling sneakers, dropshipping, invoicing, and even an exotic snack business.

We talk about:

• Why failure is a necessary stepping stone
• How faith and long-term thinking drive his motivation
• Why he’s terrified of the 9–5 life
• The mindset shifts that helped him finally get results
• How he’s learning marketing through Alex Hormozi, Russell Brunson & podcasts

This is the real behind-the-scenes journey of a Gen Z entrepreneur finding his lane through trial and error.

In this episode of Walk 2 Wealth, I reconnect with my good friend and Facebook Ads expert Kwadwo Sampany-Kessie, and we go deep on the real cost of chasing rapid business growth.

From launching a “100 Days to $100K” challenge to nearly doubling his monthly revenue, Kwadwo opens up about what scaling too fast really did to his systems—and his sanity. Spoiler alert: it’s not always about more clients and bigger numbers.

We cover:
✅ How a bike accident led to a massive business pivot
✅ What broke when he scaled to $40K/month
✅ The decision to fire the team and go back to high-touch service
✅ Working with his wife and the beauty (and messiness) of blending business and family
✅ The mindset shift that helped him prioritize stability over vanity metrics
✅ Why courses and email funnels are now his growth play for 2025

This is a masterclass in clarity, alignment, and designing a business that fits your life—not the other way around.

🎯 Whether you're just starting or scaling, this conversation will challenge you to ask: “What am I actually building—and why?
