Deep State control over humanity is undergoing an accelerating collapse that will lead to global revolution in 2026 according to Brad Johnson, a popular psychic communicator. He has learned from a variety of non-human intelligences how Deep State efforts to control humanity have been systematically undermined by a host of benevolent off-world actors who are assisting the evolution of humanity from behind the scenes. Deep State factions are now fighting against each other for the limited resources available to them after the interventions of these benevolent non-human intelligences, who are also behind the recent incursion of 3I/Atlas into our solar system which is impacting Earth and Mars in profound ways. Many secrets concerning humanity's true history, the existence of Inner Earth civilizations, giants, and suppressed technologies that will soon be revealed according to Johnson. While there will be increasing disclosures concerning the existence of extraterrestrial life, open contact with alien landings may still take more than a decade to happen (up to 2038). In August 2008, Brad Johnson first began communicating with a Sirian extraterrestrial entity called “Adronis” and has since communicated with other non-human entities, including “Athena” from the Inner Earth and the “Consortium of Infinite Intelligence.” He employs a range of psychic tools to enhance his communication, while ensuring that no deceptive entities compromise his efforts, a common issue among many inexperienced channelers. Johnson has a track record in sharing accurate predictions about future events and is the founder of “Wisdom Nexus” a popular YouTube channel and the “Earth Intelligence Report.”Brad Johnson's website is: https://www.wisdomtransmissions.comHis Youtube Channel is: https://www.youtube.com/@TheWisdomNexusNetworkJoin Dr. Salla on Patreon for Early Releases, Webinar Perks and More.Visit https://Patreon.com/MichaelSalla/
As investors seek alternatives to the stock market, as ETFs make it harder to outpace the market, as awareness for private investments increases, allocations are increasing to non-traditional assets. Over the past decade, and even more so recently, investors have invested more money into privately held Real Estate, Private Credit, and Private Equity. With the right investment strategies, these vehicles offer predictable cash flow with conservative risk. Brad Johnson, Founder and Managing Partner of Evergreen Capital, helps clients preserve and grow capital by investing in proven, cash-flowing alternative investments.

Do Business. Do Life. — The Financial Advisor Podcast — DBDL
Live from Future Proof, I sat down with my friend Dr. Daniel Crosby to talk about the psychology behind the fastest-growing advisors in our industry.Daniel had spent time with a number of Triad members who were doubling, tripling, even quadrupling their firms — and he wanted to understand what was driving that kind of growth. What he found wasn't a secret tactic or marketing hack. It was mindset.In this conversation, we get into what separates advisors who stay stuck from those building thriving, high-growth firms built on belief, culture, and intention. We talk about how mindset drives growth, how language creates culture, and what it really takes to go from being a great advisor to being a great CEO.3 of the biggest insights from Brad Johnson & Daniel Crosby…#1.) Growth Starts with Mindset, Not MarketingI see a lot of advisors use the term “lifestyle practice” as a way to justify staying small. The truth is, that mindset keeps you stuck. If you want to attract top talent and grow something meaningful, you've got to think more like a professional sports team—always recruiting, always building, always chasing the next level.#2.) What Culture Really Means (And How to Build It)Everyone talks about culture, but few people actually define it. To me, real culture lives at the intersection of growth and belief. It's not top-down—it's built through shared language, lived values, and the behavior you model every day. You can't just write it on the wall; you've got to be it.#3.) The Path from Advisor to CEOIf you want to scale beyond yourself, you've got to evolve how you think and lead. I walk through the four stages every advisor goes through—from “advisor in charge” to true CEO—and how each stage requires more structure, more delegation, and a team that's empowered to think, not just execute.SHOW NOTEShttps://bradleyjohnson.com/139FOLLOW BRAD JOHNSON ON SOCIALTwitterInstagramLinkedInFOLLOW DBDL ON SOCIAL:YouTubeTwitterInstagramLinkedInFacebookDISCLOSURE DBDL podcast episode conversations are intended to provide financial advisors with ideas, strategies, concepts and tools that could be incorporated into their business and their life.

Welcome back to another episode of The Richer Geek Podcast. Today we are joined by Brad Johnson, Co-founder and Chief Investment Officer of Vintage Capital. Brad shares how mobile home park investing is quietly outperforming traditional real estate. He breaks down why this niche is attracting serious investors, the powerful tax advantages that come with it, and how it helps solve America's growing affordable housing problem all while delivering steady, long-term returns. In this episode, we chat about… Brad's journey from small rental properties to managing $3B+ in real estate deals Why mobile home parks deliver high yield and low default rates The five classes of mobile home parks and where the best opportunities are How bonus depreciation and cost segregation boost investor returns Smart due diligence tips when buying mobile home parks Why Brad shifted from operator to allocator and what that means for investors How investing in affordable housing creates both profit and purpose Key Takeaways: Mobile home parks are an underrated, recession-resistant real estate play. The stigma keeps competition low and returns strong. Tax incentives can offset a major portion of taxable income. Long-term ownership builds wealth faster than quick flips. Reliable local partners make or break success in this space. You can invest in affordable housing and still achieve strong financial growth.

Brad Johnson is the Senior Regenerative Agriculture Advisor for The Nature Conservancy, where he helps farmers across Idaho and beyond explore new ways of working the land that build healthier soils, stronger operations, and more resilient communities. Brad's path into this work is deeply personal—he grew up on a multi-generational farm in northern Idaho, where as a teenager he saw firsthand how no-till practices could dramatically reduce erosion on the steep, fertile hills of his family's farm. That early “aha moment” set him on a winding path through farming, ranching, research, and even a stint in agricultural sales, before eventually joining TNC in 2019. In this conversation, Brad and I dig into the practical realities of regenerative agriculture—what it looks like on the ground, why it's both promising and challenging to scale, and how trust and relationships are every bit as important as science and technology. He shares stories from TNC's demonstration farms, where producers are experimenting with new biological practices that reduce reliance on fungicides and pesticides, and from high school programs where the next generation of Idaho farmers are already putting regenerative methods into practice. Brad's perspective is grounded in lived experience and a genuine respect for the farmers he works with. Whether you're deep in the ag world or simply curious about how food systems can adapt to a changing climate, this episode offers a clear, hopeful look at what's possible when conservation and agriculture work hand in hand. --- Brad Johnson Regenerative Farming at TNC Full episode notes and links: https://mountainandprairie.com/brad-johnson/ --- This episode is brought to you in partnership with the Colorado chapter of The Nature Conservancy and TNC chapters throughout the Western United States. Guided by science and grounded by decades of collaborative partnerships, The Nature Conservancy has a long-standing legacy of achieving lasting results to create a world where nature and people thrive.

In this episode of Pillars of Wealth Creation, Todd sits down with Brad Johnson to discuss the realities of mobile home park investing. Brad shares how he first tried managing parks from 2,000 miles away, only to realize the inefficiencies of remote operations. Today, he focuses on providing capital to local operators with the infrastructure and systems needed to manage these communities effectively. Mobile home parks are an operationally intensive asset class, essentially functioning like small cities for 100+ families. Success requires strong teams, reliable rent collection, and well-built systems to manage expenses and infrastructure. Brad emphasizes the importance of investing with experienced operators who understand how to grow NOI and sustain communities—rather than newcomers chasing an idea without a plan.

Brad Johnson is the Co-founder of Triad Partners, an organization that helps financial advisors grow their businesses. Before co-founding Triad, Brad spent 13 years at Advisors Excel as a VP of Advisor Development, coaching top financial advisors who managed over $1.5 billion in assets. Brad is also the host of the podcast, Do Business. Do Life, where he interviews thought leaders and helps financial advisors integrate their work and personal lives. Raised on a farm in Kansas, Brad's personal interests include CrossFit, bass fishing, collecting red wine, and supporting children's charities. In this episode we discuss the following: I love the Stoic lesson Brad shared about the prized cup. If we expect our prized cup to never break, we'll be devastated when it does. But if we've already been through the mental exercise of the cup breaking, it can be much easier to stay calm and confident when our prized cups do break. Being an entrepreneur is constantly dealing with broken, prized cups. I loved hearing how Brad tries to apply Jocko's advice for dealing with setbacks by responding with a simple “Good.” Brad's emphasis on seeking out mindset coaching stood out. The best athletes get the most coaching. So it makes sense that we too need regular feedback and mindset coaching to reach our potential. By jumping into the trench himself, Brad is giving himself more opportunities to deal with broken cups. And I love his advice for how we can deal with the broken cups in our lives.

President Trump got the redistricting maps he wanted from Texas, but it may come with a big political price tag. The Democratic Party, so fractured after the 2024 campaigns, suddenly found a rallying issue that washed away many of its own internal divisions - at least temporarily. Brad Johnson of The Texan and Kat Vargas of Howdy Politics join host Jeremy Wallace to break it all down. Plus, Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick called out Gov. Greg Abbott again for his stance against banning all THC products in Texas, further muddying what the Legislature will do in the closing days of the special session of the Legislature. And finally, Texas House Democratic Leader Gene Wu joins the show for a deep dive on how his recent national media attention has helped illustrate how he's had to navigate racism and generational norms in the Asian-American community.

What if the #1 reason you feel burned out is because you're unknowingly doing three completely different jobs?In this solo episode, I break down the Triad Advisor Model—the exact system top firms are using to scale without sacrificing freedom. You'll see why trying to run your practice alone is like running a Chick-fil-A by yourself—taking orders at the register, cooking the food in the back, and delivering it to the table—and how to replace that chaos with a clear, scalable system that frees you up to grow.Most advisors try to grow by doing more, but that path leads to burnout and stalled revenue. Instead, I'll show you how to divide the advisor role into three specialized positions—selling, planning, and service—so you can build a business that grows beyond you.You'll learn how to hire the right people for each role, compensate them for long-term success, and create a repeatable “advisor pod” system you can scale like clockwork.4 of the biggest insights from Brad Johnson…#1.) The 3 Roles That End Advisor Burnout How a Chick-fil-A-style model splits the advisor job into selling, planning, and service—so you stop doing everything yourself and start scaling with ease. #2.) The Process to Hire, Train, and Scale on Repeat A step-by-step system to find the right people, develop their skills, and build “advisor pods” you can copy and paste as your firm grows. #3.) The Personalities That Thrive in Each Role Why matching natural strengths to each advisor seat is the key to efficiency, retention, and a better client experience. #4.) How to Grow New Advisors Without Risking Big Prospects From “never leave an empty seat” to the “reverse shotgun” approach, discover how to groom future selling advisors without putting your top clients on the line.SHOW NOTEShttps://bradleyjohnson.com/130FOLLOW BRAD JOHNSON ON SOCIALXInstagramLinkedInFOLLOW DBDL ON SOCIAL:YouTubeTwitterInstagramLinkedInFacebookDISCLOSURE DBDL podcast episode conversations are intended to provide financial advisors with ideas, strategies, concepts and tools that could be incorporated into their business and their life.

Do Business. Do Life. — The Financial Advisor Podcast — DBDL
Why do most financial advisors keep hiring the wrong people, despite their best efforts?After 20 years in this industry, I can tell you it's one of the biggest challenges advisors face: finding and keeping the right talent. And if you've ever felt like you're stuck with the wrong team, constantly putting out fires, or doing everything yourself… you're not alone.In this episode, I'm breaking down the 3 biggest hiring mistakes that prevent advisors from building a team that scales with them—and how to fix each one. You'll get a behind-the-scenes look at the exact systems we use at Triad to attract top talent, avoid burnout, and buy back your time.3 of the biggest insights from Brad Johnson…1.) Mistake #1 – No Roadmap, No VisionMost advisors try to scale without an org chart, a long-term vision, or a clear team structure. Brad explains why that creates chaos—and how future-casting your growth forces better hiring decisions today.2.) Mistake #2 – You're Using Names, Not RolesIf you're still asking “What should Joe do?” instead of “What role do we need filled?”—you're already behind. This mindset leads to burnout, bottlenecks, and a team full of generalists. Brad breaks down how to flip this, so you're not stuck putting out fires every day. 3.) Mistake #3 – No Clear or Repeatable Hiring ProcessBrad shares Triad's exact step-by-step hiring process—from screening for culture and skillset to a final gut-check interview with trusted team members. You'll also learn why founders should be the last person in the interview room, not the first.SHOW NOTEShttps://bradleyjohnson.com/126FOLLOW BRAD JOHNSON ON SOCIALXInstagramLinkedInFOLLOW DBDL ON SOCIAL:YouTubeTwitterInstagramLinkedInFacebookDISCLOSURE DBDL podcast episode conversations are intended to provide financial advisors with ideas, strategies, concepts and tools that could be incorporated into their business and their life.

Lectric Xpedition Bike: Watch HereWhat if the pain you've buried is the very thing blocking you from becoming the man God created you to be?In this raw and emotional episode, Jerrad sits down with Dr. Brad Johnson—also known as BJ Communicates—to talk about grief, father wounds, and how trauma shapes us more than we realize. BJ shares the heartbreaking story of holding his newborn son as he took his last breath, walking through the fog of loss in his marriage, and later grieving the death of his own father before reconciliation could happen.Together, they unpack how fatherlessness, unprocessed emotions, and generational pain keep men stuck—and why ignoring it doesn't make it go away. They talk about how grief shows up in unexpected ways (like road rage and burnout), why most men lack true friendships, and how healing begins with honest conversations.This episode is an invitation to stop carrying what God has called you to cast—and to believe that the best version of you is on the other side of your pain.What You'll Learn:Why men are emotional—even when they say they're notHow father wounds affect your identityThe power of grief and what it revealsWhat it means to carry trauma in your bodyHow to connect with your wife through emotional check-insWhy men struggle to form deep friendshipsHow generational patterns repeat if we don't interrupt themWhy healing is spiritual—and why it matters for your familyMentioned in This Episode:BJ Communicates' books: Hard Conversations seriesSupport group for grieving dads: Sad Dad“Feelings Wheel” for emotional check-insBook Jerrad to speak: https://www.jerradlopes.comGrab Dad Tired and Loving It: https://amzn.to/3YTz4GB
We all have stories. Some we share openly—and some we bury deep. But what if the very breakthrough we're praying for is hidden behind a conversation we're afraid to have?In this powerful episode of Visibly Fit, I sit down with BJ Communicates—an author, speaker, and communications coach who knows firsthand the weight and freedom found in speaking the truth in love. We talk about the healing power of hard conversations—what they are, why we avoid them, and how they might be the key to living a more authentic, healthy, and whole life.BJ opens up about his personal relationship with his father, what he wishes he'd known before it was too late, and how that loss birthed his compelling urban fiction series designed to reflect our untold stories. We also explore why people hold back in relationships, how to speak up without being overly assertive, and what genuine communication looks like in marriage, parenting, and friendships.If you've ever felt misunderstood, distant from someone you love, or just tired of carrying emotional weight in silence, this conversation is for you. It's about healing from the inside out, restoring relationships, and honoring God through our communication.Let this episode be your permission slip to speak up, lean in, and love betterChapters:[00:00] Podcast Preview[00:38] Podcast Introduction[01:21] Topic and Guest Introduction[04:02] Introduction to Hard Conversations[07:03] BJ's Personal Story with His Father[09:58] Defining Hard Conversations[14:37] Healing Through Communication[16:10] Navigating Conflicting Perspectives[20:10] BJ's Urban Fiction Series Explained[23:45] Why We Can't Move Forward Without Healing[26:14] Inspiration Behind Writing[27:57] Relating to Angel: A Story of Father Wounds[29:35] A Real-Life Breakdown That Led to Breakthrough[32:13] God Gave Us Communication for Connection [34:05] Closing Thoughts and PrayerResources mentioned:
In today's episode of Zen and the Art of Real Estate Investing, Jonathan sits down with Brad Johnson, co-founder and Chief Investment Officer of Vintage Capital. With over $3.3 billion in commercial real estate transactions under his belt, Brad brings a deep well of experience in structuring long-term, risk-adjusted investments, especially in the mobile home park space. Brad's journey into real estate began in his twenties, when he and his friends started buying single-family rentals with profits from a startup. Over time, he transitioned from remote investing to institutional asset management, eventually discovering the opportunity-rich world of mobile home parks. What began as curiosity evolved into a nationwide operation of 2,300 pads. Brad and Jonathan explore what makes mobile home parks uniquely positioned for stable, long-term returns. They discuss the operational demands of the asset class, why infrastructure and capital reserves are essential, and how seller relationships shape acquisitions in this niche market. Brad emphasizes that these often-misunderstood communities fill a critical need in the affordable housing landscape. You'll also hear how Brad built trust with mom-and-pop sellers, scaled a portfolio through reputation and consistent deal flow, and developed the ability to underwrite quickly and confidently. His firm's approach to long-term holds, tax efficiency, and conservative underwriting stands in contrast to the high-leverage, short-term mindset that has tripped up many investors in recent years. Whether you're an experienced investor or exploring alternatives to traditional real estate assets, Brad's perspective highlights the importance of patience, structure, and choosing the right operating partners. In this episode, you will hear: Brad's early path from startup founder to long-term investor Lessons from managing over 2,000 mobile home park pads How infrastructure and reserves impact mobile home park performance Ways reputation and follow-through win deals in tight-knit markets Why tax advantages make long-term holds more attractive The pitfalls of chasing high IRRs with short-term strategies What separates strong operators from struggling syndicators Follow and Review: We'd love for you to follow us if you haven't yet.

Do Business. Do Life. — The Financial Advisor Podcast — DBDL
What if the biggest threat to your culture was the language you use?As your firm scales, the way you talk about the people on your team can either create clarity or chaos. In this solo episode, I share a painful but powerful lesson I learned while building Triad Partners—from an underperforming team member we were too afraid to let go, to 100+ A-players aligned to a clear mission.You'll hear the exact mistake we made, why we had to course-correct fast, and how shifting a single word completely transformed how we hire, lead, and hold people accountable.If you're trying to scale your business without sacrificing your team's trust or performance, this episode is for you.3 of the biggest insights from Brad Johnson …#1.) Why “Family” Sends the Wrong MessageCalling your team a “family” feels inclusive, but it clouds expectations. It creates hesitation when tough decisions need to be made and sends mixed signals about what's acceptable. Replacing “family” with “team” gives you the clarity and confidence to lead with consistency.#2.) Families Blur Boundaries but Teams Require ThemIn a family, you show up no matter what, even when standards slip. But in business, that thinking weakens accountability. Teams work best when expectations are clear, responsibilities are defined, and everyone knows what it means to pull their weight.#3.) Belonging Should Be Earned, Not AssumedIn a family, you belong by default. On a team, you earn your spot by aligning with the mission. This mindset shift helps you attract the right people, foster buy-in, and build a culture where everyone's rowing in the same direction.SHOW NOTEShttps://bradleyjohnson.com/122FOLLOW BRAD JOHNSON ON SOCIALTwitterInstagramLinkedInFOLLOW DBDL ON SOCIAL:YouTubeTwitterInstagramLinkedInFacebookDISCLOSURE DBDL podcast episode conversations are intended to provide financial advisors with ideas, strategies, concepts and tools that could be incorporated into their business and their life.
