Most investors miss these deals—here's how Rich turns “trash leads” into big profits. Most wholesalers toss leads that don't fit the typical model. But Rich Wonders figured out how to close over 20 deals a month from the same “dead leads” most people ignore. In this episode, I dive deep into Rich's unique novation strategy, how he qualifies sellers, why small towns are goldmines, and what he does differently to make sellers love the process. If you're tired of chasing cold leads or spending more than you make on PPC, this convo will change the game. I'm all about helping you build a business of freedom and impact—and Rich is living proof it's possible when you simplify, systematize, and focus on what actually works. --------------------- Quotes from the Episode: "Simple scales, fancy fails. I've built everything around that." "We close 20 to 30 deals a month with leads most people throw away."

In this episode, Ste sits down with Justin Pettit, third-generation rancher and co-founder of Santa Carota Beef, the only ranch in America finishing their cattle on a diet of fresh, upcycled carrots. Justin shares how his family turned a drought and food waste problem into a revolutionary approach to ranching, producing some of the most nutrient-rich, flavorful, and sustainable beef in the country. From feeding up to a million pounds of carrots a day to serving the Wynn Las Vegas and Wolfgang Puck's restaurants, his story is one of grit, faith, and doing things differently. They unpack: The origin story of carrot-fed beef and how it all began on a California ranch What makes carrot-finished beef taste and feel different from grain-fed The real economics and politics of the American beef industry Why small ranchers are vital to the future of regenerative farming Lessons on family, purpose, and finding meaning in hard work This is a conversation for anyone who cares about real food, ethical ranching, and knowing the story behind what's on your plate.

CarrotCast | Freedom, Flexibility, Finance & Impact for Real Estate Investors
Most investors are spending time & money on inbound leads without realizing how much money they're leaving on the table by not making the most of each one. James Hartquist, investor and one of the brains behind Property Leads, has seen what works — and what doesn't — across thousands of real estate investors' businesses nationwide. In this conversation with Carrot's Brady Winder, James breaks down exactly how to maximize ROI from every lead source, how long to stick with a marketing channel before calling it quits, and the follow-up systems top investors use to turn 92% of unresponsive leads into real conversations. You'll also learn how to stay out of “spam-likely” purgatory, the right budget to actually get a deal, and why integrity and speed-to-lead are the ultimate sales advantages. Listen in! Mentioned in This Episode: Find Property Leads in the Carrot Marketplace: https://marketplace.carrot.com/services/property-leads-pay-per-lead/ Free Caller Registry: https://freecallerregistry.com Get the free follow-up sequence: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1VYTWkSxNIuDjCD4pi1sRDMvCK6xtBLl8pwvbn8fWgb8/edit?usp=sharing Key Quotes: “If you're going to wholesale it, just tell them. Make offers with integrity and fully intend to do what you say.” “The investors that win call within 30 seconds. Be the person that's hard to beat to the deal.” “Every lead source works — if you work it long enough to fix the bottlenecks.” “You can't save your way to your first deal. You've got to fund your marketing and go all in.” “People think honesty kills deals, but it actually builds more trust and gets you more contracts.” ➨Our CEO, Trevor Mauch's Entrepreneur Freedom Formula Podcast: https://link.chtbl.com/EFF ➨ Facebook Group for Evergreen Marketing: https://www.facebook.com/groups/officialcarrotcommunity ➨Subscribe to our YT channel: https://www.youtube.com/@GetCarrot ➨Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/getcarrot/ ➨Take a demo of Carrot.com: https://carrot.ly/GQ8I Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

"I had no idea. I didn't know what an HSA was, all the acronyms—HRA, HSA, HDHP, ERISA. I really had to learn all of that." When Tammy Sun pitched her fertility startup a decade ago, the category she was building didn't exist. Investors dismissed it as a lifestyle business, a niche play unworthy of venture capital. After 99 rejections, she raised her first million. Today, Carrot Fertility operates in 170 countries, serving millions in a market that didn't even have a name when she started. This conversation arrives at an inflection point. Women over 40 represent the only demographic having more babies, while one in six couples confronts infertility—a number experts believe vastly undercounts reality since you're only counted if you can afford to seek care. Sun saw these contradictions not as obstacles but as opportunities. Without a male co-founder, without prior startup experience, without even knowing basic healthcare acronyms, she built one of the most valuable fertility companies in the world. Her secret wasn't expertise. It was embracing what she didn't know. "Having a beginner's mind and coming in with curiosity and excitement and imagination around the art of what is possible—I can't think of an area of the world that needs it more now than healthcare", Sun explains. From that first million that was "the hardest million dollars I ever raised" to expanding beyond fertility into what she calls "post reproductive fertility care" with their menopause product—which became their fastest growing product ever—Sun has earned the right to her radical advice about imposter syndrome: "You can totally ignore it. You can pretend like it doesn't exist, and you can just act the way that you feel like you should act." In this episode of Inspiring Women with Laurie McGraw, discover how a non-professional founder transformed a personal fertility crisis into a global healthcare platform. From recognizing that "half of all infertility is related to male factor" to launching Sprints at the nexus of metabolic and fertility care, Sun reveals why the future of women's health isn't about incremental improvements to a broken system. It's about having the audacity to imagine something entirely new. For Tammy Sun, building in the space between naivete and expertise isn't a disadvantage. It's the only way to create categories that don't yet exist. In a world where knowing too much can blind you to what's possible, she's proof that sometimes the best qualification for changing healthcare is not knowing why it can't be changed. Key Insights: Why the fastest-growing fertility demographic reveals everything about modern family planning How embracing ignorance became a competitive advantage in healthcare innovation The hidden truth about male factor infertility that affects half of all cases Why imposter syndrome is a luxury founders can't afford How moving from California to Arkansas changed everything What GLP-1s mean for the future of fertility and healthcare About the Guest: Tammy Sun is the Founder and CEO of Carrot Fertility, now operating in almost 170 countries after starting with 12. Without prior founder experience or healthcare expertise, she transformed a personal fertility journey into a category-defining company. She built Carrot into one of the most valuable fertility platforms globally, expanding from fertility into menopause and metabolic fertility care.

Most of us are searching for happiness in the big moments—the goals achieved, the breakthroughs, the perfect timing. But what if we've been looking in the wrong places? In today's episode of In Your Right Mind, we explore the quiet joy that lives in the smallest details of everyday life. The warmth of water on your hands. The rhythm of chopping vegetables. The way brushing your hair can become an act of reverence. This isn't about romanticizing chores—it's about waking up to what's already here. Joy is not rare. Presence is not a luxury. You don't need to change your life—you just need to notice it. Join me as we remember how to rejoice in the ordinary, and in doing so, discover what it really means to be alive. Because the garden you walk through tomorrow depends on the choices you make today.
Trump versus Higher Education: Are colleges taking the bait? President Trump is using a high-stakes "carrot or the stick" approach to force reform. The stick? Civil rights investigations and taxing massive multi-billion-dollar endowments. The carrot? The Compact for Excellence in Higher Education. Signatories receive priority research grants for adopting merit-based admissions, freezing tuition costs, and protecting Title IX women's spaces from men. Only nine major institutions were offered this deal, and none have signed on as of yet. Critics claim Trump is politicizing federal funding. Don't miss AACS Today, Episode 103!

n this episode, Coach Giovanni Urrutia, along with guests Matt and Brent, delve into the intricacies of motivation through the lens of Self-Determination Theory. They explore the differences between intrinsic and extrinsic motivation, the importance of group cohesion, and how cultural influences shape motivation in military and first responder contexts. The conversation emphasizes the role of leadership in fostering motivation, the significance of understanding one's 'why', and the need for a balance between process and outcome-focused approaches. Practical applications and action items are discussed to help listeners implement these concepts in their own lives.

What are you chasing? A bigger paycheck, a better title, or a new relationship? The world tells us that satisfaction is just one step away—if we can grab the next carrot, we'll finally be happy. But Ecclesiastes 6:7–9 tells a very different story. Solomon, the wealthiest and wisest king of his day, warns that you can have a full life on the outside while remaining desperately empty inside. In this episode of Wisdom for the Heart, Stephen Davey walks us through Solomon's three warnings: a busy life does not equal a fulfilled heart, improving your station does not guarantee true success, and there will always be something else just out of reach. Chasing after “more” not only distracts us from what matters most, it blinds us to the blessings God has already given. The answer isn't to stop working hard or dreaming big. Instead, it's to anchor our joy in Christ rather than in our achievements. Only when we see life as a gift from God and find our meaning in Him will we stop chasing carrots that never satisfy. If you've ever felt restless, disappointed, or unsatisfied no matter what you accomplish, this message is for you. Discover how to trade distraction for peace and emptiness for purpose—by finding contentment in Christ alone. Stephen Davey's newest book, The Disciples Prayer, is available now. https://www.wisdomonline.org/store/view/the-disciples-prayer-hardback

How do you prepare your mindset and create the discipline to be effective every single day? That's what Jeff Velez asked on a recent Ask Jeb episode, and it's the question that separates the pros from the amateurs in sales. Sales is the hardest profession in business. It's the only job where you have to go out and find rejection and bring it home every single day. Every ask you make carries the potential to be rejected at a deep, painful level. That's why we get paid so well. And that's why most people can't hack it. But the ones who do? They've figured out the secret. Find Your Carrot My friend Will Fratini from ZoomInfo nailed it when he talked about what motivates him, or his carrot. His five-year-old daughter once bought him a carrot Christmas ornament, and he carries it with him everywhere as a reminder of why he shows up every day. But here's what matters: Your carrot needs to be specific and tangible. Not some vague "I want to be successful" nonsense. I'm talking about something real. A commission check of X dollars. A boat. Generational wealth through real estate. A college fund for your kids. Think of it like an old-time horse and carriage. You put a carrot on a stick in front of a stubborn horse, and suddenly it'll go forward even when it thinks it can't. That's what your carrot does for you when everyone else is giving up. Your carrot is what pushes you past the point where giving up would be completely justified. It's what separates the best from the rest. The Hard Truth About Sales Discipline Let's be clear about what sales discipline actually means. You have to show up every day and do a certain number of activities. Every. Single. Day. Consistently. And in order to do those hard things consistently, you need that carrot. It's about sacrificing what you want now (which is easy) for what you want most (which requires doing hard things). I want to do things that are easy. But in order to get what I want most, I've got to do things that are hard. That's the entire game. The Scottie Scheffler Example Look at Scottie Scheffler, the PGA golfer. When he makes a bogey, he bounces back with a birdie or better 62 percent of the time. The rest of the field? Less than 18 percent. Why? Because Scheffler is crystal clear about what's important to him. He knows his carrot. He understands what fulfillment means. When something goes wrong, there's no cascade of "everything is wrong." His ego doesn't take a hit because he's focused on what matters most. He picks himself back up, brushes himself off, and keeps moving. But here's what most people don't know: It wasn't always this way. When he first brought on his caddie, Ted Scott, Ted told him straight up: "I'm not working for you unless you get the attitude, temper, and anger under control." Think about that. The caddie refused to work with him unless he fixed his mindset first. That's how important mindset in sales really is. Everything else comes after. Your Visual Cue Go get yourself a carrot ornament. Seriously. Find one on Amazon, hang it in your office, and use it as your visual cue for what matters most. When you're sitting at your desk in the morning trying to get started, or when something has gone wrong and you're trying to bounce back, that carrot will remind you why you chose this soul-sapping profession in the first place. Because maybe the only thing harder than sales is golf. But you chose it. Now own it. The Secret Superpower Here's the bonus that Will dropped that's pure gold: Sometimes your carrot isn't even about you. Sometimes the ultimate sales superpower is genuinely helping someone else be the star of the show. The best sellers in the world don't care about how great their product is. They care about making their customer the hero. If you genuinely believe you're there to help someone else's day get better, you're going to come through. And when you have that extra little carrot hanging th...

You've heard the myth that there are no deals left on the MLS — or that you need a giant budget to compete. But what if the real opportunity is playing both sides of the deal? Today, we hear how Ryan Zolan turned on‑market listings into dual‑paying transactions, leveraging his real estate license to represent himself and collect both agent commission and a wholesale margin. You'll walk away with the exact filters, pitch scripts, and mindset shifts he used to scale 3–5 deals per month (and sometimes more). If you're ready to stop chasing deals and start structuring win‑win offers the others can't see, this is a must‑listen.Mentioned in this episode:Agent/Investors: https://www.agentinvestors.com/Ryan's Skool Community: https://www.skool.com/agentinvestorsTraction by Gino WickmanThink and Grow Rich by Napoleaan HillOutwitting the Devil by Napoleaan HillOne to Many by Jason FriedExtreme Ownership by Jocko Willink & Leif Babin ➨Our CEO, Trevor Mauch's Entrepreneur Freedom Formula Podcast: https://link.chtbl.com/EFF ➨ Facebook Group for Evergreen Marketing: https://www.facebook.com/groups/officialcarrotcommunity ➨Subscribe to our YT channel: https://www.youtube.com/@GetCarrot ➨Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/getcarrot/ ➨Take a demo of Carrot.com: https://carrot.ly/GQ8I Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

After building a rental portfolio of 300 houses and selling 500 turnkey rentals, Xander made a bold move: he downsized his business—on purpose. Most investors are focused on scaling, but Xander saw the writing on the wall—tightening margins, rising rates, and burnout—and chose to pivot. We talked about what signals told him it was time to shift, how he sold off his property management company, and why he's now focused on lean operations and hard money lending. If you want to know how to stay ahead of a shifting market or you've ever wondered whether all the growth is worth it, this is a r conversation you'll want to hear. Mentioned in this episode:Think and Grow Rich – https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/…/think-and-grow-rich/Investor Fuel Mastermind – https://investorfuel.comWize Hire – https://www.wizehire.com)Xander's Carrot Site – https://crofmaryland.com/ Key Quotes:“You've got to look at revenue per employee… Bare minimum should be $300,000 per employee.”“Instead of buying rentals ourselves, we began buying houses, renovating them, and selling them as turnkey rental properties.”“Every business owner on this call… knows everyone wants to make more money. Inflation is real… all these forces hitting at once... There's nothing wrong with scaling back.”“Hard money lending allows us to spend less than 10 hours per deal—and still make solid returns.” About Xander: Alexander Cruz is a Baltimore native, a real estate expert, and the owner of CR of Maryland. Since 2012, he has led the purchase, renovation, and resale of over 1,600 homes across the Baltimore metro area and surrounding counties. With deep local knowledge and a commitment to improving communities, Alexander has built CR of Maryland into one of the most trusted home-buying companies in Maryland. Under his leadership, CR of Maryland helps homeowners sell their homes quickly and easily, offering fair cash offers with no fees, no repairs, and no hassle. Alexander takes pride in offering real solutions to sellers, whether they are facing foreclosure, going through probate, dealing with a vacant property, or simply ready to move on. He lives in Maryland with his wife, Lauren, and their two children. Outside of real estate, he's a dedicated family man who enjoys time on the water, cheering on Baltimore sports, and supporting local service projects. ***Join us live, Thursdays at 11 AM Pacific for the Evergreen Marketing Live Q&A: https://www.facebook.com/groups/officialcarrotcommunity/***Need to grow as a leader?

Ask David: How to Stop Giving a Crap Motivating a Procrastinator . . . and More The answers to today's questions are brief and were written prior to the show. Listen to the podcast for a more in-depth discussion of each question. Today's questions. 1. Chris has a question about Positive Reframing and the Magic Dial. 2. Joe asks: What method would be best to stop giving a crap? 3. Ollie asks: How do you motivate a procrastinating patient to do the hard work of facing the task they've been putting off? 4. Owen asks: Should I complete a full Daily Mood Log each day? 5. Owen also asks: Is it okay to copy the positive reframing from a previous DML when relevant? 1. Chris asks about Positive Reframing and the Magic Dial. Hi David! I'm currently on my third re-read of "Feeling Great" and want to thank you for the positive changes and progress I have experienced in my life as a result of the techniques and information present in the book. My question is, when you use positive reframing, and identify all the advantages of a negative thought, but still decide, "Hey I would still like to reduce my suffering, in spite of all these good things. But I would love to keep the advantages too." Does this mean my conviction for change is not strong enough? Or is this when I should transition to the magic dial technique and try to keep the best of both worlds ? Thank you in advance, Christian David's reply Thanks, do the Magic Dial and you can have it both ways. However, keep this in mind, or perhaps discover it later on. Once you start to challenge your thoughts successfully, and your belief in your negative thoughts diminishes substantially, you may decide to lower your feelings even further, possibly all the way to zero. And at that point, you're probably ready for Relapse Prevention Training as described in the book. The Feeling Great app is free this summer if you're in the US, so that might help you along the trail if needed. Warmly, David Can I use this as an Ask David question on one of our Ask podcasts? d Christian responds Hello David, Thank you for your in depth response, that's really handy. Part of me is really hoping I'll want to lower my ratings even further, but I think as you have outlined many times, honoring my resistance is important if I want to get to that point. It's weird isn't it, I know at an intellectual level I want these things to happen, but at the gut level part of me is still holding on. I would love to use the app, however I'm based in the UK and it isn't available to me, I saw on the FAQ on the website that it may be getting released in other parts of the world soon ? I also hope there will be more and more TEAM-CBT therapists available in the UK in future too ! Absolutely, I would love for my question to be featured in the podcast ! Warm Regards, Christian 2. Joe asks: What method would be best to stop giving a crap? Hey Dr. Burns, Your two most recent webinars have been very helpful, especially Overcoming Perfectionism, yet I still struggle hard with perfectionism. [To be specific, I put a video out there that people enjoyed (internally) and that I spent a month on, only to get mostly ignored, and I feel defeated.] What method would be best to stop giving a crap? Thanks! Joe David's Reply As I have said so often, I don't recommend “methods” for “problems.” I use TEAM, a process. I sometimes have the same problem with media interviews. I am often asked to give three tips on this or that problem, like gaining self-esteem or whatever. For example, a Chinese interviewer asked for “tips” on overcoming depression, like spending more time in nature or more time with friends and the people you care about. I am not happy about such questions, as my answer is that I'm a no tips please type of guy. I have developed many powerful processes for dealing with a variety of common problems. For example, for individual mood problems I find it extremely useful to start out with a partially completed Daily Mood Log, and for a relationship problem a partially completed Relationship Journal can lead to some fantastic and revealing work. But as far as general “tips” for not “giving a crap” if you're struggling with perfectionism, I can only quote what the Buddha said nearly 2,500 years ago: “General tips suck! Give me something specific and real, please!” Best, david 3. How can you motivate someone who procrastinates? Dear David, I have a question but first I'd like to tell you and the team just how much I'm loving the app. Especially since you gave the AI a voice so now we can speak with it rather than typing out responses. Now it feels so quick and easy. Sometimes, I find it can be hard to motivate myself to do the self-help work but talking to the app makes the process effortless. It really does feel like having a friend who's got your best interest at heart, and they're available to talk to you whenever you need them. My question is about the role of therapists when it comes to patient motivation. I was hoping you could clarify why when patients present with anxiety, we know they will predictably resist doing exposure, but as a therapist it is necessary to press the matter. However, when working with a procrastinating patient, they will almost always show similar process resistance (to doing whatever it is they're procrastinating about), but your recommendation (as far as I understand it) is not to push them to do anything. Not to help motivate them to do the hard work. Is there a reason for this difference, or have I misunderstood entirely? Warmest regards, Ollie David's Reply I can make this an Ask David question, and thanks. Appreciate the kind comments. As a therapist working with anxiety or depression, I work out the Outcome and Process Resistance before trying to “help.” So, the depressed patient must agree to homework, and the anxious patient must agree to exposure, in order for us to work together on those problems. This is called Dangling the Carrot, Gentle Ultimatum, and Sitting with Open Hands and sometimes with Fallback Position at the end. If a patient wants help with procrastination, they must agree to the five-minute rule, to get started at a specific time today, even if they don't feel motivated. I see it as the same thing: making the patient accountable and giving the patient free will to decide what they are willing to do—or not willing to do. I would never try to motivate a procrastinating patient! That's not on the menu. However, I can help them get started if they need help, but I the first five things they have to do into simple things taking 15 seconds each, like sit in my chair might be the first step in organizing you desk. Then reaching for a piece of paper that needs filing. Etc. Five minutes work of little things. You might want to listen to / search the podcasts for this process. We'll mention a bit more on the podcast. Warmly, david If I missed it, try again! 4. Owen asks: Should I complete a full Daily Mood Log each day? Hi Dr. Burns, Thank you again for all the incredible content you've been sharing—both the Feeling Good podcast and your Feeling Great videos. You're so engaging and natural on camera, it's hard to believe you were ever camera-shy! The Ask David segments are always a highlight of my Mondays. I just had two quick questions about the Daily Mood Log. I often find it takes me several hours to complete one fully, including the positive reframing. Should I aim to complete a full log each day for maximum benefit, or is it okay to work through one gradually over several days? I often get unrelated negative thoughts while still working on a previous log, which means I can't get to the new ones right away. David's Reply Hi Owen, Yes, you can spread it out for sure. david 5. Owen asks: To speed things up, is it okay to copy positive reframing from a previous DML when relevant, or is it better to start fresh each time? Thanks so much in advance, Owen (assumed name) David's Reply Hi Owen, Yes, you can use previous PR! Will include your questions at the upcoming Ask David podcast. Can we use your first name? david At our next Ask David, we'll start out with this question: 1. Zainab asks: Is friendship a basic human need? What do you think? Yes? No? Maybe? We did a survey among our group in preparation for the next Ask, and it was two “no's” (Matt and David) and one “yes” (Rhonda). So stay tuned next week for the discussion of this question that comes up often in different disguises. For example, we often hear heated proclamations on whether love is an adult human “need.” What do you think about that question? Thanks for listening today! Matt, Rhonda, and David
