    Send us a textWhat if getting hit by a car could be the best thing that ever happened to you? For Jason Yarusi, this seemingly catastrophic moment became the catalyst that transformed his life from angry, unfulfilled NYC bartender to multimillion-dollar real estate investor and mentor.In this riveting conversation with Grant McGaugh, Jason reveals how rock bottom became his foundation for extraordinary success. Born and raised in New Jersey, Jason found himself working dead-end jobs in Manhattan, blaming everyone but himself for his circumstances. Then came the night that changed everything – flying through the air after being struck by a vehicle, his first thought in the hospital was getting back to the job he hated to make rent. This jarring realization forced him to confront a powerful question: would he continue accepting chaos and complaining, or finally take control of his destiny?Jason walks us through his remarkable journey from small, intentional changes to massive transformation. From owning bars and restaurants to helping scale his family's construction business after Hurricane Sandy, he continually bumped against the same limitation – being "the cog in the wheel" that prevented true freedom. Everything changed when he discovered apartment building investing as a solution to the time-freedom problem, building teams and systems that could operate without his constant presence.The conversation delves deep into the mindset shifts that powered Jason's success: understanding the difference between working IN versus ON your business, learning to let go of perfectionism, surrounding yourself with capable team members, and viewing problems as opportunities rather than obstacles. Now with over 30 real estate transactions totaling more than $300 million, Jason shares how his Live 100 program helps others transform their lives through accountability, self-awareness, and strategic action.Whether you're struggling to break free from limiting circumstances or looking to scale your existing business beyond dependence on your personal time, this episode offers actionable insights on building sustainable success.

    From Entrepreneur to Legal Media Mogul: The Rise of Dennis Meador In this dynamic episode of the Stuck In My Mind Podcast, host Wize El Jefe sits down with Dennis Meador, a trailblazer who's shaking up the legal media landscape. Dennis is the founder of the Legal Podcast Network, a platform that is quickly redefining how legal professionals present themselves, grow their practices, and connect with the modern client. From an entrepreneurial journey that started in a troubled childhood to building an industry-changing brand, Dennis shares the wisdom, grit, and creativity that fueled his rise from scrappy startup hustler to visionary legal media mogul. A Journey Forged in Adversity Dennis' story begins in stark circumstances. Growing up surrounded by poverty and hardship, where his mother's associates were often on the wrong side of the law, he developed a keen sense for business and people out of sheer necessity. By 14, Dennis was already orchestrating local “gig economy” ventures—managing lawn mowing, raking, snow shoveling, and paper routes—discovering early that assembling opportunity for others could be more profitable than doing the jobs himself. This street-smart approach to entrepreneurship would become a hallmark of his future endeavors. Breaking Into Legal Marketing Although Dennis' initial foray into business was far from the legal world, he eventually found himself in legal marketing, initially hesitant about working with attorneys. However, he was drawn in by the logical, debate-driven mindset of lawyers and discovered he could connect with them through reason rather than emotional sales tactics. This unique relationship and appreciation for attorneys' logic-based approach inspired Dennis to consider how he could further serve this niche. The Spark Behind Legal Podcast Network The idea for the Legal Podcast Network was born from Dennis' deep experience in content creation and a transformative podcast project he led in Austin in 2019. By creating high-quality, multi-camera podcasts for musicians, entrepreneurs, and chefs, Dennis quickly found himself at the center of Austin's creative scene, proving that individuals don't have to wait for traditional media— they can be the media. Building on this, and realizing how much attorneys wanted to make their own voices heard (but didn't have the tools or time), Dennis envisioned a full-service, high-impact content platform built specifically for the small law firm. Solving Authority and Content Challenges for Lawyers The Legal Podcast Network goes far beyond just producing podcasts. Dennis and his team offer attorneys a complete content ecosystem: from recording and producing professional-quality podcasts, to extracting and posting 30+ pieces of social and website content per episode, to handling all the distribution logistics for the client. What problem is this solving? Two huge ones: Authoritative Positioning: Attorneys need to stand out in a sea of sameness. Most have generic, template-based websites; the Legal Podcast Network offers engaging, highly relevant content that instantly elevates their credibility and expertise. Content Overwhelm: Producing consistent, high-quality digital content is a massive time drain—especially for small firms. With Dennis' platform, lawyers can simply show up for a short recording session and reap the rewards of a month's worth of expertly repurposed material. Why Storytelling—and Podcasting—Matters for Attorneys In an era when trust and expertise are the new currency, Dennis argues that audio and video content are exponentially more powerful than written articles for building credibility. Podcasting is uniquely accessible: clients can consume episodes passively on the go, and attorneys can showcase not only their knowledge, but also their authenticity and personal style. Whether aiming to attract direct clients, impress referring peers, or establish industry thought leadership, podcasting creates a lasting advantage—especially for smaller law firms unable to outspend larger competitors on traditional advertising. Myths Busted and Misconceptions Addressed One major misconception Dennis addresses is that podcasting is a massive time commitment for attorneys. In reality, with the right support, attorneys can invest just 30–45 minutes monthly and receive an entire suite of content. The platform's done-for-you approach makes professional podcasting accessible even to legal professionals who aren't seasoned public speakers or media personalities—the only requirement is a willingness to answer client-centric questions candidly and clearly. Challenges of Scaling a Vision While launching the Legal Podcast Network was straightforward for this veteran entrepreneur, scaling the business presented significant operational hurdles—especially building the right systems, onboarding processes, and infrastructure to serve a rapidly growing roster of demanding clients. Dennis shares how careful, measured growth and continuous improvements in client communication were key to maintaining a high-quality customer experience and reputation. Surprising Successes and Powerful Results Unexpectedly, the platform has attracted interest not just from attorneys, but also from other legal industry service providers and even rival marketing agencies eager to outsource podcasting production to Dennis' team. This validates the company's innovative model and broad appeal. Moreover, the stories Dennis shares highlight how clients are already seeing enhanced visibility, authority, and client engagement from their podcasts, as their content surges in online search results—and even catches the attention of colleagues and potential referrers in other states. Advice for Niche Media Entrepreneurs Dennis closes with advice for anyone building a specialized media platform: reverse-engineer your service from the client's real needs, listen closely to their pain points, and address objections proactively. He reveals how he continuously refines his sales and product approach, stays abreast of digital trends by “living in the algorithm,” and focuses on delivering tangible results for a tightly defined audience. The Future of Legal Marketing—and Beyond Looking ahead, Dennis sees podcasting and multi-platform content as a rising standard in legal services marketing, driven by generational shifts in media consumption habits. While not every lawyer will become a podcaster, those who embrace this model now will be well-positioned for the future as Generation Z and Alpha increasingly turn to podcasts and social video for information and decision-making. Dennis also teases new projects, like his forthcoming show “BAM: Building Authority through Media,” combining his knack for storytelling with a touch of nostalgia and a focus on marketing education. Key Takeaways: Authenticity Wins: Modern clients crave transparency and real expertise. Podcasting allows lawyers to show, not just tell, what sets them apart. Small Firms, Big Impact: Legal practices with small budgets can outmaneuver big competitors by dominating digital platforms with the right strategy. Done-For-You Is the Future: Time-starved professionals benefit from plug-and-play content solutions rather than doing it all themselves. Niche Focus is Essential: Serving a tightly defined client base—and speaking directly to their needs—drives authority, respect, and premium business. Podcasting is Here to Stay: As media consumption habits evolve, multi-format content production (especially audio and video) will be a key marketing pillar for service professionals. Tune in to hear Dennis' inspiring story, practical advice, and his bold vision for the “new media” age in professional services. Whether you're a lawyer, entrepreneur, or media enthusiast, this episode is packed with insights and actionable strategies for standing out in any crowded marketplace.

You know, it's not fun." – Tom [35:47] “Change the budding addiction, the passive aggressive nature with your wife and kids that is destructive in the family, your financial irresponsibility, before you have to.” – Tom Our Guest Tom Hagerty is a seasoned business strategist, speaker, and author with over 45 years of executive leadership experience across multiple industries.

    Bible Discussion: Many believers struggle with the idea of living financially off the calling God has given them—whether it's in ministry, business, or good works—but Scripture makes it clear that God intends for His people to be fully supported in their entrepreneurial calling. If you don't expect to live off your calling, you won't; faith operates through expectation, and that expectation must be shaped by God's Word. Just as the Levites were financially supported to serve full-time in the temple, believers today who are called by God should also be compensated so they can devote themselves fully to their assignments. God pays well, and when we obey His calling without complaint, He provides not only for our needs but also for our desires. Whether you are preaching, leading a business, or serving your community, if it is your primary calling, then it is God's will for you to live off it.
