Julie Hood, why should I pinch 2 fingers together? Julie Hood founded CoursecreatorsHQ.com to help people build online courses to generate passive income. She's also host of the Course Creators HQ podcast. While what Julie does now is quite interesting, I was keen to know more about what she did before becoming a course creation consultant, given that she has a background in computer science and math. Computer science to course creation isn't exactly a straight line, after all. Plus, what's all this pinching fingers together about?

Today I'm talking about Jeff Soelberg, an amputee peer visitor, activist, and founder of the Jeff Giving a Hand Foundation. After losing three of his fingers in an industrial accident, Jeff has become a prominent advocate for amputees and how amputation affects all aspects of a person's life. “Life happens when you adapt,” according to Jeff, and he believes in the resilience of the human spirit. On July 6th, 2016, Jeff was in an industrial accident that resulted in the loss of three of his fingers, along with tendon and nerve damage up to his elbow on his dominant hand. He had been shining a pump shaft when his glove got caught and his hand was pulled in to the wrist. Despite his shock, Jeff was able to instruct his coworkers and the on-site nurse on what to do and was soon taken to the hospital for surgery. Jeff underwent a total of 9 surgeries, 7 of them in the first 9 months. He recalls looking at his hand while waiting several hours in the hospital, knowing that his fingers weren't there but not registering where they were. He describes the shock response as a sort of tunnel vision, and after leaving the hospital he was forced to relearn everyday functions while also dealing with the physical, emotional, and financial toll of his accident. Fingers are medically labeled as cosmetic, not essential. Jeff's responds that anyone with ten fingers can't tell him what is or isn't essential. It may only be a finger, but we do so much with our fingers from dawn to dusk. Part of his work has been advocating to insurance agencies in order to increase the availability of prosthetics for amputees, without clients paying thousands of dollars. Recently, Jeff had the opportunity to go to London and educate a group of doctors on the necessity of finger prosthetics. Despite the advancements in prosthetic technology, the majority of hand surgeons are completely unaware of what prosthetics are available for the people they treat, and therefore won't even think to prescribe a prosthetic. Jeff asked the group, “Where would you be without your fingers?” Education is a simple but incredibly important part of advocacy for amputees. The Jeff Giving a Hand Foundation has an emphasis on physical fitness and living life as an amputee. If life has handed you a challenge, it's an opportunity to step back and figure things out. For those struggling mentally, Jeff advises the basics: just try. Go for a short walk, do something to elevate your heart rate, as sitting at home will only take you to dark places. Looking to the future, Jeff plans to continue doing everything he can to make prosthetics available to everyone who needs them. When Jeff first lost his fingers, he was unable to look at his hand when the doctor removed the bandage. Months later, he showed the same doctor a video of his most recent deadlift, and the doctor replied, “I always knew you had it in you.” Jeff hopes listeners know that a dark situation can be turned into something better, and encourages them to meet everyone with empathy and acceptance, whether their impairments are physical or invisible.Listen in to learn more about para-athletes and competitions, types of finger prosthetics, and how Jeff adapted and adjusted to life after his amputation. Resources MentionedJoin Me on Speak Loud PlatformSpeak Loud Podcast on the webReach out on Jeff's websiteSpread the message of Speak Loudly Podcast andshare this episode with a friend!Please review our podcast disclaimer

We call out what annoying thing that drops us from being a 10.

Today's meditation comes from The Gospel Of Matthew in The New Testament and from the writings of Bob Marley, with music by EVOE.

This past week when I was on a silent retreat, as the days went by and we all got deeper into our meditation practice, I could see that people were walking really slowly...taking long pauses to enjoy the nature around us; stopping and touching the leaves of a bush and even petting it in appreciation; gazing at a wild turkey and laughing at all its sounds and attempts at impressing us with displays of their feathers, or perma-grinning up at the full moon. If any of us had been wearing tie-dyed clothing, someone would have thought everyone was on psychedelics of some sort. And it kind of makes sense, because meditation does to our brains many similar things that psychedelics do – but that's another podcast. However, i's interesting to me that we often find it unusual to be in awe of life on a regular basis. Why isn't that our baseline instead? When did we fall from this state of awe? As you may know, dying is a sexy topic in Buddhism, with a lot of teachings centering around impermanence. There's a Tibetan saying, ““Since death is certain and the hour of death is uncertain, what is most important?” That's really the question, right? What is most important to us? When we deeply practice and pause to ask ourselves this, we often realize that the most important thing is to be in full, loving awareness, loving presence. After all, the only thing that's certain is impermanence, and accepting this allows us to let go of attachment and on a deeper level, our fear of death, which actually helps us live a more engaged life. As we stay present with and accept the transient moment, we begin to identify less with what changes, and more with presence itself. And we can begin to realize that this awareness is actually made of love. But don't just take my word for it. Dive into it and check it out for yourself. I remember saying goodbye to my dad on what I knew might be the last day I might see him. There was a deep sorrow in knowing that could be the last time. I didn't want to leave. I kissed him on his head. I ached inside. But there was also a tender awareness of this eternal, fleeting moment. The importance of being so present as my lips touched his skin. Feeling his warmth at this goodbye. When we let go of attachment to what's changing, passing - we then open ourselves to infinite possibilities and miracles in the moment. Buddha said there are different types of miracles - yogis who can stop the beating of their hearts or walk through walls and stuff - but then he says the real miracle is the miracle of awakening, of seeing the miracle that's already here. Do we need miracles and epiphanies to see the truth about reality? No. The very act of living and dropping into your body and having a felt sense of being alive IS a miracle. We've all been given the give of LIFE, which in and of itself is amazing. So let's ask ourselves: what helps me to see this all as a miracle again? Is it hiking through alpine mountains, walking along the beach in silence, sitting in meditation, or maybe just taking time for stillness in our culture of busyness? What helps your senses open to the experience of being alive? Practicing this isn't necessarily easy. To get there we often first pass through mindfulness of stress, or mindfulness of anxiety. Or something way worse. But then, the reward is to once again have access to the awareness of the wonder of life. Take a moment now to just look at your hands or your face. We have this body which has done all these things for us. We have a head and eyes and a tongue. Fingers or arms or legs that stretch and are covered with skin and have...made so much of our lives possible. It's WILD! So it's not about needing an epic experience. It's about a beginner's mind, the awe that comes with seeing things fresh. It's a lot simpler than we think. It's being present with what we've got. A lot of teachings in Buddhism were about how to live in the natural world and its mysteries. Nature helps us appreciate vastness, and there is so much beauty in its cycles and changes, so spending time in nature can helps us access this more easily. We can remember that we're part of a larger…Universe. Not an insignificant piece of it. A part of it. Come back to the natural, mysterious existence of being alive. Ask yourself - what really matters right now? If I only had today, or this moment, what would I think of my life so far, and what would I do with this precious, precious moment? In this Episode you will learn:// How accepting impermanence and death can open us up to a more engaged life.// How to open ourselves to the miracle and experience of being alive.// Why nature is so important in our practice.// How to make awe and wonder a part of everyday life. Resources:// Did you know I lead silent mindfulness adventure retreats?

Isabel got invited to an astrology party and so in this episode we talk about the rise in popularity of astrology and why we think it has been so trendy even though we think it is kind of bullshit and also why it might be useful in your life even if you think it is kind of bullshit. We also talk about the general category of similar personality categorizers such as enneagram, Myers-Briggs, DISC, and other random personality paradigms that people use and why they might be useful or not. Deondre's favorite is enneagram, and says he is a Type 2 Wing 3, and Isabel has been told she is a Type 8. This leads us into a broader conversation about our desire to organize the world when we generally feel like there are all of these crises all happening at once, and how maybe all of these silly little personality quizzes and our desire to grow basil and be little cottagecore fairies in the woods might stem from a darker, more survivalist place even though the manifestation might actually look pretty cute and harmless.

Check it out below: [00:00:00] Wesley Yates:  One thing I will say and whatever advice you're taking it from vet out who is giving it, right? So if someone's telling you it's okay to overpay, meaning you know what if it's a good deal and you believe in it, then it's okay to get more aggressive on your price.  [00:00:28] Sam Wilson:  Wesley co-founded VFR Capital Investments, a syndication company that is owned by a team of veterans and first responders. He served as the CEO and he's led his team and growing their portfolio from zero to 862 units in just a little over 15 months, estimated about $70 million in assets under management, Wesley, welcome to the show.    [00:00:47] Wesley Yates:  Thanks, Sam. I appreciate you having me on.   [00:00:49] Sam Wilson:  Hey, man pleasures mine three questions I ask every guest come to the show 90 seconds or less. Where did you start? Where are you now? How did you get there?   [00:00:56] Wesley Yates:  Where did I start? I started at the bottom. Where am I now? Closer to the top? How did I get there? A lot of hard work racking my brain and most importantly, having the right team by my side. Because it's not a matter of when you hit problem. It's not a matter if you have problem. It's a matter of when. So who you have with you fighting those is really going to determine on how successful you are.   [00:01:20] Sam Wilson:   Man, I love that. That's absolutely right. Tell me when did you decide to take the plunge from smaller deals into larger deals?   [00:01:29] Wesley Yates:  So yeah, like a lot of people I think, you know, they started with residential, really wholesale. And I was more like a plus one. My wife was the one that was really in real estate. I was on a contract to go to Amazon. So I'm like, Yeah, I'm just here, you know. So as I was networking, it was really that was the story. But I got a phone call on July 19 of 2019 said, Hey, do you want to do some syndication? I said, Do I need a license for that? They laughed. I was serious. But showed up the very next day and just started networking had about 250 cards in my pocket after the first event. First conversation went something like this, Hey, what do you guys do? They said, You know, we're investors, investors, investors, I'm LP and this many doors, all that what do you do? Oh, I'm gonna be raising capital for a group. That's, you know, syndicating multifamily. They asked me, you know, the typical questions, what's your cash on cash? What's your target IRR? What's your total returns holding times? I didn't know a single thing that they had said. So I reverted back to my old days of being a leader in the military. You never could say, I don't know, you could say I will get you the answers. So that's exactly what I said. You know, those are great questions, I'd really like to get you the right answers. So whenever we get closer to ironing out our numbers, I'd like to be able to get those to you. Do you have some way for I can reach out to you later on? Boom, boom, boom, five cards, went back to the group that invited me there. said, Yeah, I have no clue what cash on cash IRR. So back and forth, I went for a good hour and a half of that event. And still, by the end of it was having full-blown conversation. So cared more about the journey ahead and building momentum than how dumb I looked asking what people would call dumb questions. So that's where I started. And that was, you know, was that almost three years ago now? So   [00:03:15] Sam Wilson:  Oh, and so you started off raising capital for somebody else? Yes, sir. And is that what you do now?   [00:03:23] Wesley Yates:   No, I will like I am now in a more the CEO route, found out that I was better with my brain doing the operations overseeing the formulas, the processes, you know, I've got the whole six sigma training, the, you know, I was gonna go work at Amazon as one of their manufacturers was the operations managers. And so a lot of tracking performance, tracking efficiency, you know, driving that all forward. And so that's kind of what I did to our team and our processes is put a manufacturing engineer mindset to it. And we really started cranking out some deals. But it wasn't until I put, I guess, my own team together that I ever closed the deal our first year and a half of syndicating with other teams, I was not successful.   [00:04:11] Sam Wilson:  What do you mean by that? You were not successful? I mean, if you're putting deals together with other teams, did all the deals fall through today?   [00:04:18] Wesley Yates:  Just yeah. So in a nutshell, the, you know, as I was raising a capital A, you know, raising capital for that first role for that first team. You know, there were some things that I found out later on, once we really got into due diligence of our first deal, kind of notice that or some unethical things that have been done in the underwriting some unrealistic things that had been changed in the underwriting to just make numbers work. And, you know, I kind of rapidly dove into everything to where I could, you know, read the underwriting, or at least started catching on to those things. So yeah, I had to say, hey, look, I can't move forward with this deal in my better judgment, and told my investors in good faith I cannot advise you to invest in This deal, some of them kind of said, Okay, most of them respected that. And one of them is actually now one of my partners on my company today. So one of the co-founders of our company, Robert Newbern was actually originally going to be a passive investor. So, you know, less than I kind of learned a lot. I mean, still is, you know, you can have many different definitions to that. But did I close a deal? No, I did not close a deal, until I started my own team with the right people. So up to that point, it was more of an I was learning, and it was a trial, and fail and learn and move forward. So   [00:05:40] Sam Wilson:  what gave you the confidence to keep moving forward or being as the new guy to the space you're learning from some other people, then you get involved and you put time, effort and energy, you're going to conferences, you're shaking hands, you're talking about deals, you're, you know, have an investor conversation, then you get halfway through it, you're like, oh, wait, I don't like any of this. And I don't want to work with these guys anymore. I mean, that's, that's, that's a lot of setback for somebody new to the industry. What gave me the confidence to say, you know, that I'm on to something, I just haven't figured out the right way to do it yet.   [00:06:10] Wesley Yates:  Well, I don't know. To be honest, sometimes I made the joke that I was just too dumb to quit. I guess it's that inner marine and us we hate failure. I mean, you gotta practically kill us before we'll stop trying. Right. And I think that's what it was, is I still saw every step of the way, I did learn, I did grow. So I was scaling up. Even without, you know, closing something, I went from just investor relations to, you know, operations of a hospitality company, to a co-manager of $100 million fund. So I was still scaling up and building up experience and building up skill sets, learning more rapidly growing. So I still believed in myself at the end of the day, but I'll be honest, a lot of it has to do with my wife. My wife really supported me through all of that at the end of the day, she she kind of let me know, you know, you can do this. You've got what it takes. My family didn't feel the same sentiment of that, you know, a lot of my family flat out, tell me you're you're an idiot. What are you doing? You walked away from a guaranteed paycheck with Amazon and all the bells and whistles? To do this? What do you what do you do? So sometimes you have to look in the mirror and just really go what do you want? You know, can you can't What can you live with? At the end of the day? What can you live with? Can you live with saying I failed chasing a dream? Or I was too scared to try. You know, which regret Do you want to have? And I felt like I would rather chase this thing down to the bitter end until I could catch it, beat it and make it mine. Before I wanted to say nah, I gave up.   [00:07:48] Sam Wilson:   I think that's a valuable lesson. And I'm butchering this, this quote, but it's something like failure weighs ounces, regret weighs tons. Something to that idea,   [00:07:58] Wesley Yates:  one of the things that I think I've read, I've read, you know, the little motivational quotes that and it's funny because I hate rah, rah. But some of those quotes still get me okay, they still get me I think the one that really helped me when I needed it, it said, Winston Churchill says success is going into a new endeavor with the same enthusiasm. You started the last, huh? And I was like, well, there you go. So, you know, a lot of people say, as long as you learn, you didn't fail. And I think that's one thing that, you know, throughout my time in the military, throughout my time as an entrepreneur, I realized that if you don't look back and reflect on the lessons learned the Hey, what did I do wrong? What did I do right? Then? How are you going to grow? You have to be willing to admit defeat, you have to be willing to meet to address. Where did you mess up? versus what's that? And, you know, that's something that I've always been able to do is look back on whether it was a successful takeover, it was a complete fail. Where could I have made that process better? What can I have done? What could I have had differently in place to make overall something move better in the future?   [00:09:12] Sam Wilson:   That's a great stance, and one that is often sorely lacking in today's society is just that personal responsibility piece. What's what is though, perhaps, some bad advice that you received during the scaling process? Has there been anything that you dislike? And somebody told me this and that was completely bogus.   [00:09:31] Wesley Yates:  It's okay to overpay.   [00:09:35] Sam Wilson:   Elaborate, please.   [00:09:38] Wesley Yates:  One thing I will say and whatever advice you're taking it from, vet out who is giving it, right. So if someone's telling you it's okay to overpay meaning you know what if it's a good deal and you believe in it, then it's okay to get more aggressive on your price. Like okay, but then I stood back and I reflected on who was telling me that was the guy that required me to use his broker to buy his deal that gets paid on commission based on price. So of course, he's going to tell you it's okay to overpay. But yeah, I would say that right? There is probably one of them. That's still It's like no, you mean, in real estate. And really anything, you make your money on the bot, right? You make your money on the buy, because there is a ceiling to a market, there is a ceiling to, to an industry, and including into every asset. So you've got to know what that is, and believe in your numbers stick to a criteria. And don't fall for it. You know, was, since we're big on quotes right now was Abe Lincoln said, Whoa, it was like, find your stance and stand firm or something like that. Like I probably butchered that one worse than you did. But, you know, basically, you know, that's a lot of the advice that I look at from the, you know, true leaders and true successful people. You know, Warren Buffett is a good one. I think right now, in today's times, it's never, it's never been more true, then be cautious when others are greedy, and greedy when others are cautious, right. And as we are going through this syndication has never been more hot of a topic. And I was looking at some people that were studying justification, they say there's going to be a 60% increase of syndicators in the next two years. So it's like, wow. And everyone's just trying to, you know, get there do get a deal. Get a deal, right. So, you know, in some just being out flat, greedy, we've had the lowest interest rates, and you know, whatever, almost right. And now we're fixing to go from that switch to where, look, the feds have just announced they're gonna rise again, and be even more aggressive than the last race. So and they're not done. So now's the time to really be cautious, and let others be greedy. And then later when the shoes on the other foot and you know, maybe we could see, hey, it might be a buyers market here soon. That's when it's time to get greedy with the right plan.   [00:12:01] Sam Wilson:  Yeah, that's for sure. Give me that. In practical terms, though. I mean, you guys are still actively buying, you're still actively looking at deals? What are you guys doing differently now, maybe than what you weren't doing? Or what are you guys doing differently now that you weren't doing six months or a year ago?   [00:12:17] Wesley Yates:  saying no. What I mean by that to elaborate is, you're gonna have some opportunities that come your way. And you got to understand is it a valid opportunity? Or is it just a time suck? Is it a, you know, risk? How much risk is with saying, yes, how much risk comes with actually acquiring the assets? We've had a whole lot more deals that we had the opportunity to be a part of that we said no, than the few that we were, I will be under, you know, understanding, looking back to where I was looking for that first deal. And so hungry and so almost desperate for it, it's hard to say no, it's hard not to try to make something work. But one thing that I've realized very early on, and I've just instilled it into every one of my team members is, you can't make a bad deal good. But you can make a good deal better. And that's really what it is of that is we screened more finally, we stick to our criteria. And at the end of the day as a syndicator, you're not looking for deals for you. Whether you realize that or not, you're not looking for deals for you. You're looking for deals for your investors, right? So what are your investors ultimately looking for? Because if you don't have a seller, if you don't have an investor, you better have the money yourself. So, you know, that's a lot of what we had to get, you know, more fine-tuned of what we're looking at and branching out to say, you know, what, there are more markets than just my backyard.   [00:13:48] Sam Wilson:  What? Yeah, I like that. Maybe that's you maybe you're gonna answer this question already. But what are you guys doing to be competitive? Like when you do put in an offer on a property, especially in multifamily? It's unlikely you're the only offer? So what are you guys doing to be competitive?   [00:14:07] Wesley Yates:  So a lot of that goes back before you even make that offer. A lot of that goes back and when people realize that this is a game of relationships with other co sponsors, but more importantly, with the gatekeepers, that's what I call my brokers. Ultimately, the brokers are the gatekeepers to the good deals, if they don't have a good feeling about your you and your capabilities, and ultimately, obviously, it's not just me, but when I say you, I mean my team, your team, then they're never going to push your package forward in front of that seller. You know, example right now, I was a good 300 I think maybe 500,000 under some of the other offers going into best and final. But the broker liked our team to the point where he encouraged the seller to still take our offer even a lesser amount because of who we are and what we have done. So even if you are looking at your first deal, co sponsor with someone that has been there that has a sucessful track record, that's how you can still overcome that. But take the time to really build your relationship with your brokers. Because that'll go a long way when the time really counts and do more than just put in an offer. When I put in my offer, I have a nice brochure that says who is VFR Capital Investments? What do we stand for? Why us, the bios of every member, the team and our portfolio and a nice PDF brochure versus just a letter, just a, you know, a Word document bio, or even worse an email, Hey, this is who I am in the body of an email. So take the time you get one first impression to that seller. I've had sellers actually come to properties and come up and say, Hey, while we were doing our due diligence, and they recognize us from our from the logo on my shirt, it was like, Oh, you're the VFR Capital Investments team. Yes. Hey, you know what, guys, I really want to let you know, I really liked your story. And your brochure really impressed me I had higher offers. But because y'all look like y'all were more prestige and more sophisticated, I ended up going with y'all. I've been told that twice now on two different properties during the due diligence that the sellers had to come out just to meet us.   [00:16:23] Sam Wilson:  That's cool. And that's, that's a good gold nugget, you know, getting, you know, developing your relationships with as you call it, the gatekeepers and doing more than just putting in your offers and finding ways. And those are relatively almost cost-free ways. You know, to stand out, some people are taking much more aggressive stances, and putting down you know, hey, we're gonna throw in a half-million bucks of hard money, day one, whatever it is, you know, trying to stroke the bigger check, which is, you know, that may be necessary to that's another card in the, in the deck of cards you can play, but I like what you're talking about. They're just an easy way to stand out.   [00:17:05] Wesley Yates:  Yeah. And I didn't have the deep pocket to go. I mean, I started this, I was making $24,000 a year, I was broke. So you know, having the deep pockets to be like, You know what, I'll just do a little bit more. Let me slide this over there. So I worked what I had, and I had the ability to take the time to actually get to know who I was going to be working with. And that was to me, in some cases to others. More important than how much dollars were on an offer.   [00:17:32] Sam Wilson:  Yeah, absolutely. What's one great piece of advice, we asked this question earlier a bad piece of advice he received? What's probably the best piece of advice you feel you've been given?   [00:17:43] Wesley Yates:  Hmm, that's a good one. I think you would probably be you know that. It's okay to say no, I know, I kind of discussed that. That's really something that that I've struggled with, but it's okay to say no, it's not an admittance of failure if you're saying no to something that is ultimately a dead end. Right. And that's something that I know some people might not relate to, but, you know, everything that dangles in front of you is not, it's not something that you need to chase, they could just truly be a carrot on the stick.   [00:18:14] Sam Wilson:  Right? Right. You have the stick at the end of the carrot. You gotta watch out for that stick. Yeah, yeah. That's absolutely awesome. Wesley, thanks for taking the time to come on today, really break down your story, how you have found success, the things you're doing to remain competitive, protect your downside, giving us some kind of insight on what you do to establish relationships with brokers and really just kind of your investment thesis and mindset that you've taken and implemented to get you to where you are today. If our listeners want to get in touch with you or learn more about you, what is the best way to do that? Yeah,   [00:18:47] Wesley Yates:  So I've got my email, wesley@vfrcapitalinvestments.com. And you can look it up on Facebook or LinkedIn, we're there as well. And I'd be happy to connect and if there's anything I can do to help another co-sponsor, with their first deal or their hundreds of deals. We're always happy to sponsor beyond co-sponsor a deal and, and hopefully add value as well as hopefully maybe learn from another person's strategy. So that's, that's what we're about.   [00:19:19] Sam Wilson:  Awesome, Wesley, thank you so much. Appreciate it.   [00:19:22] Wesley Yates:  Thanks, Sam.
