This episode is brought to you by Caldera Lab and WHOOP. Today we sit down with interior designer, TV host, and wellness advocate Sabrina Soto to explore how our homes profoundly shape our mental health, nervous system, relationships, and sense of identity. Sabrina shares her deeply personal journey—from growing up in chaos and creating a safe haven as a teenager, to landing her first HGTV role through a Craigslist ad—and explains why design isn't about trends or perfection, but alignment. This episode explores the emotional weight of clutter, how environment influences cortisol and stress, why small changes can create massive life shifts, and how designing your space is ultimately about designing the life you want to live—one intentional step forward at a time.

Many people who work hard to build and protect their wealth assume that once they "make it," everything will finally feel good, secure, calm, and settled. But most people don't discover the truth until they're already successful: money doesn't quiet the fear. It often makes it louder. The pressure gets higher, and the decisions get heavier. The same stress, anxiety, and old beliefs they carried before wealth simply move with them into a larger life. That's the part no one prepares high earners for: the emotional weight that grows alongside the net worth. And it shows up everywhere: in the urge to hold money tighter, in the guilt that makes generosity feel risky, and in investment choices that look diversified but are actually fragmented and scattered. For more than 30 years, financial advisor Shannon Ryan has seen this up close. She's worked with founders, professionals, and ultra-wealthy families who have everything they once wanted, yet still feel overwhelmed, afraid, or ashamed of how they handle money. Not because they lack discipline or intelligence, but because their emotional relationship with money never evolved as quickly as their wealth did. In this conversation, Shannon and I explore the hidden side of wealth: why financial milestones don't automatically create peace, and what it actually takes to feel free when the numbers say you should already be there.   About the Guest Shannon Ryan is a Certified Financial Planner CFP®, behavioral finance advocate, speaker, and the author of the upcoming book Your Money Has Feelings. With over 30 years of experience guiding individuals and families, Shannon blends clear financial knowledge with a heart-centered approach to help people heal their money stories, transform their financial behavior, and build lasting confidence. She's been featured on Good Morning America, CNBC, and TEDx, and is known for making personal finance feel relatable, empowering, and deeply human.

Want to invest in real estate without swinging a hammer or begging a bank? Matt and Lou sit down with Alex Martyn of SPG Capital to talk about how smart investors are bypassing Wall Street and making their money work in real estate through private lending.

Alex breaks down how his fund operates, why he pays investors monthly, and what makes a good borrower (hint: it's not newbies watching HGTV).

Jared opens Ticked Off Tuesday from Delray and immediately roasts himself for showing up to “the hottest restaurant in Delray” on Christmas Eve…only to realize his reservation was for January 1, 2026. He then spirals into beach-walk social awkwardness and floppy-hat groups refusing to go single file. The big vent is Delta, where he claims the airline hides his hard-earned upgrades in the app like a toxic partner gaslighting him about their “benefits.” Listener complaints bring the chaos: a hungover flyer forced to watch a seatmate bite and display nail clippings like tiny trophies, a university worker exhausted by parents doing adult kids' basic tasks, and a mother-in-law who treats dinner parties like an HGTV intervention. Overall, petty grievances, Florida sunshine, and Jared turning everyday annoyances into a full-on comedy sport!Jared is on tour!

Thomas Collins explains house hacking, multifamily investing, and how to make your assets pay for your lifestyle—starting with your first property.Full DescriptionIn this episode of RealDealChat, Jack Hoss sits down with Thomas Collins, founder of Shift Rich Academy, to break down one of the most powerful entry points into real estate investing: house hacking.Thomas shares how a single conversation at his day job sparked a mindset shift that led him from renting at $1,400/month to owning a duplex where his tenants paid nearly the entire mortgage. He explains why multifamily properties (especially duplexes, triplexes, and fourplexes) are the smartest first move for new investors—and how FHA loans make it possible with just 3.5% down.The conversation goes deep into:House hacking vs flips (and why HGTV gets it wrong)Establishing your buy box when you plan to live in the propertyUsing short-term rentals to dramatically increase cash flowCostly mistakes with tenants, licenses, and partnershipsWhy systems, virtual assistants, and AI prevent real estate from becoming another jobHow confidence explodes after the first dealWhy waiting for “perfect” kills momentumThis episode is packed with real-world lessons, beginner clarity, and systems thinking for anyone sitting on the sidelines.

Season five of The JP Emerson Show opens with a never‑before‑told story and the guest who unknowingly helped launch the entire podcast: longtime friend Cristy Lee. JP reveals for the first time how an interview he recorded with Cristy just as the COVID‑19 pandemic shut down production, lost its intended home, was published on his own website, and went so viral within 24 hours that it crashed his site — ultimately sparking the creation of the show.Together, JP and Cristy revisit that moment and dive into everything since, from her recent public appearances and wildly popular television shows to her car‑themed wedding at the Packard Proving Grounds, her HGTV and real‑estate projects, and her winter garage plans. Cristy also opens up about her battle with Graves' disease and thyroid eye disease, sharing the surgeries, setbacks, and strength behind her return to filming and her commitment to supporting others with autoimmune conditions.Mixed with dream‑garage talk, classic Mopars, BMW 2002 fantasies, music, friendly competition with her husband, John Hawkins, and a fun Q&A, this premiere blends history, heart, and horsepower in a way only Cristy and JP can.https://www.jpemerson.com/post/garage-squad-s-cristy-lee-how-a-solid-foundation-prepared-her-for-full-throttle-successConnect with Cristy here:https://cristylee.tv/https://www.facebook.com/CristyLeeOfficialhttps://www.instagram.com/cristylee09/https://x.com/cristylee09 Connect with Red Line Oil:www.redline.comConnect with Mecum Auctions:www.Mecum.comConnect with JP Emerson: www.jpemerson.comOlivia “Liv” Harper, Executive Partner, PR, Marketing & Distribution: www.jpemerson.com

In this episode, Travis and his producer dig into a deceptively simple question: is owning rental properties actually worth the headache? They cover single family vs. multifamily, house hacking, and Travis's own real estate regrets to help listeners decide whether rentals fit their wealth-building plan.​ On this episode we talk about: Why Travis still believes single-family rentals are worth it—especially for beginners—despite the horror stories and extra management work The difference between buying a simple single-family home and taking on a multifamily deal that behaves more like running a small hotel than owning a house How incentives shape advice: why many multifamily syndicators are financially motivated to downplay single-family investing House hacking strategies for young investors (owner-occupied FHA loans, duplexes/4-plexes, living in one unit, and letting tenants cover your mortgage) Hard-earned lessons from Travis's past sales—how selling too soon and thinking short term cost him six figures in long-term equity and cash flow Top 3 Takeaways Single-family rentals and small multifamily properties are still powerful wealth-building tools, but you need to treat them like a real business with real risk—not like an HGTV side project. “Don't wait to buy real estate; buy real estate and wait” holds up over time—if someone else is covering your mortgage, holding long term usually beats trying to time the market. The best move for young, unencumbered investors is often house hacking: live cheaply (or free), let tenants pay down your loan, and stack properties instead of selling them at the first sign of short-term profit. Notable Quotes “Buying a multifamily deal is more similar to buying a hotel than buying a house that just cash flows passively on the side.” “You can't plan your life around being the exception; plan around the rule that real estate rewards patience.” “Don't wait to buy real estate—buy real estate and wait.” ✖️✖️✖️✖️

In this episode, Travis and his producer tackle a common question: what should a young person do with their first $10,000—put it into stocks, real estate, or a business? They use that prompt to unpack why there is no real “easy button,” why business and skill-building usually beat passive investing early on, and how to think about risk, regret, and investing in yourself over the long term.​ On this episode we talk about: Why, if “invest in yourself” is temporarily off the table, Travis would still choose investing in a business over stocks or real estate for a young person with $10k The realities of real estate beyond HGTV—hidden costs, thin margins, contractor issues, and why most successful investors built deep, specialized knowledge first How to think about risk on a 10–30 year life horizon instead of obsessing over what happens to your money in the next 90 days The mindset shift from hoarding cash to using money as energy that has to flow out (into skills, deals, and experiments) in order to flow back in Practical first steps for “investing in yourself” the right way: books, free content, then targeted coaching once you have clarity on your path Top 3 Takeaways For most ambitious young people, betting on a business or income-producing skill will build wealth much faster than passively drip-feeding small amounts into the market and hoping compound interest saves them. There is no legitimate get-rich-quick path; every real success story involves tests, failed bets, and money lost along the way, so plan for the rule (steady action and learning) rather than the rare exceptions. Start small and cheap with self-investment (books, podcasts, YouTube), use that to gain clarity, and then don't be afraid to spend meaningfully on coaching or education that directly improves your ability to earn. Notable Quotes “The inability to make a decision will always cost you more money than making the bad decision.” “Money is energy—it has to flow out in order to flow in.” “You can't plan your life around being the exception; plan for the rule, and if you end up the exception, great.” ✖️✖️✖️✖️

Have you ever noticed that one foot is often slightly bigger than the other? It sounds odd, but it's extremely common — and there's a clear biological reason for it. This episode begins with why it happens, which foot is usually larger, and what it means for comfort and health. https://www.feetbypody.com/blog/is-it-normal-for-one-foot-to-be-bigger-than-the-other/ The Moon has been hanging over our heads for billions of years — but why is it there at all? Where did it come from? Why doesn't it crash into Earth? And what would life be like if the Moon never existed? Rebecca Boyle joins me to explore how Earth's closest companion shaped our planet, influenced evolution, and made life as we know it possible. Rebecca is a columnist at Atlas Obscura, a contributor to Scientific American, The New York Times, Popular Science, and Smithsonian Air & Space, and author of Our Moon: How Earth's Celestial Companion Transformed the Planet, Guided Evolution, and Made Us Who We Are. (https://amzn.to/3O1xn4s). Most people don't enjoy cleaning — but some people absolutely love it. And when they do, they tend to discover remarkably effective (and sometimes surprising) ways to do it better. You're about to meet Patric Richardson, known as The Laundry Guy on HGTV and Discovery+. He shares smart, unconventional cleaning tips that will change how you do laundry — including why cheap vodka might become your new secret weapon. Patric is author of House Love: A Joyful Guide to Cleaning, Organizing, and Loving the Home You're In (https://amzn.to/3vidAao). Here are some of the products Patric mentions: Scrubbers that attach to a drill: https://amzn.to/47vgd6h Waste baskets: https://vipp.com/en-us/shop/bins Laundry soap (not detergent): https://laundryevangelist.com/products/laundry-evangelist-laundry-soap-flakes And finally, many people resolve to lose weight at the start of a new year — yet most don't stick with it. The problem isn't motivation; it's how goals are set. We wrap up with a smarter way to create resolutions that actually last, using proven strategies that make success far more likely.

When people think about economic downturns, they usually assume the damage happens at the bottom. What rarely gets talked about is how many wealthy people lose everything — not because they didn't have assets, but because they trusted strategies that only worked when conditions stayed favorable. In this episode, I'm joined by Arthur Hood, an investor and entrepreneur who has built significant wealth across multiple market cycles and watched firsthand how high-net-worth individuals get taken out when liquidity tightens, exits disappear, and assumptions stop holding. We talk about why net worth doesn't equal safety, how paper wealth quietly evaporates when cash dries up, and the specific decisions that turn manageable situations into permanent losses.  Arthur explains why some asset classes keep working under pressure while others break, and why deals that depend on a clean refinance or exit are often the first to fail. Most importantly, we dig into the moves that allowed certain investors not just to survive the worst downturns, but to stay in control long enough to come out stronger on the other side.   About the Guest Arthur Hood is an experienced entrepreneur with a diverse portfolio of businesses spanning commercial real estate, entertainment, and hospitality. His venture Your Space America, focuses on the booming self-storage industry, one of the most resilient and high-performing asset classes in U.S. real estate. As Executive Vice President of the company, Arthur has overseen the development, construction, and ownership of large, climate-controlled self-storage facilities. These properties have become increasingly sought after by institutional investors due to their consistent performance across economic cycles. With self-storage offering an average annual return of 17.3% from 1994 to 2023, the industry has grown exponentially, driven by high demand from individuals, small businesses, and transitional populations. Your Space America is capitalizing on this growth by creating state-of-the-art facilities that cater to modern consumer needs, offering not only safe, secure storage but also a wide range of specialized services, including climate-controlled units for sensitive inventory and documents. In addition to his work in self-storage, Arthur is the owner of HV Entertainment LLC, which operates a growing portfolio of lounges and nightclubs across Texas, Georgia, Alabama, and Chicago. Furthermore, as Managing Member of HV Properties LLC, Arthur has been instrumental in acquiring, developing, and selling both commercial and residential real estate across the U.S. The company's real estate holdings span Florida, Texas, and Alabama, with a focus on value-added opportunities. From large-scale developments to residential projects, Arthur's leadership has helped expand the company's footprint and establish a strong presence in multiple high-demand markets. His expertise across these industries, combined with a strategic approach to growth, has positioned him as a significant player in both commercial real estate and the entertainment sectors.

For a lot of truckers, you can make great money hauling loads across the country, but it comes with a catch: the wheels have to keep turning for the money to keep coming in.  There's no automatic runway to financial freedom, no built-in exit strategy, just the quiet expectation that you'll drive until your body says you can't. And the obvious alternatives like owning trucks, hiring drivers, scaling through fleet operations aren't as simple or as stable as they sound.  Most truckers end up in a loop that looks a lot like the rest of America's financial reality: you earn, you spend, you start over. The numbers change, but the pattern doesn't. That's where infinite banking enters the conversation, not as a magic button, but as a system that gives truckers a way to make their money work even when they're not on the road.  But here's the part most people miss: Infinite banking only works if you do. Because there's a trap almost everyone falls into. You pay off your debts, you free up all that cash flow… and then you let it drift back into a traditional bank account, where it gets spent, swallowed, or forgotten.  And this same pattern shows up in another overlooked area of trucking: health. The lifestyle is notoriously hard on the body: long hours sitting, fast food at every stop, poor sleep, and constant stress. It's easy to wake up one day and realize your finances aren't the only thing stuck in a loop you never intended to be in. In this episode, I'm joined by Dexter Holiday, a longtime trucker who set out to rewrite both his financial and health trajectory. We explore what it looks like to step out of the financial and health cycles of trucking.  We unpack the strategy, the mistakes, the course corrections, and the mindset shifts required to make it all work in real life.   Things You'll Learn In This Episode  Infinite Banking only works if you doMost people succeed in paying off debt but fail to recapture the payments and lose thousands in the process. How do you start thinking and acting like the bank? Debt freedom isn't the goal; debt management is Dexter cleared his debts, then unknowingly recreated them because the old habits were still in place. How do you stop yourself from sliding back into the same financial patterns you're trying to escape? Discipline creates wealth and health The same mindset that made Dexter financially stable helped him reverse diabetes, transform his energy, and rebuild his body. Why do money problems and health problems stem from the same root behaviors, and how do you change them? Fasting can undo what the road does to your body Trucking beats up your health, long hours sitting, constant snacking, and limited food options. How did fasting give Dexter's body the break it needed to repair itself and reverse the damage?   About the Guest Dexter Holiday is a longtime trucker who has spent years navigating the financial and physical demands of life on the road. After realizing the trucking industry offers income but not freedom, he began searching for a way to break the cycle of "earn, spend, reset." His journey through infinite banking, financial mistakes, course corrections, and eventually dramatic improvements in his health has made him a powerful example of what's possible when you commit to discipline, learning, and change.

When entrepreneurs think about selling a business, they picture a clean formula: EBITDA × multiple, a "strategic buyer," and a smooth six-month process that ends with a big wire hitting their account.  What almost no one pictures is the real complexity behind an exit. The psychology, the timing, the identity shift, the risk calculus, and the reality that most founders aren't just selling a business… they're handing over a lifetime's work to someone else. That's the part nobody warns you about. Most owners obsess over valuation, but the real danger is preparing too late, choosing the wrong advisors, or stepping into negotiations with a fantasy number another broker promised them to win the listing.  And the cost of that mistake? Years lost, deals collapsing, and owners discovering too late that they should have fixed their accounting, diversified their customer base, or tightened operations years before approaching the market. And underneath all of it is an even deeper truth: exits aren't just financial events; they're emotional ones. If you don't know what your life looks like after the wire hits, you're at risk of waking up with more money than you've ever had… and less purpose than you've ever felt.  In this episode, I'm joined by Gregory Kovsky, president of IBA, one of the oldest and largest business brokerage firms in the Pacific Northwest. We dig into why the market is hotter than ever, how valuation actually works, the unique pitfalls sellers don't see coming, and why the real exit planning starts long before you think you're ready.   Guest Bio Gregory Kovsky is the President and CEO of IBA (International Business Associates), the Pacific Northwest's oldest and largest business brokerage firm. Gregory has successfully negotiated the purchase and sale of over 300 privately held companies and family businesses in Washington, Oregon, Alaska, California, North Carolina, and Massachusetts since joining IBA as a mergers and acquisitions intermediary in 1994.

00;00;00;01 - 00;00;31;05 Andy Hey, everybody, today I want to talk about the things we can do and decisions we can make ahead of time before something becomes an issue. Recently, most of us know about the government shutdown that had recently occurred. This is being recorded, November 24th, so of 2025. So anybody who wasn't aware of it in the US, the government had shut down, which was affecting air traffic because the air traffic controllers, some of them were having difficulty getting to work and some of them were being overworked because the government wasn't funded and they weren't getting paid.   00;00;31;05 - 00;00;47;13 Andy So I had to travel during that week. And what happened was I was I knew I would be able to get out of my home airport in Phoenix, of course, if the flight gets delayed. I just got home so it wasn't as big of a deal, but if I was going to my destination, I had to connect to get home.   00;00;47;13 - 00;01;10;21 Andy I couldn't get a direct flight, so I knew already I had to connect through another airport, which was a was another challenge. And of course, the whole network of of flights were being affected. So what I ended up doing was I postponed that trip because my feeling really was that once I get on that plane out of Phoenix, I had no control over when I could get back.   00;01;10;23 - 00;01;32;18 Andy I knew I had a flight booked to come home and you know, that was scheduled to come home, but I didn't know if that flight was going to be there. And and during the time when I was supposed to return home, there's about 10% of the flights they were expecting to be affected in the US. So there was a high potential that I was I was going to have an issue with my flight getting home.   00;01;32;18 - 00;02;08;08 Andy So really what I looked at was, you know what decisions can I make today to affect or put myself in a place where I'm not negatively affected by decisions that are out of my control? And so that's what I did. I just rescheduled my my trip to that client and, and, going in the future. But when I looked at, you know, look, talked about this, I thought about other sort of decisions that we make where they are one off things where we can make a choice and look at, you know, what decision can I make today where it's something that's not out of my control, but there's also much of our lives are spent   00;02;08;08 - 00;02;34;01 Andy dealing with things that have already occurred and where especially there's possibly high stress. And I go back. I recorded an episode way, way, way, way back. It was episode number nine. So this goes back to early in the Art of consulting days, one of the first episodes. So and in that episode, I talk about a lot of stress, especially when your subconscious is working on things as you sleep.   00;02;34;02 - 00;02;50;13 Andy This is one reason why we wake up at 3:00 or 3 a.m., and we have a hard time going back to bed, is because our subconscious is really working on the issues that are unresolved, and in that episode, I talk about some ways to deal with that. A couple of ways. You know, I recommend going back and listening to it.   00;02;50;13 - 00;03;14;03 Andy You can hear how young my voice might sound back then, and hopefully it sounds young. But anyways, one of the things is to immediately get up and write down all the things that are that you know are on your mind that are causing stress, and then immediately identify which ones are connected because. And then identify a step that you're going to make today to deal with that.   00;03;14;03 - 00;03;33;22 Andy One of the approaches to that is because often we can we can do things that will affect multiple areas in our lives. So and, you know, in that episode, I talk about the fact that if we don't do it, it's okay, because tomorrow morning we'll just wake up at 3 a.m. and our subconscious will remind us that we still have an outstanding task to do.   00;03;33;22 - 00;03;58;19 Andy So it'll our body and our brain will just keep reminding us until we we hopefully ultimately deal with it. But one of the things I wanted to talk about was being more proactive or preemptive on issues, especially when issues become a problem. So when we're notified of a problem that we're experiencing and, you know, we none of us get through life without major problems, it does not happen.   00;03;58;19 - 00;04;18;01 Andy You know, when we have those moments in our lives where everything is going good and things feel great and we're high, you know, we're on top of the world. Enjoy it. Because that does not happen. All the time. We're always going to have some issue and, you know, some issues are going to pop up at some point in time.   00;04;18;01 - 00;04;35;10 Andy We all have to deal with it. That's just part of being a human being. And normally those issues will be, you know, I kind of thought of a few different categories. You know, one, of course, is health. You know, when we have either a health issue, we're dealing with or a health scare, you know, those are things it could be us or it could be a close family member.   00;04;35;12 - 00;04;59;11 Andy But those are things that we're we have to deal with and things we have to look at and do something about. And, you know, we have to do some action towards dealing with that. Another one, of course, is financial. Most of us are going to deal at some point in our lives on a financial issue, either our own financial issues, which most of us will go through at some point, or it'll be a, again, a close family member.   00;04;59;11 - 00;05;15;07 Andy It'll be a child, a, you know, an adult child. It could be a parent, it could be a lot of different scenarios of people who are close to us, who are going through a financial issue. But typically it's us like we're we're going to go through some financial issue in our lives that we're going to have to deal with another one.   00;05;15;07 - 00;05;35;27 Andy It might, unfortunately, might be legal. You know, we might have a legal issue that we're trying to deal with. And again, that happens to people. It happens to close relatives. That's another one that, you know, we have to you know, people have to deal with. You know, the fourth one that I had was interpersonal issues. So when we're dealing with interpersonal issues it could be divorce.   00;05;35;27 - 00;05;53;11 Andy It could be issues with family members. It could be issues with our our children. Our parents could be interpersonal issues at work. Right. We're dealing with those sorts of things. Those are those, again are issues we need to deal with that that come up and we have choices to make where we can ignore them, but they're not going to go away on their own.   00;05;53;14 - 00;06;13;22 Andy And so we have to be proactive about that preemptive with what the next step is. We're in that situation. We have to deal with it. The last thing I want I have on the list is career. And the interesting thing was I wasn't even going to put career on the list because to me, typically our career is going to somewhat take care of ourselves itself.   00;06;13;24 - 00;06;36;24 Andy Normally, if we've got a career issue, it's going to lead into a financial issue or a health issue is going to lead into a career issue. Interpersonal issues are going to lead into career issues. Typically, our career issues are often driven out of the other four issues, and we often see that where someone is going through a divorce and their job starts to suffer.   00;06;36;28 - 00;07;03;04 Andy Many people I've not. I've been close to who who have gone through, unfortunately gone through that their career starts to suffer. And so, you know, that's one reason why when we look at those items, we need to be very proactive and preemptive about what our next decision has. One of the reasons why doing something is important is because we actually feel like we have some level of control over the things we do, rather than sitting back and letting things happen.   00;07;03;09 - 00;07;26;06 Andy And we want to be in that situation where we're doing something. So if somebody realizes, you know, they have to deal with their health, do something about it and do something about it today or their finances or whatever one of those items are, you know, do something about it. It will not fix itself. And the stress and the in a subsequent issues that come with it will not just go away magically.   00;07;26;06 - 00;07;52;04 Andy So what do you what can you do about these sorts of situations? The first thing is, of course, put a plan together. You know, even if the plan is just one step, if it's just to do one thing right, and it might be research right. Research, you know what to do in this situation. Today we've got AI that is a tremendous resource when it comes to searching for information, searching for help that might be out there, trying to find information that's there.   00;07;52;06 - 00;08;08;02 Andy Now, one of the problems with the information is we need to be able to process it. And there's a lot of conflicting information. One issue that I was going through and I won't share the details on it, but there was a lot of conflicting information. I found information that gave me one direction and then other information completely contradicted it.   00;08;08;02 - 00;08;26;18 Andy And so what I had to do there was I had now had to go find an expert in that area to try to find out what the facts really were. And so the next thing was, is to try to find an expert. So first the first thing was is the the initial, you know, looking for information. Then it was, you know, who can help me, right.   00;08;26;18 - 00;08;47;25 Andy Who is out there that can help me? It was not easy to find because it was it was an expert in an area. And as I was reaching out to people, those individuals said, no, I don't know anything about that. And I just kept reaching out to people. One of the things is when you start to go down this path is we start to realize that there's a lot of people that handle basic stuff, but there's not a lot of people to handle expertise.   00;08;47;25 - 00;09;17;28 Andy Right. Very specialized problem solvers, which is one reason why in consulting, typically, if you are an expert in an area, you're you're typically in more demand. You have to build up to that. But you want to find out who can help you. This isn't about just finding people who will listen. Sometimes it's good to get stuff off your chest, but you do want resolution, so, you know, find out who is out there that can actually help you in that same time, it's, you know, what decision can I make now, right, to start to deal with resolving this, this issue.   00;09;18;01 - 00;09;31;06 Andy One of the big points is the way you got into the problem is not the same way you're going to get out of the problem. My mom used to have a saying or August, she still has a saying, which she doesn't say very often anymore, is it's easier to stay out of trouble than to get out of trouble.   00;09;31;06 - 00;10;00;04 Andy But when we are in trouble in some area, it's important to not continue to stay in that trouble or to make the trouble worse. This is why we need to slow things down in most cases. Try to think through, get the proper advice, work through our challenges, think it through. And often we don't have that expertise. We, you know, we might have made up, made a wrong choice to get ourselves in the position we're in, but we often don't have the expertise to get out of that problem.   00;10;00;09 - 00;10;17;11 Andy So we need to find the right people and we need to listen to them. But we also have to do a lot of homework to make sure we're asking the right questions and make sure that the information they're giving us actually makes sense, because we want to make sure that if we are in something that's serious, that we are getting the right advice to get out of it.   00;10;17;15 - 00;10;45;24 Andy The next thing is, is really don't worry about an obstacle when we're working through something. And if you think of your career as it is right now, you probably faced thousands of little obstacles along the way, some big obstacles along the way. But you faced hundreds, if not thousands of them. Do not worry about the obstacles or someone saying, I don't have that expertise or know that, you know, you track somebody down that might be able to help and you find out they don't work there anymore and you don't know where to find them.   00;10;45;24 - 00;11;06;09 Andy Don't be worried about that. Keep it up. Be tenacious. Right? Have persistence and just continuing doing those tasks. Continue. Add it every day because this is what that problem needs, what the resolution needs for you to work through it to get to a resolution that's going to work for you. So keep working through it. The resolution might not be perfect.   00;11;06;14 - 00;11;24;01 Andy It likely is going to be something, especially if it's something that's major. It's probably not something that's ideal, right? Again, if we use the concept of divorce, I know a lot of people who have been through divorce, and it's not an ideal situation. For some people, maybe it is a good thing, but typically there's a lot of cost, there's a lot of pain, there's a lot of time involved, a lot of money.   00;11;24;03 - 00;11;43;03 Andy So so the point with that, even even if it's something where people look at it as something of as negative, look at it as something that, how do I make this the best situation for me, and what are the things that I can do? Where can I find advice? Where can I find support? Where can I find individuals who can maybe help me predict what's coming next?   00;11;43;05 - 00;11;59;10 Andy And as we keep moving down that road, we get more and more information, right? You ever you ever take a trip, right? We just push you to a place you've never been to. As we're driving down the road, we're looking in into the future horizon, right? We're driving and we're looking the future horizon. We haven't seen that before.   00;11;59;13 - 00;12;30;14 Andy But as we're looking, you know, 100 yards down the road, we can see what's coming. Now it becomes apparent to what what's coming up. And every time we take one more step, things become a little more clear and we've gone through it. One of the things with working through and doing more preemptive or proactive sort of decisioning, and the reason why I call it preemptive or proactive, you know, proactive being, you know, making a decision beforehand, preemptive, you know, making decisions that deal with a particular issue.   00;12;30;14 - 00;12;50;05 Andy So sort of a more of a, of a strategy around something has already taken effect. You know, you're already in, the situation and you're now making decisions that are going to put yourself in a position to be successful. But one of the things is it's this isn't about being vindictive, right? Like, so I use the example of of a divorce.   00;12;50;08 - 00;13;08;04 Andy And the only reason I do that is because that's one of the, you know, that's a personal decision. It's something that that happens, that interpersonal that affects a lot of people, and it can affect someone even if they're not going through it directly. It can affect individuals. But the decisions we make is not to be vindictive or to be punishing for other people.   00;13;08;04 - 00;13;28;12 Andy In this, we want to be professional, making decisions that serve us, that give us the result that we're looking for. And when we go through these particular issue, it could be a financial issue. It could be a lot of different situations where, let's say we ran onto some financial difficulties. It's to try to deal with the emotional end of it and learn from it.   00;13;28;16 - 00;13;47;01 Andy One of the big things I find is, is every time we go through a big challenge, it's an opportunity for us to learn from it, to build a skill set to help us in the future and help us with with future issues. Again, because I said, like, we're not going to get through life without having some challenges and some big challenges.   00;13;47;04 - 00;14;08;26 Andy And when we look at an individuals who are highly successful, they're making big decisions. And when we think, you know, one scenario, you know, I was talking about was I'm from grew up in Winnipeg, Canada, and there was a company called Canwest Global, and they owned a lot of the TV properties that they owned, like HD, HGTV, the Food Network.   00;14;08;26 - 00;14;34;02 Andy I think they might have owned Lying Lionsgate Films. I could be wrong with that, but they did own some of the TV, movie studios, a lot of TV properties, and they ran on to some financial difficulties where they ended up having to sell off the company. Now we look at that and we go, okay, well, the CEO who really represented the family that built up this empire, right?   00;14;34;02 - 00;14;50;05 Andy He's trying to make the decisions to keep this company alive. We kind of look at and go, well, yeah, that's his job. And and we can kind of look at it. Well, this is their family's legacy. This is their this is where their family makes money. This is where their family invested. This is how their their dad built out that business.   00;14;50;06 - 00;15;18;23 Andy That individual had to work through those challenges. And come up with a try to come up with a plan to to save some of their properties and save some of their financial interests. So, you know, and hopefully you're not negotiating, you know, multi-million dollar bailouts. But there are people who do and you have to learn those skills. So, you know, one of the big things is that as we develop as consultants, we're going to be we're going to be negotiating and working through problems that become bigger and bigger and bigger as our careers advance.   00;15;18;23 - 00;15;43;12 Andy And so this is where coming up with that ability to work through those starts with the the smaller issues. So as you're going through challenges is build up. That's that skill set. And and work through that and understand that again, people are going through these. And this is something that we we can't avoid in our lives. So so the big thing I think is, you know, really trying to understand the emotional piece of it as well and that the emotions will kick in.   00;15;43;15 - 00;16;00;04 Andy But but also understand that there are solutions to the issues that we're in. And sometimes they may not be the ideal one. They may be something that we necessarily would choose, but there are solutions for the for the situations that we're in or the, the challenges that we're facing. And there are experts out there that can help us through it.   00;16;00;04 - 00;16;19;05 Andy So work through that. You're going through it, know that. You know, it's again, it's going to happen. It's something that people go through. It's just part of living. It's part of life. It's part of being an adult. And, these things happen. And the more we're involved with different things in our career, the more advanced our career becomes, the more we're going to be.   00;16;19;05 - 00;16;38;03 Andy These things are going to happen because we're going to be exposed to more of them from a professional level and also a personal level. There's going to be more challenges that come up and and understand that we have the skills to deal with that. We just have to, you know, find again the path and and trust the path and trust those around us as we work through it and do our research and and our due diligence.   00;16;38;03 - 00;16;56;17 Andy So anyways, I wanted to share that, especially for anyone who's going through that now, but also anybody who goes through that in the future or if you've gone through that in the past. Really, it's a it's a great learning opportunity, even though, again, we wouldn't wish this on anyone, it does happen. So just keep being great, keeping yourself and keep working through things and just keep staying awesome.  

A lot of team leaders are trying to grow right now, but very few know how to scale without burning out, losing culture, or drowning in problems that show up the moment the business gets bigger. That tension is exactly where Lindsay Stevens built her strength. And the way she talks about these challenges will make every real estate leader stop and think.   On this episode of the GRIT Podcast, Brian Charlesworth sits down with Lindsay, co-owner and team leader of Stevens Real Estate, to uncover how she went from overwhelmed agent to running one of the fastest-growing teams in her market.    The twist is that none of it came from perfect planning. It came from saying yes to uncomfortable moments, including being thrown onto a five-thousand-person stage with one week to prepare. She also breaks down the discipline required to survive New York's long 120-day transaction cycle. It is the kind of cycle that forces leaders to either master their systems or get buried by them.   Lindsay talks about the seasons she had to fight through distractions, doubt, and long days that made her question whether she was even built for leadership. She shares a simple line that keeps her centered. "Life is hard. Real estate is hard. But the sun comes up tomorrow." It is the kind of line that hits differently when you hear the story behind it.   Brian and Lindsay also break down a moment that shifted their entire operation. Dialing in their Sisu stages, statuses, and tagging finally removed the chaos inside New York's long transaction cycle, and it changed the way their agents performed. As she puts it, "You do not rise to the level of your goals. You fall to the level of your systems."   Top Takeaways:   (2:23) Saying yes to a 5000-person stage (9:51) Breakthroughs after wanting to quit (12:02) CEO vs. team leader roles in a business (14:21) How Sisu rebuilt transaction flow (21:08) The power of proximity and fast execution (32:19) Scaling with leverage and a new COO (32:12) Working on the business, not in the business (37:58) Why systems come before 20 agents (38:28) Micro commitments and predictable wins in Sisu (42:21) AI as a business partner and coach (45:00) Why AI will not replace relationships in real estate   If you want an honest look at growth, leadership, and the real work behind building a strong team, this episode with Lindsay will pull you in from the first few minutes.   About Lindsay Stevens   Lindsay Stevens is a Hudson Valley native and co-founder of Stevens Realty Group, featured on HGTV's House Hunters. She led New Paltz as the top sales agent in 2017, 2018, and 2019 while growing the firm into a multi-million dollar real estate and property management company. With a background in Legal Studies and Business from UMass Amherst, she has worked in sales, marketing, and communications with companies like Edelman and Morgan Stanley.

Matt shares his journey from studying marketing and economics at Appalachian State to becoming a top 1% loan officer and now the Sales Manager for Guild's North Charlotte region.

Matt also highlights why Lake Norman remains such a desirable place to live, from its four true seasons to its balance of affordability, lifestyle, and economic opportunity.

In this episode, I sit down with Jenny Marrs, author, adoptive mom, and co-host of HGTV's Fixer to Fabulous, for a tender and deeply human conversation about grief, waiting, restoration, and the steady presence of God in the middle of it all. Jenny shares openly about a season of profound loss, the long and miraculous journey to bring her daughter home from the Congo, and the everyday choice to trust God when life feels overwhelming or out of control. We talk about compassion in a divided world, what it means to “go with the strength you have,” and how the smallest moments, from heart-shaped stones to a stranger's kindness to a child's simple confession of faith, can become markers of God's faithfulness. This is an honest and hopeful look at what it means to live out Trust God, Love People in real time, and I believe her story will be both grounding and deeply encouraging for you.Jenny Marrs is a designer, author, and passionate advocate for community transformation, family preservation, and orphan care around the globe. She is the author of House + Home = Love, and co-hosts Fixer to Fabulous with her husband, Dave.

When people think about wealth-building, they picture stock charts, IRR calculators, and "smart" portfolios engineered by advisors. What they never picture is a dentist quietly building long-term wealth through trees or using a whole life policy as the cheapest, most flexible source of capital in his business. That narrow view hides one of the most powerful truths about high-net-worth families today: the real wealth is built through boring, patient, predictable decisions that compound for decades… not the high-IQ investing most people obsess over. Most high earners are told to focus on returns. Jeff flips that equation. He focuses on building a life. He invests based on clarity, intention, and a long-term vision of what he wants his days to look like. Once you have that vision, the decisions become simple. You stop chasing the market and checking performance and start building something inevitable. In this episode, I sit down with dentist, entrepreneur, and long-term investor, Dr. Jeff Seibert. We unpack how he creates wealth by ignoring the noise, lowering his cost of capital, buying assets that grow while he sleeps, and designing his portfolio around the life he actually wants.    Guest Bio Dr. Jeff Seibert is a successful dentist and serial entrepreneur known for building highly profitable, well-run practices and using them as engines to fund private investments. What sets him apart is his refreshingly unique philosophy: he doesn't chase quick returns or market noise. He builds businesses and buys assets that compound quietly for decades, giving him freedom, control and long-term wealth without stress or speculation.   About Your Host From pro-snowboarder to money mogul, Chris Naugle has dedicated his life to being America's #1 Money Mentor. With a core belief that success is built not by the resources you have, but by how resourceful you can be.

Oh — and the former owner is buried on the property.• Langs Mill (Doss, Texas) — A 19th-century mill on 300+ acres full of crooked barns, old machinery, graffiti from kids in the 50s and 80s, fey-feeling creek beds, and Confederate-era history that absolutely left a mark.• The Lake Michigan Organ House — A sweet little lakeside ranch hiding a massive Victorian-style music auditorium beneath it, with balcony seating and one of the largest Wurlitzer pipe organs ever made. Vampire cult vibes included.We break down the hauntings, the strange histories, the design choices that feel too cursed, and what it would be like to actually live in these places.

Have you seen the show Hoarding for the Holidays on HGTV?? One woman pays $9,000 a month to store all of her Christmas decorations! Do you have a problem hoarding decorations?

For most people, debt isn't a mistake; it's just life. The mortgage, the car loan, and the credit cards are what everyone does. Making the minimum payments feels normal, but that actually keeps people stuck. Millions of families are drowning in debt, and they're barely managing. They're working hard, keeping up with their bills, but almost every dollar they earn goes right back out in interest. They're not moving forward; they're treading water. The hard part is, they're not doing anything "wrong." They're doing what the system taught them to do: stay cash-poor while the banks collect. People proudly lock in their 30-year loans at "record low rates," convinced they've made the smartest financial move of their lives. But they don't realize that even at 3%, they're giving away hundreds of thousands in interest. That money could be building security, breathing room, and financial freedom.  What if the same dollars you're paying the bank every month could start working for you instead? What if your paycheck could reduce your interest, shorten your payoff timeline, and create new cash flow, without earning a cent more? In this episode, Velocity Banking expert Christy Vann and all-in-one loan expert Harrison George return. We unpack how the system keeps you cash poor, and the simple shifts that can set you free. From using tools like the all-in-one first-lien HELOC to applying velocity and Infinite Banking principles, you'll learn how to redirect your money and eliminate debt faster.    Things You'll Learn In This Episode  The minimum-payment illusion Most people think staying current on their bills means they're managing their money well.
