Podcasts about Hustling

Ben McChesney spent 25 years behind bars, serving time in more than a dozen state and federal prisons across the country — from low-level facilities to some of the toughest penitentiaries in America. His story is one of chaos, survival, and defiance. After being accused of stealing several pallets of firearms in what became one of the largest gun heists in his state, Ben went on the run to Mexico for two years before being captured. Acting as his own attorney, he fought multiple cases, beat a federal kidnapping charge, and survived years of violence and transfers across 14 federal prisons. Inside, he ran underground poker tables, fought predators, and lived by his own code. Raw, unfiltered, and brutally honest, Ben's story exposes the reality of long-term prison life, corruption, and what it truly takes to survive 25 years in the system. #LockedInWithIanBick #PrisonStories #TrueCrime #LifeInPrison #RedemptionStory #RealStories #PrisonLife #SurvivingPrison Thank you to BLUECHEW for sponsoring this episode: Visit https://bluechew.com/ and use promo code LOCKEDIN at checkout to get your first month of BlueChew & pay five bucks for shipping.

You can't 10X your business by just working harder. Actually, the harder you push, the more you push away what you're trying to create. Dr. Kelly Martin Schuh shares The Grace Codes framework—and this conversation wrecked me in the best way. Five hours into climbing Mount Kilimanjaro, a guide asked Dr. Kelly to hand over her backpack. She refused. Every other woman had surrendered theirs, but she insisted she was fine. Then she realized she was weaving on the trail—a sign of oxygen deprivation she hadn't even noticed. The truth? It took 28 porters and guides to get 5 women to the summit. You need a village to scale anything meaningful. But first, you've gotta say yes when someone offers help. In this episode: The Grace Codes framework (Release, Reclaim, Rewrite, Receive), power amnesia, worthiness work, and why the woman who got you here won't take you to your next level without burning you out. Dr. Kelly is the founder of the Gen X 10X movement. She recently raised $40K climbing Kilimanjaro to build a school in Tanzania.   What You'll Learn The Grace Codes: 4 steps from survival to surrender (Release, Reclaim, Rewrite, Receive) Why "power amnesia" keeps you from remembering how powerful you are How to separate worthiness from productivity and bank account balance Why receiving is the hardest step for high-achieving women How Dr. Kelly went from $130K in debt to tripling her business without working harder What Human Design reveals about your energetic blueprint for success The Great Pause is happening right now, and what it means for women entrepreneurs Why it takes a village to 10X anything meaningful   Related Episodes You Might Love Episode 270: The Truth About Learning to Manifest with Alea Lovely https://sarahwalton.com/learn-manifestation/  Episode 227: How to Clear a Money Fog with Mikelann Valterra https://sarahwalton.com/clear-money-fog/  Episode 299: From Corporate Layoffs to Creative Freedom with Trinette Faint https://sarahwalton.com/career-reinvention-after-job-loss/    Special gift from Dr. Kelly Martin Schuh Free Human Design Chart: Discover your unique energetic blueprint for 10Xing your success without the hustle. https://www.queenofworth.com/chart    Connect with Dr. Kelly Martin Schuh Website: www.drkellyschuh.com  Instagram, LinkedIn, and Facebook: @drkellyschuh YouTube: youtube.com/@worthinternational     About Dr. Kelly Martin Schuh Dr. Kelly Martin Schuh is a transformational thought leader, speaker, and trainer in embodied feminine leadership and nervous system integration.

Y'all got anymore of them roguelikes? This week I'm joined by my dear friend Omari and we dive deep on what games are truly addictive. I'm talking games that feel like they have Reagan era crack in them. I'm talking games that have you sweating in your sleep thinking about how you just wanna play more. We also talk about New Style Hustle and the Kirby Air Riders Global Test Ride. This might be one of the longest episodes recorded in PP history but what else do you expect when you let the Big Kahuna run the show B^). ---- #FKM Discord https://playerplayerpod.com/discord Website http://playerplayerpod.com/ Twitter https://twitter.com/playerplayerpod Intro Music Provided by Aaron Miller https://www.instagram.com/themillerchild Joseph https://twitter.com/th3hoopman Arsene https://twitter.com/paxarsenica Omari His instagram is a riddle you must solve

I grew up believing that achievement = love. If I wasn't achieving, being a "good" girl and getting validation or money I wasn't loved, worthy or successful.Most high achievers have this wounding. A trauma based response to success and an away strategy. What happens when you dismantle and uncouple money and achievement from your worth, success or love?What happens when you have nothing to prove and no external validation? Listen to this episode to hear more. The shift to achieving as I breathe and making even more money with alignment and joy was a profound journey. A dismantling and dissolving to come back to my authentic self. To the things I can't NOT do. You are causing the effect - you don't need to live in the paradigm of doing things for an outcome or for validation. What light you up truly lights up the world. If you're ready to work together in any capacity. Now is the time.Looking forward to connecting. xox Ready to go deeper? 

Have you ever caught yourself living in constant hustle mode — pushing for the next milestone in your therapy practice but rarely pausing to breathe, to celebrate, or to simply be? I sit down with Jenny Jonker, a therapist, practice owner, and graduate of both my Money Skills for Therapists and Money Skills for Practice Owners programs. Jenny's story is powerful — she shares how her immigrant background, her family's experience fleeing war, and the survival mindset that shaped her early years carried into her life as a business owner. Together, we explore what it looks like to shift from fear and scarcity into calm, trust, and true presence. I coach Jenny through the process of breaking free from the “always-doing” cycle and learning to actually enjoy the success she's built. We talk about how trauma, culture, and early money stories shape the way we work — and why slowing down, resting, and allowing ourselves to feel safe in abundance is part of the deeper healing work for therapists. Jenny's reflections are moving and relatable: honoring her parents' legacy while learning that she doesn't have to hustle to prove her worth. She reminds us that the path to financial stability in private practice isn't only about spreadsheets and systems — it's about healing what's underneath. The Cost of Constant Hustle and How Therapists Can Embrace Rest (00:03:11) Finding Purpose Beyond Hustle (00:09:01) Breaking Cycles, Reclaiming Your Space (00:10:39) Feeling Empowered Through Your Backstory (00:18:51) Reflecting on Presence and Growth (00:21:07) Hustling to Prove Yourself (00:23:01) New Patterns Take Time (00:26:10) Prioritizing Rest and Growth (00:30:29) Balancing Hustle with Presence Redefining “Enough”: Healing the Immigrant Hustle Mindset in Private Practice (00:10:05) “Being an immigrant and having my own history and the way that I grew up, I think has really informed my practice and how I show up with clients and how I want to create this space with intention and be able to share my story and my experiences of hardship and poverty with clients in a way that helps them have hope." - Jenny Jonker Jenny beautifully describes what she calls her foreboding joy — that anxious feeling when things are finally good, but a part of you is waiting for something to go wrong. She's practicing new tools to retrain her nervous system, learning to let in safety, joy, and gratitude. One of her grounding techniques: closing her eyes, counting to three, and saying, “I am really here. I deserve this.” If you've ever felt driven by scarcity, fear, or the pressure to prove yourself, Jenny's story offers a gentle reminder: your worth doesn't come from your productivity. It's okay to slow down, to rest, and to take in how far you've come. Action Steps to Help You Shift Your Money Narrative: Explore your family's money story. Reflect on the messages you absorbed about money, work, and success growing up. Which beliefs are truly yours, and which are ready to be released? Notice when “hustle” shows up. When you feel the pull to overwork, ask: “What am I afraid will happen if I slow down?” Practice mindful presence and positive affect tolerance. Try the same exercise I walked Jenny through: sit still, close your eyes, count to three, and open them with the words, “I deserve this. This is my life. I built this.” Connect with your younger self. When fear arises, connect with that child part of you and gently remind them, “We're safe now. I've made good choices for us.” Celebrate your accomplishments – Visibly. Create...

Joshua is a world class hacker and his partner, the alluring Sarah, is a master safe cracker who make their living pillaging other criminal's bank accounts.

In this episode, Travis and producer Eric react to viral financial influencer Brandon Carter, aka King Keto's, raw and relentless advice for young people on how to save their first $100K. Brandon's story of grinding through multiple low-paying jobs and side hustles for 12 hours a day, 7 days a week in New York City is a wake-up call on the power of hustle, discipline, and focus. On this episode we talk about: The reality behind making $100K in your 20s through sheer hard work, sacrifice, and multiple jobs Why using free time strategically—avoiding distractions like partying, clubs, and frivolous spending—is key to wealth-building The value of creating a savings gap between income and expenses to fund your entrepreneurial dreams How Brandon's early hustle primed him for success when he launched his first business with capital already saved The balance between hustling hard and burning out—listeners reflect on their own work-life tradeoffs Advice on staying focused vs. scattershot hustling and the benefits of developing clear career clarity over time Top 3 Takeaways Hustle isn't glamorous, but it's effective: relentless work for sustained periods builds financial runway. Sacrifice short-term pleasures to create long-term financial freedom and opportunity to pursue what truly matters. Real success comes with focus and clarity, which often takes years to develop—don't rush, but don't waste precious time either. Notable Quotes “Work 12 hours a day, 7 days a week, and save half your income. It's not for the soft or the punk.” “Using your free time effectively is the difference between building wealth or watching YouTube all night.” “Most 20-somethings have more free time than they realize—use it or lose it forever.” ✖️✖️✖️✖️

“With always wanting to do the right things, take care of people, and people please, this set me up perfectly to be an all-in member. Doing the formula. Hustling! I was married in the temple to a returned missionary, had 4 children, and did everything I could to be a good, righteous LDS woman,” explains Lindsie Cornia. Those lines might be the beginning of a million stories in our church, but if there's one thing to be learned from ALSSI, it's that every woman's path is unique and evolving. So what happened next? In Episode 238, Susan and Cynthia have a conversation with Lindsie about all of it: where she started, where she's been, how it's going, what she knows—or doesn't—and how she looks at things now.

This is a fan fav episode. Being trilingual is considered to be rather prestigious. Speaking other languages expands your ability to communicate so greatly it adds to the perceived value people will assign to you. But, when you are fluent in Street, Hustling, Broke Money, and Wall Street it becomes the twist no one ever expected. Wallstreet Trapper comes from a troubled past that includes being homeless at 14 and serving 10 years in prison by the age of 16. What he has learned over the years reaches far beyond knowing how to trade stocks and build wealth. His super power is speaking Wall Street in a language that correlates to the same losing game he played on the streets that ended with being shot, in jail or in prison for nearly everyone he knew. His wisdom and willingness to share and make an impact is affecting future generations and bringing Wall Street to the hood, proving that human potential is truly nearly limitless when you put knowledge to use.

Winning the Latina 40 Under 40 award was such a surreal experience, especially when it finally clicked that I had manifested winning this award years ago! This is one of the coolest things I've manifested that I've never shared on the podcast before, so we're going to talk about it today!    This award didn't just fall out of thin air for me. I worked hard to build up my business and my community so that I could be ready to be recognized for the work I was doing. And yes, the universe conspired in ways I had no idea were possible, and for that I am extremely grateful. And, with some aligned action and a healthy amount of manifestation, my wish became my reality.    In this week's episode, I'm going to share the story of how I was nominated for and won the 40 Under 40 and how you can use my manifestation method, too! I use the Magnetic Method framework all the time, and it has brought me so many new and incredible opportunities.

What really goes into turning a story idea into a published book?

Travis and his producer, Eric, get honest about what “hustle” actually means and how its value changes depending on season, personality, and your real goals. Drawing on their own business journeys—as well as lessons from voices like Gary Vee, Dave Ramsey, and Alex Hormozi—they dig into the difference between productive sprints, burnout, and building self-awareness around effort, outcomes, and work-life fit. On this episode we talk about: The myth and reality of hustle culture for entrepreneurs and freelancers Why some seasons demand all-out work—and others call for balance (or a pivot) Setting sprints, tracking your time, and focusing on outcomes, not just hours How to know if your work is strategic hustle or just “busyness” Personal stories of burnout, pivoting, and coming back stronger Top 3 Takeaways 1.  “Hustle” is most powerful when it's temporary and goal-driven—set clear sprints and reassess outcomes.2.  There's no one-size-fits-all: personality, life stage, and values should guide your effort and expectations.3.  Track your time and audit your focus—real growth comes from high-leverage work, not just putting in hours. Notable Quotes “Life demands different seasons—sometimes you have to hustle, sometimes you need rest, and both are okay.” “Extraordinary results require extraordinary effort—but only effort on what actually moves you forward.” “Don't just show up. Do the work that actually produces results, then reevaluate and adapt.” ✖️✖️✖️✖️

Are you grinding yourself into burnout while calling it “success”?This episode is for every high achiever who looks like they're winning on the outside but feels empty inside.We dig deep into:Romans 12:2 and what “renewing your mind” really meansHow past experiences and trauma shape beliefs that quietly sabotage fitness, faith, and business goalsWhy rest is not laziness—it's the fuel for sustainable growthPractical ways to break free from overwork, perfectionism, and the “always on” hustle cultureThe hidden link between mental health, physical fitness, and spiritual transformationWhether you're chasing PRs in the gym, scaling a business, or rebuilding your life after a hard season, you'll discover how to:✅ Shift your mindset to break generational patterns✅ Use fitness as a tool for healing instead of punishment✅ Find real peace and purpose through faith-driven habitsThis isn't just talk—it's a step-by-step framework to help you renew your mind, reclaim your energy, and transform your body and spirit without guilt or shame.

Ever feel like you're trying to juggle it all—growing a business, being present with your family, staying healthy, and somehow keeping your sanity intact? In this episode of The Happy Hustle Podcast, I sit down with Jason Bronstad, CEO of Malk Organics, to talk about sustainable business growth, intentional living, and why self-love and family must come first. Jason's story is real, raw, and full of wisdom for anyone navigating the tightrope between ambition and intentional living.Jason has led Malk Organics through incredible growth—scaling from just over 1,200 stores to more than 15,000 nationwide. But his journey isn't just about impressive numbers. It's about hitting rock bottom, finding self-love, and redefining success through family, health, and community. He's not just building a sustainable company; he's building a sustainable life. And that's why his message matters—because it reminds us that Happy Hutslin' is possible when your values align with your vision.Some of the biggest takeaways from our conversation? First, Jason reminds us that family should always come before business. It's easy to get lost in work, but at the end of the day, it's your loved ones who matter most. Second, he talks about the power of intentionality—not just in how you run your business, but in how you live your life. Third, Jason shares his personal journey of overcoming rock bottom moments and finding self-love, a powerful reminder that success starts on the inside. We also dive into lessons on raising capital with clarity, building a culture that celebrates individual dreams, and keeping your team focused and accountable. And maybe my favorite nugget—Jason believes you can have fun doing hard work. Hustling doesn't have to mean misery.This episode is packed with practical wisdom and heartfelt insights on entrepreneurship, leadership, and life. If you've ever wondered how to balance building something great without sacrificing what matters most, this one's for you. -In this episode, we cover: -Balancing Family and Entrepreneurship -The Importance of Intentional Planning -Overcoming Misconceptions in Professional Identity -The Journey to Self-Love and Acceptance -Navigating Rock Bottom and Seeking Help -The Weight of Masculinity and Emotional Health -The Entrepreneurial Journey of Malk Organics -Leadership and Team Dynamics -Capital Growth and Future Vision -Transitioning Leadership and Investor Relations -The Complexities of Raising Capital -Understanding Proof Points for Success -Building a Sustainable Company -The Long Game in Business Decisions -Aligning Personal Values with Business Goals -Cultivating Company Culture through Dreams -Celebrating Wins and Building CommunityWhat does Happy Hustlin mean to you? Jason says it means going to find that thing that lights you up from the inside, where you actually can go inspire others to go live a good life.

Meet Iddo Tal – a coach who went from struggling to enroll clients to consistently signing $5K+ premium clients with confidence. Look, I get it. You're probably grinding it out for pennies on the dollar while watching other coaches land those big-ticket clients. Iddo was EXACTLY where you are right now. Undercharging. Overdelivering. Hustling his ass off just to scrape together enough clients to pay the bills. But then something clicked. Iddo made ONE simple shift that changed his entire business overnight. He stopped playing small. He packaged his expertise into a high-ticket program. And he started charging what he was actually worth - $5K+ per client. The result? Everything transformed. His confidence skyrocketed. His clients started getting BETTER results. And his business finally became predictable and profitable. In this raw, unfiltered 34-minute conversation, Iddo pulls back the curtain on EXACTLY how he did it: ✅ The mindset breakthrough that shattered his scarcity thinking forever ✅ Why charging premium prices actually made his clients MORE successful ✅ How he conquered the fear and self-doubt that was keeping him stuck   ✅ The exact system he uses to attract dream clients on autopilot ✅ His no-BS advice for coaches still trapped in the "time-for-dollars" hamster wheel If you've been telling yourself that high-ticket coaching "isn't for you" or that your clients "can't afford it," Iddo's story is going to destroy every limiting belief you have. This is proof of what happens when you stop playing it safe and start building the business you actually deserve.
