For natural-born fixers and problem solvers, the instinct to tackle every challenge head-on is deeply ingrained.

Target Market Insights: Multifamily Real Estate Marketing Tips
Nathan Payne is the co-founder of Offer on Homes and Investor Drive, a wholesaling investment firm and real estate coaching platform helping investors scale their portfolios the “Painless” way. With a background in door-to-door sales and a passion for autonomy, Nathan has built a thriving real estate business while living his dream lifestyle in rural Ontario. He specializes in wholesaling, flipping, and coaching clients through real-world deals using a hands-on apprenticeship model. Make sure to download our free guide, 7 Questions Every Passive Investor Should Ask, here. Key Takeaways Nathan transitioned from door-to-door sales to real estate after seeking a lifestyle with more autonomy and time freedom. He emphasizes real-world coaching through deal partnerships, not just video courses or information dumps. Wholesaling success comes from embracing rejection, refining your sales process, and staying persistent through messy deals. Building savings and having a support system are critical when transitioning into entrepreneurship. Real estate investing should align with your lifestyle goals—not just financial benchmarks. Topics From Sales Hustler to Rural Investor Started in door-to-door sales before quitting to launch a real estate business with his roommate. Lacked marketing and deal flow at first, but invested heavily in coaching and mentorship to improve. After seven years in the business, he moved with his family to a farm in Ontario, living a slower, intentional life. Lessons from the Early Grind Faced rejections, lost contracts, and failed deals when first starting. Learned that sales tactics differ between products—urgency pressure may work for cable, not for homes. Paid for mentorship after realizing trial-and-error was too costly and time-consuming. Painless Flipping and Coaching Philosophy Teaches students by reviewing live deals, helping them qualify leads, and even partnering on closings. Emulates an apprenticeship model: direct feedback, ongoing support, and real deal experience. Rejects the passive “info-only” coaching model in favor of outcome-driven partnerships. Living With Purpose, Not Pressure No longer driven by money—prioritizes time with family and coaching a handful of serious clients. Believes success is defined by clarity and self-awareness, not vanity metrics or hustle culture. Coaches students to align investing strategy with lifestyle goals from day one.
Do you reflect on your experiences with self-criticism? In this episode, I revisit a powerful narrative technique called the "Once-Upon-a-Time" technique that helps you gain perspective on challenging situations and cultivate self-compassion. This two-part reflective practice transforms how you view your experiences by allowing you to step back and observe yourself through the lens of a neutral observer. The technique involves writing about a meaningful experience twice - first from your personal perspective, and then rewriting it as if you're an anthropologist studying someone else's story. Through this process, you discover hidden thought patterns and create space for a more balanced, compassionate view of yourself and your actions.

Why do I know exactly what to do but still don't do it? This frustrating disconnect between intellectual understanding and actual behavior isn't a sign of weakness or laziness.

In this episode, I explore the knowing-doing gap – that puzzling space where we intellectually understand what would help us, but can't seem to follow through.

Those compelling impulses to check your phone, eat something sweet, or pour another glass of wine often feel like unwelcome intruders in our carefully planned lives.

Living with Purpose: Leadership, Legacy and Building Impactful Relationships by Olajumoke Adenowo
Do you try to fix or suppress your anger, and feel guilty if you can't? Many of us have been taught to see anger as shameful, unprofessional, or even dangerous. As a result, we bottle it up, push it down, and try to ignore it. The cost of burying anger is emotional exhaustion and disconnection from ourselves. In this episode, I share a different approach to anger – one that views it not as a liability but as a messenger. I offer three powerful prompts to help you relate to your anger differently, allowing you to rebuild inner trust and reconnect with your authentic self without fear of explosive expression.

Rise and Thrive: Conversations For Greatness with John Merkus
Jesus Changes Everything | Restored & Sent After the resurrection, Jesus didn't wait for the disciples to figure things out — He met them in the middle of their fear, behind locked doors, and changed everything. In John 20:19–23, we see the risen Jesus offer four things we all desperately need: His presence, His peace, His power, and His purpose. Because of His victory over the grave, we don't have to rely on our own strength to navigate life's fears and uncertainties. Jesus steps into our lives, breathes new life into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, and calls us to live boldly for Him. Key Insights: • Jesus meets us in our fear — not after we've fixed it • The peace Jesus gives is deeper than circumstances • Jesus offers what no one else can: peace, power, and purpose • Every believer is called and empowered to be sent • The resurrection isn't the end of the story — it's the beginning of new life Key Scripture: John 20 (https://www.bible.com/bible/111/JHN.20.NIV) This message invites us to open every closed-off place in our lives and trust Jesus to fill them with His freedom. His peace quiets our fears. His Spirit empowers us to live fully. His purpose gives meaning to every step we take. Wherever you are, Jesus is ready to meet you — and change everything.

Have you ever felt like there's a committee of conflicting voices in your head, each pulling you in different directions? In this episode, I explore a deceptively simple yet powerful approach: treating the different parts of your mind as if they were actual people. I share a practical pen-and-paper exercise that helps externalize what's swirling in your mind, giving you perspective on your inner landscape. This approach, rooted in Internal Family Systems, isn't about creating multiple personalities—it's about understanding why you do what you do so you can respond intentionally rather than react automatically. By treating your parts like people, you create space for compassion and tap into the wise core of who you are beneath all the mental noise.

Abhay shares a conversation with Satyajit Hange, co-founding farmer of Two Brothers Organic Farms, located in Bhodani, a rural village in Maharasthra. They chatted about generational influences on his journey, grappling with the challenges of running an eco-conscious enterprise, and even the impact of his Vedic philosophy on his mission, vision, and values.(0:00 - 3:10) Introduction(3:10) Part 1 - nostalgia, typical farming day, tensions and purpose(19:29) Part 2 - combating forces, leaving the corporate world for farming, competition (35:37) Part 3 - suprises from visitors, Vedic literature and "swadharma", conversations with previous generations(49:04) ConclusionOK - so in my book and in my mind, earth day really is everyday and lately, with each successive day, it seems like when it comes to the earth and climate, retro is actually quite innovative. So I've been asking myself the following almost “time machine” question. And here it is: How would our foremothers and forefathers from a few generations ago react if they saw a slice of our current world and enviroment? I know they would be fascinated with so many improvements and major advances, but it seems that we would have a lot to learn from them to maybe urgently integrate into our practices today of how we preserve and conserve, treat the land we inhabit, and live consciously with engagement. It's certainly a question that was top of mind, as I shared a conversation with Satyajit Hange, one of the co-founding farmers of Two Brothers Organic Farms. Satyajit is a 4th generation farmer in Bhodani (भोडणी), which is about ½ way between Pune and Solapur in Maharashtra. After going away to boarding school and then starting his post-MBA career in the marketing, banking, and education sectors, Satyajit felt his purpose was meant to be elsewhere, and so he, along with his brother Ajinkya, started Two Brothers Organic Farms to make a difference in sustainable rural agriculture. Foundationally, they've been committed to 100% organic nutrition, humane indigenous animal welfare and farming practices using intercropping, heirloom seeding, and a superb focus on soil health and even bee pollination. But one of the more amazing by-products of this has been the galvanizing effect on the community with training and education not only for their own teams, but for thousands of local farmers. I particularly would also call out a spirit of activism, advocating for food labeling transparency and even the tech to monitor a traceable pathway back to the origin of each product. It's a pretty 2025 way of respecting practices that were likely quite normal back several generations ago, and while Satyajit and Two Brothers Organic Farms have come a long way from sharing delicious papayas at local fruit stands to now distributing food across the globe, when I caught up with him to chat about it all, I first wanted to know how much of his ongoing journey has been driven by that inherent nostalgia for farming life that has run so deep for many generations in his family?Learn more about Satyajit, his brother Ajinkya, and their work at twobrothersfood.com

Have you ever wondered what's actually holding you back from changing your most frustrating habits? As a natural problem-solver and detective at heart, I've discovered that our most persistent habits aren't just behaviors to be modified, they're symptoms of deeper burdens our internal parts are carrying. Today, I'm sharing a powerful framework that offers genuine hope for lasting change. The concept of the Unburdened System, beautifully illustrated by Mariel Pastor, provides a north star for what's possible when we heal the root causes of our habits. This isn't about quick fixes or surface-level strategies—it's about understanding how our internal parts can transform when freed from the emotional burdens they've been carrying.

Have you ever felt something uncomfortable and immediately wanted to make it go away? I know that feeling all too well. When discomfort arises—whether it's anxiety, shame, or frustration—my first instinct is to fix it as quickly as possible. It's like having a reflex that kicks in before I can even think about it. In today's episode, I explore why this fixing reflex, though completely natural, often backfires. When we rush to fix our uncomfortable emotions, we're actually extending their stay. I'll walk you through practical ways to access curiosity even when it feels impossible, and why having the courage to drop the fight against your feelings is ultimately less exhausting than continuing to resist them.

Have you ever felt like different parts of your personality are in conflict, pulling you in opposite directions? Inside each of us exists a complex system of thoughts, emotions, and impulses that can sometimes feel like a crowded vehicle with multiple drivers trying to take the wheel.
