    Most advisors I know have felt that tug-of-war: do I grow my firm, or do I show up at home? The truth is, you don't have to choose.At our Founder's Retreat in Maui, I sat down with two guys who really live this out: Daniel Crosby, a behavioral finance expert, and Jason Khalipa, a CrossFit Games champ turned entrepreneur. They've both spoken at Triad experiences before — not as “fly-in, fly-out” speakers, but as part of the community. They show up with their families, they engage, and they embody what it means to “Do Business. Do Life.”Together, we dug into how including family in business events removes the guilt of being away. It lets you go deeper on the business side, knowing you'll walk out of the room and step straight into making memories with your family. If you've ever carried the guilt of missing a soccer game or dinner with your family in the name of work, this conversation will hit home.3 of the biggest insights from Daniel Crosby & Jason Khalipa…#1.) You Don't Have to Choose Between Business and LifeBusiness success and family life don't have to compete. You can thrive in both without compromise.#2.) Eliminate Guilt by Including Family in the JourneyJason and Daniel shared how events that welcome spouses and kids create freedom instead of guilt. You're no longer worried about missing dinners or soccer games — family is part of the journey. That integration lets you be fully present in business sessions and fully engaged at home.#3.) Core Values Only Matter if You Live ThemIt's easy to carve values into a wall or throw them on a website. Living them is harder. At Triad, values show up in how members treat each other, how families are included, and how community comes before transactions. That's what builds trust and belonging — for advisors and their families.SHOW NOTEShttps://bradleyjohnson.com/137FOLLOW BRAD JOHNSON ON SOCIALTwitterInstagramLinkedInFOLLOW DBDL ON SOCIAL:YouTubeTwitterInstagramLinkedInFacebookDISCLOSURE DBDL podcast episode conversations are intended to provide financial advisors with ideas, strategies, concepts and tools that could be incorporated into their business and their life.

    What if one “smelly” condo became the springboard to financial independence, luxury short-term rentals, and a reverse 1031 into a waterfront Arizona home? In this Invest2FI episode, Craig is with Maui-based investor and former firefighter Mike Neubauer about turning creative strategy into real results. You'll hear how Mike and his wife Caroline targeted hotel-zoned lockout condos on Maui, bought a $540,000 fixer that “smelled like cat urine,” DIY-renovated on a tight deadline, and optimized pricing to hit ninety-seven percent blended occupancy and 10,000–12,000 monthly revenue. Mike breaks down the numbers behind a $ 7,000 net cash flow, then explains selling that unit for $ 1.365 million and using a reverse 1031 exchange to acquire and upgrade a $ 1.0 million lakefront home in Gilbert, Arizona, with a $ 400,000 remodel. What's for you? A repeatable playbook for markets, zoning, lockouts, pricing levers, and exchanges you can apply now.PODCAST HIGHLIGHTS:[04:32] Mike's background in photography and graphic design[05:56] Earning his first passive income through Amazon book royalties.[06:42] A firefighter mentor in Maui introduces him to short-term rentals.[07:15] Mike reflects on the fire tragedy and retiring before 2021.[08:53] He discusses building an ADU to house hack their first property.[10:58] Strategy focused on Maui lockout condos with hotel zoning advantage.[13:45] He details buying a $540k condo and budgeting $40k renovation.[15:29] Handyman backed out, forcing Mike to learn DIY via YouTube.[22:41] Occupancy soared to 97%, generating $10–12k in monthly revenue.[23:19] Net profits hit $6–7k monthly after all operating expenses.[25:08] They sold the Maui condo for $1.365M, using reverse 1031.[26:42] Invested $1M in Gilbert lake house, adding $400k renovations.[36:36] A preview of a 20-unit glamping development near Zion National Park.[40:49] Mike emphasizes picking syndicators carefully, investing in operators not assets.[42:42] His future plans include Coeur d'Alene living, Caroline's Maui realtor expansion.[52:05] Advice to invest early, network hard, and stay consistent.HOSTCraig Curelop

    Zach talks with Mike and Caroline Neubauer, the husband-and-wife team behind Our Family Invests. From meeting on a Maui beach to building a life of real estate success, family adventure, and deep purpose, their story is equal parts romance, resilience, and intentional design. Mike, a former firefighter turned real estate investor, and Caroline, a realtor and hospitality professional, share how they built financial freedom through smart investing while keeping their marriage and family at the center. They discuss parenting their nine-year-old son, Nico, navigating caregiving for aging parents with dementia, and learning that true success means doing what you love, without sacrificing connection. Throughout the conversation, Mike and Caroline reflect on their evolution as a couple, from best friends to business partners to co-hosts of a podcast inspiring entrepreneurial families to thrive together. Key Takeaways A shared “why” fuels success - Their marriage and business are driven by a mutual vision: creating freedom and impact as a family. Communication is non-negotiable - They schedule time to talk, align on goals, and revisit priorities regularly through “coffee dates.” Boundaries bring balance - Clear work hours, shared calendars, and family rituals like Fun Fridays keep life joyful and grounded. Roles evolve, but the mission stays the same - Each knows their strengths: Mike leads investing, Caroline manages transactions, and they pivot as needed. Caregiving changes perspective - Supporting Caroline's parents through dementia taught them patience, teamwork, and the value of living in the moment. Success without sacrifice - They refuse to chase money at the expense of harmony, choosing family and purpose first. Grace and growth go hand in hand - They remind couples that no one is “100% all the time,” and giving grace during hard seasons keeps love steady.

    Sacred sites sometimes get lost in urban settings as cities prioritize the needs of non-Native residents and commercial interests over the historical and spiritual value for Native Americans, but tribes and Native organizations are having some success connecting with city officials to see that sacred spaces are protected and accessible. After years of restoration work, what were known as the Indian Mounds in St. Paul, Minn., have a whole new look, a new Dakota name — Wicaḣapi — and an educational cultural center. St. Louis, Mo. just solidified a transfer of property that signifies the city's first-ever recognition of tribal sovereignty. We'll talk about the difficult work to recognize and preserve sacred places in population centers.

    Jeff Howe and Gerry Hamilton sat down with new Texas Longhorns head coach Sean Miller for an in-depth, wide-ranging interview. With his first season at Texas about to tip off, Miller laid out his philosophy, roster insights, and expectations for the journey ahead. Building the Foundation: Miller stressed the importance of pace, detail, and defense. His offense will emphasize fast execution—not just quick shots—while the defense starts with a strong man-to-man foundation. The key this season? Don't try to do everything at once—get really good at the essentials first. Analytics Meets Instinct: Miller explained how modern analytics help him identify the best lineups, balance offense and defense, and “fix leaks” when certain combinations don't work. But he still leans on instinct and proven coaching principles to guide decisions. The SEC Challenge: Miller called the SEC “the best conference in college basketball”—loaded with athleticism, physicality, and elite coaching. He compared it to the old Big East but with more speed and defensive playmakers. Scheduling & Growth: Balance is everything. Facing Duke, Maui's gauntlet, and true road games will harden the team, but Miller said November and December aren't the measuring stick. His goal is for Texas to peak in February and March when it matters most. The interview wrapped with Miller's vision: this year is about building steadily, maximizing depth, and molding a team that fans will love to watch because the whole will be greater than the sum of its parts. Season tips off November 4th vs. Duke—and the Miller era begins!

    The Learning Leader Show With Ryan Hawk
    655: Morgan Housel - The Simple Formula For Happiness, Betting on Others, Gaining Independence & Purpose, Family Vacation Secrets, The Art of Spending Money, & The Death Bed Lesson Every Leader Needs to Hear

    Go to www.LearningLeader.com for full show notes The Learning Leader Show with Ryan Hawk Morgan Housel is the New York Times Bestselling author of The Psychology of Money, Same As Ever, and The Art of Spending Money. His books have sold over 10million copies and have been translated into more than 60 languages. This is brought to you by Insight Global. If you need to hire 1 person, hire a team of people, or transform your business through Talent or Technical Services, Insight Global's team of 30,000 people around the world have the hustle and grit to deliver. Notes: Morgan dedicated The Art of Spending Money to "Kellie the Unicorn" (his sister Kellie) after she was diagnosed with colon cancer and asked him to fulfill her long-running joke request. Sometimes book dedications "mean nothing to the reader, but they can mean everything to the author." People Who Bet on You - Brian Richards (Motley Fool boss) bet on Morgan when he didn't have to, providing unconditional support for a mediocre college writer. Craig Shapiro (Collaborative Fund) pursued Morgan for months to join his tiny VC firm as a full-time blogger when it wasn't a business necessity. What money can't buy - Morgan once heard a story from a priest that he'll never forget… It's from a priest who delivers the last rites in hospitals. He described the difference between what kids say to their parents when they're about to die. The priest tells them to tell their parents what they're most grateful for… In families with lots of problems, the kids usually talk about something that costs money. In the best families, the ones with solid relationships, the kids say the same thing every time. “Thank you for believing in me.” Making vs. Spending Money - "There are literally tens of thousands of books written on how to make money... There are virtually no books written about how to spend money." Most people assume spending needs no guidance, but wealthy people often demonstrate this isn't true. The Internal vs. External Scoreboard - Donald Crowhurst (fake sailor who killed himself seeking external validation) vs. Bernard Moitessier (expert sailor who quit before winning to avoid attention and live authentically). Modern society pushes us toward Crowhurst's external validation while we actually want Moitessier's internal satisfaction. The simplest formula for a pretty nice life: independence plus purpose. The independence to do what you want, and the wisdom to want to do meaningful things. Chuck Feeney's Wealth Example - The duty-free store billionaire first lived the stereotypical rich lifestyle, realized he didn't like it, then chose to live modestly and give away $10 billion. "I was happy when I was giving money away, and I was not happy when I wasn't giving money away." Every Dollar of Debt - "Every dollar of debt that you have is a piece of your future that someone else owns." Debt narrows the range of outcomes you can endure in an unknowable future. Money and Happiness Research - Recent studies show that earning more money only helps if you're already happy, joyful, and content. For depressed, anxious people, more money doesn't improve well-being. "It leverages whoever you are in either direction." What Money Can't Buy - The book is "40% about how to spend money to make yourself happier and 60% about realizing what money cannot do for you." Relationships, health, and personal fulfillment must come first. “Comedians are the best thought leaders because they understand how the world works, but they want to make you laugh rather than making themselves feel smart.” "Nobody gives a shit about anything other than how you make them feel." Vacation - Morgan realized while building sandcastles with his kids on the beach in Maui (10/10 experience) that building Legos at home with them was almost as good (9/10). The real value was "uninterrupted time with my family," which required travel to avoid daily distractions but pointed to what actually mattered. Ambition - Morgan's career drive crystallized while kayaking past $25 million mansions on Lake Washington in 2010: "I need to work harder. I want one of those one day." This wasn't envy but ambition - though he notes the line between inspiration and envy is thin, especially once you know the person. A high savings rate is not "saving" but is "purchasing independence." Each saved dollar buys freedom to handle life's unknowable future without someone else's schedule dictating his choices. Why Spending Is Complicated People try to fill emotional holes with material purchases Society tells us what we should like, which may not align with our actual preferences We chase peer comparison rather than personal satisfaction We overestimate the social rewards of nice possessions The Independence Framework Save money not for retirement but for freedom to handle uncertainty Debt narrows your options when life throws curveballs Independence means being able to do what you want, with whom you want, for as long as you want The Internal Scorecard "No one's watching. No one's thinking about you." When people notice your possessions, they're either imagining themselves having them or envying you for them Neither response gives you the social validation you're seeking Use money to buy independence rather than others' admiration Relationship Investments Focus on what creates "uninterrupted time with people you love" Consider how purchases enable deeper connections (bigger kitchen for family dinners) vs. impressing others Remember that belief and support matter more than material provision Purpose Morgan's purpose became clear the moment he became a father: "There. That's it... I don't matter anymore. That's the only thing that matters right there." Purpose can be parenthood, work, religion, or community, but it needs to be bigger than yourself. "Comedians are the best thought leaders because they understand how the world works, but they want to make you laugh rather than making themselves feel smart." They deliver profound psychological and social insights while focusing on how they make you feel, not their own status. Regret -- Gerontologist Carl Pillemer interviewed 1,000 Americans aged 90-100. Not a single one said, "I wish I earned more money" or "I wish I worked harder." Nearly all said "I wish I spent more time with my kids" and "I wish I were nicer to my spouse." Inspiration vs. Envy -- Morgan credits James Clear as inspiration for "The Psychology of Money" and describes him as incredibly successful yet humble and kind.

    This episode is brought to you by Villa Carina Apartments in beautiful Bonaire. In this episode, we catch up with Jon, a passionate downwind foiler from the Netherlands, whose methodical approach to mastering the sport has taken him from kite foiling to SUP downwinding. Broadcasting from opposite sides of the globe, we dive into Jon's journey, his love for problem-solving on the water, and his efforts to build a thriving downwind community.From Kite to SUP: Jon shares his evolution from kite surfing to downwind foiling, sparked by a desire to ride waves with more freedom. After a knee injury sidelined him, he discovered kite foiling, then prone foiling, and finally SUP downwinding, finding his groove in Holland's windy lakes and North Sea swells.The Downwind Addiction: Jon explains what fuels his passion for downwinding—the constant problem-solving, the dopamine rush of linking bumps, and the ability to foil in a wide range of conditions. With Holland's 300+ windy days a year, he's found a paradise for chasing “8 out of 10” sessions.Coaching with Casey: Jon recounts his time in the Coach Casey Club, where sharing wins and breaking down skills helped him progress. His analytical approach led to coaching opportunities, including assisting in the Maldives, where he now helps others unlock their downwind potential.Gear and Accessibility: From versatile foils with forgiving low ends to the debate over paddles versus pair wings, Jon discusses how modern gear is making downwinding more accessible. He emphasizes familiarity over gear-hopping, sharing insights from his experiments with different foil quivers.Community and Competition: Jon reflects on the tight-knit downwind community, from Maui's Paddle Imua to races in France and Barcelona. He's excited about his upcoming November event in Holland, blending racing with a fun, social run to grow the local scene.Downwind Leaderboard: Jon introduces the Downwind Leaderboard (race.downwind.app), a web-based platform for tracking runs and fostering community. With features like global leaderboards and course maps, it's a fun way to connect foilers worldwide and discover new spots.The Big Picture: Jon's passionate plea? Let's focus on the joy of downwind foiling and ditch the noise about which tool—SUP, pair wing, or wing—is “better.” It's all about riding from A to B, building friendships, and savoring the stoke.Join us for an engaging conversation filled with insights, laughs, and a deep love for downwind foiling. Jon's story is a reminder to embrace the journey, connect with the community, and keep chasing those endless bumps.

    Spotlight Now welcomes two guests to explore Hawaii's relationship with the military when it comes to water and land leases. The Board of Water Supply is suing the U.S. Navy for $1.2 billion to help clean up the 2021 Red Hill fuel spill. BWS manager and chief engineer Ernie Lau says he has been asking the Navy to share their monitoring data, but they have not cooperated. Meanwhile, negotiations continue with the state and military over land leases. Those leases are set to expire in 2029, but the Trump administration has said they want a new deal much sooner. Gov. Josh Green has said it’s in the state’s best interest to engage. Native Hawaiian scholar Jon Kamakawiwoʻole Osorio, dean of the Hawaiʻinuiākea School of Hawaiian Knowledge at the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa, calls his response disappointing. In our new Community Spotlight segment, Kayla Keehu-Alexander, vice president of community impact at Aloha United Way, reflects on federal impacts to local nonprofits.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    It sure seems like everyone is just counting down the days until the Ryder Cup at this point. With minimal golf news and no PGA Tour event to discuss, Andy instead starts this episode with a tale from his latest round of golf. Playing at one of America's great championship courses, Andy decided he wanted to recreate an iconic moment and ended up almost hitting some folks enjoying a Tuesday afternoon lunch on the patio. It's been a big week for paying homage to iconic figures, as Brendan shares the latest Bob Uecker tribute from the Milwaukee Brewers. Brendan is aghast at the team reading and posting a fake letter from the deceased Uecker, which leads into a discussion about which ghosts this year's Ryder Cup teams should (allegedly) hear from. The Europeans have made it to Long Island and dressed in some... interesting... clothing for their first practice rounds at Bethpage Black. Justin Rose thinks that New Yorkers will become "caricatures" of themselves in the crowd and thinks that the VR preparation is a sign that things have gone too far. In actual golf being played this week, the ultimate Game Within a Game is underway on the LPGA circuit: can the unique winner streak continue at the Walmart NW Arkansas Championship? With 18 of this year's winners in the field, the odds are in favor of this incredible streak living on. Andy is fired up about the Stephens Cup and the U.S. Mid-Am, both of which are already underway as of this recording. The Celebrity Ryder Cup rosters have been released with big names such as Toni Kukoč, Pau Gasol, and Brooklyn Beckham facing off against Eli Manning, Colin Jost, and "Sticks Boy " Noah Kahan. In substantive golf news, Amazon Prime has acquired some Masters streaming rights for Thursday and Friday and - as first reported on this podcast - the PGA Tour will not open the season in Kapalua due to the water issues in Maui.
