How can you successfully tackle distressed real estate investing when so many others fail? Noel Parnell shares his journey from getting started with distressed real estate investing to now owning over 400 units. He provides specific tactics on how he was able to rehab properties down to the studs, manage contractors effectively, and scale his portfolio. Noel Parnell, a Philadelphia native, has been interested in real estate for as long as he can remember. Always a visionary, Noel recognized an entry point into the field that he had once dreamed about during the peak of the 2007 Great Recession. What was a loss for some, was the launchpad for a dynamic and fulfilling career. Noel's initial work was focused on rehabilitation. Relying on his strong work ethic, an intimate knowledge of his hometown and an innate business savvy, Noel acquired severely distressed properties and transformed them into beautiful homes. During this period, Noel's childhood interest changed into his passion. He became a dedicated student of the business of real estate, learning both through traditional study and hands-on practical experience. To date, Noel has engaged in over 100 real estate transactions in the United States and abroad. He has amassed a portfolio of over $6 million, which includes undeveloped/underdeveloped land, single and multifamily units as well as commercial properties. Prior to the takeoff of his real estate career, Noel worked as a scientist for GlaxoSmithKline as well as in program management for several prominent pharmaceutical companies. He was a member of the 2008 Olympic team for the US Paralympic Team. He is an avid runner, swimmer, cross fitter, jiu-jitsu and Muay Thai athlete. Noel has successfully leveraged the discipline, creativity and organization skills developed during these experiences to inform his current business strategy. (00:03:10 - 00:05:53) Opening Segment Noel was motivated to invest in real estate after losing his job in the 2008 financial crisis. He started knocking on doors of distressed properties, trying to help homeowners avoid foreclosure. It took 3 years of persistence before he got his first deal. (00:05:54 - 00:09:25) House Hacking and Learning Construction Noel house hacked a distressed property he bought from a retiring landlord. A bad contractor experience motivated him to learn construction himself. He studied real estate and construction books at the library to gain knowledge. (00:09:26 - 00:16:56) Managing Contractors and Crews Noel takes accountability when contractors underperform instead of blaming them. He learns about his crew's culture and schedules to lead effectively. Following detailed processes and check-ins keeps projects on track (00:16:57 - 00:22:29) Pivoting from Distressed to Multifamily Investing Noel fixed up about 95% of his 136 doors. He pivoted to multifamily to increase net worth faster. He still buys distressed properties for his son's portfolio. (00:22:30 - 00:29:00) Closing segment Best deal: A 20 unit complex in Houston, Texas Worst deal: A house flip Top lesson learned: Never accept the No from someone who doesn't have the power to tell you Yes. Quotes: "Never accept the No from someone that doesn't have the power to tell you Yes." - Noel Parnell "When contractors underperform, it's on me to hire them." - Noel Parnell Connect with Noel: Website: https://crowncapitalcorp.com/ Apply to Invest with Taylor at www.investwithtaylor.com Track your wealth for free with Personal Capital, go to www.escapingwallstreet.com Please leave a review and help others escape Wall Street and build wealth on Main Street!
Doing Divorce Different A Podcast Guide to Doing Divorce Differently
Karen McMahon, from Journey Beyond Divorce, is back for part 2. Karen teaches us all how to be a boundary badass! She shares what to do if your co-parent isn't respecting your boundaries and paying attention to triggers that you are experiencing. She discusses parallel co-parenting and the logistical complexities of co-parenting. It is so refreshing to hear what Karen has to say, and learning how to take back your power! Tune in today to learn more about becoming a boundary badass! In this episode: [1:21] What should you do if someone is not respecting your boundary? [8:37] How can you best manage a parallel co-parenting relationship? [14:34] Karen talks about the logistical complexity of co-parenting. [18:34] How do you notice triggers? [20:43] If your heart wants to deviate from the parenting plan and you want to be flexible with the schedules, should you? [23:43] Lesa shares her parenting plan course. Key Takeaways: When talking to your co-parent, communicate just the facts, keep opinions to yourself. Keep your side of the street clean, which helps keep your boundaries upheld. You have the power to break generational patterns through your actions. Show your children how to handle difficult relationships and how to manage their emotions. Show them how powerful they can be by spreading kindness! When you start to notice that you are being triggered, step back and look at the situation. Understand what is being triggered and what you need to work on. Quotes: “Never let somebody else's bad behavior determine yours. And it's my rule to my clients too, because I could really stoop low when I'm dealing with somebody who's disordered and angry and, but why? Why would you want to stoop low? You're giving your power away.” - Karen McMahon “To everyone listening: Hot mess. I was the worst. I was the ugliest. I was the most reactive. I was a rageaholic. I was the poster girl for what not to be going through a divorce. I don't want anyone to think that I'm all that. I have just worked really, really hard. And it has been such a beautiful transformation that I'm so passionate about paying it forward and sharing it.” - Karen McMahon Guest Bio: Karen founded Journey Beyond Divorce in 2010, after discovering that the pain of dissolving her marriage had been the very stimulus for her personal transformation. During her three and a half year tumultuous divorce, Karen's life began to improve exponentially. With much hard work, she embraced her new life, created healthy friendships, found her true voice, and learned to set suitable boundaries and let go of what she could not control. Learning to live a healthy enlivened life is something that we can share with our children, creating thriving relationships with them while helping them grow emotionally strong and healthy. Karen is a graduate of the world's leading coaching institute, Institute for Professional Excellence in Coaching (iPEC) and a Certified Member of the International Coaching Federation (ICF). Karen's other accomplishments include work as a NYS Lobbyist, Health Advocate, Community Organizer, and Chairperson of a NYS non-profit organization, Director of Sales and Marketing, and successful small business owner.

Chief Revenue Officer Bradley Pierce of Guardspace joins the pack to talk about mobile app security and his career path to where he is now. Bradley also discusses the role of interpersonal relationships and mentorship in guiding career paths, how resilience can help us cope with the challenges and transformations we encounter, and his strategies around building a team as a sales leader.

He has held several senior leadership positions and has over 25 years of experience building and scaling high-performance teams, driving revenue growth, and creating value for customers and investors across various domains, such as risk management, compliance, cloud, and AI. Quotes: “Never be too full of yourself. I mean, I'm a CRO, and they're people that look at me and say, Well, you're a CRO, you've achieved, but I have so much more to learn and to gain. And I would say continue to be inquisitive, right? It's the people who are 80 years old and go run marathons. It's the people that learn and pick a painting. It's the people that decide to go take a trip to places unknown. Once you stop learning...you're in trouble.” “One, it's about alignment. And I can't answer that for you. I can say what we can offer. I can say what we can do, I can give you, I've offered to give people references, people who used to work for me so it's not, you know, we always ask when we're interviewing, "' want your references.' I say ‘Here's, here's people who've worked for me, individual contributor roles. Here's other people, reach out to them, find out who I am. Do you think you can work with me?'” “If you just take a pause back, you recognize that everyone's human, you recognize that really, for the most part, people come from place of good, and ultimately it's not about you.” Links: Bradley Paster | LinkedIn Guardsquare: Overview | LinkedIn Leader In Mobile App Security | Guardsquare Empellor CRM Sales Lead Dog Podcast Empellor CRM LinkedIn #sales #podcast #change #salesleaddog #leadership #leadershipdevelopment #interviewing #recruitment

“Human evolution is largely a tribe on tribe competition. So being a tribal loyalist and transmitting that cultural package reliably, that's our survival edge,” explains Tim Ash, founder of Primal Brain, international keynote speaker, and bestselling author. Tim's career path from exiting his digital marketing agency to consulting and speaking was largely influenced by his background in evolutionary psychology. Today, Tim speaks on how to leverage evolutionary psychology to your advantage within your business.Successful entrepreneurship is primarily based in storytelling, which is all about transmitting cultural knowledge to others. Transmitting this information was a matter of life and death in the early days of humanity and even now, humans are hardwired to seek this tribal connectivity. Great digital marketing should build off the basic principles of storytelling. If you are looking to sell your product or service, appeal to peoples' emotions through sharing your story, as people inherently make decisions based on their emotions. In addition to using psychology to guide your sales and marketing strategies, it can be applied to managing your business as well. For example, Tim recommends starting with your hardest task that takes the most conscious thought first, as there is a limited amount of brain energy available to you. He also shares the shocking fact that caffeine is not actually a stimulant, nor does it act as a replacement for getting enough sleep.When you understand how the brain works and why it evolved to function in these ways, it becomes easier to understand how to build connections with others and how to influence their decision making process. No matter how far humans have come since first evolving, the brain continues to work in the same ways, constantly scanning the environment for danger, seeking tribal networks for a sense of security, and making decisions based on emotional response. Quotes“Never take criticism from someone you wouldn't go to for advice.” (5:00-5:05 | Tim) “Human evolution is largely a tribe on tribe competition. So being a tribal loyalist and transmitting that cultural package reliably, that's our survival edge.” (8:11-8:20 | Tim)“All major psychiatric conditions involve a sleep disturbance.” (10:03-10:08 | Tim)“No decision gets made without emotion.” (18:17-18:19 | Tim) “Tackle your hardest problem, the one that requires the most conscious thought, first.” (24:46-24:51 | Tim)LinksConnect with Welcome to ElomaInstagram: @welcometoelomaWebsite: WelcometoEloma.comWeekly Email Newsletter: bit.ly/RIXEmail Connect with Tim AshTim's website: https://TimAsh.comPrimal Bain: https://PrimalBrain.com Details here: https://acetheagenda.com/tim-ash-for-event-planners/Connect with KileySocial: @kileypeters + Linkedin.com/in/kileypetersWebsites: RAYNEIX.com ,
Today's Flash Back Friday Episode is from Episode #222, which originally aired on March 26, 2019. Kevin Bupp welcomes you to another episode of the Real Estate Investing for Cash Flow Podcast with real estate investment veteran Welcome Wilson, who shares anecdotes rooted in incredibly rich personal experience during his 6 decades in real estate development. Welcome is the founder and chairman of the Board of Welcome Group, a privately held real estate development firm that owns 90 manufacturing and industrial facilities comprising 4 million square feet of space in Texas. He has developed 8,000 home sites in 4 counties. He has also developed apartments, retail centers, office buildings, and a hotel. Quotes: "Never go against your gut instinct because the expert tells you something like an engineer or an architect and then in your gut you know he's wrong. Go with your gut because your gut knows more about it than he does." "To succeed in business, you need to have guts and determination. Guts and determination. When he said guts, he didn't mean the guts to get into a fight. He meant the guts to make a pitch to somebody important that's highly in your favor and be able to keep a straight face and look him in the eye and be sincere." "Don't let success go to your head. The point is, in a good economy, everything works. Everything works. And you're not invincible. And when the economy turns, practically nothing works and you can't assume that everything is going to work out. You have to prepare for the worst because it's coming." "One rule that I always had is, if you have five and part of the things to do today, start with the most difficult one first. Do the most difficult one first." "Having the right partners and the right friends are everything in business. You need to give your partners credit. And by the way, don't ever issue an ultimatum especially to your spouse. Ultimatums do not work."

I have so much time available in my day. I always know exactly what I'm going to do, and when I'm going to do it. I start and finish it without distractions,' said no one, ever — ever — especially in this world. The dental practice is crazy. We're always pulled in a million directions. That's the nature of the beast. Without a plan for our days, we end up functioning, always, in reactive mode.

In this episode, I interview Nicole Baldinu, an entrepreneur and Co-Founder of WebinarNinja & The $100 MBA. She's based in Sydney, Australia. Nicole was an ESL teacher for 12 years, went to film school, and then pursued a career in entrepreneurship. After working as an ESL teacher, Nicole decided to co-develop an idea, which is The $100 MBA that was launched in 2013; later on, WebinarNinja, which was established in 2014, earned 1 million ARR in USD in 2021. According to Nicole, the approach that small-medium business owners should develop and maintain is having an optimal state of mind because that's where your productivity depends. She said, “So the ability to call yourself out, when you recognize you're actually not in an optimal state of mind… realizing that hang on and making an emotional decision.” This Cast Covers: How Troy found Nicole Baldinu. Webinars and Podcasts. Nicole's journey before heading out as an entrepreneur. Alpha and Beta stages of The $100 MBA and WebinarNinja. What is The $100 MBA? What is WebinarNinja? How both companies are funded. Having a healthy peer system, mentors, and coaches. Keeping an optimal state of mind. The importance of resiliency.

We want to bring these things to your attention, so you are aware they are out there and provide some info on how you can protect yourself. There are so many tips in this episode.

Levin is a nationally recognized expert on cybersecurity, privacy, identity theft, fraud, and personal finance and has distinguished himself as a fierce consumer advocate for the past 50 years. Former Director of the New Jersey Division of Consumer Affairs, Levin is the founder of CyberScout and co-founder of Credit.com.

Always question. Always verify" - Adam K. Levin “There are a lot of websites that are fabulous and you can see a wide array of opportunities there, in terms of dresses. But if a dress seems just way too inexpensive to be real, it probably is. So, you could buy it and it shows up, and let's say it shows up 3 or 4 weeks before the wedding, and it is a knock off what you thought you were getting.” - Adam K. Levin “It's always important to check with the concierge at the hotel you're staying at to make sure you're making the right move. Now listen, a lot of these hotels, their people are getting a bit from different attractions that you can go to. But at the same point, I would still rather go to a concierge at a hotel that I trusted, then to say ‘oh this looks fun, interesting, and I've never heard of this before.' There may be a reason why.” - Adam K. Levin “Remember, when you're telling people where you are, you're telling people where you're not.” - Adam K.

Inspired by Lucy Morgan and other award-winning journalists, Pamela followed her passion into journalism, focusing on character and the human interest aspect. Growing up in Florida and having foster siblings shaped her view of the world and her understanding of people from all walks of life and contributed to her success as a journalist, writer, speaker, producer, and entrepreneur. Pamela is an award-winning, multi-channel creative writer, producer, and storytelling entrepreneur. Through her company, Hold This While IP Productions, she's collaborated with top-flight professionals to shepherd heartfelt, funny, and transcendent human stories, focusing most often on stories and works of women who are over 50. Her work in progress includes a screenplay she wrote about women creating their own age-in-place future and the true story of a middle-aged reporter who became the first woman to earn a Pulitzer Prize for investigative journalism. In 2022 she will be adapting a New York Times best-selling, menopause-themed novel and a feature screenplay adaptation of her recently released book about a women environmentalist. Pamela gives meaningful time to non-profit passions.

Find Joseph at: https://www.josephwarren.net/blowuprocks.htmlJosephs podcast: Your FIRST $100KIn this week's episode, Matthew and Kim talk to Joseph and Falon Warren. Coming up on their two-year wedding anniversary they share a daughter and baby on the way. These two really prove opposites do attract. Coming from polar opposite upbringings they each brought unique learned behaviors into their relationship. One being the quiet, non-confrontational partner and the other being the ‘say it how it is' partner, they had to learn and adapt to become the kickass couple they are today. Tune in to hear their take on parenting, conflict resolution, and transforming negative behaviors for the better. Key Topics:-Being a united front in front of children -How to improve communication -Marriage reset -The problem with a lack of conflict Quotes: “Never fight in public, never correct your spouse in public… always correct each other behind closed doors, always complement each other in public.” -Joseph “Compliment your spouse even if you're mad at them, even if you disagree with them, have their back in front of the kids, and then go behind closed doors and say I completely disagree with that decision let's talk about it.” -Joseph “We both said prior to marriage, divorce is not in our vocabulary. So if we're getting married we are fully 100% committed... there is no just-in-case for us.” - Falon “You get out a piece of paper and a pen… you sit down together… and say there are some things I want to get off my chest...and it sets up a super safe feeling environment where I can say how I feel to my husband and he's not responding… he's just writing down notes and then it's his turn” -Falon “For the first time, it was a year into the marriage… and the first year we had never gotten into a fight in the 2 years we dated, an argument, a disagreement and that was really concerning me.” Joseph “The more I speak up, the more often I do it, the more often I go to him and say, hey I'm feeling this way, or thinking this, the easier it gets each time because every time I do it he's responding with love and forgiveness.” -Falon“You don't love people the way you want to love them, you love them the way they want to be loved and what they need and I think that's a real pearl that all couples struggle with even if you know it doesn't mean you do it.” -Matthew “If we looked at a human thing that makes our marriage work it's [that] we laugh a lot, we play a lot, we poke at each other a lot, were playful and child-like spirits… if we're not taking ourselves too seriously individually and collective then that joy just seeps through the marriage.”- Joseph “My dysfunctional brain didn't recognize [Fallon] as that Godly girl that answers prayer. Instead, my dysfunctional brain saw her a boring, plain, ordinary not attractive to me, not my type because she was emotionally healthy and that was foreign to me.”- Joseph Follow us on socials Instagram: @kickasscouplesnation Facebook: @kickasscouplesnation Twitter: @kickasscoupleFor access to workshops with professional therapists, keynote speakers, hot seat training and more exclusive content join our online learning community at: https://matthewphoffman.comPre-order ‘Kickass Husband: Winning at Life, Marriage, and Sex' by Matthew Hoffman at https://matthewphoffman.com/ And don't forget to leave us a review! n at

Kevin Bupp welcomes you to another episode of the Real Estate Investing for Cash Flow Podcast with real estate investment veteran Welcome Wilson, who shares anecdotes rooted in incredibly rich personal experience during his 6 decades in real estate development. Welcome is the founder and chairman of the Board of Welcome Group, a privately held real estate development firm that owns 90 manufacturing and industrial facilities comprising 4 million square feet of space in Texas. He has developed 8,000 home sites in 4 counties. He has also developed apartments, retail centers, office buildings, and a hotel. Quotes: "Never go against your gut instinct because the expert tells you something like an engineer or an architect and then in your gut you know he's wrong. Go with your gut because your gut knows more about it than he does." "To succeed in business, you need to have guts and determination. Guts and determination. When he said guts, he didn't mean the guts to get into a fight. He meant the guts to make a pitch to somebody important that's highly in your favor and be able to keep a straight face and look him in the eye and be sincere." "Don't let success go to your head. The point is, in a good economy, everything works. Everything works. And you're not invincible. And when the economy turns, practically nothing works and you can't assume that everything is going to work out. You have to prepare for the worst because it's coming." "One rule that I always had is, if you have five and part of the things to do today, start with the most difficult one first. Do the most difficult one first." "Having the right partners and the right friends are everything in business. You need to give your partners credit. And by the way, don't ever issue an ultimatum especially to your spouse. Ultimatums do not work."

Brad catches up with Guinness World Record holding ultra-endurance athlete Tom Seabourne, a professor of Exercise Physiology at Northeast Texas Community College who has pushed the limits of human endurance with numerous finishes in what Outside magazine calls the toughest athletic event in the world: The non-stop solo bicycle Race Across America (RAAM). Tom and Brad reminisce about the old days where Tom was on the cheapest crew in the history of the race, while Brad was part of Johnny G’s most expensive crew in the history of the race. Tom was 103 miles from the finish line at 3,000 miles when he was eliminated on time. Heartbreak, but it got him “addicted” to the event, which he went on to finish several times. Cycling over 300 miles for 22 hours a day is pretty tough, but Tom’s crew follies were epic. Once, his team lost him in the California desert soon after the start. Another time his relay team members bailed in Utah! Tom also set a Guinness World record for the longest stationary bike ride of 185 hours - over 7 days (watching The Office re-runs helped pass the time)! The record performance, notwithstanding the “urine explosion” incident, that you have to hear to believe. As a “horrible carb addict” during his ultramarathon cycling days, Tom actually developed Type 1.5 diabetes (fasting glucose 450!) despite being at 5% body fat. He also developed atrial fibrillation and atrial flutter, which are now becoming commonplace maladies among extreme endurance athletes. Learn what’s happening in the mind of an ultra king during these long efforts, which Tom describes as a flow-like experience. Brad welcomes Tom Seabourne who is doing amazing athletic exploits while battling various health conditions. [00:00:16] What is the Race Across America (RAAM)? What was Tom's experience? [00:01:45] How did Tom's plantar fasciitis get cured? [00:08:28] What is entailed in being on the crew for this race? [00:09:45] Never try something without having the training or having sponsors for it! [00:16:26] He had a history of horrible eating. [00:20:53] What about calories in and calories out? [00:23:35] What happened when Tom did the record-setting ride on the Spinner bike? [00:25:01] Tom talks about his atrial fibrillation. [00:31:35] Has Tom changed his approach to training since the heart problems? Is he addicted? [00:35:33] Does Brad think about going back to the triathlon? [00:39:07] Is something special about the sort of meditative experience we have when riding? [00:40:57] What is a Type 1.5 diabetic? How is he handling it? What is the difference between Type 1 and 2? [00:53:27] What is the ablation procedure for atrial fibrillation? Don't wait too long to take care of yourself.

Many of those years were living in the rock & roll party world of (yes you guessed it.... Sex, Drugs, Rock & Roll). Sheryl was trained in classic ballet and met Alice when she was 18 years old and selected to be in one of his shows. She barely knew about rock and roll at the time.

The Teen Center gives kids a safe place to gather, feel safe and explore their music talents when that would otherwise not be available.
