Straight out of high school and already flipping houses. No degree, no plan - just figuring it out one deal at a time. What started as one flip turned into eighty. Dominique Gunderson built her real estate business completely remotely, managing teams in another state, working with contractors she'd never met in person, and raising money through real relationships instead of pitches. In this episode, Heather and Dominique Gunderson get real about what it takes to build something before you feel “ready.” They talk about the chaos of flipping, the difference between working in your business and on it, and how chasing more isn't always the move. If you've ever dreamed about building freedom your own way, this one's for you.

Gary shares how what started as flipping homes soon evolved into a thriving furnished apartment business with a global reach.

His story highlights the creativity and determination it takes to build a business that lasts through changing markets. Gary also emphasizes the power of customer service in a digital world, explaining how real connections and quick responses set Furnished Quarters apart.

Before, co-founding Furnished Quarters, Gary worked as a certified public accountant and attorney in New York and Connecticut. With a sharp sense of where the real estate industry was heading - and inspired by the Brown family's long-standing family business in furniture sales - Gary, alongside brother Steve Brown, identified an untapped need for high-quality furnished accommodations in New York City. In 1998, the brothers founded Furnished Quarters to serve that need. Starting with a handful of furnished apartments in a New York City brownstone, the venture saw immediate success, with high demand leading to continued growth for over 25 years. Gary has spent most of his career developing and investing in Manhattan real estate and continually identifies key trends and opportunities within the alternative accommodations space.   As always, we would like to hear from you!

Concentration beats diversification. One stock. That's all Jaden Sterling bought during the 1990s. It tripled, became capital for 125 real estate deals, and eventually funded Sterling Stock Picker, a stock-picking platform now serving 3,000 investors. What most financial advisors don't tell you: diversification is what you do when you don't know what you're doing. When Jaden's clients at Merrill Lynch held 4-6 solid companies, they were pressured to sell and diversify into mutual funds. The math later showed holding those original positions would've beaten all the churn. The path to real wealth isn't about spreading money thin. It's about focused conviction in what you actually understand. I sat down with Jaden to talk about deal structures across real estate, concentrated stock investing, raising capital from customers instead of VCs, and why your relationship with money mirrors your relationship with yourself.
