Can nice guys really finish first in business?My producer, and good friend, Dave Aizer slid into the host seat this week and grilled me about the one edge that never goes out of style: running a company with rock-solid ethics.I walk through how we grew YMP Real Estate from a single duplex to $1.5 billion in assets while raising 11 kids, why I've turned down seven-figure paydays that didn't feel right, and how over-communicating lets me sleep soundly even on the craziest days.

Episode 128!Joining us in the studio today is Adrienne Green.  Adrienne learned early in her finance job and later as a high school math teacher that she didn't enjoy being stuck inside, tied to an office, classroom, or desk.  She got her start in real estate without any mentors or family influences by “house hacking” her basement.  As she began to invest in other real estate, she began to understand the struggles of being a solopreneur in real estate.  She was doing everything alone—managing tenants, handling maintenance calls, and tracking expenses. Her portfolio depended entirely on her, leaving no time to focus on growth.  Without systems, scaling only created more stress. Every new property just meant more work.  She was driven to transform her portfolio by running it like a business. Adrienne began creating streamlined systems, hiring a virtual team, and automating key operations, turning her hands-on, time-consuming portfolio into a scalable, profitable business. Now, as a high-energy speaker and coach, she helps other real estate investors do the same so they can scale their portfolio without working 24/7.  Tune in to hear Adrienne share how she's scaled her business and now travels the world with her family in the relentless pursuit of her dreams. Enjoy!  ============================================================================Connect with Adrienne here: Website: https://adriennegreen.com/Instagram: @arealgreenhttps://www.instagram.com/arealgreen/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ARealGreen123/Thanks for listening!

Would you rather make $1 million by serving 1,000 clients, or the same amount by serving just 100? Success isn't just about the size of your paycheck. It's about the impact you make and the systems you build to create something that lasts.  Kelton Todd knows this well – after moving beyond solo grinding, he built a scalable business that unlocked real growth and freedom.
