Welcome back to Impact Theory with Tom Bilyeu! In today's riveting episode, Tom Bilyeu dives headfirst into some of the most pressing and controversial topics unfolding on the world stage and right here at home. From breaking down reports about former President Trump's provocative letter regarding Greenland, to unraveling the escalating tensions within NATO, Tom Bilyeu doesn't shy away from the complex dynamics of realpolitik and what it means when world leaders let personal grievances drive global policies. You'll also hear Tom Bilyeu tackle the state of American debt, the fragility of the U.S. dollar as the world reserve currency, and the very real second-order consequences of international economic maneuvers. We then pivot to a heated discussion on the unrest in Minnesota, exploring the social and psychological underpinnings sparking protests, and what history teaches us about populism and cycles of conflict. But that's just the beginning. This episode also unpacks the rising call on both sides of the political aisle for prosecuting opponents, drawing a dire warning about the risks of mutually assured destruction in American politics. Plus, get an eye-opening analysis of government fraud, wasteful spending, and the machinations behind the scenes with programs like welfare and welfare fraud in Minnesota. And as always, Tom Bilyeu will challenge you to look beyond the headlines, question your programming as an “NPC,” and break the cycles that keep us divided. You won't want to miss this wide-ranging, deeply thought-provoking episode that asks: in an age of polarization, can we still find a path back to reason, virtue, and progress? Let's jump in.

Welcome back to Impact Theory with Tom Bilyeu. In this episode, Tom dives deep into the unprecedented era of global disruption we're all witnessing. With Trump's dramatic pivot from peacemaker to power broker, the rules of world order are being rewritten right before our eyes. Tom breaks down how America's shifting strategies—from military posturing over Greenland to aggressive moves in Venezuela and Iran—reflect a high-stakes "dominance or bust" approach that could either solidify American prosperity or push us closer to economic instability and global conflict. You'll hear how the breakdown of the liberal world order, runaway inflation, and growing inequality have set the stage for a populist surge, with Trump acting as both a product and agent of this chaos. Tom explores the historical patterns behind today's dangers, like Thucydides Trap, and what it means for the rivalry between the U.S. and China. Most importantly, he'll guide you through what all these seismic changes could mean for your finances and future—and why, even when times seem rigged and uncertain, you can still win if you know how to play the game. Get ready for a no-nonsense, eye-opening look at power, politics, and how to navigate a world where only the paranoid survive. Let's get into it.

Rick Gardiner is the Founder and CEO of iAffiliate Management, a boutique performance marketing agency helping DTC e-commerce brands grow revenue through high-impact affiliate and partner programs. With over 20 years of experience, Rick has helped brands — from fast-growing startups to established names like Groupon and Home Chef — turn affiliate marketing into a scalable revenue engine. A former Division I athlete turned entrepreneur, he brings a disciplined, team-first approach and a passion for building aligned, high-value partnerships in an ever-evolving affiliate landscape. In this episode… Growing a brand isn't just about products — it's about partnerships that expand reach, influence, and revenue. Many companies struggle to use affiliate marketing and strategic collaborations effectively, leaving money and opportunities on the table. How can brands leverage these channels to grow smarter and faster? According to Rick Gardiner, a seasoned performance marketing expert, the key is to focus on strategic, high-quality partnerships rather than quantity. He emphasizes the importance of aligning affiliate programs with content creators, influencers, and PR efforts while avoiding pitfalls such as paid search conflicts and compliance issues. By taking a relationship-driven approach, brands can drive measurable growth, stand out in crowded markets, and turn niche products into national successes. Real-world examples — from helping saturated brands gain market share to elevating smaller brands through mass media placements — show the power of thoughtful, well-executed collaborations. In this episode of the Inspired Insider Podcast, Dr. Jeremy Weisz sits down with Rick Gardiner, Founder and CEO of iAffiliate Management, to discuss scaling growth through affiliate and strategic partnerships. They explore building quality partnerships, navigating compliance and tech tools, and leveraging cross-brand collaborations. Rick also shares tips for integrating affiliates into broader revenue strategies.

On this episode of HALO Talks, host Pete Moore sits down with Chris Rotondi, franchisee of a Serotonin Center in Greenwich, Connecticut. From his early days as the 13th employee at Shift4 to his foray into the HALO (Health, Active Lifestyle, Outdoor) space, Chris talks about his entrepreneurial path and passion for biohacking, longevity, and helping others transform their lives. Listen now as Pete and Chris discuss the hard truths behind starting and scaling a HALO business, the importance of authentic local marketing, and the unique advantages (and sometimes challenges!) of joining a strong franchise network. Whether you're interested in the business side of wellness, new trends in anti-aging, or just enjoy hearing candid stories from the front lines of entrepreneurship, this episode delivers plenty of insights and takeaways. (And if you missed it, we interviewed Seratonin Center CEO Eric Casaburi a while back. Link down below.)  On expanding within a franchise, Rotondi states, "After your first store it gets a lot easier to take where you are in that first location, and start the second one from that same level, rather than going back and having to relearn all those rookie mistakes that maybe you made when you first opened." Key themes discussed Chris's inspiration to open a Serotonin Center. The importance of word-of-mouth and community marketing. Challenges and rewards of operating a franchise. The evolving mainstream acceptance of biohacking and longevity practices. Collaborations and partnerships with local businesses for mutual growth. Scaling, staffing, and operational complexities in health franchises. A Few Key Takeaways:  1.Entrepreneurial Path & Inspiration: Rotondi shared how his extensive experience at Shift4, where he was surrounded by entrepreneurs and watched a company scale from startup to IPO, inspired him to eventually strike out on his own. This not only shaped his mindset but also gave him the confidence and motivation to take the leap into business ownership. 2. Choosing Serotonin Centers Was a Passion Play: Rather than conducting an exhaustive analysis of possible business options, Chris says that he was immediately drawn to Serotonin and felt a strong alignment with the concept. He dabbled in real estate but realized he needed a business that delivered a tangible positive impact—and found that in the HALO space. 3. Transformative Results Make the Business Rewarding: The most fulfilling aspect of running the center is seeing noticeable transformations in clients—whether it's 35-40 pounds of weight loss or improved health outcomes. These stories not only validate the mission but also create infectious momentum through word of mouth. 4. Franchising as a Strategic Advantage: Rotondi also emphasizes the value of being part of a franchise system, especially in a highly regulated, evolving industry like health and longevity. The franchisor provides critical infrastructure, best practices, and ongoing support, allowing franchisees to scale faster and avoid common pitfalls that solo operators might typically face. 5. Local Networking & Authentic Marketing Are Key: For growth, Chris focuses on the importance of networking and building authentic relationships in his local market (Greenwich, CT). Word of mouth remains king, and collaborations with other health and wellness businesses (like co-branded menu items with nearby cafés) drive new client acquisition and community engagement.

If you've ever signed a contract and immediately felt that "uh-oh" feeling… this episode is for you. We're talking about garbage contracts, hidden clauses, and the fine print that can quietly destroy your profit, your schedule, and your sanity. Just because a client is big doesn't mean the deal is good, and in lawn care, landscaping, and snow removal, the wrong agreement can turn into unpaid work, chargebacks, endless scope creep, and zero leverage when things go sideways.

Welcome back to Impact Theory with Tom Bilyeu. In this thought-provoking episode, Tom sits down with renowned divorce attorney and author, James sexton, for a candid conversation that cuts through the romantic clichés to examine what really makes modern relationships thrive—or crumble. From the opening moments, James sexton challenges some of the most deeply held assumptions about love and marriage, describing marriage as a "technology that fails catastrophically 56% of the time," and emphasizing the practical, even economic, nature of romantic relationships in today's world. Together, James sexton and Tom Bilyeu dive into why the idea of marriage as a simple, timeless institution is not just outdated, but potentially dangerous if entered into blindly. They explore how evolving gender roles, economic shifts, and the explosion of social media have completely changed the game for couples, leading to confusion, higher expectations, and often, disappointment. James sexton brings his unique perspective as someone who has seen countless relationships unravel, and he's not afraid to ask the tough questions—like why we don't treat the most important partnership of our lives with the same strategic care we bring to business or personal growth. Most importantly, this episode is packed with actionable insights. James sexton and Tom Bilyeu discuss the importance of defining roles, setting expectations, and building regular check-ins—treating marriage as not just an emotional bond, but a dynamic, evolving exchange of value. They reveal the often-overlooked rituals, mindsets, and communication techniques that can help couples avoid the common pitfalls and stay connected through life's challenges. Whether you're single, dating, or decades into marriage, this conversation will challenge you to rethink what commitment means, and inspire you to take a more intentional, proactive approach to building lasting love. You won't want to miss the hard-earned wisdom in this episode of Impact Theory.

The trucking industry operates on razor-thin margins and highly optimized schedules. Think free delivery from click to your door in 4 hours. Decarbonizing that kind of industry requires more than green intentions—it requires a highly reliable solution that drives real economic value. In the push to electrify large trucks, we often focus on the vehicles. But this rollout requires industrial-scale access to electricity in the context of an often-challenged distribution grid.My guest today is Patrick Sullivan, CEO of EV Realty.  Building on decades of renewable energy development experience, navigating electricity grid constraints, Patrick and team are enabling the EV semi-truck rollout today.We discuss the coming wave of EV trucks, the realities of the freight supply chain, and how EV Realty is building a network that works for the bottom line, local communities, and the broader climate.Links:EV Realty WebsitePatrick Sullivan – CEO of EV RealtyEpisode recorded  Email your feedback to Chad, Gil, Hilary, and Guy at climatepositive@hasi.com.

Patrick McKenzie (patio11) sits down with Intercom co-founder Des Traynor to examine customer support through the lens of Conway's Law, Goodhart's Law, and several decades of accumulated organizational scar tissue.

Scaling often looks like momentum on the surface: more pipeline, more headcount, more pressure from boards and capital. But underneath? Many leaders feel the strain of decisions moving faster than their systems can support. In this conversation, Mark Roberge sits down to unpack why scaling is not a milestone, but a system that must be intentionally designed and continuously recalibrated. Drawing on his experience as HubSpot's founding CRO, a Harvard Business School lecturer, and the author of The Science of Scaling, Mark offers a clear, data-driven perspective on how leaders can move beyond reactive growth and build systems that scale with intention.Mark Roberge is the founding Chief Revenue Officer of HubSpot, a senior lecturer at Harvard Business School, co-founder of Stage 2 Capital, and the author of The Science of Scaling and The Sales Acceleration Formula.

In this episode, I'm sharing the real story behind why I wrote Soulfire, what Spirit asked of me, what it took to birth it, and why this book feels bigger than anything I've ever created.   If you've ever felt called to something more… If you know you're here for a soul mission but traditional paths don't fit… If you've tried following the “right” strategies and still felt misaligned… This conversation is for you.   In this session, I open up about my journey as a spiritual entrepreneur, the gaps I saw in the business world for light leaders, and why Soulfire was co-created as a coded activation, not just a book. This work bridges spirituality and business, soul and strategy, inner alignment and outer success.   You'll hear how Spirit led every step, why fifth-dimensional business follows different rules, and how soul alignment, not hustle, became the foundation of everything I built.   This is an invitation to lead differently. To build differently. To remember why you came here. If Soulfire is calling you, trust that nudge.

Welcome back to Impact Theory with Tom Bilyeu. In today's episode, Tom Bilyeu and Drew dive headfirst into the chaos of our current global and domestic landscape. From escalating protests and a rising death toll in Iran, to political drama between Trump and Fed Chair Jerome Powell, and dramatic scenes in Minnesota where ICE agents face off with angry crowds—this episode has it all. The conversation starts with Tom Bilyeu setting the stage for these “transitional times” and wastes no time getting into contentious international moves, including Trump's provocative statements about Greenland and the potential for U.S. military action. We get real-time analysis of the crackdown in Iran, including censorship, mass detentions, and China's brush-off of international concerns. On the home front, Tom Bilyeu and Drew break down fury over welfare fraud in Minnesota, the legal complexities of freezing federal funding, and the heated aftermath of a controversial ICE shooting. The hosts also tackle the broader implications: are we seeing the unraveling of global order, or just another swing in the historical cycle of power and protest? You'll hear blunt takes on political ego, the emotional traps driving national policy, and reflections on the future of democracy, virtue, and economic survival. If you're looking for sharp insight, a touch of gallows humor, and honest debate on where humanity is headed, you won't want to miss this deep, no-holds-barred conversation. Buckle up—this is Impact Theory at its most unfiltered.

In this episode of Impact Theory, Tom Bilyeu takes us on a riveting deep dive into recent U.S. actions in Venezuela, challenging the mainstream narratives about oil and drugs. Instead, he reveals the far more complex—and dangerous—geopolitical chess game unfolding between the United States and China. Drawing vivid parallels with history, from the Cuban Missile Crisis to the collapse of great empires, Tom Bilyeu explains how Venezuela became a pivotal pawn in a new era of great power politics. You'll hear how economic collapse, foreign influence, and a return to aggressive power struggles are shaping a world where peace is the exception, not the rule. With the stakes higher than ever, Tom Bilyeu unpacks the potential consequences—for America, Venezuela, and the global order—of bold U.S. intervention and what it means as Cold War 2.0 heats up.

If your business only works when you feel motivated… you don't actually have a business.You have a mood-dependent income.And in this episode, I'm breaking down exactly why that's the fastest way to stay stuck—no matter how talented, experienced, or capable you are.This conversation is for the agent or entrepreneur who looks successful on paper but feels frustrated behind the scenes.
