In this episode, I want to say something clearly—and maybe a little provocatively:Stability isn't something you earn later. It's something you design early—or you pay for it. Dearly.If you're leading a nonprofit right now and feeling overwhelmed by how hard it all feels, I want you to lean in. Because what I'm talking about in this episode might just be the shift you've been looking for.So many of the leaders I work with assume the chaos and pressure are temporary—that things will ease up after the next grant lands, or once a new hire settles in. But I want to challenge that belief. Because the truth is: chaos doesn't resolve itself.

This is get rich education. Keith Weinhold 1:30 Welcome to GRE from Dar es Salaam Tanzania to Darlington, South Carolina, and across 188 nations worldwide. I'm Keith Weinhold, and this is get rich education the voice of real estate investing since 2014 and it's a new year, part of the reason why you need to build durable wealth for yourself is actually not to be wealthy. It's really to avoid a lack of wealth. It's in order to pad yourself against poverty. Now, shortly, I want to talk to you more aspirationally if you are or soon plan to make 500k per year or more. Keith Weinhold 2:15 But first, there are a number of studies that show that beyond a certain level, more wealth barely increases your happiness level. In fact, if you ask many people, they say that doubling their income or doubling their net worth is what they really want, like, that's their goal. Like, in their mind, that's the benchmark in which they've made it. And you know what, when they double their income, though, then they want to double it again. They think that that is the next benchmark. So there can be this endless amount of wanting, because once you've doubled, you just want to keep doubling. But what's really more important is padding against money problems, because if having a little more doesn't change your happiness much, well, it's poverty that can really diminish a level of happiness and fulfillment in your life. So money problems don't just hurt your wallet. They actually hurt your emotions. And this isn't just some motivational poster idea, the statistics are clear. Multiple studies show that when money is scarce, when paying the regular bills feels like a monthly street fight, people report more sadness, more worry and even depression, not just sometimes, but constantly. The reality is that about 71% of Americans say that money is a major source of stress. My gosh, more than seven out of 10. So that's not a fringe category. That's the norm that say money is a major source of stress. Another study found that 42% of adults say money negatively affects their mental health. So close to half of the people walking around you right now feel emotionally beat up by their financial situation, and the gap gets even wider when you compare groups, when people experience serious financial hardship, nearly half, 49% show signs of depression among people without any financial hardship, only about 11% of that group show signs of depression. And Northwestern Mutual did an extensive study on all this. So it's not just a small difference, it's a completely different emotional reality, almost like two separate worlds. To put it plainly. For you, money will not guarantee happiness, but a lack of money can absolutely fuel sadness, and this matters. Because financial confidence isn't just about dollars. It's about dignity. It's about feeling like you're able to breathe, and it's about believing that your future can be bigger than your past. I mean, the research also shows the relationship flows in both directions. Money stress can make mental health worse, and poor mental health can make financial decision making harder. So it's sort of this loop, this cycle. And what breaks the cycle? It's not luck. It's not hoping the economy magically fixes all of its problems. It is going on offense, taking steps that build security instead of surrender, for most people, that turning point comes when they start owning assets, not just paying bills. It comes when money stops being a source of fear and it starts being a tool. Because though we focus on real estate investing here at GRE but ultimately it is a lifestyle improvement show. And before we're done today, I'm going to talk about what you can actionably do to go on offense. Now, what if you already have a higher income, or you expect to make a high income in the near term, if you're earning roughly $500,000 per year or more, and you value time efficiency in making sure that you don't live a rough quality of life. You are on the threshold of a tier that helps ensure that you can avoid some misery. Yes, there is a step change here that can help ensure you have a higher standard of living. Do you know what I might be talking about? Any idea 500k of income is where it begins now. It's only beginning here. At this point, to make sense, where you tilt into starting to fly private instead of flying commercial. Yeah, private flights. Now your situation is going to depend on more than just the income. It's whether or not you're single or you have kids and more, but it's at this income level where you can start to cover a $10,000 flight without biting into your essential living expenses. It's most justifiable when your time savings or your productivity gains translate into real value. I'm talking about things like business deals, meetings and schedules and the benefits of flying privately are pretty significant. Time efficiency is the real superpower here, drive up to the plane, wheels up in minutes. The flexibility is there. You can leave pretty much when you want. You can change your flight plans mid trip if you need to. You get access to smaller airports. That means you can land closer to your final destination and skip big city traffic congestion. You've got privacy and security, no crowds, no TSA stuff. You've got quality of experience, comfort, quiet cabins, custom catering, no competing for overhead bin space. Now even affordable private is still pretty expensive. It is substantially more than first class commercial seats, and I have had limited experience flying private, but at 500k of income, flying private can still feel like a stretch, even though it's doable for you, a more comfortable range is a million dollars or more of annual income, that's when private flights feel much easier to justify for business or lifestyle. Now, with $2 million of annual income or more, most heavy private flyers live here in this range, the $2 million plus income level, they can charter, they can fractionally own, or they can use memberships, all with less stress. When you earn this much, and if you're ultra high net worth, we're talking about $5 million worth of income plus or $20 million worth of net worth plus, well, then private flying is really commonplace. This is where you often have a personal jet, concierge services and flexibility on demand. So as the first episode of the year here, I want to give you some opportunity to dream and goal set. Yeah, you need to stretch out and give space to your aspirations sometimes, and this is a good time to do that, really, though, a more important reason for increasing your income and net worth is that it helps you avoid the discomfort of poverty. But yeah, come on, if nothing else, can you believe that before every commercial flight you have to hear that nonsense about how to inflate a raft if you're. Plane crashes in the water, or you could use your seat as a personal flotation device. Come on your seat. Can't even support your back for a three hour flight. If there's ever been a reason to invest Well, it's so that you never have to hear that stuff again before every flight chase Keith Weinhold 10:19 last week here on the show, you'll learn more about how stable real estate prices are, why prices have never crashed in your entire life, and also why they can't double in one year. Real Estate is too slow moving 30 days between you making your offer and you closing the deal, that's actually considered pretty fast. In fact, if national home prices ever crash, I will legally change my first name to Fabrice, yes, Fabrice, I would also do that if they doubled in a year. It is almost impossible for either of those things to happen. You learned about how these things have not happened in your entire lifetime on last week's show, yes, even in 2008 in the last 85 years, nominal home prices have risen every single year, except seven of them now. Why is that? Why are the prices of US housing so resilient and just keep going up up up, almost inexorably? Well, it's actually more than just the main well documented reasons that you know about and that we've talked about here. It's about more than these attributes, like population growth, household formation, wage growth, inflation, eroding the currency and land scarcity in desirable areas beyond all of those, one reason that home values just keep going up, up up and are expected to rise again this year is something that We have not discussed yet, and that is government intervention? Yes, in the US and a lot of world places, housing is not a free market. We have a free ish market that sort of comes with training wheels and support animals. Think about how the government helps ensure that home prices stay propped up even through most recessions. We're talking about attributes like ever expanding loan access and mortgage interest deductibility. Then there's depreciation in write offs for investors like us and property tax structures that lag market value when loans have lower down payment requirements or a lowering of credit score requirements and ever expanding loan limits in terms of dollar amounts, well, that increases the demand for those that have the capacity to pay, and it nudges up prices even more incentives, like deducting your mortgage interest in tax depreciation when you don't even have a real expense, but yet you get to write it off anyway. It all heaps on the government driven demand for real estate Now none of these individual things, these government interventions, raise prices overnight, they increase demand structurally. There's evidence that the government is doing even more in recent years to prop up housing demand than they have in the past. This is increasingly a propensity to not let housing fail like it did in 2008 I mean, just look at covid During 2020, and 2021, what a glaring example of how government will prop up home values and not let them fall down if you lost your job during covid. Oh, we'll give you mortgage loan forbearance. That's where you could skip. Oh, just say nine monthly payments, and then you can just tack those nine payments onto the end of your 30 year loan and make those payments decades from now. There was a foreclosure moratorium in effect then too, so you've got forbearance and low rates and stimulus checks and a ban on foreclosures. Well, all of that helped borrowers make payments, and that supported home price growth. There was no fire sailing, really, that could have taken place then, and you will recall that during that time period, in fact, the year 2021 national home prices soared 19% so housing is not a completely free market. You really don't have to look very far to know that. I mean, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are both still government sponsored and still in conservatorship. And here's the thing, so far, I've only talked about how government has propped up the demand side. Side of the market. I've only talked about half of it. Don't forget the sometimes unintentional supply restriction the governments induce as well keeping housing supply in check. Well, that helps drive price appreciation. I'm talking about the zoning spaghetti that new homebuilders have to navigate through the permit purgatory, minimum lot sizes that can seem larger than some European countries, environmental reviews that last longer than the movie Avengers. Endgame was that a three hour, two minute movie, all of these roadblocks limit new housing supply that makes it harder to build. So governments provide an ever present tailwind to housing values by both boosting demand and by crimping supply. Government amplifies these forces, sometimes intentionally and sometimes unintentionally, but the result is the same propping up housing values. If all these years since coming out of the Great Recession have shown us anything, and the 2020 pandemic reinforced it, it is to either own assets or get left behind. You've got to own assets or you will be left behind, and that's whether you're trying to stay away from poverty, like I talked about at the top of the show, or whether you're aiming to fly private instead of commercial, something more aspirational, really. That's the lesson I've got more straight ahead here. There will only ever be one get rich education podcast episode 587 and you're listening to it. Keith Weinhold 16:43 You know, most people think they're playing it safe with their liquid money, but they're actually losing savings accounts and bonds don't keep up when true inflation eats six or 7% of your wealth.

Listen to get rich education with Keith Weinhold, and don't quit your Daydream. You Keith, Keith Weinhold 18:45 welcome back to get rich Education. I'm your host. Keith Weinhold, we're talking about new angles with respect to how the future belongs to asset owners. Every year, people say, This is my year, but only a few actually take the action to back that up and make it come true. One thing that I've learned is that people love saying, I want an opportunity, but what they really want is certainty. Unfortunately, certainty only shows up after opportunity is gone. History is full of people who walked past moments like this now owning more of an asset like real estate today, and instead they just look and say, Oh, it's probably nothing. Well, what about alternatives? What's your employer's plan for you? I mean, really, what's a typical employer's plan for employees spend 40 years here at this desk, and I guarantee that you'll become moderately comfortable with a nice 401K balance that you can start withdrawing from by the time you're age 65 at which time you'll start paying taxes on it too. So really, that's it. That's their plan for you. Yes, that's their plan for you. Though, as you know, I do not forecast mortgage rates. No one, not one analyst or rating agency, expects mortgage rates to fall substantially any time soon as we look at the real estate landscape, in fact, among 21 different major research groups, which include PNC Bank, Redfin, Moody's, wells, Fargo, the NAR totality, if you average what their forecasts are, one year from now, mortgage rates are expected to be at the same level that they are today, which is about 6.2% if you want to add more assets, prices are probably only going to be higher one year from now. The Fed is involved in QE like behavior again, which resumed last month, that gives the effect of more money printing, and it provides an environment for a continued price run up across not just real estate, but nearly every asset class. Current CPI inflation is 2.7% and long term inflation expectations are elevated. The Fed is cutting rates. The current Fed funds rate is about 3.6% and the President wants the Fed funds rate cut to 1% central banks are stockpiling gold, and the US dollar just had its worst year since 2017 so a lot is lining up to keep supporting housing values. Now, when we zoom out, starting back in 2012 us home prices have now risen 14 years in a row, and the average annual gain since that time is about 6% which is sustainable and close to historic norms. Year after year. Some people keep waiting for the right moment, and meanwhile, the right moment just keeps passing them by. And look, now here's a really interesting way for you to look at things from a long time investor like me, I have bought a wide variety of investment real estate over the years. I bought single family homes to both live in and single family homes to rent out vacant land, agricultural parcels, small apartment buildings and larger apartment buildings on every single one at the time when I purchased it, it was the most that anyone had ever paid for that property in that property's history, and if there were bids and I ended up getting the property, then I was the highest bidder as well. So on. Effectively, every single property purchase of my life, I paid more than anyone ever. And if someone had no understanding of the real estate market. They might think that that sounded bad, like I executed with a poor strategy or a lack of experience or direction, but that's just usually how it works in real estate, with the incessant postulation of almost unceasing appreciation and inflation, and years later, when it was time for me to sell the property, what were those conditions like? What happened then? You guessed it, I sold it for the most that it had ever sold for. So for that next buyer, that was the most then that anyone had ever paid for the property in history, yet again, and if it was a bidding situation, chances are I sold it to the highest bidder. So therefore, that has nothing to do with luck, that has nothing to do with timing, that is simply being an active participant in the real estate market and enjoying the leverage and all the other benefits all the while. So history shows that trying to time things based on market conditions or what you think market conditions are going to be, that does not work. What does work is owning more assets sooner. Every property that you purchase, expect to pay more for it than anyone ever has in that property's history. And then every property that you sell down the road, expect that you're going to sell it for more than what anyone has ever sold it for. Historically, that is normal. Now if your net worth is below $1 million or even below $5 million you really can't play the game not to lose. That's what keeps people stuck. You've got to play to win. The world already has your money. If you want access to it, you have simply got to go out. Out and get it. You play offense now, and you can play defense later, when your financial position is where you want it really and here's a huge insight, more money is lost trying to avoid a downturn than is lost actually being in the market when one finally happens, like I've discussed lately, real estate price downturns are uncommon. Sitting out and waiting is a wealth killer, because even if a downturn does happen, well, if you're already invested, you are positioned for the upturn. You're going to get the full measure of the upturn. That's where the real gains are, and this is where real estate is different. Leverage just keeps working for you. In the background, your 401, k does not do that. There's no leverage beyond maybe a two to one employer match, and then you get taxed when you finally touch the money. Some people like to gamble a little play a prediction market like poly market. Have something in Bitcoin, maybe even have exposure to a risky altcoin. I guess the NFL playoffs start this coming weekend. Some people want to bet on that and have their fun. Maybe even be invested in a high flying tech stock, or even the sp500. These vehicles rarely build wealth when you're actually young enough to enjoy it, because you're probably unleveraged there, you're exposed. You've only got your dollars working for you, not others, and you sure can do some of that day to day stuff. Go on polymarket and bet on when man will first land on Mars or something. Have your fun while the real wealth is built by the quiet, slow moving leverage of your larger real estate portfolio. In the background. Real estate, you can put 20 to 25% down on a 200k income property and control the whole thing. That's what investors are doing with our GRE marketplace properties right now, often in a low cost market like, say, Kansas City or Memphis, say that, for example, you're looking to add four doors this year, four rental units. Now that might take the form of one duplex and two new build Florida single family rentals. Now, with about 250k you can control $1 million of property adding assets this year. And here at GRE our nationwide provider network connects you with the real deals, and our providers often tell us about them before the public knows, for example, the properties where the builder still in this environment buys your rate down to perhaps four and a half percent. That is still happening. And why do the properties that our GRE investment coaches connect you with seem like such good deals at times? Well, there's a few reasons for that. Investor advantage markets just intrinsically have low prices. There's no agent that you have to compensate. It's a direct model that keeps the price down. These providers provide homes in bulk that helps keep the price down. And since we're dealing with investment properties, income producing properties, there are not any of these owner occupied emotions, so you don't get unreasonable sellers that hold out for a high price because there's some sentimental attachment there, or something like that. Keith Weinhold 28:38 Let me give you three examples of real properties that our GRE investment coaching helps connect you with right now, and this is the place to be entry level homes, because entry level homes are few long term you are going to own a scarce asset that everybody wants. The first one is a brand new build single family rental in Cullman, Alabama. That's right between Birmingham and Huntsville, booming Huntsville. Now this property is currently vacant. However, it's in an A class neighborhood, so good appreciation potential, but less cash flow on this one, the rent is $2,100 the purchase price is 317k Yes, just 317k for this five bed, three bath, 2500 square foot rental, single family home. That's new build. One advantage Alabama has, and why we often have available Alabama properties is that really low property tax in that state you're going to benefit from a low fixed expense ratio over the long term. Alabama, property taxes are well under 1% per year as a percentage of the property value. In fact, at less than 410 Tax of 1% Alabama has the lowest property taxes in the entire continental United States. Only Hawaii has a lower one, where you're going to find a national average of 1% or a little more than 1% the second property is also brand new construction. It is a duplex in Goddard, Kansas, which is outside Wichita, each side of the duplex has three beds, two baths and 1300 68 square feet combined. Rents both sides are $3,500 and the purchase price is 447k and it is leased. Both sides are rented out. You can contact our free investment coaching and scoop up this or one like it today, and I'm looking at pictures of this really good looking new build duplex in the Wichita area. Looks like a two car garage on both sides, really attractive. And again, on these new builds, oftentimes the homebuilder is still buying down your mortgage rate for you, often under 5% the last one I'll mention, and I'm just giving you three samples to help give you an idea here. And if you're listening to this in a few years, you'll probably wish you could purchase these at prices this low. This last one is not new builds. Unfortunately, I can't quickly find the year of construction, but it looks older. It is a Kansas City single family rental, fully renovated. The cash flow numbers are super attractive. $2,100 rent on a purchase price of just $227,500 and free property management for two years is offered here on this renovated Kansas single family rental. Our investment coaching can answer questions about it for you. When something's renovated, you definitely want to see what the scope of work is. And there are also larger properties available. If you're looking to trade up some of your properties with accumulated equity into something else, we can help build an entire portfolio for you, or you might currently be only invested in one market, where we can help you determine what second market might make sense for you based on your time horizon and your own goals. Hey, maybe you've got a private plane in a decade kind of goal, or maybe we'll help you find out that adding more property does not make sense for you at this time in your situation, even though the opportunities are pretty good right now, because compared to two years ago, the inventory to select from is wider today, And the mortgage rates are lower now too GRE investment coaches are your free trusted advisors. It's like having a silent partner on your deal, someone who gives you insight but doesn't take any equity. There's no compensation for you to provide at all. It's about your portfolio, your goals and your direction. And our coaches also help you with services related to managing your real estate assets long term, like your tax and CPA questions, legal questions, though, that's pretty limited, because we're not attorneys here. For example, what happens if you have an appraisal surprise and the appraisal comes in lower than the amount that you've contracted to buy a property for, we help you with something like that, any inventory issues or inspection issues and property management guidance that you might need. In fact, if you've engaged with our free investment coaching in the past, even a few years ago, and we helped you find a property and say, now you have some sort of property management issue. Let us know. Keep in touch with your GRE investment coach. You tell someone like Naresh here, and he will step in. And when you set up a time to chat, which you can do at greinvestmentcoach.com There's really nothing special that you need to do to prepare if you can bring a 20% down payment. Now the ball is already rolling, and in today's environment with closing costs, that's usually about a 50k minimum. It helps if you're pre approved for a mortgage loan with Ridge lending group, or whomever your lender of choice is. What's interesting is that these deals are good. These are real estate pays five ways, properties that our coaches help connect you with. So sometimes we are buying these properties ourselves here at GRE. We have in the past, but there is no way we can buy them all, not even close. That means that an opportunity remains for you. Yes, we are real estate investors ourselves here at GRE, right now, there are better properties available than ones that we've bought ourselves recently, and there is more overall selection too. You can easily see the coach's calendar, select a time and then have a phone call or a zoom chat, whatever you like. If. From there. Our coaches usually give you their phone number, so then later, you can even text them. Our coach, Naresh, he responded to someone on Thanksgiving. That's the level of dedication here. So here's the next step. Book a time at GREinvestmentcoach.com you can do that now. That's where the calendar lives. There's no back and forth. Just pick a time right there that works. It's Free. Select a 30 minute time slot, and lately they've been available seven days a week. And you're going to walk away with clarity on your goals, your timeline and what's realistic for you, if you're tired of watching from the sidelines, tired of trying not to lose, tired of waiting for perfect conditions, and conditions are never perfect, well, this is your moment to play to win.

Most new investors never buy their first apartment building for one simple reason: They don't make enough offers. In this episode, I break down why submitting LOIs is one of the most important reps you can get in this business — and why you're not actually "locked in" just because you made an offer. We'll talk about how many LOIs you should be submitting, what they really mean, why people freeze up at this stage, and how the simple act of making offers builds skill, confidence, deal flow, and real broker relationships. If you want to become an operator, you can't sit on the sidelines overanalyzing forever. Speed matters. Reps matter. And imperfect action beats waiting to feel ready every single time. I'll also walk you through: • LOIs vs PSAs — what's actually binding and what isn't • Why submitting offers helps you sharpen your underwriting • How brokers start taking you seriously • What happens after an LOI gets accepted • The real (and limited) financial risk involved • Why the people making offers are the ones who win long-term And I end with a simple challenge: submit at least one offer this week — even if it's verbal. If you want help getting taken seriously when you show up in this business, grab my free Multifamily Credibility Kit here:
New Year's resolutions are superficial wish lists, not commitments. In this episode of the Manly Deeds Podcast, we kick off the year by breaking down why New Year's resolutions don't work, why most people quit before February, and what actually creates lasting change. We get into: • Why goals beat resolutions every time • The real difference between motivation and discipline • Why “giving yourself grace” can actually hold you back • How small wins build real momentum • Why failure isn't failure, it's feedback • And how to reset without quitting when you fall off Plus, we introduce a new segment called Truth or Cap where we debate some real-life statements most people can't agree on. If you've ever fallen off your goals, struggled to stay consistent, or felt stuck waiting to “feel motivated,” this episode is for you. 00:00:00 – Back in the Cave 00:03:00 – New Year's Resolutions Are A Waste Of Time 00:06:15 – Resolutions vs Goals: What's the Difference? 00:10:00 – Why Most People Quit Before February 00:14:00 – Setting Real Goals (Life, Marriage, Money) 00:18:00 – Why Men Avoid Planning & Fear Failing 00:21:00 – Small Wins vs Big Wins 00:24:00 – Failure Is Feedback, Not Defeat 00:27:00 – Motivation vs Discipline (Which Actually Works?) 00:31:00 – Falling Off Doesn't Mean Quit! 00:35:00 – Grace vs Standards (Hard Truths) 00:42:00 – Are You Showing Up or Just Checking the Box? 00:48:00 – TRUTH or CAP??!! 00:55:00 – Final Takeaways & Closing Thoughts!
Dr. Allison House and Shawn Zajas kick off 2026 with a raw conversation about what separates dentists who thrive from those who stall. After hosting two Olympic athletes over the holidays, Allison shares a key insight: elite performers surround themselves with coaches in every dimension of life. Not because they lack knowledge. Because growth demands outside eyes.The episode confronts a hard truth. Intelligent people can easily slide into pessimism. The data supports it. The profession faces real challenges. Yet Allison describes “learned optimism” as the deliberate choice to see opportunity alongside struggle. She traces this back to her weightlifting background with her father, who coached her to break down complex movements into fundamental pieces. The same approach works in dental practice. When systems break, you isolate the component. Fix the pull. Fix the scheduling gap. One piece at a time.Shawn shares his own revelation from years of journaling. He noticed a pattern of abandoned plans. The reason? Waiting for missing components before taking action. The fix? Move with an incomplete plan. The marketplace teaches you nothing if you stay on the sidelines.The hosts discuss the Tom Brady Super Bowl comeback against Atlanta. Down 25 points in a sport where no team had ever recovered from more than 10. On the sideline, Julian Edelman kept telling teammates: “You gotta believe. It's going to be one hell of a story.” That mindset separates practitioners who rebuild from those who quit.For dentists who logged 2025 as a loss, Allison offers a reframe. If you caused your bad year, you have control. That means you can fix it. External forces like economy and insurance leave you powerless. Personal responsibility equals personal power.The episode closes with practical wisdom: find a coach, stay in community with believers, and never wait for the perfect moment to move.

Solo Travel Adventures: Safe Travel for Women, Preparing for a Trip, Overcoming Fear, Travel Tips
Deadlines are comforting until you realize they're imaginary. After a week of health scares in our circle, we talk candidly about why travel plans so often stall—and how to turn intention into action before time makes the choice for you. If you've been waiting for the perfect companion, perfect price, or perfect timing, this conversation hands you permission and a plan to go anyway.We start by naming the big dream—the destination that keeps tugging at you—and reframing it as a Masogi-style challenge: a bold, defining trip that stretches your limits and resets your sense of what's possible. From there, we break the process into practical tracks: money, time, knowledge, and logistics.Then we get tactical. We share how to build a mock itinerary in Wanderlog so ideas become maps, not just wishes. We outline a saving plan you can stick to, and the exact tools we use to catch deals—Google Flights, Skyscanner, Booking, and Going—plus how to set fare alerts that quietly do the work while you live your life. You'll learn to pick dates, star neighborhoods, and make quick decisions when prices dip, all while staying out of debt and in control.By the end, you'll have a clear first step, a destination to claim, and the confidence to travel solo if that's what gets you moving. Put your goal on the wall, start the alerts, and take one small action today. If this sparked your next trip, subscribe, share the show with a friend who needs a nudge, and leave a quick review to help more travelers find us.

Most men don't need more information - they need fewer lies. The most common lie? "I'm fine." In this Friday Field Notes episode, Ryan breaks down why "fine" is how men drift, how standards quietly erode, and why most men wait until catastrophe forces them to take their life seriously.

Ryan challenges you to stop protecting your weak spots, identify where you're cutting corners, and draw one non-negotiable line in the sand that you enforce daily. You don't rise to your potential. You fall to what you tolerate.

In this episode of Fuel Your Drive, I break down why waiting for a new year—and especially waiting for 2026—is the fastest way to fall behind. You don't need a calendar date to change your life. You don't need a New Year's resolution. Resolutions fail because they're built on short-term emotion, not long-term action. If you're truly serious about hitting your goals, winning in business, and leveling up your life, you start today, not next month, not after a holiday, not on January 1st. I share why most people fall back into old habits after just a few weeks and how real success comes from building daily discipline, weekly goals, and relentless execution. If you want a different 2026, it begins with what you do right now.
Most men obsess over goals - the outcomes, the achievements, the shiny targets. But goals don't build men. Standards do. In today's Field Notes, Ryan breaks down why standards define your identity, how they outperform goals in every way, and why your life only changes when you elevate the rules you live by. He shares powerful examples, including recovering from a major injury, why men fail when they rely on motivation, and how to build standards that make you unshakable. Ryan also outlines a four-step framework to reset your identity, eliminate weak standards, and cement the behaviors that transform your life. If you want 2026 to be different, this episode explains exactly where to start. Key Takeaways Goals are emotionally dependent, standards are identity-based. Standards keep you anchored in the present - goals keep you trapped in the future. Goals collapse under adversity; standards strengthen you because they're non-negotiable. A man becomes powerful when he lives by a code with zero negotiation. Your life changes when your identity upgrades, not when your goals get bigger. Four-step framework to build standards that stick: -Identify the man you refuse to be. -Build non-negotiables in all four quadrants (Calibration, Connection, Condition, Contribution). -Build accountability. -Enforce consequences when you violate your own standards. 00:00 - Introduction 00:09 - Why Most Men Get Goals Backwards 01:20 - Goals Don't Build Men — Standards Do 02:33 - Examples of Weak vs. Strong Standards 04:34 - Ryan's Pec Tear: Standards in Adversity 06:24 - A Man Rises or Falls to His Standards 07:50 - Why Goals Fail Men 09:33 - How Goals Delay Action and Keep Men Stuck 11:23 - Goals Collapse Under Stress 12:57 - Standards Create Structure and Strength 14:38 - How Standards Transform a Man 16:10 - Standards Prevent Moral Drift 17:32 - Building Trust Through Consistency 18:57 - Standards Make Men Anti-Fragile 21:03 - Stop Waiting for "All Green Lights" 22:43 - Identity Before Action 23:28 - Fast Progress Comes From Identity Shifts 24:26 - The "Light Yourself on Fire" Lesson 25:14 - Reverse Engineering Goals Into Standards 25:57 - Step 1: Identify the Man You Refuse to Be 27:38 - Making Weak Behaviors Repulsive 29:31 - Step 2: Non-Negotiables in the Four Quadrants 31:32 - Step 3: Accountability 33:00 - Step 4: Enforce Consequences 33:42 - Final Challenge: Raise Your Standards 35:45 - Iron Council Promotion 36:33 - Preview Call Details Battle Planners: Pick yours up today!

Rob Long once walked into a packed table read for a Paramount show airing on CBS, only to learn that Paramount had announced it was buying the network that very morning. Suddenly every exec who feared for their job materialized, bringing tension, chaos, and definitely not enough doughnuts. It's hard not to picture a similar scene at Warner Bros. right now as Netflix scrambles to outmaneuver Paramount. But while bosses barricade themselves in conference rooms and pray for synergies that never happen, creatives shouldn't wait for rescue. In the worst possible moment to be in this business, the best move is the simplest one: make something. Go to YouTube, Instagram, wherever your work can live today. Because Hollywood isn't coming to save you. You're going to have to save yourself. Transcript here. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

In this episode of the BraveCo Podcast, I'm answering your real, raw questions about dating, marriage, trust, and fatherhood as a man of God. We start with how to actually meet women in person in a world that hides behind screens and dating apps. I share my own story of dating after divorce, how I met my wife Lauren, and why growing your in-person game is one of the most important skills you can build as a single man. If you've ever felt stuck, awkward, or intimidated around women, this conversation will give you practical tools to initiate low-pressure, honest, and confident conversations.From there, we dive into one of the hardest topics I hear about as a pastor and counselor: emotional abuse in marriage. Is it ever a good enough reason to leave? What does it look like to set strong, healthy boundaries without instantly jumping to divorce? I'll walk you through why emotional abuse is not “less serious” than physical abuse, why you need wise outside counsel, and how to discern what's really happening in your relationship. We also talk about rebuilding trust after pornography or betrayal—why “I've changed” isn't enough, how to validate your wife's pain, and how trust is rebuilt not by perfection, but by how you clean up the mess you made.Finally, we tackle the question so many men carry quietly: “How do I father my kids when my dad never fathered me?” I share stories from my own family, how my dad invited spiritual fathers into his life, and how you can pursue older men, mentors, and healthy community instead of waiting for someone to chase you down. We talk about joining men's groups, serving leaders you respect, and becoming “good soil” that fathers want to invest in. If you're hungry to grow as a man, husband, and father—and you're willing to grind, show up, and do the work—this episode will give you a clear path forward.Chapters:00:00 - Why Every Boy Needs a Rite of Passage01:44 - How to Meet Women Without Online Dating09:09 - Is Emotional Abuse a Reason to Leave My Wife?13:20 - Rebuilding Trust After Porn and Betrayal19:10 - How to Father Your Kids When You Lacked a Father23:00 - Inviting Spiritual Fathers and Mentors Into Your Life25:02 - Stop Waiting to Be Chosen—Pursue Father Figures26:11 - How to Send Your Questions to BraveCoCONNECT WITH BRAVECOJoin Our Free Community for Men (ladies, sign up your man): https://www.braveco.orgFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/braveco.menInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/braveco.men/Shop: https://shop.braveco.org/ ABOUT BRAVECO: We live in a time where men are hunting for the truth and looking for the codebook to manhood.

Happiness is a feeling. It comes and goes like the weather. You can't build a meaningful life on something that changes by the hour. In this Hard Reset episode, Kelly Siegel breaks down the truth most people never hear: Chasing happiness is a trap. Happiness is momentary. Fulfillment is earned. Kelly reveals why fulfillment, not happiness, is the real metric of a powerful life. He dives into purpose, discipline, integrity, service, and the quiet pride that comes from keeping promises to yourself. This episode will shift how you decide, how you act, and how you measure your life. Because you don't need more “feel good” moments. You need alignment, purpose, and fulfillment. Key Takeaways
Send us a textWhat if your next greenlight isn't a yes from a gatekeeper but the momentum you create yourself? We sit with director Roel Reine for a fast, candid conversation about turning resourcefulness into results—mortgaging a home to finance a first feature, cutting a trailer that unlocks a studio deal, and shooting a $20k desert thriller to prove he could lead Hollywood casts. The throughline is clear: ownership beats permission, and speed beats perfection.Roel breaks down a craft mindset that audiences feel immediately: the three-scene first act. Define the hero and goal, reveal the opposition, establish the genre, then move. He explains why character development belongs in act two, where choices under pressure reveal depth without stalling pace. We also explore his on-set philosophy of directing while operating the camera—staying beside the lens to shape performance, block with intent, and capture multi-camera coverage that saves time and preserves spontaneity.The business playbook gets just as tactical. When the market slowed, Roel asked sales agents what would sell without stars and delivered a practical-effects bear thriller that's now selling worldwide. He shares why building a slate matters—pursue a few big packages while making smaller, fast projects that keep you sharp and liquid. We dig into AI as a creative multiplier, including a fully AI-assisted animated feature for a European theme park, and the global mindset that opens doors far beyond Hollywood.You'll leave with actionable tips: stabilize your shots, use a slider, collect “trailer shots” daily, color consistently with LUTs, and consider making a lean feature instead of a short.

My stomach in my throat, I was unable to get the words out (in spite of being in a senior leadership role). Then, I heard my boss shut down the meeting. My heart sank. I was mortified. She pulled me aside and said, "You didn't trust your gut. You could've tabled the meeting like I did."Why didn't that option occur to me in the moment? Why did I feel like I needed permission?That was the day I set out to change. I began a journey of personal growth to discover the root of the problem.

If you want to level up in business and in life, you must be willing to take risks — because growth never happens in your comfort zone. In this episode, I break down why playing it safe guarantees failure, why belief comes before results, and how every opportunity I've created came from betting on myself and taking bold action. Most people wait their whole lives for the “perfect time,” but that moment never comes — the action takers are the money makers. Failure is a lesson, not a loss, and regret will always hurt more than trying and falling short. If you want to win big, start taking calculated risks today and stop letting fear make your decisions.
How much farther could you be if you stopped waiting for the “perfect” moment and just started?In this episode, I reflect on my own life and share why waiting for the right time can cost you more than you think.Let's break the cycle of perfectionism and discover the powerful momentum that comes from taking action, one imperfect step at a time.Here are 3 Key Takeaways:1. Waiting Has a Hidden Cost: When you hesitate, you're not just missing out on opportunities—you're piling up missed chances on top of the ones already lost. Opportunity cost stacks up quickly when you're waiting to be “ready.”2. Action Beats Preparation: The biggest differentiator between those who achieve their dreams and those who don't is simple—action. There will never be a perfect time, so moving forward always trumps staying stuck in preparation.3. Progress Is Made One Step at a Time: You don't need to leap the whole distance at once. Take baby steps consistently; each small move adds up, and before you know it, the progress will surprise you—just keep moving forward.Ready to Master Your Mindset, Mission, and Message?If today's episode spoke to you, don't just listen—step behind the curtain and join the Journey Feed.

Have you been telling yourself that you'll focus on your health once you make it? In this episode, Cory sits down with Las Vegas broker, investor, and host of The Mindful Agent, Michael Coxen, to unpack the dangerous lie high performers tell themselves: “I'll focus on my health once I'm successful.” Michael shares how grinding through long hours, stress, and “I'll do everything myself” thinking led to a life-threatening battle with ulcerative colitis that left him at 115 pounds and forced him to rethink everything he believed about work, wealth, and winning.Michael walks through how he rebuilt his life and business from that rock-bottom moment, shifting from work–life “balance” to true work–life harmony. He breaks down the simple mindfulness habits he uses daily including conscious breathing, journaling, Tai Chi, that allow him to run a real estate brokerage, build a portfolio, and stay healthy at the same time. He also opens up about how he and his wife quietly built over $1.5M in equity by living in, improving, and renting out three homes over 15 years, why he still loves Las Vegas real estate, and how he thinks about seasons of hustle versus seasons of rest. If you've ever thought, “Once I hit X income, then I'll take care of myself,” this conversation is your wake-up call. Health is wealth and if you don't protect it on the way up, you may never get to enjoy what you've built. Book your mentorship discovery call with Cory RESOURCES
