Welcome to another episode of Book Club! In this lively and unfiltered discussion, hosts Mary Oquendo and Dr. Sacheen Mobley tackle two popular books on organization and productivity—each with plenty of laughs and strong opinions along the way.Mary kicks things off with her candid review of Swedish Death Cleaning for Beginners by Diana W. Fashed. Despite its intriguing title, she questions its real-world value, suggesting it's more of a handbook for procrastinators than a genuine path to lasting change.Next, Sacheen breaks down the hype surrounding Tim Ferriss's The Four Hour Work Week. From dissecting the “deal system” to wrestling with the ethics of outsourcing and automation, she explores why this bestseller—though sprinkled with helpful nuggets—often oversimplifies success and leans on privilege.Together, Mary and Sacheen pull back the curtain on the practicality (or lack thereof) behind these so-called productivity bibles, especially when applied to service-based industries like pet grooming. Whether you're a book lover, a business owner, or just want an honest take before spending your next Audible credit, this episode promises equal parts insight, humor, and a dose of reality.

In today's episode, Ryan reflects on the passing of his friend George Raveling and turns to Seneca for wisdom on how to handle grief. You'll hear Seneca's timeless words on love, loss, and why even painful memories can carry sweetness.

Patrick Grimes, CEO of Passive Investing Mastery and internationally bestselling author, shares how accredited investors can diversify like the ultra-wealthy. In this episode, Patrick explains why litigation funding, rare earth metals, and other alternative investments can protect your wealth, create passive income, and thrive during any economic cycle. In this episode, we chat about… Patrick's shift from robotics engineering to building wealth through real estate and alternative assets Why litigation finance is a powerful, non-correlated investment strategy How accredited investors can access opportunities usually reserved for hedge funds and institutions The role of AI and automation in scaling real estate and investment operations Lessons from losing everything in 2009 and why proper diversification matters more than chasing returns The future of alternative investing: rare earth metals, strategic commodities, and commercial acquisitions Key Takeaways: Don't wait for a downturn, true security comes from diversified, recession-resilient assets. Non-correlated investments (like litigation finance or healthcare-related industries) provide stability beyond real estate and stocks. Tax efficiency is important, but it shouldn't drive your entire portfolio strategy. AI is transforming operations in property management and deal sourcing, freeing time for higher-value decisions. Scaling requires partnering and outsourcing, trying to do it all yourself limits growth. The wealthy build portfolios with balanced allocations, not by betting everything on one asset class.   Resources from Patrick LinkedIn  | Website | Get Patrick's bestselling book (free copy for listeners) The Alternative Investment Almanac by Denis Shapiro | The 4-Hour Workweek by Tim Ferriss   Resources from Mike and Nichole Gateway Private Equity Group |  Nic's guide

Watch this episode on YouTube!  Derek has accomplished numerous impressive feats. He founded CD Baby. In 2008, he sold CD Baby for $22 million and donated the proceeds to a charitable trust dedicated to music education. After selling the company, he transitioned into writing and speaking. Derek's books are short, dense, and profound. In honor of his style, I've broken up my interview with him into three fascinating segments. It would be great if you could buy Derek's new book, Useful Not True, from Amazon, as I receive a small commission. However, if you want a much better deal, do what I did: buy multiple copies of his book from Derek Sivers's website. It's significantly cheaper than Amazon, especially when purchasing multiple copies, as each additional hardcover copy costs only about $4 more.  How Derek Sivers and I met Derek Sivers stumbled onto The Hidden Europe, fell in love with it, and reached out to me 10 years ago, telling me how much he loved my book. I had no idea who he was, but soon found out. A-list celebrities, such as Tim Ferriss, have interviewed Derek on multiple occasions. Still, I'm not one to fall for celebrities, unless she's Megan Fox. What makes me most thrilled about interviewing Derek is his philosophy: he's a stoic. This guy sold his company (CD Baby) for $22 million and gave the money away to charity. He loves to experiment, travel, and think out of the box. It pains me that he and I missed each other when I visited his city in Wellington, New Zealand. I was there for a day, and it happened to be the day that he devotes entirely and exclusively to his son. I wish he were a less responsible father. About Derek Sivers Derek Sivers is focused on creation, learning, and living a minimalist, highly intentional life. Background: Born in 1969 in Berkeley, he moved frequently during his childhood, including to U.S. cities and England. His early focus on music began at the age of 14, when he was trained at Berklee College of Music. He transitioned into entrepreneurship. Career: Started multiple companies, including CD Baby and HostBaby, sold them in 2008, and since then has focused on writing, traveling, and intrinsic creativity rather than money or fame. Life Philosophy: Influenced by Stoicism, skeptical and open to changing perspectives, values self-strengthening for the future, and embraces the paradox that opposite views can both be true. Work Style: Loves to work alone intensely for long hours (12+ hours daily), prefers solo creative pursuits, and values deep focus and minimalist distraction. Uses minimal tech tools, avoids apps and cloud dependence, and prefers phone conversations to in-person socializing. Personal: American by origin, a world citizen, and expat living in various countries for extended periods. Has a 12-year-old son with whom he spends significant undivided time weekly. Identifies as an introverted extrovert with a strong social time limit, values voice communication, and dislikes noise and crowds. Values & Traits: Minimalist in possessions and technology, single-task oriented, future-focused, deliberate, avoids addictions, hates wasting time, and values silence and quality over quantity in relationships and experiences. Creative Interests: Loves and creates music with a focus on innovation, song craft, and high-quality recordings. Prefers analytical listening and creative originality rather than mainstream trends. Overall, Derek leads a carefully optimized life that prioritizes creativity, learning, and meaningful personal connections, with a strong emphasis on independence, long-term thinking, and simplicity.

In this episode of IN-DEPTH, Cal is joined by bestselling author and podcaster, Tim Ferriss. Tim rocketed to prominence with his 2007 book, “The Four Hour WorkWeek” which basically redefined a generation's relationship with work, meaning, and the possibilities for building an interesting life. More recently, Tim created a card game! It's called Coyote. And he created it with one of the top designers in the business, the same company that created Exploding Kittens.Video from today's episode:  youtube.com/calnewportmediaINTERVIEW: The Game of Life (w/ Tim Ferriss) [3:16]Links:https://www.explodingkittens.com/products/coyoteSponsorshttps://www.reclaim.ai/calThanks to Jesse Miller for production, Kieron Rees for the theme music, and Mark Miles for mastering.

Bex flips the script and puts Michelle in the hot seat. We get into the messy middle: pivoting from acting to construction to podcasting, the burnout that forced a reset, money honesty, why community matters, and how to build something you care about without losing your mind (or your keys).Key takeawaysYou don't need to burn it all down to pivot—build the bridge while you're still on it.Self-awareness is a double-edged sword; pair it with action and data, not doom-scroll metrics.Ask for help. Community is a strategy, not a weakness.Defiance gets you to the start line; consistency gets you to the finish.“Enough” is a number and a feeling—separate business goals from ego.Use “What's the evidence?” to challenge your inner critic (and your hype).Purpose = entertain + storytelling + empower — let it steer decisions.Stoicism (and tiny proofs) beat perfectionism.Women: price your value like “the average white guy” energy you joked about—confident and clear.IRL > online: in-person conversations and live shows build loyalty faster than another Zoom.Timestamps00:00 Tables turn—Bex takes the host chair; why new listeners need Michelle's backstory03:30 Regret & return: film/directing dreams, auditions, and circling back to storytelling06:30 The hard truth about building a show: ups/downs, data over dopamine13:10 Counting the invisible work: two episodes, a shoot, kids, and keeping perspective17:40 The email exercise that changed everything (friends define you at your best)19:30 From geography grad to construction—“fake it till you make it” and finding your edge23:10 Burnout → pivot to podcasting; choosing the hardest thing on purpose28:30 Learning from guests (Tim Ferriss vibe) and stitching lessons into tools for listeners (great mid-roll slot)31:45 Seasick on a fishing boat: why terrible days make great stories36:00 Marathon mindset: hubris vs. habits; micro-wins beat impulse39:15 ADHD, dopamine, and doing the boring bits your future self needs50:00 Stoicism, Ryan Holiday, and the “Daily proof > daily mood” approach52:00 What “winning” means now; the three-word filter: entertain, storytelling, empower55:10 Clothing with meaning vs. “just merch”; why the brand has to feel like a tribe56:30 What's next: live shows with community Q&A; collab with Laura (BRB)58:40 Why in-person beats Zoom for deeper conversations and loyal audience60:40 “Advice to 12-year-old me”—stop hiding, say yes, learn out loud67:00 Money, fear, and finding your “enough” line77:45 Kill comparison; use evidence; keep going—then keep going again Hosted on Acast.

This week's throwback guest is Cal Fussman. This was a very special interview for me, because Cal is one of the major reasons why I started podcasting in the first place. He made an appearance on Tim Ferriss' show, to which Tim talked him into starting his own show. As both of them are my podcasting inspirations, I knew this was going to be a good one! Cal is a New York Times Bestselling Author, Professional Speaker, Storytelling Coach, and host of “Big Questions” Cal was best friends with Larry King and shared breakfast with him every morning. He also traveled around the world for 10 years straight after booking a 1 way ticket to start a trip. He worked his way around the world, bus by bus where locals would invite him to their house to stay (more about this in the episode).Cal was a former writer for Esquire Magazine, where he interviewed a very impressive list, including: Muhammad Ali, Mikhail Gorbachev, Jeff Bezos, Richard Branson, Jimmy Carter, Robert DeNiro, Donald Trump, Al Pacino, Joe Biden, Larry King, Ted Kennedy, Tony Bennett, Barbara Walters, Bruce Springsteen, Dr. Michael DeBakey (father of open-heart surgery), Pele, Vint Cerf (co-creator of the Internet), George Clooney, Lauren Hutton (first super model) Leonardo DiCaprio, Dr. Dre, Walter Cronkite, Clint Eastwood, Mary Barra (General Motors CEO), legendary coaches John Wooden, Bobby Bowden and Mike Krzyzewski, Salman Rushdie, Tom Hanks, Shaquille O'Neal In this episode, we discussed:How A Good Question Can Get You To The Most Powerful Person In The WorldUkraine and Their Fight For A Free SocietyBuilding The Connection Bridge How Every Step back Is A Step Forward Rethinking Healthcare in America How To Tell Your StoryMuch More! Please enjoy this week's episode with Cal Fussman____________________________________________________________________________I am now in the early stages of writing my first book!

Title: The 1% Closer - Eli Facenda Summary: In this segment, Seth Bradley interviews Eli Facenda about what sets him apart in the ultra-niche space of travel hacking for entrepreneurs. Eli explains that he and his team truly live what they teach—they're entrepreneurs themselves who have traveled extensively and understand the time and complexity challenges of business owners. Their credibility comes from personal experience, deep destination knowledge, and practicing what they preach. Eli shares one actionable tip to move closer to a dream life: block time on your calendar now for your dream trip—because unless you schedule your fun first, it won't happen. Links to Watch and Subscribe: https://youtu.be/oLrxBcm_WFU Bullet Point Highlights: Eli separates himself by living what he teaches, he travels extensively and is a business owner, just like his clients His team has traveled to 50–100 countries, giving them expert-level insight on global destinations They bring real-world credibility, personalization, and strategic value to clients Most travel "gurus" don't walk the walk; Eli's team does Actionable advice: Pick your dream destination, put it on the calendar, and commit Quote inspiration: “If you don't schedule your fun first, it won't happen” Entrepreneurs must prioritize life experiences, not wait for “the right time” Transcript: Eli, you're clearly in the top 1 % of what you do. I don't even know if there's that many people out there that do what you do at all, period. So clearly in the top 0.0001%, what is it about you that separates you from the rest of the field?   I think it's our ability to actually live what we preach. This is something where, you know, there are other fantastic people that talk about credit card points, but very few of them are actually business owners, like that's who we serve, and very few of them are actually traveling in the way that they're trying to help people travel. So we've done both. I've built multiple businesses, so I understand the...   psychology and the relatability of how you want to think about travel and point in the various stresses in your life, the limitations on time and complexity. So yeah, so not only have we really walked the walk with actually living what we preach, but we also understand that psychology of what it's like to be a business owner, your limitations on time and complexity and all that stuff. And because we're talking about travel, people also want to know like what's actually in store for me in this destination. I've been to 50 countries now and my business partner has been to almost a hundred.   We have other team members who are all over 30, 40, 50 countries. So we've been to a lot of the destinations around the world that we're advising people to go to. So we know the ins and outs, best places to stay, hidden gems, top restaurants, stuff like that, that really add another layer of personalization and true experience into the service. So I think those are the things that really make us most credible in this space.   Dude, it's so important, right? Like there's so many, you know, there's so much content out there now. There's gurus and coaches and mentors, whatever you want to call them. Like the ones that are truly valuable and that people should pay attention to are the ones that are actually practicing what they preach, right? The ones that aren't just selling you education or aren't just selling you a product. Like they're actually, they've done what they're selling and they continue to   Enjoy or do.   100%. Yeah, if you're a living embodiment of what you do, makes it that much easier to communicate it and sell it because you just are the thing you're selling. Yeah.   Absolutely. What's one thing someone listening could do today to get 1 % closer to their dream life?   One thing that would be the easiest is to spend 30 minutes, go on Instagram, go on your favorite social media site, go on some travel blog site, look for your dream destination, then pull up your calendar and put a time on the calendar where you're committing to go. One of my favorite quotes is from Tim Ferriss, I forget the exact quote, but basically the idea is that if you don't schedule your fun first, it won't happen.   because your business and your life will take up as much space as you allow it to. So most people find that I'll take the trip when it's convenient. I'll take the trip when I have more time. That time is never coming until you make it a priority. So the one thing they can do to get closer to their dream life is to just make a more bold commitment to putting the time on the calendar and be like, I am going and make some sort of investment, whether you're telling someone, whether you're putting some money down, whether you're learn the point stuff, that's gonna be the biggest leverage you can make.   to make sure that you actually follow through on taking these trips and then you'll find how to get there on points if you need to from there.   100 % man, gotta put it, people, entrepreneurs, people like us, we work in all the time, you've gotta put it, put it in your schedule. You've gotta block it out.   Absolutely, 100%.   Links from the Show and Guest Info and Links: Seth Bradley's Links: https://x.com/sethbradleyesq https://www.youtube.com/@sethbradleyesq www.facebook.com/sethbradleyesq https://www.threads.com/@sethbradleyesq https://www.instagram.com/sethbradleyesq/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/sethbradleyesq/ https://passiveincomeattorney.com/seth-bradley/ https://www.biggerpockets.com/users/sethbradleyesq https://medium.com/@sethbradleyesq https://www.tiktok.com/@sethbradleyesq?lang=en Eli Facenda Links: https://www.instagram.com/elitravelguy/ https://x.com/elitravelguy https://www.linkedin.com/in/eli-facenda/ https://www.facebook.com/eli.facenda https://www.youtube.com/@elifacenda https://www.threads.com/@elitravelguy https://www.skool.com/@eli-facenda-5305?t=posts
