Jack's entrepreneurial journey has one major thread through it- consistency and persistence. Today's conversation really boils down why those two concepts are critical for your business to succeed.  Jack began his entrepreneurial journey at 19 and founded his first company at the ripe old age of 21.  Operating a successful nutrition consulting and distribution company, he had built a multi-million dollar venture before he was old enough to rent a car. Soon after, he bought his first home as an investment. One quickly became five, and then the bug hit. He became obsessed with learning everything about Real Estate Investing and soon had over 50 investment properties generating passive income. Today, Jack spends his time mentoring other entrepreneurs, building his real estate investment portfolio, and helping other investors to build a brighter future through the power of turnkey real estate income.

Let's talk real estate. Real estate is one of those topics that you should at least know the basics of no matter what your career path is.  In today's interview, I dive into real estate investing principles with Jeff Schechter, aka “Shecky.”  Jeff has had the entrepreneurial bug his entire life. He started his first business right out of college, and over the years been involved in numerous businesses ventures. His love for real estate investing began in the 1980’s when he rehabbed 5 of his own residences before the term “house-hacking” even existed. Since those early days of torn up kitchens and bathrooms, he’s bought and sold many properties and is an active investor to this day.  In addition to investing, he operates a private consulting practice.  He thrives on helping people realize their full potential…not just in business and investing, but in all aspects of life.

Let's talk drop shipping.  After graduating from college in 2006, Anton Kraly spent $25,000 to buy a delivery route to sell cookies in Merrick, N.Y., a Long Island community. But when Tim Ferriss’s book The Four Hour Workweek came out in 2007, Kraly rethought his business model, looking for an easier way to make a living. Investing $29 a month in an eCommerce hosting package, he put up an online store and started selling his cookies online at a site, called NYcookieshop.com, that he later sold. The new business quickly became more profitable than his delivery route. He and a business partner ran it while traveling in Thailand and Vietnam. In 2013, he started Drop Ship Lifestyle to teach people how to create profitable eCommerce businesses by leveraging high-ticket drop shipping. Voted “Best eCommerce Course” by Shopify in 2018, Drop Ship Lifestyle is now the top online eCommerce coaching program and has helped more than 8,000 students in 25 countries to find freedom through entrepreneurship.

We're gettin' tactical in today's episode! No matter if your business is online or a brick and mortar, chances are you have a business website. If not... You should! ;)  An online presence is similar to a road sign- it does NOTHING if it's not visible and in front of people! That brings us to the topic of today's interview: SEO optimization. SEO is the tool that gets your website in front of your ideal customers/consumers. Even though this is the case, very few of us take the time to actually optimize our websites.  It can seem a bit overwhelming and too complicated. That's why I loved today's episode! Vlad essentially provided an SEO Optimization 101 class for us!  So... If you can relate to any of the above! Take a listen! A little more about Vlad:  Vlad Mkrtumyan is the CEO of Logic Inbound- a digital marketing agency based in Seattle. Vlad is a serial entrepreneur and community builder based in Seattle as well. Today he leverages everything he's learned to drive high performing search marketing camp

Do I have enough? Am I enough? Am I loved enough?  When I was trying to decide what to title this incredible and truly life-changing episode with Jairek Robbins, these questions that he asked at the end of the show stood out to me the most. Jairek asks himself these questions every day so that he can operate from an abundance mentality.  In this episode, we tackle the big life questions and aspirations like peak performance, fulfillment and most of all, what Jairek is most passionate about, helping individuals like you achieve success by living with purpose in your life and business. A little more about Jairek:  At only 23 years old, Jairek was awarded the Congressional Award (Gold Medal) from the United States Congress. He has conducted trainings for a variety of companies & organizations including Harvard University, The United States Marines, The United States Air Force Special Forces, BMW, REMAX, UBS, Major League Baseball Teams and members of the U.S. Olympic team. He is a trusted advisor and

We all face those annoyances... The small everyday irritations that happen almost like clockwork. It could be the key that keeps falling off your keychain, the bread bag that doesn't stay tied, or the protein shake that doesn't shake up all the way in your tumbler.  Most of us just let these things continue to happen. Which is funny... Because one of the definitions of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again expecting different results. But that's for a different episode. ;)  Today's guest experienced a similar situation as one of the above and decided to not only create his own solution but to build a business around it and create a solution for others! Meet Jonathan Katz, the founder of BLENDi. BLENDi is a product that revolutionizes blending by allowing you to blend anywhere.  If you want to learn how to turn your problem into a product you can sell, listen to today's episode!

Have you ever wondered what the meaning of all of this is? Why we're on this earth in the first place and the truth of your purpose?  This interview is very different from your typical EB25 episode. In this interview, I got to chat with Holden Hill who's the author of Bring The Fire. Instead of talking about business tactics and ideas, we dive into the framework that holds everything else together: Life's purpose.  Holden dives into his story of how asking himself one question led to him interviewing 500 Christ-following leaders in search of the truth. This episode is a POWERFUL one that you're not going to want to miss. To quote Holden, "We have one shot in this life, let's give it all we got."

I don't think there has ever been a more impactful and powerful CWCM episode! Today I get to interview my inspiring parents on how they have built a passionate and lasting marriage for 35+ years. This has been a highly requested episode and a long time in the making! In a world where marriages are falling apart left and right, this conversation was so encouraging and revealed such a powerful perspective on relationships. A few of the questions they answer in today's episode:  How do you know you've found "the one"? What are the core characteristics/traits to look for when choosing your spouse? Why do confident men often become cocky when they're around a confident woman?  How can women start empowering men to be MEN instead de'MAN'ing them? What do they wish they would have known in year 1 of their marriage? We held nothing back in this conversation. Trust me... Whether you're single, dating or married, this episode will empower and inspire you so much. Resources: Connect with Lonn
