Desire, Planning & Mastermind — The 3 Principles That Hold Up | Ep 61

Are You Building a Life or Just Feeding the Machine? | Ep63

Are you building a business that serves your family, or has your family started serving the business? In this episode of Yoked, Travis and Ingrid unpack one of the biggest tensions entrepreneurial couples face: ambition, pressure, money, faith, and family all competing for the same attention. What started as an AI-generated conversation prompt turned into a real discussion about healthy drive, decision fatigue, control, Sabbath, business pressure at home, and what it actually costs to keep “feeding the machine.” This episode is for entrepreneurial couples, faith-driven business owners, real estate investors, and anyone trying to build something meaningful without losing the people they’re building it for. In this conversation, we talk about: • The difference between healthy drive and chasing the next thing • How business pressure leaks into marriage and parenting • Why “I’m doing this for my family” can become a dangerous excuse • What slowing down reveals about control and identity • How to make business a tool instead of the master of your home • Why integration may matter more than perfect balance If you’re building a business, leading a family, and trying to stay aligned with your faith, this one will hit home.

Revitalizing a Small Town Through Real Estate and Family Vision | Ep62

What if real estate was about more than cash flow, flips, and freedom? In this episode, we sit down with Clint and Jesse Savoy, a husband-and-wife team using real estate to help revitalize Jesse’s hometown of Knippa, Texas. Their story moves from debt-free living and traditional careers into rental properties, flips, co-living, capital raising, and a bigger mission around family legacy. This conversation is for entrepreneurial couples, real estate investors, and faith-driven families who are asking a deeper question: what are we actually building, and who is it for? We talk about how Clint and Jesse moved back to a tiny Texas town, renovated a 100-year family farmhouse, shifted from traditional investing into real estate, and learned to operate as a true partnership while raising kids and managing different work rhythms. Jesse also shares the deeper “why” behind rebuilding Knippa: creating a hometown their kids would want to come back to. Key takeaways: * How one couple transitioned from careers into real estate investing * Why mentorship accelerated their growth * How small-town real estate investing works when comps barely exist * What it looks like to build a family business with different strengths * Why legacy, faith, and community may be the real return If you’re building a business with your spouse, raising kids, or trying to create something that lasts beyond you, this episode will hit home.

Desire, Planning & Mastermind — The 3 Principles That Hold Up | Ep 61

Most people read Think and Grow Rich for the money principles. Travis and Ingrid read it and kept circling the marriage stuff. In this episode, they break down three of Napoleon Hill's 13 principles — Desire, Organized Planning, and the Mastermind — and run them through the lens of building a business and a life together. They talk about what separates a burning desire from a wish and how to tell the difference when life gets hard, why a plan failing is not the same as a goal failing, and why Napoleon Hill — writing in 1937 — called marriage the most powerful mastermind available to anyone. They also share what the first week of owning Pelican Landing RV Park actually looks like, the story behind the name, and why women couldn't open a bank account without their husband's permission until 1974 — and why it's remarkable Hill was writing about shared vision in marriage decades before that. If you've never read this book, this episode will make you want to. If you have, you'll hear it differently filtered through 17 years of building as a couple. 👉 Subscribe for weekly conversations on faith, business, and building a life you’re proud of.👉 Follow along on YouTube, Spotify, and Apple Podcasts for new episodes every week. 👉 Connect with us: www.partnerwithnorth.com • @thetravishall • @theingridhall • @theTravisHall

How We Used a 1031 to Land a Seller-Financed RV Park in Oklahoma | Ep 60

Most people picture an RV park and think it's out of reach — too complicated, too niche, too much capital. Travis and Ingrid just proved otherwise. In this episode, they do a full breakdown of their first RV park acquisition: a 14-site property in Grove, Oklahoma, sitting on Cherokee Nation land, purchased at $480K with just $100K down and a seller-carried note at 4% interest. They walk through how Travis sourced the deal on Crexi with almost no information in the listing, how a cold call to the seller's mom led to a conversation that changed everything, and how they negotiated the price down from $600K while getting six months of interest-only payments built in. They also get into the JV partnership structure — why equity on day one almost never makes sense, what a preferred return model actually looks like in practice, and how they nearly didn't close when their operating partner was hospitalized a week before the closing date. The vision, the revenue targets, the exit strategy, and the intrinsic value of owning land near family — it's all here. This is what a real deal looks like from inside the marriage that ran it.

Why More Investors Are Turning to Co-Living | Ep59

Co-living is one of the biggest real estate strategies more investors are paying attention to right now, but most people still do not fully understand what it is. In this episode, we break down co-living in plain English. We talk about how the model works, why it is growing, who it serves, where it fits, and where it absolutely does not. We also get into the real investor side of it: cash flow, rent-by-the-room models, management intensity, zoning, affordability, and why this strategy is becoming more attractive in markets where traditional rentals do not pencil the way they used to.  We also share how we are thinking about co-living inside our own portfolio, why Spokane is standing out to us, and what makes this more than just another real estate buzzword. If you are a real estate investor looking for better returns, a way to help meet housing demand, or a strategy that blends opportunity with actual utility, this episode will help you think more clearly. In this episode: * What co-living actually is * Why investors are paying attention * Who rents these properties * Why operations matter more than people think * Who should and should not pursue this strategy * How we are evaluating it in our own business If this episode helped you, send it to another investor and follow along for the next breakdown.
