Building Wealth Without Losing Yourself

The Price of a Toxic Culture

In today’s episode, I’m joined by Catherine Mattice, founder and CEO of Civility Partners, to talk about workplace culture, toxicity, and the habits that shape both personal and professional success. We discuss why the word “toxic” is often misused, how leaders can identify behaviors that interfere with a company’s mission, and the hidden emotional costs of keeping the wrong people in an organization. I also share the five daily non-negotiable practices that drive growth, including sleep, health, family, faith, learning, and financial awareness. Together, we explore accountability, self-image, kindness, and how consistent habits help us reach our full potential.

The Infinite Loop of Giving

In today’s episode, I share what my mom taught me about generosity, faith, gratitude, and the infinite loop of giving. I reflect on growing up with very little, losing everything in 2008, and learning that the more we give, the more we are given. I also talk about why receiving is a skill, why asking for more is an act of faith, and how abundance requires us to move beyond guilt, scarcity, and zero-sum thinking. Through gratitude, forgiveness, wisdom, and community, we can give more, receive more, ask for more, and empower others to do the same.

The Power of Giving Back

In today’s episode, I sit down with Super Bowl 50 champion, Pro Bowl running back, entrepreneur, and high school football coach CJ Anderson. After a successful NFL career, CJ chose a path centered on service, mentoring young athletes, and helping shape the next generation through coaching and education. We talk about the impact great coaches have on a young person’s life, why athletes should prepare for life beyond sports, and how to find purpose after the spotlight fades. CJ also shares his perspective on leadership, parenting, adapting to technology, and using role models and social media as tools for growth, discipline, and long-term success.

Turning Desire Into Action: The Mindset That Creates Success

In this episode, I remind you that desire alone doesn't create results. What you think, say, do, believe, and feel must be aligned with where you want to be or better. I share why feeding your mind with the right ideas, building empowering belief patterns, and taking consistent action create the outcomes you want. I also explain why devotion goes beyond discipline, why faith grows through the promises you keep to yourself, and how staying aligned every day creates more opportunities, more options, and more touches of favor in the consistent, persistent pursuit of your potential.

Why Failure Is Part of the Process

In today’s episode, I sit down with Greg Lutzka, two-time X Games gold medalist, entrepreneur, television host, and executive producer, to talk about the lessons that skateboarding teaches far beyond competition. Greg shares how falling hundreds of times while learning tricks prepared him for success in business, investing, and life. We discuss his hit Fuel TV series Next Gen Skateboarding, his mission to create opportunities for young athletes, and the mindset required to keep improving no matter your level of success. Greg also explains why learning to represent yourself, build relationships, and create opportunities can be just as valuable as mastering your craft.
