SaaS Dads S2/E15: The SaaS Opportunity Nobody Is Talking About Right Now

SaaS Dads S2/E16: She Toured the World in a Flying Car… Now She's Teaching the World How to Use AI

Most people pick a lane. Molly Mahoney picked several and somehow made them all work. Professional musical theater performer. National tour of Chitty Bang Bang. Knitting and crocheting business. Camera confidence coach. Messenger bot expert. AI educator. Broadway producer. Oh, and mum to two boys aged 12 and 14 who between them have sold $1 drawings on Facebook Live, presented at business events in their backyard, and done a live stream with a SamCart co-founder to build a sales page at age 11. This is one of those conversations that goes everywhere and somehow ties together perfectly at the end.   In this episode Molly gets beautifully honest about:   👉 Touring the world in a flying car and how that led to everything that came after   👉 Starting a business while baby-wearing and teaching dance classes with a baby on her back   👉 Her 12-year-old son who is basically an 80-year-old man in a child's body who hates AI   👉 Why she didn't let her kids play Fortnite and what they found instead   👉 The affiliate competition she nearly won and the Tesla she lost because of what she kept saying out loud   👉 Her son asking to come on a business trip to Gay Hendricks' house and why she said yes   👉 The sparkly boulder moment when everything in her business fell apart at once   👉 Losing her mum, tearing the cartilage in her wrist and her dog dying on her husband's birthday all at the same time   👉 How she got from Broadway opening night to a Tony Robbins stage in less than 12 hours   👉 Why frameworks equal freedom and what that means for SaaS mums everywhere   👉 The tickle points that most people completely miss when building their brand   👉 Why the humans behind the brand matter more than ever in an AI world   This one is warm, funny, sparkly and genuinely moving all at the same time.   Molly is proof that the weirdest path forward is usually the right one. And that staying calm through the chaos is the actual superpower that makes everything else possible.   🙏 🎧 You need this one today.   👉 This is where it starts.

SaaS Dads S2/E15: The SaaS Opportunity Nobody Is Talking About Right Now

Two SaaS dads walk into a conversation about AI, kids, school, personal brand and the future.   Neither of them has any answers.   And somehow that's the most valuable episode we've done all season.   Danny Clarke is back for Season 2. Fresh from Costa Rica where they were both speaking at an event. Three kids aged 14, 12 and 10. A business he's built around finishing work at 2PM so he never misses a moment with his son on the football pitch.   And a head full of questions about what the hell any of us are supposed to tell our kids about their future.   Because here's the thing nobody's saying out loud.   We don't know what jobs will exist. We don't know what skills will matter. We don't know if school is preparing them for anything useful. And we don't know what the world looks like in five years let alone when these kids are grown up and trying to figure out their lives.   But we do know one thing.   The creators win. The consumers lose. And right now there's never been a bigger gap between the people using AI and the people who have no idea what's even possible.   In this episode Gary and Danny get completely honest about:   👉 Why Danny cut his workday to finish at 2PM and what that cost him and gave him   👉 The moment they both realised their kids are becoming independent faster than expected   👉 What the hell do you tell your kids to do when you can't even predict your own industry   👉 Why Danny's 14-year-old daughter is already questioning the point of school   👉 The shift from using AI to working with AI and why it's actually creating more work right now   👉 Why personal brand is more important than ever and what that really means   👉 The Tom the Sparky theory and the massive opportunity nobody is talking about   👉 Why imperfect action beats perfect knowledge every single time   👉 The 250 testimonials story that perfectly explains how goodwill actually works   👉 A frozen dragon in Antarctica and why Gary's wife goes down too many rabbit holes 😂   This one is raw, real and genuinely funny in parts.   Two dads. Two businesses. Zero certainty about the future. Loads of honest conversation about what it all means. 🙏   🎧 This is the conversation you didn't know you needed today.   👉 This is where it starts.

SaaS Dads S2/E14: He Quit Amazon to Build With His Wife… Now They're Raising Two Kids and Multiple SaaS Products

Most people dream about quitting their corporate job. Kunal actually did it. Senior software engineer at Amazon. Stable salary. Everything covered every month, and he walked away to build something with his wife Ruheene that most people told him was a risk not worth taking. His dad was the only one who said go, and now they're building Brandpod together, multiple SaaS products, a team, clients, and two kids aged eight and eleven who are already getting involved in the business in their own ways. But here's what made this conversation different, it wasn't really about the business at all, it was about what it actually looks like to build something alongside the person you love, raise kids in a country far from your family, figure out screen time and Roblox and AI and what the future even looks like for children growing up right now.   Raw, honest and surprisingly funny. 😅   In this episode Kunal gets refreshingly real about:   👉 Quitting Amazon to build full time with his wife and what his dad said that surprised everyone 👉 Growing up in India, moving to Australia then the US and meeting Raheen on a dating website 👉 Getting married twice in two months because her mum was given three months to live 👉 What it's really like running multiple businesses with your life partner every single day 👉 His daughter pulling people into their booth at the HighLevel Dallas summit from age eight 👉 His son becoming their unofficial in house software tester for Brand Pod 👉 The Roblox warning every parent needs to hear right now 👉 Why he thinks critical thinking and resilience are the only skills that will matter for kids in an AI world 👉 The one thing he and Raheen do every Wednesday that keeps everything in balance 👉 His honest advice for any SaaS dad working alongside their partner   This one is warm, grounded and full of the kind of real talk you don't always hear from people building businesses in this space. 🙏   🎧 This one's for the dads and mums building something together.   👉 This is where it starts.

SaaS Dads S2/E13: FBI Raided His House, $10M NFL Lawsuit… He Built a Two-Time Gold SaaS Business Anyway

Most people have one rock bottom moment. Russ Ward had several. Got his girlfriend pregnant on the first date. Flew to Las Vegas and got married weeks later. Got kicked out of three colleges. Joined the Navy at 21 just to force himself into a job he couldn't quit. Then built a bootleg DVD empire from his basement that made him $2-3 million over 10 years. Then the FBI raided his house. The NFL sued him for $10 million. The IRS hit him with a $119,000 tax lien. His merchant accounts froze. His marriage fell apart. His kids went to live with their mum. And he spent a week lying on the floor with a gun to his head. He got up. And now he's a two-time consecutive Gold SaaSpreneur. Standing on stage in a gold sparkly jacket collecting awards he spent six years working toward. This is one of the most honest conversations we've ever had on SaaS Dads. In this episode Russ gets completely raw about: 👉 Getting his girlfriend pregnant on the first date and flying to Las Vegas to get married 👉 Running nuclear reactors in the Navy until they found out he was colour blind 👉 Building a $2-3 million bootleg DVD empire from his basement while in the military 👉 The FBI raid, the $10 million NFL lawsuit and the IRS tax lien that froze everything 👉 Spending a week on the floor with a gun to his head and what pulled him back 👉 Writing letters to his kids apologising for being a bad dad and how that rebuilt everything 👉 Using a Cameo shout-out from Xzibit to break the ice with his estranged son 👉 How he went from bankrupt and unemployable to two-time Gold SaaSpreneur 👉 His 14-year-old daughter building an AI music business at farmers markets 👉 Why it took him six years to get his first Gold award and what he'd tell anyone still grinding 👉 The one piece of advice he gives to anyone hitting rock bottom right now This one is unlike anything we've shared before. Russ didn't just hit rock bottom. He built his rock bottom himself, brick by brick, bad decision by bad decision. And then he climbed out of it anyway. If you're in a tough spot right now, this episode is for you. 🙏 🎧 Watch this one. Then watch it again.   👉 This is where it starts.

SaaS Dads S2/E12: He's Leaving Australia After 16 Years… To Give His Son Something Money Can't Buy

Most people build a business to afford a better life. Vit built one so he could actually live it. 16 years in Australia. Australian citizen. Thriving SaaS agency. The HighLevel Experience podcast. A life that most people in the HighLevel community would look at and go… that's it. That's the dream. And he's walking away from all of it. Not because things went wrong. Because something more important finally got loud enough to listen to, family. His parents. His wife's parents. His five year old son who's never really known what it feels like to grow up surrounded by people who love him unconditionally. The grandparents who are getting older. The date nights that never happen because there's nobody to watch the kid. So Vit made a decision. Pack up the house. Sell the stuff. Tell the son after Easter. And move back to Czech Republic in six weeks. And here's the part that makes this story different from most. the business is coming with him.   In this episode Vit gets refreshingly honest about: 👉 Why he's leaving Australia after 16 years and what finally made the decision easy 👉 How he tested running his business remotely by moving to Czech Republic for two and a half years 👉 Why the stuff you accumulate means absolutely nothing when it comes to the crunch 👉 The time zone strategy he's built to keep Australian clients and crack the US market from Europe 👉 Why he's never run a single ad in five years and built his entire agency on referral partnerships 👉 His honest take on HighLevel for beginners and why most people should go through an agency first 👉 The HighLevel Experience podcast origin story and why it started with beers in Dallas 👉 Three free tools every HighLevel agency owner should grab right now 👉 The vomit in the car story that every parent will relate to way too much 👉 Why being detail obsessed is both his superpower and his biggest weakness as a dad   This one is a little different from our usual episodes.   It's not a rags to riches story. It's not a comeback from rock bottom. It's something rarer than that.   It's a guy who built something great and then had the courage to ask himself what matters more, and chose family. 🙏   🎧 This one will make you think about your own priorities.   👉 This is where it starts.
