How One YouTube Video Changed His Life (and His Net Worth)

I first met David back in 2019 when he was a university student driving Uber. Fast forward a few years, he scaled Ottawa’s biggest ghost kitchen to six figures in 3 months, went on to own two restaurants, bought his first home at just 23, and now runs a thriving real estate business as one of the top 0.1% connected brokers in his market! This episode goes deep and truly touched me more than I anticipated — we go from wealth tactics to life’s big questions: how to live with purpose, design a life of freedom, and avoid regret at old age. And here’s the best part: even if you’re not an entrepreneur, David shares how you can start building wealth while keeping your 9-5.   Episode highlights you won’t want to miss: * The one YouTube video that rewired how he thinks about money & freedom * How to build wealth even if you stay in your 9–5 * 5 ways to make money in real estate in 2025 (yes, it’s still possible) * The Quora-inspired question that kickstarted his journey (and why every young person should ask themselves this) * Why you don’t need to “be a salesperson” to succeed in sales * Why building capital now matters most, even if you don’t know the play yet If you enjoyed this, drop a comment with your #1 mindset shift from the episode.

Mid-Day Squares' Nick Saltarelli on Family Business, Storytelling & Grief

I’m so hyped to finally share my convo with Nick from Mid-Day Squares! This moment felt surreal - I remember watching his wife Lezlie’s videos years ago, where she and the team would share the ups and downs of starting a business, from the tears to the legal battles with Hershey’s 🍫… Long before it was trendy to “build in public,” I’ve watched MDS pave the way as true pioneers in showing it all online. What makes their journey even more unique? Lezlie’s married to Nick, and Jake is Nick’s brother-in-law! Yet they’ve somehow made it work through some seriously high-stakes moments. This convo went beyond the business side of things (you guys know I love the fluff 😋), so I got to learn more about Nick’s story, as well as: ✨what grief has taught Nick about the true meaning of life ✨why most family businesses fail & how weekly therapy sessions have helped MDS beat the odds ✨how to foster true, authentic storytelling in today’s digital age Tune in for an inspiring discussion about entrepreneurship, the chocolate industry, and the power of storytelling.   Don’t forget to subscribe wherever you listen to your podcasts.

Tefari Bailey on Dragons’ Den, Discipline & Building for the Underserved

Hi friends!! 👋 You’ll notice a different setup this time... I had the chance to head to Toronto and sit down with Tefari Bailey, founder and CEO of the million-dollar FinTech company Hutsy. Tefari’s not your average entrepreneur. He’s been on Dragons’ Den, won StartupFest, and was named Entrepreneur of the Year. In this episode, we go deep into how his mind works - and learn about his morning routine to how he pitched (and got funding!) on Dragons Den with no product or revenue. Tefari shares what it's like to build as a founder with purpose - from watching his mom work three jobs growing up, to creating tools that help others escape financial strain. I loved getting inside his head and unpacking what it really takes to build from the ground up.   FOLLOW RIM/IN THE LMNT ON: IG: https://www.instagram.com/inthelmnt/ [https://www.instagram.com/inthelmnt/] Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@IntheLMNTPodcast [https://www.youtube.com/@IntheLMNTPodcast] Tik Tok: tiktok.com/@inthelmnt Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/in-the-lmnt/id1761698315 [https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/in-the-lmnt/id1761698315]  Spotify Podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/4Wx9XTOg3ixa8C5DeksZRN?si=6ca911ef473449f5 [https://open.spotify.com/show/4Wx9XTOg3ixa8C5DeksZRN?si=6ca911ef473449f5]    FOLLOW TEFARI ON: IG: https://www.instagram.com/tefaribailey/ [https://www.instagram.com/tefaribailey/]
