Episode Synopsis

Nick Lamagna and I sat down to talk about what really happens when you're in the trenches, when the deals are falling apart, the pressure's on, and you're questioning everything. We got into the difference between chasing shiny objects and building real wealth through boring businesses, why the best opportunities aren't always the loudest, and how who you surround yourself with can either push you forward or keep you stuck. If you're trying to figure out how to play the long game in business and life, this one's worth your time.
