Investing in Real Estate with NO Profits (And How I Fixed It) with Jason Lavender

December 16, 2025

In this episode, I sit down with Jason Lavender — a real estate investor and former painting contractor — who gets real about his rocky relationship with money and how Profit First finally changed his life. Jason shares the painful truth about how he ran his business by looking at his bank balance, faced constant stress despite making money, and ignored the warning signs until everything boiled over.

What makes this episode so powerful is Jason’s honesty. He didn’t get it right the first — or even the second — time he tried Profit First. But when he finally committed, delegated implementation, and surrendered access to his own money, everything shifted. We talk about how he transitioned from a chaotic hustle into a clear, structured, and profitable business, and how you can too.

Why Your First Exit Could Be the Key to Financial and Time Freedom with Eddie Wilson

December 9, 2025

In this powerful episode, I sit down with my long-time friend and serial entrepreneur Eddie Wilson — widely known as the “King of Exits” — to unpack what it truly means to build with purpose. Eddie shares how he has successfully exited over 113 companies and why his mission extends far beyond business. From navigating his first accidental exit to building a global nonprofit impacting 108 countries, Eddie walks us through how purpose, fulfillment, and systems of leadership have shaped his entrepreneurial path.

We also dive deep into his real estate journey, how he integrates tax strategy and endowments, and why legacy means creating something that can thrive without placing a burden on the next generation. Whether you’re a real estate investor, business owner, or mission-driven leader, this episode will challenge your definition of success and ignite a deeper sense of intentionality in your work.

Amber’s not only the powerhouse who helped me launch Profit First for Real Estate Investing, but she’s also a deeply authentic entrepreneur with a remarkable journey of resilience and transformation.

Amber shares the emotional backstory that shaped her mission to help others feel heard, seen, and valued — and how that mission now fuels everything from book launches to marketing strategy. We dive into the real root of resistance, how entrepreneurs can overcome visibility fears, and why getting into alignment might be the most important step you’re skipping.
