    505 | The Hardest Job I’ve Ever Had: Fatherhood, Leadership, and Building Legacy

    In this solo episode, Chaz Wolfe goes deep on one of the most important topics for driven entrepreneurs: the connection between fatherhood, leadership, business, and legacy. Using listener-submitted questions, Chaz breaks down how being a dad has shaped the way he leads his companies, how obsession (not “balance”) is the real key to winning in all areas, and why legacy begins long before wealth ever transfers hands. Chaz shares candid stories from his early years in business — including mistakes, mindset shifts, and the tension between building companies and being present at home. He explains how patience, emotional intelligence, and integrity have been sharpened through raising his four kids, and how intentional leadership as a father directly influences leadership as a CEO. He also dives into the systems he uses to protect family time, the nightly routines that build confidence and identity in his kids, and the principles he’s teaching them around money, mindset, entrepreneurship, and responsibility. Chaz outlines why he believes legacy isn’t about passing wealth to the next generation, but passing it through them — shaping character, habits, decision-making, and leadership across 100 years. If you’re an entrepreneur who wants to win in business and at home, this episode will challenge the way you think about your role, your time, your kids, and the long-term impact of your leadership. 💡 Learn more about the Family Mastermind Vacation — where entrepreneurial families grow closer, dream bigger, and build legacies together. 👉 gatheringthekings.com Like what you heard?

    506 | Why Only 2% Will Ever Win — A Conversation With Carson Porter

    In this powerful conversation, Chaz Wolfe sits down with insurance and financial services leader Carson Porter, a builder of community, a sharp thinker, and a coach who’s helped thousands of agents level up both their mindset and their income. Carson shares openly about the internal battles he’s fought, the identity shifts he’s made, and why helping others has been the key to his own success. Carson breaks down the mindset patterns holding most people back — fear of investing in themselves, hesitation, lack of clarity, and the story loops that keep entrepreneurs “stuck” even when they know what they should do. He dives deep into what he calls “value without expectations,” the belief that true abundance only comes when you stop guarding your value and start giving it away freely. Together, Chaz and Carson unpack the real reason most entrepreneurs don’t take action, the difference between knowing something and actually doing it, and how stepping into community removes blind spots you could never fix alone. Carson shares stories from his massive insurance community, where new agents, million-dollar producers, and everyone in between grow together in a culture built on honesty, commitment, and doing the work no one else wants to do. They explore the power of deep thinking, teaching as a tool for mastery, freedom through remote work, leveling up family life through intentional decisions, and the ripple effect leaders create — a butterfly effect that impacts clients, families, and future generations. If you are an entrepreneur who wants to think bigger, act faster, and surround yourself with people who hold you to a higher standard, this episode will light you up.

    507 | How to Build a Business and a Thriving Family Life at the Same Time with Chaz Wolfe & Jake Isaacs

    In this episode of Driven To Win, Chaz and Jake break down one of the biggest struggles entrepreneurs face: how to build a powerful business without sacrificing the people you love most. They talk openly about the real tension entrepreneurs feel between scaling a company and being present at home, and why so many business owners end up winning on paper but losing in their marriages, their parenting, and their personal peace. Chaz shares how growing up in a single-parent home shaped his view of family, while Jake talks about being raised in a traditional Midwest household and how those two backgrounds lead to the same belief: the family unit matters. They walk through the unique challenges entrepreneurs face — long hours, pressure, responsibility, constant growth — and how those pressures can either strengthen or strain a home depending on the level of intentionality brought to the table. They also hit on why so many entrepreneurs delay “being a present parent or spouse” until later, only to wake up years down the road realizing they missed the moments that mattered. Instead, Chaz and Jake lay out a better path: define what winning looks like in your business and in your family, build systems that support both, and surround yourself with other entrepreneurs who share those same values. You’ll hear them talk about the importance of communication, how entrepreneurs can set up their calendar to reflect their priorities, and why clarity around family goals is just as important as clarity around revenue goals. They share stats on the decline of strong family structures across the country and explain why entrepreneurs must lead the way in creating healthier homes. They also dive into how Gathering The Kings is filling the gap through community, family support, marriage resources, and Generation Next (GXT), the program teaching kids ages 8–18 how to think like leaders and entrepreneurs. Chaz shares stories about his own kids building vision boards and getting excited about their future, and why teaching the next generation is central to true legacy. If you’ve ever felt torn between the business you’re building and the family you love, this episode will help you rethink what’s possible. You don’t have to choose. You can build both — at the same time — with clarity, intentionality, and the right community behind you.

I'm a serial entrepreneur, investor, and founder of Gathering the Kings.Throughout my career, I've built, purchased, and sold multiple 7-figure ventures in franchising, home service, real estate, and consulting. And I know first-hand how being a business owner can be a lonely and isolating experience.I created the 'Driven to Win' podcast to help entrepreneurs who are trapped in the cycle of trying to grow their businesses without having time or energy for anything else. Here, we share insights about self-mastery, emotional intelligence, and resilience so you can find financial freedom, build thriving relationships, and nurture spiritual wellness. Follow wherever you get your podcasts for tips on how to lead a balanced, exceptional life.
