    Chief Revenue Officer on How To Become a Millionaire (Even on a Salary)

    Wealth doesn’t have to start with owning a business, buying investment property, or having access to a huge amount of capital. Chris Brodhead, Chief Revenue Officer at Keller Williams, joins us at Mega Camp 2026 to rethink what building wealth can look like. Drawing from two decades in private equity, real estate investing, and wealth management, Chris explains how disciplined saving, low-cost investing, thoughtful budgeting, and time can help everyday earners build meaningful financial freedom. We also discuss retirement options for entrepreneurs, why expertise can attract investment capital, and how to evaluate opportunity through the lens of risk and return. Chris also shares how Keller Williams is approaching organic growth, agent attraction, and brokerage acquisitions as new opportunities emerge across the real estate industry. His challenge is simple: decide what an abundant life looks like for us, build a plan around it, and go after it. We Talk About:  [00:00] Redefining What Wealth Really Means [04:03] Turning Income Into Long-Term Wealth [06:54] Expertise First, Capital Second [08:51] Balancing Risk With the Right Opportunity [10:06] Keller Williams’ Growth and Acquisition Opportunity [15:45] Retirement Planning for Entrepreneurs [19:59] The Long Game of Low-Cost Investing Resources: Learn more at The Color of MoneyConnect with Chris Brodhead on LinkedIn Become a real estate agent HERE Connect with Our Hosts Emerick Peace: Instagram: @theemerickpeaceFacebook: facebook.com/emerickpeace Daniel Dixon: Instagram: @dixonsolditFacebook: facebook.com/realdanieldixonLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/dixonsolditYouTube: @dixongroupcompanies Julia Lashay: Instagram: @iamjulialashayFacebook: facebook.com/growwithjuliaLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/julialashay/YouTube: @JuliaLashay Bo Menkiti Instagram: @bomenkitiFacebook: facebook.com/obiora.menkitiLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/bomenkiti/ Produced by NOVA This podcast is for general informational purposes only.

    How to Find A Deal in Commercial Real Estate with Rafik Moore

    Commercial real estate can feel like a game reserved for people with deep pockets, decades of experience, and the right connections. In this episode, we sit down with Rafik Moore to break down why that belief keeps too many of us on the sidelines. We explore how to recognize a real commercial opportunity, why problem properties can become profitable deals, and how relationships can matter more than having our own capital. Rafik also walks us through a real-world deal where a newer investor brought hustle and local knowledge while an experienced partner supplied capital and expertise. We also examine ownership as a tool for strengthening communities. When neighborhoods improve, the people who live there should have the opportunity to participate in the wealth being created. The message is simple: learn the game, find solvable problems, bring value to the right relationships, and start playing. We Talk About: [00:00] Breaking Into Commercial Real Estate [05:33] Turning Barriers Into Opportunity [8:05] Your First Move in Commercial Real Estate [11:27] What Makes a Deal Worth Doing [14:08] Train Your Deal Brain [21:35] Relationships Are the Real Currency [26:47] Building Wealth and Stronger Communities [48:07] The One Thing to Take With You Resources: Learn more at The Color of MoneyLearn more about Value Add NetworkFind Rafik Moore on InstagramRafik Moore on YouTubeBecome a real estate agent HERE Connect with Our Hosts Emerick Peace: Instagram: @theemerickpeaceFacebook: facebook.com/emerickpeace Daniel Dixon: Instagram: @dixonsolditFacebook: facebook.com/realdanieldixonLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/dixonsolditYouTube: @dixongroupcompanies Julia Lashay: Instagram: @iamjulialashayFacebook: facebook.com/growwithjuliaLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/julialashay/YouTube: @JuliaLashay Bo Menkiti Instagram: @bomenkitiFacebook: facebook.com/obiora.menkitiLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/bomenkiti/ Produced by NOVA This podcast is for general informational purposes only.

    Can You Trick Yourself Into Being Consistent?

    Why do we suddenly become our most focused, disciplined selves when our backs are against the wall? In this episode, we dig into why pressure can bring out incredible execution while ordinary days often lead to distraction, procrastination, and inconsistency. We explore the difference between actually doing our best work under pressure and simply waiting until pressure removes every other option. We talk about clarity, calendars, habits, accountability, and why entrepreneurs often give themselves flexibility they would never have on someone else’s payroll. We also break down three levels of performance: being emotion-driven, consequence-driven, and ultimately standards-driven. The goal is to move beyond relying on motivation or crisis and build a way of working that is consistent regardless of how much pressure we feel. We discuss how small wins, better structure, fewer distractions, and stronger accountability can create momentum over time. The real question is how we become the kind of people who execute on an ordinary Tuesday, not just when everything is on the line. We Talk About:  [00:00] The Power of Loss and Urgency [03:33] Discipline, Clarity, or Habit? [07:52] Building a Habit of Preparation [09:17] Performing Without Your Back Against the Wall [16:12] Clarity Creates Focus [19:50] Remove the Options, Remove the Distractions [31:14] From Emotion-Driven to Standards-Driven Resources: Learn more at The Color of MoneyBecome a real estate agent HERE Connect with Our Hosts Emerick Peace: Instagram: @theemerickpeaceFacebook: facebook.com/emerickpeace Daniel Dixon: Instagram: @dixonsolditFacebook: facebook.com/realdanieldixonLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/dixonsolditYouTube: @dixongroupcompanies Julia Lashay: Instagram: @iamjulialashayFacebook: facebook.com/growwithjuliaLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/julialashay/YouTube: @JuliaLashay Bo Menkiti Instagram: @bomenkitiFacebook: facebook.com/obiora.menkitiLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/bomenkiti/ Produced by NOVA This podcast is for general informational purposes only.

    Think Like a CEO: The Reality of Entrepreneurship

    Being our own boss sounds exciting until we realize the boss is now responsible for everything. In this episode, we unpack the truth about entrepreneurship and what it actually means to build a business worth owning. We talk about why having a real estate license doesn’t automatically make us business owners, why consistent lead generation and measurable activity matter, and how easy it is to treat our businesses like side hustles instead of companies. We also dig into one of the hardest parts of entrepreneurship: accountability. Without a boss watching the clock, we have to create our own standards, keep our commitments, and surround ourselves with people willing to challenge us when we fall short. Finally, we explore what it means to think like a CEO, accept risk, develop as leaders, and take full ownership of our results. Entrepreneurship isn’t for everyone, but if we choose it, we have to be willing to bet on ourselves. We Talk About:  [00:00] The Hard Truth About Being Your Own Boss [04:10] Your Results Are Your Responsibility [08:16] Building a Real Business, Not a Side Hustle [10:50] Accountability Changes Everything [21:28] From Employee Mindset to CEO Mindset [26:41] The Risk Behind the Reward [29:02] Truth About Entrepreneurship  Resources: Learn more at The Color of MoneyListen to Think Like a CEO with Gary Keller and Jay PapasanBecome a real estate agent HERE Connect with Our Hosts Emerick Peace: Instagram: @theemerickpeaceFacebook: facebook.com/emerickpeace Daniel Dixon: Instagram: @dixonsolditFacebook: facebook.com/realdanieldixonLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/dixonsolditYouTube: @dixongroupcompanies Julia Lashay: Instagram: @iamjulialashayFacebook: facebook.com/growwithjuliaLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/julialashay/YouTube: @JuliaLashay Bo Menkiti Instagram: @bomenkitiFacebook: facebook.com/obiora.menkitiLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/bomenkiti/ Produced by NOVA This podcast is for general informational purposes only.

    Turning a Side Hustle Into a Blue Collar Empire with Cornell & Wayne Mills

    A snowstorm, a few shovels, and a willingness to do the work became the foundation of a multimillion-dollar enterprise. In this episode, we sit down with brothers Wayne and Cornell Mills of RNS Facility Services to hear how a seasonal side hustle grew into a full-service facilities management company. We explore the moment they stopped trying to perform every job themselves, built a trusted subcontractor network, and shifted their attention toward sales, systems, recruiting, communication, and relationships. They also share how acquiring a cleaning company shortly before COVID-19 positioned them to meet a sudden surge in demand and scale their workforce. At the heart of their story is cooperative economics. By partnering with local tradespeople and supporting entrepreneurs through the Blue Collar Academy, Wayne and Cornell are building opportunities alongside revenue. We also discuss working with family, using AI in a blue-collar business, investing for the next generation, and what it means to be the CEO of our last name. We Talk About: [00:00] The CEO of Your Last Name [05:22] From Snowstorm to Startup [08:35] Turning a Side Hustle Into a Business [12:20] Dropping the Ego [16:35] Letting Client Needs Drive Growth [20:50] The Power of Cooperative Economics [31:38] Stop Being the Bottleneck [43:23] Building a Legacy That Lasts Resources: Learn more at The Color of MoneyRNS Facility ServicesBecome a real estate agent HERE Connect with Our Hosts Emerick Peace: Instagram: @theemerickpeaceFacebook: facebook.com/emerickpeace Daniel Dixon: Instagram: @dixonsolditFacebook: facebook.com/realdanieldixonLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/dixonsolditYouTube: @dixongroupcompanies Julia Lashay: Instagram: @iamjulialashayFacebook: facebook.com/growwithjuliaLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/julialashay/YouTube: @JuliaLashay Bo Menkiti Instagram: @bomenkitiFacebook: facebook.com/obiora.menkitiLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/bomenkiti/ Produced by NOVA This podcast is for general informational purposes only.

    Your Ego And Your AI Are Incompatible

    AI may replace more of our daily work than we expect, but that does not mean it has to replace our value. In this episode, we begin our conversation about what AI can replace in real estate, business, and everyday life. We explore how it can handle listing descriptions, social media content, scheduling, emails, underwriting, compliance, database follow-up, and other repetitive tasks that consume our time without creating meaningful value for our clients. We also examine the ego that can keep us from using AI effectively. When we focus on getting it right instead of proving we are right, AI becomes a coach in our pocket, helping us ask better questions, evaluate decisions, communicate more clearly, and recognize our own blind spots. The real opportunity is to let AI replace our inefficiencies so we can spend more time in our gift zone. Our human connection, emotional intelligence, curiosity, judgment, and ability to execute still matter. The question is whether we will adapt before we are forced to. We Talk About: [00:00] Check Your Ego at the Door [02:10] The Jobs and Tasks AI Is Already Replacing [05:56] Getting It Right Beats Being Right [08:555] Let AI Handle the Content Grind [12:30] Better Questions Create Better Answers [22:45] Find Your Gift Zone Before AI Finds Your Weakness Resources: Learn more at The Color of MoneyRead Ego Is the Enemy by Ryan HolidayBecome a real estate agent HERE Connect with Our Hosts Emerick Peace: Instagram: @theemerickpeaceFacebook: facebook.com/emerickpeace Daniel Dixon: Instagram: @dixonsolditFacebook: facebook.com/realdanieldixonLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/dixonsolditYouTube: @dixongroupcompanies Julia Lashay: Instagram: @iamjulialashayFacebook: facebook.com/growwithjuliaLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/julialashay/YouTube: @JuliaLashay Bo Menkiti Instagram: @bomenkitiFacebook: facebook.com/obiora.menkitiLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/bomenkiti/ Produced by NOVA This podcast is for general informational purposes only.

    Health is Wealth: How to Stay Healthy While Building A Big Business

    We often talk about building wealth through business, real estate, income, and investments. But in this episode, we challenge ourselves to look at the asset that makes all of that possible: our health. We dig into the connection between physical health, mental health, stress, discipline, decision-making, and long-term wealth creation. From gym routines and bloodwork to AI health tracking, executive physicals, depression, financial stress, and the realities facing Black communities, this conversation gets honest about what happens when we ignore our bodies and minds while chasing success. We also share personal stories about stress, poor decisions, burnout, and the cost of putting everyone else first. The reminder is simple but urgent: we cannot build, lead, earn, serve, or leave a legacy if we are running on empty. Health is not separate from wealth. Health is wealth. We Talk About: [00:00] Health Is the First Asset [03:07] The Body Gets Ignored [07:26] Money Isn’t the Whole Portfolio [08:29] Stress Is the Silent Tax [14:35] Habits With Real ROI [20:02] Discipline Shows Up Everywhere [30:51] Put the Oxygen Mask on First Resources: Learn more at The Color of MoneyLearn more at LifeForceBecome a real estate agent HERE Connect with Our Hosts Emerick Peace: Instagram: @theemerickpeaceFacebook: facebook.com/emerickpeace Daniel Dixon: Instagram: @dixonsolditFacebook: facebook.com/realdanieldixonLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/dixonsolditYouTube: @dixongroupcompanies Julia Lashay: Instagram: @iamjulialashayFacebook: facebook.com/growwithjuliaLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/julialashay/YouTube: @JuliaLashay Bo Menkiti Instagram: @bomenkitiFacebook: facebook.com/obiora.menkitiLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/bomenkiti/ Produced by NOVA This podcast is for general informational purposes only.

    Your Money Needs a Mission

    Money is not just something we make, save, spend, or invest. It needs a purpose. In this episode, we’re coming to you from KW headquarters during Quantum Leap, where the conversation turns toward mission, vision, purpose, and how those ideas connect to our financial lives. We talk about the difference between having goals and having a mission, why a personal mission can guide what we say yes to, and how money becomes more meaningful when it supports the life we actually want to build. Emerick shares how his mission evolved from his own children to helping children in his community. Daniel gets honest about struggling to define a mission, and Julia walks through a simple framework for creating one. At the heart of this conversation is one question: if money showed up tomorrow, would we know what it was for? We Talk About: [00:00] Giving Your Money a Mission [01:40] The Difference Between a Mission and a Vision [04:04] When Your Purpose Is Still Taking Shape [09:30] Letting Business Fund the Bigger Life [11:29] Purpose Before Prosperity [22:12] Building a Personal Mission Statement [36:31] The $10 Million Clarity Test Resources: Learn more at The Color of MoneyLearn more about KW Next GenLearn more about Quantum Leap SummitQuantum Leap Activity Become a real estate agent HERE Connect with Our Hosts Emerick Peace: Instagram: @theemerickpeaceFacebook: facebook.com/emerickpeace Daniel Dixon: Instagram: @dixonsolditFacebook: facebook.com/realdanieldixonLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/dixonsolditYouTube: @dixongroupcompanies Julia Lashay: Instagram: @iamjulialashayFacebook: facebook.com/growwithjuliaLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/julialashay/YouTube: @JuliaLashay Bo Menkiti Instagram: @bomenkitiFacebook: facebook.com/obiora.menkitiLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/bomenkiti/ Produced by NOVA This podcast is for general informational purposes only.
