    EPISODE 150 - NICK AYALA

    Do you really understand what discipline, success, responsibility, and impact mean in real life? Probably not the way you think.In this episode of the Out of the System Podcast, I, Leo Climaco, have a no-nonsense conversation with Nick Ayala about what truly sustains long-term success — and why most people fail even when they’re talented, smart, and well-intentioned.Nick has built and sold multimillion-dollar businesses, operated companies across multiple continents, and worked directly with investors, funds, and founders. But the focus of this conversation isn’t money. It’s structure.This episode isn’t about cheap motivation, catchy slogans, or “positive thinking.” It exposes truths most people choose to ignore:Freedom without discipline leads to chaos.Ambition without structure comes with a hidden cost.Money without purpose is never enough.Nick breaks down why so many people work hard but stay stuck, how a lack of personal discipline can destroy promising businesses, and why investors evaluate the founder before even looking at the company.We dive into topics rarely discussed openly:The false belief that working harder always solves problems.Why discipline matters more than talent.The real cost of success on family and personal life.Why impact becomes more important than money.The biggest mistake founders make when seeking investment.Why investors bet on people, not presentations.Dubai, global capital, and long-term vision.Discipline as an invisible advantage in a distracted world.This isn’t a comfortable conversation.It doesn’t promise shortcuts.It doesn’t sell illusions.It’s a clear look at why so many people have potential — but live below what they could actually build.If you feel capable, visionary, and ambitious, yet find yourself tired, frustrated, or trapped in repeating cycles — this episode is for you.🎧 Watch closely. Some truths only work if you’re willing to face them head-on.📲 Follow on social media:LEO CLIMACO PODCASThttps://www.instagram.com/leoclimacopodcast/https://www.tiktok.com/@leoclimacopodcasthttps://www.youtube.com/@leoclimacopodcasthttp://leoclimacopodcast.comLEO CLIMACOhttps://www.instagram.com/leoclimacohttp://leoclimaco.comFORGE STUDIOhttps://www.instagram.com/forgestudio.florida/http://forgestudiofl.comNICK AYALA https://www.instagram.com/nickjayala/https://www.facebook.com/nicholasjamesayalahttps://www.linkedin.com/in/nickjayala

    EPISODE 148 - JOSEPH PRIDGEN

    Do you really understand what freedom, choice, responsibility, and direction mean in modern life?Maybe not.In this episode of the Out of the System Podcast, Leo Climaco sits down with Joseph Pridgen for a direct conversation about why the modern idea of freedom is failing — and how the rejection of authority, principles, and personal responsibility has created confusion, self-sabotage, and lives without direction.This conversation isn’t about institutional religion, motivational talk, or recycled clichés.It goes straight to a truth most people avoid facing:Freedom without authority leads to chaos.Choice without consequence becomes an illusion.Awareness without submission to truth turns into disguised pride.Joseph breaks down why intelligent people remain trapped in destructive patterns, how culture normalized the absence of limits, and why the pursuit of absolute autonomy has produced a generation that is informed — but lost.Throughout the episode, Leo and Joseph explore topics many prefer to ignore:The illusion of “I’m in control”Self-sabotage disguised as freedomPrinciples as something practical, not abstractFaith as direction, not performancePersonal responsibility in a culture that outsources blameThe cost of living without internal governanceWhy knowing is not the same as obeyingHow choices build — or destroy — a life over timeThis is not a comfortable conversation.It offers no shortcuts.It makes no quick promises.It’s an honest diagnosis of the crisis of direction we’re living through — on an individual level.If you’ve ever felt that you have information, ability, and potential…yet still live with internal conflict, repeating patterns you know don’t work —This episode is for you.🎧 Watch closely.Some truths only work when you’re willing to face them head-on.📲 Follow on social media:LEO CLIMACO PODCASThttps://www.instagram.com/leoclimacopodcast/https://www.tiktok.com/@leoclimacopodcasthttps://www.youtube.com/@leoclimacopodcasthttp://leoclimacopodcast.comLEO CLIMACOhttps://www.instagram.com/leoclimacohttp://leoclimaco.comFORGE STUDIOhttps://www.instagram.com/forgestudio.florida/http://forgestudiofl.comJOSEPH PRIDGENhttps://www.instagram.com/josephpridgen/https://josephpridgen.com/jp-publishing/?utm_source=ig&utm_medium=social&utm_content=link_in_bio&fbclid=PAZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAc3J0YwZhcHBfaWQMMjU2MjgxMDQwNTU4AAGnn3cBdIRffaCwHzWTejW90vy57Rno6mmTPcPyNLYdmLXJc3hlMIAYnfXlb7I_aem_1V7RAa-9q_tDZb4Jaw6SaQ

    EPISODE 146 - DR. PATTY E MASON

    In this episode of Out of the System, Leo Climaco sits down with Dr. Patty E Mason — immigrant, financial wellness expert, and founder of the upcoming Financial Wellness Academy — to reveal a truth most people never hear: You don’t have a money problem. You have a survival problem. Dr. Patty shares how growing up in survival mode as an immigrant child shapes the way people think about money, success, taxes, saving, investing, and even their own self-worth.Even when people start making money, their nervous system and mindset are still programmed to fear loss — which leads to self-sabotage, bad financial habits, and constant stress. In this conversation, you’ll learn: Why many high earners are still financially unsafe How survival mentality creates destructive money patterns Why money itself isn’t good or bad — it’s a tool How to shift from survival to a thriving mindset And how Dr. Patty’s Financial Wellness Academy aims to help families build real financial stability This episode isn’t about getting rich.It’s about breaking free from fear, trauma, and financial ignorance — so you can finally build a life that feels safe, stable, and abundant. 📲 Follow on social media: LEO CLIMACO PODCAST https://www.instagram.com/leoclimacopodcast https://www.tiktok.com/@leoclimacopodcast https://www.youtube.com/@leoclimacopodcast http://leoclimacopodcast.com LEO CLIMACO https://www.instagram.com/leoclimaco http://leoclimaco.com FORGE STUDIO https://www.instagram.com/forgestudio.florida/ http://forgestudiofl.com DR.
