    Winning at Home: Building an Unbreakable Marriage

    What if you put the same intentionality into your marriage that you put into building your business or career?In this episode of the iWealth Podcast, Brad sits down with longtime friend Lamar Lark, founder of Unbreakable Promise, to talk about marriage, purpose, and why success outside the home doesn’t mean nearly as much if you’re not also “winning at home.”After more than 40 years of marriage and decades of working with couples, Lamar and his wife, Brenda, developed Unbreakable Promise to help couples intentionally work on their relationship—not because their marriage is broken, but because strong marriages still deserve attention, coaching, and continued growth.Lamar shares the seven key areas they work through with couples: mindset and emotional intelligence, communication, finances, health and wellness, faith, family, and legacy. The goal is to help each spouse answer an important question: What does it take for me to show up as the best version of myself every day?Just like we have coaches for business, athletics, and other important areas of life, why wouldn’t we intentionally invest time in coaching one of our most important relationships?Brad and Lamar also discuss the 2027 Unbreakable Promise Weekends and how couples can experience the program before committing to the full-year journey.Learn more about Unbreakable Promise at UnbreakablePromise.com.

    We Let a Tesla Drive Us 15 Miles… Here’s What Happened

    What happens when you turn on self-driving and let the car take you all the way to the meat market?Brad and Mega Matt take the iWealth Podcast on the road to test Tesla’s self-driving technology in the real world. After renting a Tesla specifically to experience the technology, Brad puts it to the test on a 15-mile drive—with roundabouts, interstate driving, lane changes, speed changes, traffic, and parking.Along the way, they tackle some bigger questions: Will self-driving cars eventually make our roads safer? Will Ford, GM, Toyota, and other automakers catch up? Will teenagers someday even need to learn how to drive? And could insurance companies eventually charge more—or even refuse coverage—for cars without autonomous driving technology?They also debate what will become commonplace first: fully self-driving cars or household robots.The technology is impressive. Giving up control? That might be the harder part.And yes… the trip ends exactly where it should: with beef sticks and jerky.Would you trust a car to drive you 15 miles without touching the steering wheel?Hashtags#iWealth #iWealthPodcast #SelfDriving #Tesla #AutonomousDriving #FutureTechnology #ArtificialIntelligence #Technology #FutureOfDriving #MegaMatt

    Are You Saving Money but Forgetting to Live?

    What if the best return on your money isn’t always measured in dollars?Brad sits down with his wife, Trudy, to talk about the idea of “memory dividends”—experiences that continue paying you back through the memories you create with family and friends.Those memories don’t have to come from expensive vacations. They can come from a road trip, a concert, an afternoon with friends, working on a project together, or simply spending intentional time with the people you love.The challenge is finding the balance. Save everything for someday, and you may miss opportunities to enjoy life today. Spend everything today, and you may not have the resources to create experiences later.Brad and Trudy share some of their favorite memory dividends and discuss why they intentionally make room in their financial plan for experiences with the people who matter most.Your financial plan should help prepare you for the future—but it should also help you live a meaningful life along the way.What’s one of your favorite “memory dividends”?Hashtags#iWealth #iWealthPodcast #MemoryDividends #FinancialPlanning #MoneyAndLife #IntentionalLiving #FamilyMemories #PersonalFinance #MoneyWisdom #FinancialFreedom

    What Can a 6th Grader Teach Us About Fear, Failure & Compound Interest?

    Grace is back on the iWealth Podcast—and this time she’s talking skateboarding, acting, overcoming fear, and even investing in cows!Brad and Grace talk about how adversity can become an asset. Whether it’s dropping into a skateboard ramp for the first time or walking onto a stage in front of an audience, Grace has discovered something important: confidence often comes from doing the scary thing over and over again.Then the conversation turns to money and compound interest. Grace shares a game where she started with $10,000 and tried to grow it to $1 million. Her investment of choice? Highland cows! As the cows multiplied, she got a pretty memorable lesson in how compounding works.Fear gets smaller with practice. Small investments can grow over time. And sometimes a sixth grader can teach us a thing or two about both.What’s something you were once afraid to do that became easier with practice?Hashtags#iWealth #iWealthPodcast #CompoundInterest #FinancialEducation #MoneyForKids #OvercomingFear #GrowthMindset #Adversity #Investing #MoneyWisdom

    Can You Go One Day Without Your Phone? The Power of a Sabbath

    When was the last time you truly disconnected—not just physically, but mentally?In this episode of the iWealth Podcast, Brad and Mega Matt talk about Sabbath, rest, social media, and what happens when we intentionally create space away from the constant noise of our phones.Brad shares his experiment of disconnecting from Saturday evening through Sunday evening: no social media, email, news, or Apple Watch. Matt shares why some of his best moments of rest have been incredibly simple—being outside, spending time with family, and doing absolutely nothing.The conversation raises a bigger question: Have we filled every day of the week so completely that we've forgotten how to rest?Maybe we all need a little more time to put down the phone, get outside, connect with the people around us, and give our minds permission to rest.Could you disconnect for one day every week?Hashtags#iWealth #iWealthPodcast #Sabbath #DigitalDetox #Rest #SocialMediaDetox #WorkLifeBalance #MentalRest #IntentionalLiving #PurposefulLife
