    Why Solar Created More Millionaires Than Any Industry (Then Destroyed Them) | Mana Kobe E517

    Make sure you go check out and follow Mana over on IG and his own podcast: IG: https://www.instagram.com/mana_k33 PODCAST: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/from-door-to-door-to-multimillion-dollar-ceo-cody-veivell/id1877761688?i=1000768614448 From pro athlete to solar industry leader, Mana Kobe is playing a different kind of game now and he is just getting started. On this episode of the Podcast, recorded live at the Yacht Workshop in San Diego, Mana breaks down his journey from playing basketball overseas to building one of the top solar organizations in the country. He gets real about what it cost him to figure out the game, from failing at his first business to humbling himself and going back to learn before he led. The lessons Mana drops in this conversation are ones every entrepreneur needs to hear. Before you run the business, you have to learn the business. Stop trying to do everything yourself. And if you want to make high-value money, you have to be willing to spend high-value money on yourself first. His goal is a billion-dollar company, and the way he talks about it, it sounds less like a dream and more like a deadline. Tune in.

Rich Somers sits down with Nick Fowler to break down how he went from $0 to $50K per month using TikTok Shop, and why this model may be one of the most overlooked opportunities heading into 2026. Instead of chasing virality, Nick explains the systems, discipline, and repetition required to make TikTok Shop work consistently—not just once. The conversation dives into what actually drives conversions on the platform, why most people fail after early traction, and how Nick approached product selection, content volume, and iteration without relying on hype or shortcuts. He shares the mistakes beginners make, the mindset shift required to scale, and why treating this like a real business—not a quick win—is the difference maker.
