    139. Afraid to Fail? That’s the Real Trap ft. Kerim Kfuri

    He walked into an office one morning and by sundown the entire department was gone—boxes in the hallway, jobs erased in an instant. Before that, he had built a dot-com only to watch it collapse. Medicine, finance, entertainment, supply chains—every path seemed to twist, stall, or shatter beneath his feet. But instead of breaking, he adapted. Each setback sharpened his vision. Each detour pulled him closer to the truth: fulfillment matters more than achievement, and the greatest risk isn’t failure—it’s never daring to dream. This is the story of Kerim Kfuri—and the lessons he uncovered on turning fear, regret, and detours into a life lived without limits.

This episode unpacks fear as the hidden gatekeeper, why mediocrity feels safe, and how delayed gratification fuels true success. It’s a story of setbacks, revelations, and the price most refuse to pay—turning fear into the fuel for growth.

    137. Hidden Money, Loud Suits, and Hard Truths? ft. Matthew Lesko

    Matthew Lesko, the OG Question Mark Suit Guy, crashes into the podcast with more energy than a double espresso. He rants, raves, and revolutionizes your idea of money—turns out the real flex isn’t making millions, it’s knowing where the free millions are hiding. From teaching you how to scam the system (legally) to exposing Google as a capitalist swamp, Matthew drops truth bombs, charts, and dad jokes like it’s his cardio. Somewhere between flaming capitalism and hugging community help desks, he makes you laugh, think, and maybe—just maybe—finally apply for that free rent grant you never knew existed. Oh, and his fashion sense? Liberace meets Mr. Rogers on acid. You’re welcome.

    134. Burning the Boats, Rewriting Life, and Building a Dream Together - Craig & Meredith Bennett

    Craig and Meredith Bennette had everything they were told would make them happy—stable jobs, steady paychecks, and a clear path forward. But when faced with a life-altering choice—relocate for work or step into the unknown—they chose the terrifying path of uncertainty. A family health scare reminded them that time, not money, was the real currency, and they walked away from the corporate world in search of something more. Their first attempt at entrepreneurship, driven by financial fear, led to frustration and misalignment. It wasn’t until they prioritized personal growth and clarity that everything shifted. In this episode, they share why chasing money first is a losing game, how self-work fuels success, and why your business—and life—will never outgrow your mindset. If you’ve ever felt stuck or afraid to take the leap, this conversation is your sign. Tune in now and subscribe to keep exploring the human experience. Key Takeaways 1. Your Mind is Lying to You – Every negative behavior or emotion is rooted in an unconscious belief formed in childhood. Until you rewrite that belief, it will control your actions. 2. Healing Yourself Heals Others – Parents unknowingly pass their own traumas to their children. True generational change starts with self-love and breaking unconscious cycles. 3. You Are Already Enough – No amount of money, success, or validation will make you feel worthy if you don’t believe it yourself. True fulfillment comes from within. Key Takeaways Money Follows Purpose, Not the Other Way Around – Chasing money first led Craig & Meredith down dead-end paths. When they prioritized clarity and personal growth, everything changed.Your Business Will Never Outgrow Your Mindset – No amount of effort will fix a broken foundation. Personal growth is not optional; it’s the prerequisite for lasting success.Incremental Change Creates Massive Transformation – Rewriting limiting beliefs doesn’t happen overnight. Small, believable mindset shifts compound into a new reality. Craig & Meredith’s Info: Instagram Website YouTube ⁠Instagram⁠ ⁠Review Me on Apple ⁠⁠Share a Link to My Podcast
