  3. How One Student Is Shaping the World Through Finance

    How One Student Is Shaping the World Through Finance

    In this episode of Purpose Driven Capital, Matt Johns is joined by Carter Hall, a senior at Liberty University deeply involved in student-managed endowment investing, institutional capital screening, and faith-based finance. Together, they explore the idea of capital stewardship, the belief that money is never neutral, and that ownership carries responsibility, influence, and long-term consequences. Carter shares how his perspective evolved from personal finance into institutional investing, where the scale of capital dramatically increases both impact and accountability. He discusses managing a student-led endowment fund, building negative and positive investment screens, and why many investors unknowingly support activities they would never personally endorse through ETFs and passive portfolios. The conversation also dives into shareholder advocacy and corporate engagement, showing how even relatively small pools of capital can influence corporate behavior when aligned with conviction and coordinated effort. Carter offers an inside look at institutional finance through his experience at Morgan Stanley, explaining how hedge funds, prime brokerage, and large-scale capital allocation actually work behind the scenes. Throughout the episode, Matt and Carter return to a central theme: investing is not just about returns, but about legacy. Whether you’re an individual investor, advisor, student, or someone curious about ethical and faith-informed investing, this episode challenges you to think more deeply about where your money goes, and what it’s ultimately shaping. 📌 Subscribe to our Youtube for new episodes: / @purposedrivencapital 📌 Learn more about Purpose Driven Capital: https://www.purposedrivencapital.co 📌 Follow on LinkedIn for investing insights: / matthewbjohns DISCLAIMER: This video represents the views and opinions of it's guest and does not reflect the views and opinions of HoneyHive Capital Partners LLC.

    Living an Undivided Life Through Business, Culture, and Capital | Jeff Schiefelbein

    In this episode of Purpose Driven Capital, Matt sits down with Jeff Schiefelbein to explore what it really means to live and work with integrity in a world that constantly pulls us in different directions. Jeff shares the idea of the “undivided life”, the belief that when our values, work, faith, and decisions are fragmented, both people and businesses suffer. Drawing from his experience as a founder and culture-builder, Jeff explains why culture is not a perk or HR function, but a strategic foundation, and how ethical capitalism can exist without sacrificing performance or excellence. The conversation dives into how modern business often rewards output while ignoring formation, why success can feel hollow when it costs you your identity, and how leaders unintentionally create divided lives inside their organizations. Jeff challenges the assumption that profit is the ultimate goal and reframes capital as a tool meant to serve people, dignity, and long-term impact. This episode will resonate with founders, investors, executives, and anyone wrestling with the tension between ambition and alignment. It’s a thoughtful discussion about leadership, ownership, and building companies and lives that don’t require compromise at the core. 📌 Subscribe to our Youtube for new episodes: / @purposedrivencapital 📌 Learn more about Purpose Driven Capital: https://www.purposedrivencapital.co 📌 Follow on LinkedIn for investing insights: / matthewbjohns DISCLAIMER: This video represents the views and opinions of it's guest and does not reflect the views and opinions of HoneyHive Capital Partners LLC.
