In 2017, I was living in 150 square foot bedroom in a house that was rented out to five other people and I was serving as a doctor to inmates in Nevada. Today, I live in suburban, Dallas and run multiple 7 and 8 figure businesses. I'm here to tell you – what I have done, you can do. The purpose of my podcast is to motivate you to take ownership of your life, to show you how to operate on elite levels in business and life, and to embrace the mindset that you can overcome anything that stands in your way. It's time to go after what you want - and get it.

    Why Your Skincare Isn't Working - EP 266

    In this episode of The Spinoso Podcast, I sit down with my business partner and CEO of Stature Skin, Amanda May, and we cut through the noise in the skincare industry. No fluff. No 30-step routines. No marketing hype. We break down what actually works when it comes to tone, texture, hydration, brightening, and long-term skin longevity. Why most people fail with skincare isn't because products don't work. It's because they're confused, inconsistent, and sold too many things they don't need. We talk about actives versus buzzwords, why aggressive exfoliation is overrated, why hydration is misunderstood, and how we built a simplified system designed for real consistency. We also get into the business side—why we refused to rush products to market, how to simplify retail inside a clinic, and what's coming next. If you want skin that looks strong, healthy, and built to age well without 15 steps, this episode is for you. Disclaimer: This episode is for educational purposes only and is not medical advice.

    The Mirror Isn't the Work - EP 265

    Everyone is chasing upgrades. Better hair. Better body. Better house. Better brand. Better numbers. And I get it. I've done it. I was going bald. I hated it. So I fixed it. I got the transplant. I built the clinic. I grew the beard. I leaned into it. Look good, feel good, play good. I'm not anti-upgrade. I built businesses around external upgrades. But here's what nobody tells you. Fixing the outside does not fix the inside. Hair didn't give me direction. Looking better didn't give me purpose. Confidence without clarity is still hollow. Success without alignment is still exhausting. In this episode, I break down the trap high performers fall into. The belief that if we just optimize the surface, the depth will sort itself out. If I make more money, I'll feel settled. If I look sharper, I'll feel clear. If I upgrade the body, the noise in my head will finally shut up. It won't. At some point, the mirror stops being the problem. The real work is internal. It's discipline over distraction. It's deciding who you're becoming. It's building a life that feels aligned instead of just impressive. It's the quiet decisions you make when nobody is watching. Upgrade the outside if you want. You should. Just don't confuse upgrades with answers. Because what's in the mirror isn't the work.

    AI Will Not Replace You. It Will Expose You - EP 264

    Let's stop pretending this isn't happening. AI does not get tired. It does not argue with its spouse before work. It does not transpose a decimal. It does not forget to ask the question you were supposed to ask. It works 24/7. No holidays. No emotion. No ego. No fatigue. Just execution. In this episode, we break down what artificial intelligence and telemedicine are actually going to do to medicine, business, and leadership. Not the fear-based nonsense. The reality. We talk about robotic surgeons outperforming humans. AI qualifying patients before they ever speak to a provider. Contracts summarized in 30 seconds. Chief Revenue Officer brains built from decades of sales and marketing data. What happens to low-level employees. What happens to average performers. And why high-value operators are not going anywhere. We also cover compliance, DEA regulations, synchronous vs. asynchronous telehealth, HIPAA systems, and where the legal lines still exist. Because discipline still matters. Here's the truth: AI is not replacing excellence. It is replacing mediocrity. If you are great at what you do, AI amplifies you. If you are average, it exposes you. The future of medicine is speed, precision, consistency, and scale. The companies that win will remove bottlenecks, eliminate busy work, and deliver service faster than ever before. The human connection will still exist. It just will not live in the same place it used to. This is not about fear. It is about leverage. Adapt or get replaced.

    Tim Grover Called Me Out - EP 263

    In this episode of The Spinoso Podcast, I tell a story I don't share often. It's the first year of Arete. I'm broke, overworked, and all-in. I'm working three jobs. I've spent half my life savings just to be in the room. And then Tim Grover takes the stage. Next thing I know, he stops the room and asks for me by name. Not because I was special. Not because I asked for it. But because he was paying attention. He publicly breaks down who I am, what I'm doing, and why excuses don't survive in the presence of discipline. He compares the work ethic required to build a real business to the standard demanded by people like Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant. And then he drops a line I'll never forget. That moment didn't change my trajectory overnight. But it fueled the hell out of it. We talk about being recognized when you're not looking for applause, what it means to be a "Cleaner," why Cleaners never think they are one, and how quiet execution compounds over time. This is a full-circle moment, a leadership lesson, and a reminder that the work always shows… eventually.

    Adapt or Get Left Behind - EP 262

    In this episode, I break down where business is actually going, not where people hope it's going. Telemedicine, AI, automation, and remote services aren't trends. They're the new front door. And if your business isn't built to deliver speed, access, and convenience, someone else will eat your lunch. This isn't just healthcare. This applies to every industry that touches a customer. We get real about why most outpatient medicine no longer needs a physical exam, how telehealth has quietly existed for decades, and why cash-pay, convenience-driven care is accelerating fast. I talk about hormones, weight loss, MedSpas, commoditization, big players like Hims, regulatory shifts, and why the businesses that adapt early will scale while everyone else complains about margins and churn. Then we zoom out. Real estate, beauty, architecture, home design, retail, customer service, training, content, even checkout experiences. Every industry has its own version of telehealth. The winners are building hybrid models that remove friction, move faster, and let technology do what humans shouldn't be doing anymore. This episode is a warning and a roadmap. Adapt now, or get left behind.

    Your Adversity Isn't Custom-Made - EP 261

    Most people don't fail because they lack information. They fail because they're addicted to the idea that their situation is different. In this episode, I break down a lesson that's followed me since Jesuit high school. A priest once explained why nothing shocks him anymore. Not sin. Not failure. Not excuses. And it turns out that lesson is the exact framework most adults need to stop sabotaging themselves. Running businesses. Raising kids. Leading teams. Getting punched in the face by lawsuits, chaos, staff issues, market shifts, and pressure. I've lived all of it. And here's the hard truth: none of it is unique. Your market isn't special. Your schedule isn't special. Your stress isn't special. Your excuses definitely aren't special. The moment you stop arguing for your own exceptional suffering is the moment you stop hunting for magical answers and start executing on the boring fundamentals that actually work. This episode is about dropping the drama, killing the ego, and reclaiming momentum. Because you don't need a custom solution built in a lab. You already know what to do. You just don't want to do it. And that honesty? That's where progress starts. If you're ready to stop whining, stop romanticizing struggle, and get back to work, this one's for you.

    Unemployable, Uncomfortable, and All In - EP 260

    In this episode of The Spinoso Podcast, I break down what it really means to be "unemployable" and why that's not an insult. It's a standard. It's the inability to tolerate mediocrity, the refusal to be comfortable, and the discipline to push past "good enough" in every area of life and business. We talk about the difference between being truly unemployable and being undisciplined, why the people who build systems rarely fit inside them, and why growth requires living in constant discomfort. I share stories from my dad, from building Genesis, from leading high-level teams, and from choosing the wild ride over the safe one every single time. We also get into generosity without optics, giving without expecting anything back, and why money doesn't change who you are, it just amplifies it. These are principles that apply whether you're building a business, leading a team, raising a family, or trying to live with more intention and integrity. If you're someone who feels out of place in average environments, gets restless when things get easy, and knows deep down you were meant for more, this episode will hit home.

    Don't Sit at Idle - EP 259

    There's a difference between being healthy and being alive, and most people confuse the two. In this episode, I break down why waiting to feel ready is the fastest way to waste your life. I tell the story of Carroll Shelby, a man who raced Le Mans with a failing heart, nitroglycerin under his tongue, and zero permission from the universe. Not because it was safe. Because it mattered. We talk about builders, founders, and creators who didn't wait for perfect conditions. Frida Kahlo creating from a hospital bed. Stephen Hawking rewriting physics with a body that was shutting down. People who moved anyway, even when fear was loud and the body wasn't cooperating. This isn't motivation. This is reality. The fear never goes away. The timing is never perfect. Your heart will always pound when it's time to move. That's not a warning sign. That's life telling you you're in the driver's seat. If you're building a business, carrying a vision, or standing at the edge of a decision you keep delaying, this episode is your reminder: you don't need to feel ready. You need to move. Don't wait to feel safe. Don't wait to feel steady. Don't sit at idle. Get in the car. Drive anyway.
