🎙️ Lightspeed Investing Podcast Episode 104 is now live with Nick Tietz, Founder of ILT Academy. Nick and I had a great conversation about entrepreneurship, raising capital, building businesses that actually solve real problems, and why the founder is often the most important investment an investor makes. What I appreciated most was Nick's commitment to helping what he calls "underestimated entrepreneurs." The people who may not come from Silicon Valley, may not have a million-dollar exit, but are serious about building something meaningful and creating real impact in their communities. W…

Just wrapped up my 3rd guest appearance on The MillionaireByMorning's Podcast with my guy Rashad Thirlkill. Always a great time having real conversations around business, futures & commodities, networking, personal branding, and where the world is heading with AI. One of the biggest things I shared on this episode is this: if you are an entrepreneur, you need to start building your personal brand now. The next few years are going to change everything. AI will disrupt a lot of industries, but one thing nobody can replicate is YOU. Your story, your values, your experiences, your relationship…

Just wrapped up a great conversation on the ITUTv Podcast with Prof. Zae Holmes. We covered a lot of ground, but it all came back to one thing. How people actually perform when pressure is real. I shared my transition from pursuing surgery into building in the markets, and how discipline from sports, medicine, and business all point back to execution. Not theory. Not motivation. Just what you consistently do when conditions are not perfect. We also talked about something a lot of people miss. It is not just about what books you read, but how you apply them based on the stage of life you are in…

We got real about my journey from pre-med and pursuing surgery to stepping into the world of investing, what actually drives wealth creation, and why proximity, mentorship, and self-awareness matter more than most people think. We also talked about breaking out of the traditional career path, building skill sets that actually separate you from the crowd, and how to position yourself in rooms where real opportunities happen.

Just wrapped up my second conversation on The MillionaireByMorning's Podcast with Rashad Thirlkill. Every time I get back on, it is less about "catching up" and more about sharing how fast things evolve when you stay in motion. In this episode, we talked about what has been driving my recent Growth, from building a new luxury assets division to the importance of getting in the right rooms, investing in yourself, and creating real leverage through Relationships. At a certain point, it is not about balancing life and work anymore. It becomes about integrating everything into one aligned path. On…

Most people think marketing is about building a brand first. John Dwyer sees it differently. In Episode 103 of the Lightspeed Investing Podcast, I sat down with John, founder of the Institute of Wow, to break down what actually drives results in today's market. From his early days studying consumer behavior at Woolworths to generating millions in revenue through simple but powerful campaigns, John shares how direct response marketing flips the traditional model. Instead of hoping people eventually trust your brand, you give them a reason to act now and let results build the brand for you. We …

Episode 102 of the Lightspeed Investing Podcast is live, and I had a great conversation with my good friend Pete Grimes joining me from Miami. Pete shares how he went from a high-level marketing career to building a business around helping professionals turn their life's work into a book that actually opens doors. What stood out in this episode is how he reframes the idea of writing a book. It is not about royalties or selling copies, it is about positioning, credibility, and the opportunities that come from having your message clearly articulated and out in the world. We also get into how man…

Episode 101 of the Lightspeed Investing Podcast is live. Had a great conversation with Nathan Gwilliam, founder of PodUp and PodAllies, and we went deep into what it really takes to build a business around a podcast today. Nathan shared his journey from building and selling multiple ventures to creating an all-in-one platform for podcasters, and we talked about why most people struggle to stay consistent, how to actually monetize beyond ads, and what separates those who treat podcasting like a hobby vs those who turn it into something meaningful long term. If you've ever thought about starting…

🚀 Episode 100 of the Lightspeed Investing Podcast is LIVE Hitting this milestone feels special, and even more so with Chad Gracey joining us for this conversation. In this episode, Chad breaks down a completely different way of looking at the sports world, not as gambling, but as a strategy-driven opportunity using arbitrage and disciplined execution. We talked about how he started at 18, how the landscape has evolved with legalized sportsbooks, and how everyday people are using structured systems and data to potentially create consistent side income. What stood out to me is the mindset shi…

🎙️ Episode 99 of the Lightspeed Investing Podcast is live. I sat down with Kelly Cox to talk about his journey from being a VP in a conveyor company to stepping into the world of futures and commodities trading. What stood out to me most was not just his progress, but the mindset shift he had to go through. Like many high income professionals, he started off skeptical. After doing his own research and sitting in on live sessions, he realized this was real, but also understood it would require commitment and discipline. Now he's fully immersed, putting in the reps daily, and building a ski…

Most people hear "hedge funds" and immediately tune out. It sounds complicated. Exclusive. Not meant for them. That's exactly why we had this conversation. On my guesting with Caitlin Cynthia Durning on the End of Mind Podcast, where we broke down what actually happens inside the fund space, how we operate at Lightspeed, and why this entire world is still invisible to most professionals. We talked about the difference between real Estate, private equity, venture capital, and trading… why liquidity matters… and how a high-income skill set can completely change how you approach income, time,…
