If your business disappeared tomorrow, what would you have left?

In this snapshot, Carl is joined by wealth strategist Todd Polke and they deliver the financial wake-up call most business owners don’t see coming.

If you're pouring everything into your business and banking on a big payday “someday,” you’re playing a dangerous game.

Carl and Todd unpack how to break free from the time for money trap, why your business isn’t your retirement plan, and how to build a life that’s unlimited by income, even if you’re not “investment ready” yet.

If you’ve been treating your business like your future nest egg, this is your financial intervention.

The grind won’t make you wealthy. Strategy will.

Drowning in calls, chats, and constant context switching? You’re not alone.

In this episode, I’m joined by productivity expert and father of five, Ari Meisel, to unpack how to reclaim your time, simplify communication, and build a business that doesn’t run your life.

We dive deep into voice-first systems, asynchronous communication, and smart use of AI, all designed to help you show up as a better business owner and a more present dad. Ari shares how he runs his business with no team, no meetings, and no chaos, while still being deeply connected with his clients, his family, and his community.

Ari lays out why voice messaging beats texting across the board for clarity, emotional tone, and real-time flexibility with family, clients, and teams. He also breaks down the four tools every modern business actually needs to function without chaos and where AI can be a game-changer, and where it still falls short.

Most importantly, Ari shares a powerful lens on parenting and leadership in a fast-changing world, one where adaptability and life skills matter more than rigid routines.

This conversation is gold for any dadpreneur who feels the pressure to do it all. It’s not about grinding harder. It’s about being smarter, curating your communication, leveraging voice and AI, and creating systems that serve you, not consume you.

In this episode:

• Why trying to “be clever” might be your biggest wealth blocker
• How to leverage debt (without drowning in it) to grow a serious portfolio
• The simple mindset shift that separates action-takers from armchair experts
• A dead-simple rule of thumb for choosing the right kind of property
