  • Snapshot #28: Why Commercial Outperforms Residential
    Oct 9 2025

    Most people start their investing journey with residential property. It feels familiar, safer, easier.

    But if you’re still playing in that space, you’re probably working harder than you need to.

    In this episode, I sit down with commercial property expert Mish Daniel to unpack why commercial real estate is one of the most underrated wealth vehicles for business owners and entrepreneurs.

    We break down how the smartest investors use commercial property to create predictable income, faster growth, and more time freedom, without the headaches that come with managing tenants, tradies, and constant turnover.

    You’ll learn why commercial tenants pay the bills, how long-term leases create stability banks love, and how even small rent reviews can unlock hundreds of thousands in new property value, without lifting a finger.

    If you’re a business owner or dadpreneur looking to build wealth beyond your business, this episode will show you how to invest like a strategist, not just a landlord.

    You’ll hear:
    • Why most commercial tenants cover the costs that drain residential investors
    • How 5- and 10-year leases create consistency, peace of mind, and lending power
    • The real truth about capital growth (and why commercial isn’t just about cash flow)
    • How annual rent increases quietly compound your returns year after year
    • A live example of one lease review that boosted a property’s value by $700K

  • Snapshot #27: More Money Isn’t Always the Answer
    Aug 18 2025

    You grind, you push, you finally crack 7-figures… and instead of feeling on top of the world, it feels kinda hollow?

    In this snapshot, Carl Taylor and Jackson Millan chat about the silent identity crisis that kicks in once you’ve “made it,” why the revenue game alone won’t keep you motivated, and how to flip your wealth strategy from chasing arbitrary numbers to chasing the life you actually want.

    Whether you’re gunning for 7-figures or already there asking “Now what?”, this one’s for you.


    You’ll hear:

    • Why many entrepreneurs feel less fulfilled after hitting 7-figures
    • The “left to right” thinking that’s silently sabotaging your wealth
    • How to map out a 20-year vision that gives your present-day hustle actual purpose
    • Why creating emotional overlap with your future self unlocks real motivation.
    • How to stop tying your entire identity to your business before it breaks you


    If your business isn’t funding a life that lights you up, what’s the point? Time to stop chasing vanity revenue targets and start chasing meaning.

  • Snapshot #26: Stop Forcing a Business Model That Was Never Really Yours
    Aug 4 2025

    Ever feel like you built a business you kinda hate? Let's unpack that.

    If you’re a front-of-stage founder trying to juggle the CEO title while still being the magician behind the curtain, Clint Salter’s perspective will feel like a splash of truth serum.

    In this snapshot, Clint and Carl get real about what it actually takes to scale past the $1M mark and why trying to “visionary” your way to $10M without a real operator is exactly why you're stuck.


    This is a must-listen if you’re tired of the online noise telling you to “just hire an integrator” or “build a $10M empire” without asking the only question that matters: Do you even want that?


    You’ll hear:

    • Why playing both CEO and guru is the fastest way to stall out between $1M–$3M.
    • The costly mistake of hiring an EA and expecting them to run your business.
    • How a “successful” business model can still burn you out (and what to do instead).
    • Why scaling to $10M only makes sense if it’s aligned with what you actually want.
    • The truth no one says out loud: not everyone’s meant to be an entrepreneur (and that’s not failure).


    This isn’t about building the biggest business. It’s about building your business. One that actually fits.


    Let’s do this differently!
