About this listen

In this episode, we sit down with Wale Lawal, a Nigerian-born entrepreneur whose investor mindset was shaped long before he entered real estate.


Wale shares how a cultural philosophy — never using both hands to eat — influenced the way he approaches money, risk, and opportunity. That mindset led him through multiple ventures, including transportation, crypto, and forex trading. While not all of them succeeded, each experience taught him valuable lessons about resilience and growth.


His turning point came during the purchase of his first home, where communication gaps and unmet expectations pushed him to become the solution. Determined to serve others better, Wale earned his real estate license and began giving back to the community that once helped him.


Today, he’s known as a fierce yet fair negotiator—focused on creating win-win outcomes for buyers and sellers alike. This episode is a powerful reminder that setbacks don’t define you— your mindset does.
