  • Philip Jayhawk Chan on the Randy Otterbridge Podcast: Doctor QUITS His Job For Something AMAZING
    May 17 2025

    🚨 Just Dropped: My Conversation with Randy Otterbridge & Robert Heath, Sr. 🎙️

    I had the honor of joining two brilliant minds, Randy Otterbridge and Robert Heath, Sr. on their podcast—and let me tell you, this wasn’t just another guest spot. It was a real, raw, and powerful conversation about entrepreneurship, legacy, and the mindset required to build something that actually lasts.

    We covered a lot of ground:
    ✅ How I went from nearly pursuing surgery to launching Lightspeed Investing
    ✅ Why the vehicle matters more than the destination
    ✅ The power of mentorship—both paid and virtual—in compressing your learning curve
    ✅ How to build multiple parachutes before you make the leap
    ✅ Why many of our clients eventually become leaders on our team
    ✅ And what it means to be a city boy turned Jayhawk 😎

    We also dove into why training is at the heart of everything we do at Lightspeed Investing. It’s how we scale, how we create impact, and how we turn skill sets into six-figure incomes. Whether you’re a professional, a business owner, or just someone tired of building someone else’s dream—there’s a lane here for you.

    And for those wondering, yes, podcasting is one of my favorite platforms. It’s not just content—it’s connection. It lets me show up authentically, build relationships, and create awareness in a way that’s aligned with who I am.

    💡 As Rob reminded me during our chat: “A person can endure almost any ‘how’ if they have a ‘why’ that’s big enough.” That’s the mission. That’s the mindset. That’s Lightspeed.

  • Ep 60: The Mind-Body Code: A Deeper Look at Holistic Health with Peter Faleskini (Part 2)
    May 10 2025

    🎙 Episode 60 – The Mind-Body Code: A Deeper Look at Holistic Health with Peter Faleskini (Part 2)

    Back by demand, Peter Faleskini returns to the Lightspeed Investing Podcast—this time diving deeper into how he’s combining ancient wisdom, modern medicine, and AI to tackle the roots of chronic stress, disease, and burnout.

    Peter isn’t just building health resorts between Switzerland and Italy—he’s building a framework for total human optimization. His team is diagnosing emotional blocks before they become physical illness. Think: stress-induced disease identified years before symptoms show up.

    🎯 We also unpack:
    🌟 How Carl Jung’s teachings shape his psychoanalytic-first method
    🌟 Why most of his clients are high-performing professionals making $300K+ but feeling stuck
    🌟 How AI is accelerating personalized healing diagnostics
    🌟 The real difference between mind-driven versus symptom-driven medicine
    🌟 And why spirituality is part of the deeper conversation (but only if you’re open to it)

    As someone who left medicine to build a firm focused on sustainable wealth and vitality, I find Peter’s work both disruptive and necessary.

    If you're in a high-achieving season of life but feel off-track emotionally or physically—this one's worth a listen.

  • On the Mic with Magnus: Start Trading Like a Master on Making More Money for You!
    May 7 2025

    🎙️ I had the real pleasure of joining Jacob Alinsky, also known as Magnus Carter on his podcast “Making More Money for You!” — and this one’s personal, powerful, and packed with real talk about wealth creation beyond the traditional path.

    We went deep on my journey — from aspiring surgeon to CEO of Lightspeed Investing. From walking away from medicine to building a career in futures and commodities trading, entrepreneurship, and financial education — it’s been a wild ride driven by big dreams and calculated risk.

    Here’s some of what we covered:
    ✅ Why I left the “safe” path of medicine — and never looked back
    ✅ How mentorship reshaped my trajectory
    ✅ The truth about futures & commodities — and why they’re still massively underutilized
    ✅ Why technical analysis is the “x-ray vision” of today’s financial markets
    ✅ How professionals from medicine, IT, real estate, and beyond are creating life-changing income in minutes — not months
    ✅ My long-term goal of owning an NBA team — and the strategy behind it 💼🏀
    ✅ And yes, how you can learn to trade from your phone… even on the beach 🌴

    Whether you're a trader, entrepreneur, investor, or just wondering if the “safe” path is really your path — this conversation will shift how you think about money, freedom, and what’s possible.

  • Ep 59: Building a Winning Portfolio with Kraig Swanson (Part 3)
    May 1 2025

    🚨 Lightspeed Investing Podcast Episode 59 just dropped – and it’s a heater 🔥

    🎧 Part 3 with Kraig Swanson, Founder of Swanson Reserve Capital

    Ever wondered how to build a portfolio like a championship basketball team instead of rolling the dice in Vegas? Kraig walks us through:

    🏀 Level 1: The Team Owner
    Principal-Protected Notes
    You’re not on the court — just focused on stable returns and protection from major losses.
    📈 Target: 10–12% annually

    🏀 Level 2: The Defensive Player
    Income Notes
    You’re playing defense, focused on steady income with more risk and higher potential reward.
    📈 Target: ~17% annually

    🏀 Level 3: The Scorer (aka Kobe Bryant Mode)
    Growth Notes
    You’re on offense, going for the big win with higher risk and the highest reward.
    📈 Target: ~20% annually

    Kraig’s analogy-driven breakdown makes this stuff click—you’ll never think about investing the same way after hearing how Amazon, Tesla, and Kobe Bryant all fit into a structured note strategy. 🧠

    We also talked about:
    ✅ The real role of risk management in wealth building
    ✅ How non-correlation can protect and boost returns
    ✅ The “memory” feature and other built-in defenses
    ✅ Why understanding structured protection is a game-changer in today’s market

  • Ep 57: 17% Fixed Returns with ZERO Fees? | Kraig Swanson on Disrupting Hedge Funds (Part 2)
    Apr 24 2025

    🚨 Episode 57 of the Lightspeed Investing Podcast is LIVE! 🚨

    Part 2 of my conversation with Kraig Swanson, Founder of Swanson Reserve Capital, is here—and we go even deeper into the world of structured notes, alt-credit, and what real innovation looks like in private markets.

    Most people hear hedge fund and think: complexity, fees, exclusivity.
    Kraig flips that script.

    🎯 We cover:
    ✅ Why his boutique alt-credit fund charges zero fees
    ✅ How they’re delivering a fixed 17% annual return—paid quarterly
    ✅ What makes their structured notes strategy different (hint: it's backed by institutions like JPM, Goldman, Citi)
    ✅ How it compares to real estate investing—without the tenants or headaches
    ✅ Why this isn’t just about returns—it’s about resilience

    Plus: 🔍 The difference between T-notes, bonds, and what his fund does differently
    🤝 Why meeting the founder matters when vetting private funds
    📊 The role of machine learning in portfolio construction
    🌍 And how they’re democratizing access usually reserved for billion-dollar family offices

    Kraig isn’t just another voice in the space—he’s in the game, personally invested, and building something worth watching.

    As always—this is not financial advice. Just real conversations with people doing real things in the investing world.

  • Ep 56- Mastering Career Pivots & Fund Management with Kraig Swanson
    Mar 15 2025

    🚀 Lightspeed Investing Podcast Episode 56 - Part 1 with Kraig Swanson 🚀

    I’m thrilled to announce our latest episode of the Lightspeed Investing Podcast featuring none other than Kraig Swanson, an incredible entrepreneur and investment expert. Kraig’s journey from aspiring attorney to navigating the world of finance at Fidelity—managing multi-billion-dollar clients—to now founding Swanson Capital Reserves is nothing short of inspiring.

    In this episode, we dive deep into Kraig’s career pivots, the powerful lessons he learned along the way, and the mindset shifts that helped him transition into fund management.

    🎯 Here are a few key takeaways:

    💡 Embrace Exploration Early: Kraig shares how pivoting between law, sports agency, and finance allowed him to find his true calling in investments.

    💡 Lessons from Fidelity: From handling $100 billion clients to learning the importance of trust, relationships, and delivering value in finance.

    💡 The Power of Mentorship & Networking: How a pivotal conversation with a top fund manager gave Kraig the exact roadmap to launching his own fund.

    💡 Taking the Leap: The moment Kraig knew it was time to leave corporate life and start his own firm—despite the comfort of a stable, high-level role at Fidelity.

    One of my favorite lines from this episode:
    “The only time you should look down on someone is when you’re helping them up.”
