What if capitalism could work for people instead of against them? 💡

In this episode of The Necessary Entrepreneur, host Mark Perkins sits down with Morgan Styler, veteran entrepreneur and co-founder of Circular Wealth, to explore a bold new model he calls "capitalism with compassion."

After decades in direct sales and network marketing, including co-founding companies with over $2 billion in revenue, Morgan became determined to build a system where everyone shares in the success they help create.

Morgan explains how Circular Wealth uses regenerative economics to reward human connection over clicks, giving affiliates real ownership, profit sharing, and equity. He also reveals how his team is flipping the traditional sales pyramid on its head, creating a transparent, collaborative business model where money flows like energy through an ecosystem rather than pooling at the top.

From lessons learned running billion-dollar organizations to his vision for a fairer, more sustainable economy, this conversation challenges what we think we know about wealth, equity, and entrepreneurship.

🎙️ Topics Covered:

• The flaws in traditional network marketing and sales models

• How to design capitalism with compassion

• Turning $5 trillion in customer acquisition costs into community wealth

• Why transparency, incentives, and shared equity matter

• Building trust and collaboration through profit sharing

If you've ever wondered what a regenerative economy could look like, or how entrepreneurs can help fix what's broken in today's systems, this episode will expand your thinking.
