Think more money means more happiness? Think again.
In this episode, I go all in on one of the most misunderstood ideas out there — that success, fame, or financial wins automatically lead to fulfillment. Spoiler alert: they don’t.
Whether you're on the come-up or already living with some wins, this episode will challenge how you define “success.” I talk about keeping life simple, the emotional toll of chasing more, and how gratitude and perspective are the real ROI.
If you've ever felt overwhelmed by the pressure to keep climbing — or you're scared of what happens if you lose what you’ve built — this one's for you.
We talk about:
💡 Why keeping it simple beats chasing clout
🧠 How happiness before the money is the real secret
💸 Why “more” doesn’t mean “better”
🫂 What really matters when life gets real
🎯 Why losing something is scarier than never having it
💬 The danger of defining happiness through other people’s lenses
This is one of those episodes I want every young entrepreneur, creator, and dreamer to hear. If you’re in your head about money, status, or pressure from the outside world… take a breath and press play.
I gave this keynote at the NAC Success Resources event in 2019 — and I went deep on the real shit that holds people back. It’s not lack of resources. It’s not bad luck. It’s entitlement, insecurity, and the need to impress others instead of doing what actually makes you happy.
If you’ve ever felt like you’re stuck or not moving fast enough, this episode is a wake-up call. I break down the 5 core pieces of value that I believe will unlock your path to success — and most of them have nothing to do with business tactics and everything to do with mindset.
Whether you’re just starting or scaling, this talk will push you to get brutally honest with yourself and start executing.
👇 We talk about:
Why accountability is the gateway to happiness
How entitlement is sabotaging your growth
What I learned from immigrants about money
The illusion of success on social media
Building businesses around what you love
Why you need to stop buying dumb sh*t 💳
Crushing it on LinkedIn and Instagram with $0
Why losing early builds you up later
The real ROI of patience and long-term execution
🧠 This isn’t just motivation — this is a blueprint. Let’s go.
