From decoding food labels to landing shelf space at Whole Foods, she shares the unglamorous, unfiltered side of entrepreneurship.

Erica reveals how grit, gratitude, and grassroots hustle helped TRUBAR break through a saturated market?and why staying composed in the face of rejection has become one of her greatest strengths as a founder.

?College-football playbooks weren?t half as tough as the leadership drills Marc Nudelberg just put me through.?

Former Division-I coach-turned-performance strategist Marc Nudelberg sat across from me and proved that the grit it takes to build championship teams on Saturday is the exact same grit businesses need at 7 a.m. Monday.  From becoming the NCAA?s youngest coordinator at 26, to re-engineering sales cultures with his firm On The Ball, Marc has turned the locker-room 1% rule, get a little better every day, into a bottom-line growth engine that works long after the stadium lights go out.

Marc explains why discipline beats talent once you hit the pros, how to reverse-engineer giant goals into today?s non-negotiable behaviors, and the boundary system he uses to protect his three priorities: self-care, family, and the business.

? In this episode, we dive into:

? The real 1% rule: translating Tuesday?s invisible reps into Saturday?s visible wins

? Preparation ? Personalization ? Persistence: Marc?s 3-P framework for recession-proof business development

? Warren Buffett?s 5/25 filter, and why your to-do list probably needs a shredder

? Failure as fuel: what getting fired taught Marc about owning outcomes he didn?t cause

? Time blocking like a coach: turning 20 NCAA hours into a masterclass on modern time management

Marc also shares the mindset hack that detaches action from emotion (?Feel tired, run anyway?), reveals how to turn no-pay grunt work into career-defining opportunities, and reminds every leader that caring enough to tell the hard truth is still the ultimate competitive advantage.

What does relentless leadership really look like?This week, I sat down with leadership expert Adrian Koehler to unpack the mindset to lean on when business gets brutal ? and it?s not just grit. It?s the ability to keep going when the numbers don?t add up, the pressure?s insane, and every exit looks tempting.

We break down what it means to lead with both toughness and heart, why failure shouldn?t scare you, and how spirituality helps make high-stakes decisions without losing people in the process.

?In this conversation we cover:? Why relentlessness isn?t about force ? it?s about refusing to give up on your mission or your people
? How to take the hit, own the mistake, and still build loyalty
? Why idealism will burn you out (and what to believe in instead)
? The mindset for staying calm under chaos: ?The tightrope is only two feet off the ground?

We also get into why courage is less about taking the hill and more about telling the truth, even when it?s hard ? and why showing grace (to yourself and your team) might just be the most powerful leadership skill there is.

My producer, and good friend, Dave Aizer slid into the host seat this week and grilled me about the one edge that never goes out of style: running a company with rock-solid ethics.I walk through how we grew YMP Real Estate from a single duplex to $1.5 billion in assets while raising 11 kids, why I?ve turned down seven-figure paydays that didn?t feel right, and how over-communicating lets me sleep soundly even on the craziest days.

? The Triple Filter: honesty, competency, and time all must be green before I say ?go?

? Contrarian real-estate moves: buy when rates scare everyone else, hold for 10 years, refinance tax-free

Are our children truly safe?

In this episode, I sit down with Amanda Altman, CEO of Kristi House in Miami-Dade County, to talk about the alarming rise in child abuse and human trafficking?and what we can do to stop it.

Amanda pulls back the curtain on the harsh realities of child sexual abuse, human trafficking, and the $150 billion industry targeting vulnerable children. She shares staggering statistics?like how 1 in 4 girls and 1 in 6 boys will be sexually assaulted before they turn 18?and explains why prevention education, community involvement, and parental awareness are more critical than ever, especially with the rise of online exploitation.

Kristi House provides comprehensive, long-term support for survivors through trauma therapy, advocacy, and healing-centered care, while confronting the shortcomings of the current legal and law enforcement systems.

Colby Harris is a Gen Z trailblazer who?s obsessed with health, wealth, and leadership. He launched a pressure washing business at 17, cycled 100 miles in one day to raise money for under-served kids, works in private equity, and is about to start his own company. 

But during Colby?s journey, he was once so broke that he had to put gas in his car with quarters, and he even lost 30 pounds because he couldn?t afford to eat. 

Here?s his inspiring story of grit, resilience, and relentless optimism. And the mindset it takes to go from rock bottom to being a top 1% earner in your field.
