The BetterLife Podcast

What's the point of building a real estate EMPIRE if you lose your family in the process? I've spent years trying to figure out how to build wealth, grow businesses, and achieve financial freedom while still being a good husband and father. And I'll be the first to admit... I'm still figuring it out. In this episode of the BetterLife Podcast, I'm sharing 6 rules that have helpe...

What does it REALLY take to become a millionaire in 2026 and 2027? I sat down with Cam Cathcart, Michael Ketchin, and Geoff Gane to talk about building wealth in today's real estate market. But things got HEATED when Michael challenged Cam on his goal of making $100,000 PER MONTH in cash flow. And honestly? I realized I needed to hear some of the same things. In this episode: Why successful in...

Depending on who you ask, real estate is either falling apart or presenting some of the best buying opportunities we've seen in years. So which is it? I sat down with Cam Cathcart, Ben Humble, and Michael Miller to figure out what's ACTUALLY happening in the real estate market right now. And as usual, we didn't exactly agree on everything. We're talking falling home prices, rising...

Two of the biggest names in real estate just announced they're quitting. Ryan Pineda is shutting down his flipping and wholesaling business. Graham Stephan is selling his Los Angeles rental portfolio. So... do they know something the rest of us don't? I got Cam Cathcart, Ben Humble, and Michael Miller together to talk about what's REALLY happening in real estate right now. And then, in...

Networking sucks. At least, that's what my buddy Omni Casey and I think. But here's the problem... some of the biggest opportunities I've ever had in real estate came from the PEOPLE I knew. Not the properties. Not the money. The relationships. So I brought Omni on the podcast to talk about how to actually build a network of successful investors, mentors, and friends WITHOUT being that...

Real estate has changed. Strategies that felt almost impossible to screw up five years ago are getting investors crushed today... while other corners of the market are quietly producing some incredible opportunities. So Cam, Ben, Michael, and I sat down and asked a simple question: What real estate strategies would we ACTUALLY bet on going into 2026 and 2027? In this episode: 🞄 The real estate str...

Things got a little heated on this one. And the funny part is... this wasn't even supposed to be a podcast. We were hanging out with Ben Humble after last week's episode when Cam started pressing him on his system for finding real estate deals - and the debate took off from there. The conversation was too good NOT to share, so... here's the accidental podcast. In this episode: 🞄 Ben an...

Ben Humble escaped communist Romania as a kid, lived in a refugee camp, moved to Canada, failed math twice, started a cleaning business... and somehow ended up doing hundreds of real estate deals. So yeah, we had a lot to talk about. Ben joins Cam and me for a conversation about his journey into real estate, the lessons he learned after trying just about every strategy in the book, and the framewo...

We're back. After taking the entire summer off, Cam and I finally sat down for another episode of The Better Life Podcast - and a LOT has changed. Cam moved his family back from Maui to Missouri. His flipping business has had one of its roughest years yet. I've had a difficult year in real estate too. So this episode is a pretty honest conversation about what happens when business doesn't keep goi...

Every investor has these. The deal they knew was sketchy, and bought anyway. The one where they ignored the red flags. The one where they just flat out didn't know what they were doing yet. In this episode, Cam Cathcart and I each share our three worst deals. What we paid. What went wrong. What it cost us. And what we'd do differently. Cam took an $80,000 loss on a house where the previous...

I’ve unfortunately committed every single one of these… The bad deal I knew was bad, but bought anyway. The strategy I abandoned three months in because something shinier came along. The numbers I cooked because I didn't want my mentor to tell me I was wrong. In this episode, Cam Cathcart and I go through the 7 Deadly Sins of Real Estate Investing. These are the mistakes that kill portfolios,...

My very first employee had never used a computer. I hired her to be my digital assistant. Day one, I said, "Go to your desktop," and she asked what that was. That was hire number one. It got more complicated from there. I've read a lot about hiring. Talked to a lot of people about it. But mostly I've just done it wrong enough times to figure out what actually works. And in this e...

You built the business. Good. Now get out of the way. This is the final episode of the 7-Figure Business Blueprint series, and it's about the one thing most people skip mentally, even when they're watching it. Because delegation sounds easy until you're the person who thinks nobody else can do it right. The difference between owning a business and being owned by one. The delegation lad...

Most business owners know their revenue. Almost none of them know their actual profit. And that gap? That's how you go broke while feeling busy and successful. In this episode, I'm breaking down the Profit First method that changed how I manage money, why profit has to come out first (not whatever's left over at the end), the simple bank account system that forces financial discipline,...

You built the thing. You validated it. You even have some customers. Now what? Now you have to get in front of people. And this is where most entrepreneurs completely fall apart. You post a few times, hope for word of mouth, and maybe run one ad and give up when it doesn't work. Meanwhile, their competitor, who is half as good, is fully booked because they actually understand marketing. Here&#...

In the last video, you figured out what to build. Now comes the part where most people blow it. They spend four hours building a website. They design a logo. They set up an Instagram account and tell all their friends. They feel like entrepreneurs. But… they haven't talked to a single customer… or made a single dollar. Building a website is cosplay. A logo is cosplay. A business plan is cospla...

Everyone wants a million-dollar business idea. Almost nobody realizes they're tripping over them every single day. That's what Part 2 of the 7-Figure Business Blueprint Series is all about. Choosing WHAT to build. People who never start aren't lacking ideas, but the ability to recognize the ones already in front of them. In this episode, I walk through how to train your brain to spot p...

Last week, I said that married men who aren't financially free and are spending their evenings watching sports and scrolling TikTok while their wives work jobs they hate are being selfish. The internet did not love that. But here's the thing. Plenty of people read it and thought, " He's right”. I want financial freedom. I just don't know how to get there. This series is for th...

I've read somewhere around 300-400 business and self-development books. I highlight them, take notes, and build systems out of them. I'm like a productivity nerd with a real estate habit. But most of those books, while good, didn't actually change what I do on a Monday morning. These three did. In this episode, I break down the exact 3-book stack that took me from grinding 60-hour week...

I never seriously considered assisted living until I sat down with Mitch Conrad. He's a former high school math teacher who built a portfolio of 22 homes and 650 beds, and he basically broke my brain for an hour. The best homes in his portfolio clear $20,000 a month in profit on a single house. You own the real estate and the business at the same time, so you're stacking tax benefits and c...

Everyone keeps saying cash flow is dead. They're right about one thing: the old spot doesn't work anymore. Higher prices, higher rates, and a market that moved on while most investors were still staring at the MLS. But cash flow isn't dead. The light moved. And in this episode, I'm going to show you exactly where it went. Here's what we're getting into: Why traditional buy-...

Most people think flipping houses is simple math. Buy low. Rehab. Sell high. Profit. Here's the truth after 600+ flips: that math is wrong. And it's why most first-time flippers either break even or lose money on deals they thought were home runs. In the next 40 minutes, Cam Cathcart and I are breaking down exactly how to structure a flip that actually hits $50,000 in profit. Here's wh...

Most people think building wealth takes decades of grinding, endless books, and slowly accumulating knowledge. But here's what I learned after becoming a millionaire many times over: The people who actually get rich just acquire the right skills faster. In this episode, I'm breaking down the five specific skills that made me millions. Here's what you're getting: How to use AI as a...

Many people spend 40+ years grinding toward retirement… then they die six months before they get there. I know that sounds harsh. But I watched it happen to someone close to me, and it completely changed how I think about money, time, and freedom. The truth is, you don't need to be rich at 72. You need to be free while your kids still want to hang out with you. While you still have energy. Whi...

I brought an AI expert to Maui last week who's raised over $117 million using AI. And he thinks all the scientists screaming about AI doom are missing the point entirely. Joe Stolte joined Cam and me to answer the question I've been losing sleep over: Are we all dead because of AI? Here's what's wild: the people screaming the loudest about AI destroying humanity? They've never...
