    221: 8-Figure Founder Shares Secret to Making More & Working Less with Jonathan Goodman

    Most entrepreneurs believe growth requires sacrificing everything else. Jonathan Goodman proves you can scale a business without giving up your freedom.

    He’s built multiple companies, written 12 books (including The Obvious Choice), and scaled coaching businesses to 7-figures—all while spending half the year living abroad with his family.

    How? By mastering the art of incentives, knowing when to not scale, and investing in cash-flowing assets that work harder than he does.

    In today’s episode, we break down the wealth-building strategies Jonathan used to scale a business to $35M+ in revenue.

    We explore why most investments fail to beat the returns generated by a well-run business, a leveraged personal brand, or an asymmetric bet like Bitcoin.

    Jonathan also shares how he structures his businesses to maximize freedom and avoid the common pitfalls of scaling.

    If you’re looking for a playbook on building wealth, designing a business that doesn’t take over your life, and making sure your money works for you—not the other way around—this episode has the answers.


    In this episode, you’ll learn:


    ✅ Jonathan’s “whales and minnows” framework for eliminating 80% of your workload—why most entrepreneurs waste time on tasks that don’t move the needle, and how Jonathan ensures every hour works for him.

    ✅ The “eight-four rule” of seasonal living—how Jonathan avoids burnout and stays at peak performance by alternating between intense work sprints and extended time off.

    ✅ How to design scalable compensation systems that turn employees into partners—the secret to building a team that’s as invested in success as you are, without micromanaging.

    220: The Tax Expert Who’s Saved Real Estate Investors $2.3B with Wes Mabry

    Ever feel like the tax system is stacked against you? In this episode, I’m talking with cost segregation expert Wes Mabry to uncover one of the most underutilized and powerful tax strategies available to real estate investors – a proven method to accelerate depreciation, defer taxes, and increase cash flow.

    Wes is the Founder of 1245 Consulting and one of the country’s leading authorities on cost segregation. For over 17 years, Wes and his team have helped investors—from small-time landlords to ultra-high-net-worth individuals—save over $2 billion in taxes.

    In our conversation, Wes breaks down cost segregation step-by-step: what it is, how it works, why it’s so powerful, and the types of properties that benefit the most. He shares insights on everything from accelerating depreciation on assets like flooring and gas lines to why car washes and mobile home parks offer some of the best opportunities.

    You’ll also learn about bonus depreciation, strategies to handle recapture taxes, and smart moves like retroactive studies and 1031 exchanges.


    In this episode, you’ll learn:


    ✅ How cost segregation accelerates depreciation by breaking down property components like landscaping, gas lines, and specialized flooring—helping you offset income without cutting into cash flow.

    ✅ Why asset classes like car washes and mobile home parks are tax goldmines, offering bigger savings than options like condos, self-storage or warehouses.

    ✅ How retroactive cost segregation can help you reclaim missed tax benefits and significantly reduce your taxable income.
