Intro

After building 8 rental properties across 3 states, I thought I had it all figured out—until life hit hard. Three kids in under three years, skyrocketing childcare costs, and a complete identity crisis forced me to question everything. In this raw and honest episode, I sit down with Luke Gilbert to unpack how fatherhood, finances, and personal growth led me to walk away from “safe” rentals and go all-in on a $9M residential assisted living project.

We talk rebranding, risk, W2 jobs vs. freedom, and why “stuck” is a choice.

Whether you’re an investor, parent, or just someone at a crossroads—this one’s for you.
