#3437: Do Companies Exploit Their Employees? [Part 2 of 2]
We’re back with part two of “Do Companies Exploit Their Employees?” In this one, I explain why your problem isn’t exploitation — it’s lack of leverage. When you have no leverage, you get controlled. When you build leverage, no one can exploit you. I talk about what leverage really means, how to create it, and how to make yourself unexploitable by changing your mindset, your actions, and the way you show up in business.
Show Notes:
[01:01]#4 Do workers matter? Yes, they do.
[08:07]#5 To remove the cap on your upside, you got to remove your downside.
[12:54]#6 Your problem is you lack leverage.

#3436: Do Companies Exploit Their Employees? [Part 1 of 2]
Are companies really exploiting their employees? That’s what I’m breaking down in this episode. A lot of people are quick to blame the rich, business owners, or “the system” for why they don’t have what they want, but that frame leaves out one key thing: personal responsibility. I talk about how this mindset became popular, why it’s so convincing, and why I don’t buy into it.
Let’s dig into the real reason some people stay stuck while others rise.
Show Notes:
[05:18]#1 Hell no.
[10:35]#2 Entrepreneurs are the one who took the fucking risk.
[14:46]#3 If you take no risk, you get no reward.

#3435: Strategies Vs Systems [They're NOT The Same Thing]
Most people mix up strategies and systems, and that’s why they stay stuck. A strategy is your plan of action; it tells you what to do. A system is what helps you do it consistently without burning out. You need both if you want long-term success. In this episode, I break down the difference and show you how to make them work together so your results don’t depend on how you feel that day.
Show Notes:
[02:57]#1 Strategies are what we aim to do.
[08:21]#2 Systems are about how you do things.
[22:09]#3 Clear strategies make for easier systems.
[27:55]#Recap

#3434: Why I Brought My #DailyMotivation Texts BACK
I brought back my Daily Motivation text messages, and yes, they’re officially live again. A few years ago, I stopped them while deciding if I’d keep that line or shut it down, but now they’re back and better. Every morning, I send a quick message straight to your phone to help you lock in mentally and start the day right. You’ll also get my Monday Motivation to kick off your week with purpose. If you haven’t joined yet, text me at 305-384-6894 — I actually reply to my texts, so you’ll hear from me directly.
Show Notes:
[02:32]#1 Relationships are the key.
[09:39]#2 You have to figure out your costs.
[15:12]#3 I like the chances of making things work better now.

This is part three of my Escape the Matrix series, and we’re closing it out strong. In this episode, I’m breaking down three more traps that keep you plugged in: the feminization of men, false freedom, and the pharmaceutical industry.

Listen in so you can see these traps for what they are and start taking your power back.
Show Notes:
[01:05]#7 The ongoing feminization of men.
[09:03]#8 The idea of false freedom.
[13:40]#9 The pharmaceutical industry is part of the matrix.

#3432: How To "Escape The Matrix" [Part 2 of 3]
We’re back with part two of my three-part series on how to Escape the Matrix. In this episode, I’m breaking down three more traps that keep you plugged in: social media, the financial system, and the celebrity world. I explain why you should treat social media like a tool — not a place to build your life — and why you must learn about money outside of school if you want to stop being kept in the dark. I also talk about how celebrity culture is designed to keep you distracted from living your own life.
Listen in so you can start unplugging and building your own Matrix.
Show Notes:
[01:07]#4 Social media is a hoe, not a housewife.
[07:38]#5 The financial system.
[17:07]#6 Celebrities and entertainment.

Episodes Mentioned:

#3431: How To "Escape The Matrix" [Part 1 of 3]
You’ve heard the red pill, blue pill idea from the movie — blue pill means keep living how you live, red pill means you wake up and see the truth, even if it’s uncomfortable. Today I’m breaking down what the Matrix really is in everyday life in sports, school, government, relationships — and why most people stay inside it.
If you’re ready to stop blinding yourself to what’s real, this episode is about taking that red pill and seeing things for what they are.
Show Notes:
[03:28]#1 Use mainstream media sparingly and as entertainment, never as the main course.
[09:04]#2 Depend on and trust the government for absolutely nothing.
[16:03]#3 Be wary of the educational system.

#3430: Moonshot Thinking And Why You Need It
Most people spend their lives chasing small problems and getting small rewards. That’s like a lion hunting mice — the effort isn’t worth the payoff.
In this episode, I’m talking about moonshot thinking and why you need it. Moonshot thinking is about aiming at bigger targets, giving yourself the chance to win big, even if it’s harder. This is about possibility, stretching yourself, and asking the kind of questions that can change your whole situation.
Show Notes:
[05:08]#1 Moonshot is about what is one thing you could do or start working on that would change the entire trajectory of your situation.
[10:44]#2 Why do you need this?
[13:14]#3 Why do most people never do this?

#3429: Batching: The Value Of It, And How To Start
In this episode, I’m breaking down batching — what it is, why it matters, and how you can start doing it. Batching simply means grouping tasks and knocking them out all at once instead of spreading them out day by day.
I’ll share how I use batching to stay 50 episodes ahead on this show, and how you can use it for things like content, emails, or any repeat task in your life. Not everything can be batched, but the things that can will save you time, energy, and stress.
Show Notes:
[05:48]#1 You want to do things in bulk, all at once.
[08:44]#2 The value of batching and doing it all at once is that mentally you're already focused on doing that thing.
[18:23]#3 Pick one thing and block off time to batch that thing.

#3428: The Scary Future About AI
For some of you, it’ll be a problem if you move too slow or sit around doing nothing. But for others, it’ll be a huge opportunity. In this episode, I’m talking about the scary future of AI. I’ll break down what’s really happening with AI, how it’s already in your life even if you don’t notice it, and what you need to do so this future works for you instead of against you.
Show Notes:
[02:43]#1 Most people don't think, don't read, and they're lazy.
[07:40]#2 AI is making it easier for people to be this type of person - who does not think, does not read and they're lazy.
[13:44]#3 The big future opportunity of AI is being a person who thinks, reads and gives effort.
