      <title>Building an Empire: Pathways to Financial Freedom with Jason and Nayeli Sharp</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><strong>“You have to take risks if you want to do big things.”  - Nayeli Sharp</strong></p><p><strong>“How can I figure out, every way to make money while we sleep.” - Jason Sharp</strong></p><p><br /><br /><strong>Episode Summary:</strong></p><p>In this power-packed episode of Strive for 25, Joel sits down with Jason and Nayeli Sharp who have managed to build a remarkable empire, commencing from a place of financial uncertainty. Jason's journey from a challenging background to being part of the National Guard, while simultaneously investing in rental properties is vividly shared. Nayeli, a nephrologist and real estate developer, joins their journey in creating a cigar brand, 'Sherri’s', to gain autonomy from the corporate world. Channeling their efforts towards physical investments like real estate, they share their focus on passive income generation and future financial security. The couple stresses the importance of communication, risk-taking, hard work, resilience, and a clear vision on the entrepreneurial road. Their book, 'Eyes Wide Open', reflects on the same spirit, encapsulating Jason's life lessons in overcoming adversity. They further emphasize the crucial role of social-emotional learning for raising adaptable, critical thinkers in the fast-paced technological society.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p><strong>About Jason Sharp:</strong></p><p> Long ago I had my first cigar at the ripe old age of 18. I realized that there was something truly unique about cigars. I knew I was passionate about them. I loved the aroma, the flavor, and the sense of relaxation that came with smoking a fine cigar. After years of smoking and collecting cigars, I decided to start my own cigar business. I traveled the world with my wife visiting tobacco farms and factories to learn the art of cigar making. I met with experts and studied the industry inside and out. Finally, I felt I had enough resources to start my own cigar lounge. Thus the idea of Sherri's Executive Lounge was conceived. This name was chosen to Honor my mom who had passed recently. My goal with Sherri's Executive Lounge Is to provide a world-class experience for cigar enthusiasts, business professionals, and anyone seeking a refined space to unwind and connect, and I can't wait to have you come in and enjoy this truly unique space.</p><p><br /> </p><p><strong>In this episode:</strong></p><ul><li>The importance of building wealth to have more time.</li><li>Making money in your sleep to have more freedom and time for the things you love.</li><li>Diversifying income streams.</li><li>The healing power of writing a book.</li><li>The challenges and rewards of entrepreneurship.</li><li>Once you’ve bought your first house, how do you get to the next step.</li><li>Opening a brick-and-mortar business.</li><li>The importance of collaboration and partnerships.</li><li>Living your life with eyes wide open.</li><li>The cost of starting a business.</li><li>Sacrificing now, to grow your future life.</li><li>Learning to suffer, and looking for a way forward.</li><li>Balancing business and family life.</li><li>The value of time management.</li><li>The concept of generational wealth and building an empire.</li><li>Knowing when to take risks.</li></ul><p><br /> </p><p><strong>Key Takeaways:</strong></p><ul><li>Making intentional choices to grow your life.</li><li>Understand and communicate what risks you are able and willing to take.</li><li>You have to be willing to take risks to grow.</li><li>Getting comfortable with being uncomfortable while you build the life you want.</li><li>You are in control of your life.</li></ul><p> </p><p>Are you ready to take charge of your financial freedom?</p><p>Check out Joel’s new course! <a href="https://joel-farrell-be35.mykajabi.com/offers/yLCu5bFC/checkout">https://joel-farrell-be35.mykajabi.com/offers/yLCu5bFC/checkout</a></p><p><br /> </p><p><strong>Connect with Jason and Nayeli:</strong></p><ul><li><a href="https://www.sherrislounge.com/">HOME | Sherris Lounge</a></li><li><a href="https://www.facebook.com/SherrisLounge">(20+) Facebook</a></li><li><a href="https://www.instagram.com/sherrislounge/">Sherris Executive Lounge (@sherrislounge) • Instagram photos and videos</a></li><li><a href="https://www.learntosuffer.com/">HOME | Learn To Suffer</a></li></ul><p> </p><p><strong> Connect with Joel Farrell:</strong></p><ul><li><a href="https://www.strivefor25.com/">https://www.strivefor25.com/</a></li><li><a href="http://joel@strivefor25">joel@strivefor25</a></li><li><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/joelfarrellvaloans/">https://www.linkedin.com/in/joelfarrellvaloans/</a></li><li><a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCISoNioAVR083iLErviv6pQ/featured">https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCISoNioAVR083iLErviv6pQ/featured</a></li><li><a href="https://www.instagram.com/strivefor25_/">https://www.instagram.com/strivefor25_/</a></li></ul><p><br /> </p><p>Audio and show notes by</p><p><a href="http://premierpodcastpromotions.com/"> Premier Podcast Promotions</a></p>

Currently, Capital Gains are 23.8% on any profit. There is passed legislation to raise this to 40% for some tax levels. The IRS is hiring 87,000 new agents.

      <title>Dare to Do: Taking Action and Embracing Continuous Learning with Deven Wohlwend</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><strong>"When is the best time to plant a tree? 20 years ago."  - a Chinese Proverb</strong></p><p><br /><strong>Episode Summary:</strong></p><p>In this special episode of the Strive for 25 podcast, Joel interviews Deven Wohlwend, the 16-year-old COO of Clear Sky Realty Inc., Amazon's best-selling author, and owner of over 40 units. Deven shares his remarkable journey, starting from attending investment meetings since birth to becoming the youngest person to attain the Ohio Professional Housing Provider Certification at the age of 10. </p><p>Deven's story serves as an inspiring example of youthful entrepreneurship and the impact of determination, creativity, and continuous learning in achieving success in real estate and beyond.</p><p>Tune in to hear how Deven started his role as a COO and his insights on being an inspiration to others by setting an example. Deven emphasizes the importance of starting early, being creative, taking action, and focusing on the future rather than getting stuck in the present.</p><p><br /> </p><p><strong>About Deven Wohlwend:</strong></p><p>From the time he was born, Deven has been going to investment meetings. He developed an interest in investing at a very early age. He found a way to invest in what he knew when he was only 5 years old. By the time he was 7, he started a company and started purchasing real estate. He purchased his first house using only his knowledge, creativity, and a little bit of money that he had earned at his part-time job. By the time he was 10 years old, he attained his Ohio Professional Housing Provider Certification (O.P.H.P.). This made him the youngest person ever to attain this certification. He started investing in single-family homes. Then, he rapidly moved on to a small, multi-family (duplex.) Within 3 years, he had bought 20% of a 60-unit complex. He is constantly growing his real estate team and acquiring more assets. At 11 years old, he published his first book about his successes and setbacks: If I Can Do It, So Can You! How I Started Buying Real Estate at Age 7! By age 12 he started taking classes at Kent State University. Recently he published his second book, The Garage with Mark Victor Hansen.

He developed an interest in investing at a very early age. He found a way to invest in what he knew when he was only 5 years old. By the time he was 7, he started a company and started purchasing real estate. He purchased his first house using only his knowledge, creativity, and a little bit of money that he had earned at his part-time job. By the time he was 10 years old, he attained his Ohio Professional Housing Provider Certification (O.P.H.P.). This made him the youngest person ever to attain this certification. He started investing in single-family homes. Then, he rapidly moved on to a small, multi-family (duplex.) Within 3 years, he had bought 20% of a 60-unit complex. He is constantly growing his real estate team and acquiring more assets. At 11 years old, he published his first book about his successes and setbacks: If I Can Do It, So Can You! How I Started Buying Real Estate at Age 7! By age 12 he started taking classes at Kent State University. Recently he published his second book, The Garage with Mark Victor Hansen. He became the #1 best-selling author on Amazon in Children’s Money Books on the 2nd day it was available. He has since been interviewed on Larry Goins Podcast and spoken, in person, to various real estate investment, business & homeschooling groups across half a dozen states. He has been on expert panels from Florida to Ohio, including at the National Real Estate Summit. He continues to buy more properties and currently controls over 40 units.

Upon joining the Southwestern Coaching team, he became the number one producing first-year coach of all-time and had the top revenue collected in the company during that same year. In 2017, David received the Extrallence Award, the most prestigious and coveted award given at Southwestern Consulting. </p><p>Beyond his successful career with Southwestern Consulting, David is a guest lecturer at his alma mater, Purdue University. He has also explored and lived in emerging markets throughout Asia, Europe, Africa, and the Middle East, working on large-scale government initiatives aimed at providing skills development and training to local professionals. Through these experiences, David has learned not only how to influence executive-level decision-makers across linguistic and cultural barriers, but he has grown to understand and appreciate these barriers that so often divide us. To date, David has traveled to 43 different countries and holds a limited working proficiency in Arabic and Thai. </p><p>Though he is comfortable calling anywhere in the world home, David currently lives in Indianapolis with his amazing and supportive wife, Leyla, and their two children, Aeron and Gisele.

      <title>Building a Culture of Empathy with Kyle McDowell</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><strong> “We are in an environment where everyone's opinion matters, as long as it has data or experience behind it.” - Kyle McDowell</strong></p><p><br /><strong>Episode Summary:</strong></p><p>Begin with WE!</p><p>Kyle McDowell joins SF25 to discuss a new type of leadership and team building focused on 10 principles. Understand how Kyle is making a difference in lives worldwide and how you can apply these principles today.</p><p> </p><p><strong>About Kyle McDowell:</strong></p><p>Kyle McDowell is a USA Today and WSJ bestselling author, speaker, and leadership expert.  </p><p>For nearly three decades, McDowell has amassed an impressive track record of delivering great business results while leading tens of thousands of employees at some of America’s largest corporations, including United Health  Group, CVS Health, and Bank of America. </p><p>However in spite of those results, McDowell found himself unfilled and apathetic toward the environments he actually helped to create.  </p><p>He knew there had to be a better way.  </p><p>If he was going to make a lasting difference, McDowell knew he needed to lead differently. He wanted to be the leader he never had. He knew people shouldn’t come to work with fear in their hearts.  </p><p>He turned his back on the big paycheck and golden handcuffs to launch Kyle McDowell Inc., a global leadership and cultural transformation firm committed to developing authentic and courageous leaders who have a passion for cultivating a better, WE-oriented, work life. </p><p>With this realization, he crafted his guiding principles for life and leadership, THE 10 WEs.  </p><p>1. WE do the right thing. Always. </p><p>2. WE lead by example. </p><p>3. WE say what WE’re going to do. Then WE do it.  </p><p>4. WE take action. </p><p>5. WE own our mistakes. </p><p>6. WE pick each other up. </p><p>7. WE measure ourselves by outcomes. Not activity. </p><p>8. WE challenge each other. </p><p>9. WE embrace challenge. </p><p>10. WE obsess over details. </p><p>These ten principles would go on to be McDowell’s code of behavior, first for himself, and then for those he led. No difference – no leadership gap. It was how strongly the principles resonated from the new intern to the tenured Sr.  Executive – from tiny cubicle to corner office which compelled McDowell to think bigger.  </p><p>“With my whole heart, I suddenly realized this is my purpose on this planet. To develop caring leaders who want to leave a legacy that lasts well beyond their tenure with any organization. I’m on a mission to rid corporate America of  the toxic traits so many of us of witnessed and even endorsed at times.” </p><p>The mission included writing his first book, the Wall Street Journal, and USA Today bestseller, Begin With WE: 10  Principles for Building and Sustaining a Culture of Excellence.  </p><p>Today McDowell is regularly invited to speak at business, educational, and nonprofit institutions and events, and has been featured in major national publications, such as The Wall Street Journal, Forbes, and Inc. Magazine.  </p><p>McDowell holds a bachelor’s degree from the University of South Florida and an MBA from Northwestern University’s  Kellogg School of Management. He lives in Tampa, Florida.</p><p><br /> </p><p><strong>In this episode:</strong></p><ul><li>the lack of apathy in business</li><li>having an eagerness to make a difference</li><li>the problem with corporate leadership</li><li>investing in your dreams</li><li>being "we" oriented</li><li>focusing on group success</li><li>investing in your team</li><li>leading by example</li><li>creating a culture of excellence and comfort</li><li>building a thought-rich environment</li><li>being emotionally connected to the people you work with, not the business numbers</li></ul><p><br /> </p><p><strong>Key Takeaways:</strong></p><ul><li>A leader must have a set of principles they follow.</li><li>Obsess over outcomes, not activity.</li><li>Embrace the RIGHT challenges for growth.</li><li>Candor enables "can do".</li><li>Help  your team for THEIR benefit, not yours.</li><li>Anything in life worth having, is hard to get.</li><li>Leadership is a lifestyle.</li><li>Don't let anyone pay you to forget your dreams, or forget who you are.</li></ul><p><br /> </p><p><strong>Connect with Kyle McDowell:</strong></p><ul><li><a href="https://www.instagram.com/kylemcdowellinc/" target="_blank">https://www.instagram.com/kylemcdowellinc/</a></li><li><a href="https://linktr.ee/kylemcdowellinc" target="_blank">https://linktr.ee/kylemcdowellinc</a></li><li>Buy Kyle's book Begin with WE: <a href="https://a.co/d/iXT8b8l" target="_blank">https://a.co/d/iXT8b8l</a></li></ul><p><br /> </p><p> </p><p><strong>  Connect with Joel Farrell:</strong></p><ul><li><a href="http://www.joelfarrellloans.com/">www.joelfarrellloans.com </a></li><li>joel.farrell@fairwaymc.com</li><li><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/joelfarrellvaloans/">https://www.linkedin.com/in/joelfarrellvaloans/</a></li><li><a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCISoNioAVR083iLErviv6pQ/featured">https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCISoNioAVR083iLErviv6pQ/featured</a></li><li><a href="https://www.instagram.com/strivefor25_/">https://www.instagram.com/strivefor25_/</a></li><li><a href="https://www.instagram.com/jomifa8301/?hl=en">https://www.instagram.com/jomifa8301/?hl=en</a></li></ul><p><br /> </p><p><br /> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>Audio and show notes by<a href="http://premierpodcastpromotions.com/"> Premier Podcast Promotions</a></p>

      <title>Creating a Revolutionary Real Estate Tool with Donato Callahan</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><strong>“There is no limit on what people can choose to do.” - Donato Callahan</strong></p><p> </p><p><strong>Episode Summary:</strong></p><p>Donato and his partner Drew McCluskey are launching a revolutionary real estate tool you MUST know about! If you're a realtor, investor, entrepreneur, or someone looking to get started, tune in and learn about BrightInvestor - a platform that helps people invest anywhere with confidence by making real estate market research simple!</p><p><br /> </p><p><strong>About Donato Callahan:</strong></p><p>Donato grew up in Bettendorf, Iowa where he graduated as high-school Valedictorian before attending Boise State University for Biology where he was one of three biology majors in the country awarded the prestigious Department of Defense (DoD) SMART Scholarship. This led to internships in Washington, D.C. and the time freedom to spend a field semester in western Montana and volunteer for a month on a South African wildlife reserve. After returning to the states, he founded a real estate wholesaling company before quickly transitioning to bigger projects; including purchasing a four family house-hack in St. Louis and helping to establish a commercial multifamily syndication company with over 172 units and $15M in acquisitions in their first 18 months. Not to leave opportunity on the table, Donato connected with his now co-founder Drew McCluskey to create BrightInvestor - a platform that helps people invest anywhere with confidence by making real estate market research simple. Today, Donato works full time for the Department of Defense while continuing to syndicate large apartment complexes and leading BrightInvestor to its late March 2023 launch date. </p><p> </p><p><strong>In this episode:</strong></p><ul><li>The diversity of real estate</li><li>Understanding risk vs. reward.</li><li>House hacking with a team.</li><li>The importance of research and comparing data when getting into real estate.</li><li>What is BrightInvestor?</li><li>The struggles of knowing when and where to invest.</li><li>The golden rule of real estate.</li><li>Cutting down research time using the right resources and tools.</li><li>How BrightInvestor will help people make informed investment and purchasing decisions with ease.</li><li>Getting the compare and contrast information and data you need all in once place.</li></ul><p> </p><p> </p><p><strong>Key Takeaways:</strong></p><ul><li>School is your life tool, use that tool to build whatever life you want.</li><li>Only YOU can build the life you want.</li><li>Don't let your age define your success or your goals.</li><li>Buying real estate isn't just buying a house, it's buying everything around it too.</li><li>What you want MOST is more important than what  you want right now.</li></ul><p><br /> </p><p> </p><p><strong>Connect with Donato Callahan:</strong></p><ul><li><a href="https://www.instagram.com/donato_callahan/" target="_blank">https://www.instagram.com/donato_callahan/</a></li><li><a href="https://twitter.com/DonCallahanRE" target="_blank">https://twitter.com/DonCallahanRE</a></li><li><a href="https://www.facebook.com/anthony.callahan.796" target="_blank">https://www.facebook.com/anthony.callahan.796</a></li><li>LinkTree: <a href="https://linktr.ee/donatocallahan?utm_source=linktree_profile_share&ltsid=669618e2-a058-4a0b-929d-501846947f25" target="_blank">https://linktr.ee/donatocallahan?utm_source=linktree_profile_share<sid=669618e2-a058-4a0b-929d-501846947f25</a></li></ul><p><br /> </p><p> </p><p><strong>Connect with Joel Farrell:</strong></p><ul><li><a href="http://www.joelfarrellloans.com/">www.joelfarrellloans.com </a></li><li>joel.farrell@fairwaymc.com</li><li><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/joelfarrellvaloans/">https://www.linkedin.com/in/joelfarrellvaloans/</a></li><li><a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCISoNioAVR083iLErviv6pQ/featured">https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCISoNioAVR083iLErviv6pQ/featured</a></li><li><a href="https://www.instagram.com/strivefor25_/">https://www.instagram.com/strivefor25_/</a></li><li><a href="https://www.instagram.com/jomifa8301/?hl=en">https://www.instagram.com/jomifa8301/?hl=en</a></li></ul><p><br /> </p><p><br /> </p><p> </p><p>Audio and show notes by<a href="http://premierpodcastpromotions.com/"> Premier Podcast Promotions</a></p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p><strong>"I try to beat the 1% no matter what." - Ryan Gray</strong></p><p> </p><p><strong>Episode Summary:</strong></p><p>Ryan Gray and his wife bought their first home at the age of 18! As Ryan's passion in real estate grew, he moved on to starting his own company, Stable Living LLP, which provides Adult Family Homes and community supported living for disabled individuals. Discover the care and opportunities behind group homes in today's episode.<br /> </p><p> </p><p><strong>About Ryan Gray:</strong></p><p>Ryan got out of the US National Guard and shortly after in 2017, he opened an assisted living business called Stable Living LLP, which provides adult-family homes and community-supported living for disabled individuals. His company has grown from one adult-family Home in 2017 to 7 adult-family homes. Ryan’s company also provides in-home care for upwards of 50 clients that live on their own. He currently employs over 45 staff, and they are focused on how to change their clients' lives for the better every day.</p><p>Ryan’s business got him interested in real estate. In 2018, he started to buy rental properties and attend a local real estate meet-up. Since then, Ryan has been obsessed with educating himself in real estate and finding off-market properties through mailers, cold-calling, and other avenues. He is currently wholesaling properties to other investors, and flipping properties, but his preferred method is to buy and hold long-term rentals.</p><p>Ryan currently owns 156 rental units outside of Stable Living LLP. His goal is to buy 1000 rental units by 2030 and continue to self-manage his properties as they grow. Ryan is happily married to his wife Eva Gray and has an 8-month-old daughter. They live in Eau Claire, Wisconsin, and in his free time, Ryan loves to spend time with his family, hunt, and play baseball in the summers. </p><p>​</p><p> </p><p> </p><p><strong>In this episode:</strong></p><ul><li>Owning and running assisted living/group homes</li><li>Getting started in real estate at a young age</li><li>Buying off the market vs buying off the MLS</li><li>Balance is a gift</li><li>Using creative financing to build up your real estate portfolio</li><li>Financing your first home</li><li>The systems and software for running a real estate company</li></ul><p> </p><p><strong>Key Takeaways:</strong></p><ul><li>Don't be afraid to take action.</li><li>Having cashflow makes the difference.</li><li>Let time do your work and compound your money.</li><li>Know your money management.</li></ul><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p><strong>Connect with Ryan Gray:</strong></p><ul><li><a href="https://www.instagram.com/ryan_jason_gray/" target="_blank">https://www.instagram.com/ryan_jason_gray/</a></li><li><a href="https://stablelivingllp.com/" target="_blank">https://stablelivingllp.com/</a></li></ul><p> </p><p><strong>Connect with Joel Farrell:</strong></p><ul><li><a href="http://www.joelfarrellloans.com/">www.joelfarrellloans.com </a></li><li>joel.farrell@fairwaymc.com</li><li><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/joelfarrellvaloans/">https://www.linkedin.com/in/joelfarrellvaloans/</a></li><li><a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCISoNioAVR083iLErviv6pQ/featured">https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCISoNioAVR083iLErviv6pQ/featured</a></li><li><a href="https://www.instagram.com/strivefor25_/">https://www.instagram.com/strivefor25_/</a></li><li><a href="https://www.instagram.com/jomifa8301/?hl=en">https://www.instagram.com/jomifa8301/?hl=en</a></li></ul><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>Audio and show notes by<a href="http://premierpodcastpromotions.com/"> Premier Podcast Promotions</a></p>

      <title>BONUS EPISODE: The Fall of FTX - A Reset for the Decentralization Movement</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><strong>“Not your keys, not your crypto." - John Wingate</strong></p><p><strong>"Do your own research." - Michael Allen</strong></p><p> </p><p><strong>Episode Summary:</strong></p><p>What does it all mean!? FTX is going bankrupt, what does that mean for their users and for other crypto exchanges? Tune in to hear from not one but TWO experts on the subject. In this bonus episode we are joined by returning guest Michael Allen and a new guest John Wingate to discuss the future of decentralized banking, the shift to a self-custody platform, how crypto holders can protect their money AND what to expect in the next 24 months. </p><p> </p><p><strong>About Michael Allen:</strong></p><p>Michael has done a number of things in his life; went to military boarding school from junior high through senior year, enlisted in the US Coast Guard.

He started selling various items from a spare trunk in his room at military school, going so far as needing to open a bank account in town to deposit the weekly profits and funding my own purposes while at school.</p><p>Prior to and alongside his time in the military he has kept busy. Michael performed various service industry jobs: everything from salad bar and kitchen prep through being a server at his aunt and uncle’s Italian restaurant in Steamboat Springs Colorado, to serving and then managing a restaurant during daylight hours while he worked nights on the hangar deck in Clearwater Florida. </p><p>Michael has owned various forms of real estate, managed properties, rentals, HOA’s, and been on various boards.</p><p> </p><p><strong>About John Wingate:</strong></p><p>John Wingate is CEO and Founder of Bank Social, a blockchain-based financial system.
