We used to think $100K was "making it"—until we realized that was just the starting line. This episode is all about the tiny mental pivots that completely change your trajectory.
From military budgets feeling like "play money" to managing real assets with real consequences... from SMART goals that limit you to chasing lions in a snowstorm... these shifts redefine what's possible.
📌 Key Topics:
✅ Why handling Uncle Sam's millions prepares you for nothing about real wealth
✅ The danger of tying your identity to achievements (and what to anchor it to instead)
✅ "Fake it till you make it" vs. becoming your future self through daily action
✅ How to merge faith, family, and work—without compartmentalizing your life
One truth changed everything for us: Your windshield is bigger than your rearview mirror for a reason. Stop just glancing back at how far you've come—start building the life that scares you.
Ready to outgrow your old mindset? Hit play.
