Who this show is for

This show is about people who built something and paid for it. Founders who started from nothing. Firefighters, medics, military, first responders. Pro athletes. Musicians and actors who came up working class. Tradespeople running real shops and real crews. Authors, pastors and coaches who built something first.

What we don't book is anyone selling the dream. No MLM or network marketing. No course, mastermind or coaching operators. No crypto, NFT, day-trading or dropshipping promoters. If your main income is teaching other people how to make income, this is not your show.

We also don't book founders who came up on family money or a trust fund, or anyone whose parents were famous in the same field they went into. This is not a judgment about you as a person. The show is about the climb, and if you started at the top there is no climb to talk about.
