So more to come in terms of operating companies, but I think this is the one that I'm gonna be focused on for the foreseeable future, just helping elevate the brand and expand it and make sure that we build a great team.

I wanna talk briefly about one thing that you said, which is the new things that are coming.

And without giving away the new things, I would love to talk about the philosophy of these new things, because I think there's probably a business owner in the audience that may believe that they are a good fit for this new thing.

So let me frame it for everybody.

Alex, Layla and I are committed to this one big idea of creating kingmakers.

We want to create category kings in over the next 10 years.

So our our goal is to find a business launch or find a business in a certain category.

But there's a lot of people who have done things that don't talk about it, don't teach it, and aren't even on the internet.

And that's actually saying that I would love to ask you, which is like, do you see ever business leaders like delegating too much of like the shit work to other people because they don't see that opportunity?

I think it varies based on skill level.

And I think a lot of folks sometimes are like, oh, that's a tough conversation, can you have it for me? Or that's a comp conversation, can we just have HR have that conversation? So sometimes based on tough conversations, people will want to either backpedal from it or not have it.

And all I tell my team around that is, if you feel like you're delegating something, offer support in the delegation.

So if I was saying, hey, Jimmy, so Jimmy on my team, I said, hey, Jimmy, I'd love for you to make sure that our event looks great next week.

He's like, man, I'm really struggling about these two things.

Hey, could I, do you want me to help you in this conversation with the vendor? Do you want me to jump on the call? Now Jimmy feels a lot, a sense of support around it.

And I'm curious, like, what role do you think having support has played in you being able to have all this success?

Mermaid queen? I like

this set.

Can I get you a little...

It is insane how Layla can look at you and know what you're amazing at and she will put she will obsess over making sure you get to do that thing and And I have never met anyone in my life that has so much love, so much care, so much skills, so much passion to be able to do that for people.

Layla will put everybody before her because she's fascinated and motivated by bringing out the best in people.

You know? That's funny.

I'll tell you, you talk about this being a confessional, I'll tell you.

It's the kind of the process of Alex, Leila and I talking about me coming on was really sensitive because I told them that I'm really afraid to do that because I didn't want to do anything to hurt our friendship.

Have you met, have you made every single one of your shots or have the, have there been those misses?

There have been significantly more misses than there have been successes.

The crazy part is no one talks about the misses, right? And that's for two reasons.

Reason number one is we don't talk about the misses.

We try to figure out when something that happens, we just take the thing that happened and we don't tell the world about it at all.

Because we feel like, well, if I tell the world that I actually made a mistake, then the world will think poorly of me in some way.

But I think finally today in the world, the mistakes or the lessons learned or the truth behind what actually happened is a lot more valuable because never has there been a time where every single person on social media is essentially saying, look at me, I'm amazing.

So what does that type of pressure at such a young age build inside of a person for their future?

Es broma.

La parte triste es que creo que hay tantos y estoy pensando cuál sería uno muy importante.

Creo que es realmente triste que se les enseña a las personas que la deuda es mala.

La razón por la que la deuda es mala sería esencialmente decirle a alguien que conducir es malo.

Tienes un coche, tienes que obtener una licencia para poder conducir el coche.

Les damos a las personas tarjetas de crédito.

Les otorgamos a las personas líneas de crédito sobre el valor de su vivienda y les decimos: «Adelante, amigo».

¿Cuáles serían esas tres verdades o tres lecciones para ti?

What is the money framework you wish everyone knew sooner? That you don't have to

wait till you're 65 for retirement.

Financial freedom is available to you today.

And if you can just decide that passive income is greater than monthly expenses, you can actually create a really great life for yourself.

I talk about this little thing called the wealth ladder.

The wealth ladder is anyone can use it.

The first rung in the wealth ladder is, can we get our active income to be greater than our monthly expenses? Can we just get the active job that we're doing to pay for the lifestyle that we have? Because if the job that we're doing is not paying for our lifestyle, something dramatically is wrong.

What's your main place that you're going to right now and creating the most content? Is it YouTube? Is it Instagram? Is your website? I have realized that all the

That's crazy.

Right? The, the Forbes 400 is littered with people that are business and real estate tycoons.

The US real estate ta- tax code is engineered for investors, and we don't think about that.

We think about putting another 3% in our 401[k].

So I explained to my son, I said, "If the golden stairways are companies and real estate, what should you invest in?" He's like, "Companies and real estate." I said, "Yes.

Well, let's start with that.

Let's start with the Vanguard ETF, VOO, that owns the companies, and let's start with VNQ that owns real estate." And now he gets dividends from both of those, because now he knows as he puts his $50 birthday contribution or whatever in this, he actually can see it invested in the right asset classes.

Mm-hmm.

But Sharan, Sharan, Before I go waxing lyrical and speak for 20 minutes just about how much I think you're awesome, please give our listeners a little bit of an MO, just a quick elevator spiel as to what the heck it is you're up to and what you've been up to up to this point.

Yeah, thank you for having me.

I think if I could speak like you, I would sell a lot of stuff.

So someday you can just gift me your accent and I will be able to sell a lot more stuff.

But I talk like a yank, like you guys say, right? But I'm grateful to be here.

I consider myself, my goal was always to be a full-stack entrepreneur.

When I say a full-stack entrepreneur, it's like, how do you go from the dirt to the clouds? And a lot of people just have this goal.

Um, Has there been a time where since that 17-year-old realization, has there been times or is there a specific time where you had that severely tested, where you wobbled significantly? And what was it and how did you sort of manage to navigate yourself through that? What support networks did you have?

So

the limits of your language are the limits of your world, right? And so when you're communicating an idea, you want to do three things.

First, you want to frame the idea.

And what does the framing of the idea mean? A framing of the idea, a frame is a container of context.

And For example, that is if I had the Mona Lisa and I could have the Mona Lisa duct tape on my kitchen wall, or it could be in the Louvre on a beautiful frame with lights on it.

Just the fact that it is on the top of my kitchen table, you will think that my daughter drew it.

But if you saw it in the Louvre, you're like, wait, that's priceless.

Yes.

Mm-hmm.

And without giving away the new things, I would love to talk about the philosophy of these new things.

Because I think there's probably a business owner in the audience that may believe that they are a good fit for this new thing.

So let me frame it for everybody.

Alex, Layla, and I are committed to this one big idea of creating kingmakers.

We want to create category kings over the next 10 years.

So our goal is to find a business, launch or find a business in a certain category, and as Alex would say, point the entire Death Star of all the media and resources to that partnership to help that partnership become a category king in that partnership.

And then I would say that we would need to launch at least one opco that is a multi-billion dollar opportunity.
