“They get so excited about investing in the U.S. that they don’t get the proper consultation before they do so.” 

Many Canadians lose money in U.S. real estate not because the deals are bad, but because the rules are different. Success comes from understanding taxes, choosing the right markets, and keeping structures simple. When emotions stay out of the way and the math leads, cross-border investing becomes far more predictable and profitable. 

Michael Matthew shows how Canadians can avoid expensive mistakes by focusing on landlord-friendly states, population growth, and proper financing; why U.S. markets often offer better entry prices, how inspections can save you from disasters, and why due diligence matters more than excitement when evaluating a property. 

Michael is a 35-year professional accountant who specializes in U.S.–Canada real-estate taxation. For over 15 years he has helped Canadians structure deals, avoid tax traps, and make smarter investing decisions on both sides of the border. 

Expert action steps: 

1. Choose landlord-friendly states where eviction timelines and legal processes won’t destroy your cash flow. 

2. Invest where population growth aligns with your asset type—match product to real demand. 

3. Get specialized cross-border tax and structural advice before purchasing anything to avoid costly mistakes.

“The whole point of life is people, is other people, is the love that you have for other people. That love is what makes you strong. It’s what makes your life worth living.” 

Real wealth in business and entrepreneurship doesn’t come from possessions or revenue; it comes from people. When you build a company around love, gratitude, and relationships, everything else becomes a tool rather than the goal. “Love people, use things” becomes a strategy: clients are human beings, your team is family, and money is simply fuel to serve more lives. 

Sitting in a house full of laughter, food, and hugs on Thanksgiving, I’m reminded that every real win in my life has people at the center of it. I feel deep gratitude for my partner, my kids, my clients, my team, and every entrepreneur who’s trusted me to help grow their business and impact. Relationships are the real ROI. 

If this lands for you, turn it into action. Stop stressing over stuff that breaks and start protecting the love in the room. Call someone you haven’t spoken to and tell them what they mean to you. Build your business around serving people, not worshiping things.

“Leadership is not something you do it’s something that happens through who you are.”  

True strength in leadership begins at home. Families built on trust, communication, and that face the emotions beneath the surface, create a foundation far more powerful than any set of numbers on a spreadsheet. Stability, purpose, and resilience come from the invisible yet tangible forces of love, compassion, and loyalty. These shape how people show up in life and business. 

René Sonneveld explains how these principles guided him through extraordinary chapters: global career pivots, deep personal loss, and the rediscovery of love. René shows why family governance fails without emotional governance, why “invisible capital” determines longevity, and why the most important asset a leader brings into any room is who they are. His insights tie into the message that family alignment wins over financial success. That's the true measure of legacy. 

René is a father of five and a trusted coach to enterprise families worldwide. From corporate boardrooms to deeply human crossroads, René helps families protect unity, purpose, and generational strength. 

Expert action steps: 

• Prioritize emotional health and invisible capital—not just financial metrics. 

• Lead from identity and character rather than roles or authority. 

• Protect your reputation intentionally—every decision compounds across generations.

“When they see your face, look into your eyes, you’re real and you’re human and you’re authentic, that’s when trust happens.” 

Strong relationships form the backbone of every successful business. Growth becomes easier when you intentionally invest in the connections that matter, release the ones that drain your energy, and stay open to forming new relationships that bring purpose and momentum. Trust, consistency, and genuine human connection—not tactics—create the stability and opportunity that leaders rely on. 

Alan McLaren, a veteran executive and relationship strategist, shares powerful insights on why intentional connection shapes long-term success. He explains how clarity, visibility, and authenticity help leaders expand their influence, strengthen their network, and build trust quickly and naturally. His approach to service-driven leadership reveals how meaningful conversations can spark new partnerships, deepen existing ones, and create opportunities that last. Everything culminates in the upcoming December 3 event, where Alan will help leaders use strategic connection to accelerate trust, authority, and growth.

“82% of all Americans are now saying they expect the brands they buy from to share their values.” 

Staying true to your values isn’t just the right thing to do, it’s one of the smartest ways to grow a business. Today’s episode breaks down why conviction creates clarity, why clarity creates trust, and why trust is the new currency in a marketplace flooded with noise, doubt, and deception. 

Kurt Luidhardt shares how his work with political campaigns led him to uncover something much bigger: millions of consumers actively looking to spend their money with brands that reflect their beliefs. Kurt explains why this shift matters for entrepreneurs, how conviction-driven marketing works, and why businesses that communicate their principles authentically attract more loyal, resilient customers. He also unpacks the modern crisis of trust and shows how shared values help people make faster, more confident buying decisions. 

Kurt is the co-founder of a nationally recognized digital strategy firm and the creator of the Liberty Spenders framework. With decades of experience helping high-profile leaders and brands grow through principled messaging, Kurt now empowers business owners to align their marketing with their deepest convictions—and win because of it. 

Expert action steps: 

• Remove the idols that distort your judgment—anything you place above God or your highest principles. 

• Build a business around solving a real, concrete problem that people urgently want fixed. 

• Protect your family and never let business consume the relationships that matter most.

“You can never outperform your self-image.” 

Reclaiming health begins with ownership. True healing happens when you stop outsourcing your well-being and start living by principles that restore your body’s natural intelligence. That means breaking free from the dependency mindset built by Big Pharma, choosing single-ingredient foods over processed ones, fasting to reset your metabolism, and sleeping deeply to rebuild from within. Health is not just the absence of disease—it’s the active pursuit of energy, purpose, and clarity. 

Ben Azadi shares how he went from obese and depressed to a peak state of physical and mental fitness. Drawing from his book Metabolic Freedom, Ben reveals how changing your self-image rewires your biology, fasting activates your body’s repair systems, and gratitude—what he calls “Vitamin G”—becomes the ultimate anti-inflammatory. His philosophy blends science and purpose to show that you can heal yourself by living in alignment with nature’s design. 

Ben is a bestselling author, speaker, and educator on metabolic health. Through his mentorship with Dr. Daniel Pompa and nearly two decades of experience, Ben has guided tens of thousands toward vibrant energy and longevity. His mission is clear: to make you healthy again—physically, mentally, and purposefully. 

Expert action steps: 

1. Take daily Vitamin G—gratitude rewires your brain and heals your body. 

1. Live on purpose with your purpose—direction fuels longevity. 

1. Cut out the noise—fill your mind with empowering information and people.

“Follow your passion. Master your mindset. Monetize doing what you love.” 

Living your passion begins with self-awareness and courage—the willingness to question whether the life you’re living is truly yours or one built on others’ expectations. Passion isn’t something you stumble upon; it’s something you uncover by aligning your work, purpose, and daily choices with what fuels your heart. True joy emerges when you stop living in “shoulds” and start listening to your inner compass—transforming fear and limitation into clarity and flow.

From a 15-year career in hospitality to working with Dr. Ivan Misner and the Transformational Leadership Council, LuAnn’s story is proof that life rewards aligned action. Her philosophy, “Work in your flame, not in your wax,” encourages people to create lives centered on purpose. Through tools like The Passion Test and mindfulness practices, she helps clients shift from survival to joy. 

LuAnn is a certified Passion Test facilitator, business coach, and long-time member of Jack Canfield’s Transformational Leadership Council. She is also president of The Coach Initiative, a nonprofit connecting volunteer coaches with organizations in need. Her mission: to help individuals and businesses uncover their core values, lead with purpose, and live passionately.

“If you optimize your hormones, you lose depression, you lose anxiety, you feel good again, you’re energized, you’re good to go.”
