    S3 E14: Scott Walker: What a kidnap for ransom negotiator can teach you about handling crisis

    Scott Walker is one of the world’s most experienced kidnap for ransom negotiators.

    Over the course of his career, he’s helped resolve over 300 cases or similar crises.

    Scott spent 16 years as a Scotland Yard detective engaged in counter-terrorism operations and resolving kidnap for ransom cases and was also deployed to hostile environments on behalf of military intelligence to conduct covert interrogation operations.

    Now Scott uses his unique understanding of how people think, especially in times of adversity, to train leaders over the world in resilience, negotiation, crisis-management and communication.

    The dental industry unlocked with Dr. Omar Shuayb!  The $$$ behind different procedures, the secrets behind the practice, and what YOU need to know before your next appointment. PLUS Dr. Ian & Dr. Joe Mort tell all!
    This week, Jason is joined by dentist and founder of Shuayb Dental Institute in Tampa Bay, Florida, Dr. Omar Shuayb!

    Dr. Omar and his brother opened their practice in 2005 and 18 years later, they now own and operate not one, not two, not three, but seven practices in Florida. Their practices offer a full scope of general and cosmetic dentistry with expertise ranging from regular dental check-ins and dental services all the way to a full set of new teeth. They have generated such a high level of success in the Florida market that they have tagged the official dental practice of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. 

    Dr. Omar gives insight to which practice in the dental industry is most lucrative, why he believes that starting your own practice is best, the education needed to work in the dental field, when he would recommend braces and/or invisalign, what insurance won’t cover, how insurance impacts the price of each service, the importance of being frugal and paying off loans as fast as possible, the value in getting a second opinion, and answers the money mafia’s questions about all things dental! Does he recommend composites? What is the difference between veneers and crowns? Who has been the most scared of getting work done? 

    PLUS Jason is joined by Dr. Ian Mort and Dr. Joe Mort in the recap and dive deeper into the dental industry!

    Dr. Omar reveals all that and so much more in another episode you can’t afford to miss!

    UFYB 273: Transitioning to Leadership + Navigating Office Politics: A Conversation with Jenn Deal, Annie Framand, and Jamie Lee

This week on the podcast I’m joined by Jenn Deal, Annie Framand, and Jamie Lee (three of my Advanced Certification in Feminist Coaching students) to discuss what ambition is and why women have trouble identifying with it, how to advocate for yourself in the workplace, and the right way to negotiate.

    In this week’s episode, Jason chats with former cheerleader and stunt expert, entrepreneur, and podcast host Roland Pollard about all of the money behind the music business. Roland dives into how much he makes per track that is produced and sold, what goes into producing a track, and the secret to finding financial security in your life. He discovered his unique position in the cheer training niche and quickly learned to leverage his skill set in order to drive earnings – but how exactly? Roland discusses his approach to social media monetization and the strategies he used to determine his value. In the episode, he also elaborates on the complexity of the relationship with his daughter (as a dad, coach, and business manager). Did he expect that he would go viral? How did he overcome the haters? What does his 3-month time off plan look like? Is DJ Ro in the cards? Roland answers all of that, plus his financial aspirations and what is next on the horizon for him in another episode you can’t afford to miss.

    566: 10 Properties in 8 Months by Saying “No” More Than “Yes” w/Jason Rash

    566: 10 Properties in 8 Months by Saying “No” More Than “Yes” w/Jason Rash
    How many rental properties do you own? It could be one or one hundred rentals. But, whether you’re a rookie or veteran real estate investor, it’s hard to not be impressed by Jason Rash’s story. Jason has put off investing in real estate for most of his working life, focusing more on passive income streams like investing in stocks. This all changed when Jason saw tens of thousands in stock value disappear from his accounts. He wanted something more reliable, stable, and calculated that he could control. Of course, real estate investing fits that criteria exactly. So what did Jason do? Did he go and buy one rental, wait a few years, and then try to buy another? Nope. Jason went and bought ten properties over the span of eight months. That more than one property a month within his first year of investing! Be warned, there is a method to this madness. Jason has a tight control on his long-distance investing, having only the best agents, property managers, plumbers, electricians, and contractors on speed dial. This wasn’t a system he fell into, this was a system he intentionally built. Jason shares his six-part criteria that any new investor can use, especially when trying to minimize headaches and maximize cash flow. In This Episode We Cover: The huge competitive advantage of having local knowledge and a core four Lowering your property management fee while creating a win-win for both parties Seller credits and using them to finance house repairs and upgrades Fighting off “shiny object syndrome” so you can stay focused on your goal Jason’s six-step criteria to buy headache-free houses when investing from a distance Building a scalable, repeatable, simple system for finding, funding, and closing on great deals And So Much More!

    How to make sure you're paid for your time and work
    Time is money. But often, especially in the creative industries, trying to advance your career can mean literally selling yourself short. It's commonplace and borderline expected, depending on where you are in your career, to have to offer time and labor for free or for deeply discounted rates to get work. In this episode of Life Kit, journalist Juleyka Lantigua-Williams shares tools for advocating for yourself and your paycheck, as well as reflections on the value of betting on yourself.

    We frequently talk about networking as a real estate investor: for example, talk to your mail carrier because they likely have seen opportunities in your neighborhood. But what if you are the mail carrier? Today’s guest, George Gipson, worked for the USPS when he started investing, which seems like the perfect opportunity for finding deals. But as with any start in real estate investing, it isn’t always as easy as it seems. In today’s episode, we talk about taking action and committing to yourself - to ensure that those key opportunities actually work in your favor. We also talk about how important it is to learn your personal finances before diving into investing, plus how George used house hacking and short-term renting to reach financial freedom at an early stage of his investing. He’s even quit his job at USPS now so he can focus full-time on real estate. This is a real story about getting it done and seeing your own potential. In This Episode We Cover: Investing that doesn’t meet your standard rules of thumb Overcoming issues that might be deal-breakers for other investors Living for free through house hacking and short-term renting Setting up your short-term rentals for success Utilizing your network to find deals Pushing through your commitment to yourself, even when it isn’t easy Finding the path in life that’s right for you And SO much more!

    TPP382: 7 lessons we learned from a billionaire investor

    TPP382: 7 lessons we learned from a billionaire investor

    The Robs have another special guest this week. This time it’s billionaire investor Stephen Schwarzman. Sadly, he’s too much of a big wig to actually be on the show so The Robs are going to be picking apart his book instead.

    You might never have heard of Stephen Schwarzman before, but after this podcast episode it’s certain to be a name you’ll remember. 

    After reading his book, Rob & Rob found that there are seven lessons that we can all learn from him. 

    Now, you might be thinking ‘how can I possibly relate to a billionaire investor when I’m just starting out?’

    Well don’t worry, we promise that these seven lessons will be invaluable to you no matter what stage of your property journey you’re at. Here’s the seven lessons Stephen will be sharing with us:

    1. Failure is the best teacher in an organization
    2. The best executives are made, not born
    3. Identify problems and bring solutions
    4. How to raise money
    5. It's the same effort to work on a big thing as a small thing
    6. Group decision making
    7. Building a team of 10s

    There’s plenty to learn from today’s episode and it’s even a learning curve for Rob & Rob, so hopefully there will be a number of takeaways for you too. 

     

    In the news this week we’ve got a big headline for you, ‘PM pledges biggest planning shake-up since WW2’. Like usual, it’s a headline that’s been blown out of proportion, however if you are a developer or you build properties then this could be good news for you. 

    According to this article from Mortgage Strategy there are now going to be more things that you can do without having to acquire planning permission. Included in it are converting commercial premises to residential, demolishing an old home to replace it with a new one and if you want to extend or add floors there’s going to be a fast track method for that. So again not quite as drastic but certainly good news for some. 

     

    Naturally this week’s Hub Extra is the book that we’ve just dedicated this podcast episode to, What it Takes by Stephen Schwarzman. If you have any interest in business or investing then this is a book that you’ll enjoy, and there’s plenty more lessons that you’ll learn from it.

     

    We’d love to hear what you think of this week’s Property Podcast over on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram. You might even have a topic you’d like us to cover in the future - if so, pop us a message on social and we’ll see what we can do.

    Make sure you’ve liked and subscribed to our YouTube channel where we upload new content every week!
