Ep394: Cutting Through Life's Toughest Fabrics with Entrepreneur & Philanthropist Eric Karnezis
Hi, I'm Eric Karnezis. My life's been a pretty wild ride. I grew up on the streets after my parents, who were involved in drugs, ended up in prison. Those days were tough, but they taught me a lot about standing on my own two feet and bouncing back, no matter what life throws at you. I didn't have much growing up, but I had big dreams. And I worked hard. Really hard. Now, I've made it as an entrepreneur and done pretty well for myself. I'm talking millions. But even more remarkable is that I found peace along the way. I got into spirituality, and it's changed everything for me. I'm not just about making money. I believe in giving back. That's why I'm creating a difference in my community, helping out where possible. I've also written a book about my life. It's not just my story; it's a message of hope. I want to show people that no matter how hard things get, there's always a way to turn your life around. So, that's me. I've seen the worst and best of life and am here to share what I've learned. I am looking forward to meeting you and making a difference together. More of Eric: Website: Instagram:

Ep377: Rewiring the Mindset for a Thriving Future with Real Estate Tycoon Ross Hamilton
Ross Hamilton is the author of several books and the founder of Connected Investors, an investment property marketplace and social network for real estate investors. As a young adult, Ross had a passion for BMX freestyling and trained with the renowned Dave Mirra, the "Michael Jordan" of the sport. Unfortunately, a severe injury forced him to retire from the sport, and he began looking for a new career. Inspired by his entrepreneurial family, Ross discovered real estate while browsing the self-help and investing sections of Barnes and Noble. He quickly amassed a portfolio of 50 residential properties in Wilmington, then sold some of them before the 2008 real estate crash, using the profits to establish Connected Investors. Eventually, Ross' tech company was sold to First American for approximately $100 million. Ross decided to retire at 40 and started an estate-based charity to help those in need.
