In this powerful Family Office Club Podcast interview, Richard Wilson speaks with Paul Hutchinson—Executive producer of the film "Sound of Freedom", the founder of the Child Liberation Foundation and Liberating Humanity.

As founder of the Child Liberation Foundation, Paul has led over 70 child rescue missions, using his success to fight human trafficking and change lives globally.

Paul will be featured at the Family Office Super Summit from December 10th to 12th, where he’ll participate in a fireside chat. For more details, visit https://familyoffices.com/super/

Early Entrepreneurial Ventures: A $20M Exit:

Paul Hutchinson began his entrepreneurial career with a marketing company focused on mental health, helping individuals overcome anxiety, PTSD, and addiction. At 29, Paul sold the company for $20 million but felt there was more to his mission than financial success, leading him to new ventures.

Pivot into Real Estate: Bridge Loan Capital's Evolution:

After selling his first company, Paul shifted to real estate, founding Bridge Loan Capital, a firm that initially provided short-term, asset-based loans. However, after the 2008 financial crisis, Paul and his co-founder, John Pennington, pivoted into multifamily real estate—a more stable asset class.

Building Integrity: The Bridge Investment Group's Success:

Paul’s success in real estate was driven by a strong commitment to integrity. Avoiding excessive debt, maintaining transparency with investors, and prioritizing relationships over short-term gains allowed Bridge Investment Group to thrive. Their ethical approach led to high-profile partnerships, like one with Don Hartman, who invested $300 million.

Mastering Influence: The Key to Raising Capital and Impact:

Whether raising capital or raising awareness for a cause, the key is to ask the right questions, listen closely, and offer solutions that align with others' values. Paul highlights authenticity and integrity as essential ingredients to building strong relationships and successfully raising capital.

The Child Rescue Mission: A Life-Changing Experience:

In 2014, Paul’s life was transformed when he participated in an undercover operation to rescue children from a sex trafficking ring in Cartagena, Colombia. Though initially hesitant to get involved in such a dark issue, Paul’s participation in this mission ignited his passion for child rescue. He has since been involved in more than 70 operations, working directly with law enforcement to free children from trafficking and bring perpetrators to justice.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key Takeaways:

The Power of Influence: Successful influence, whether raising capital or saving children, is rooted in understanding others' needs, offering solutions that align with their values, and building relationships based on trust and authenticity.

The Importance of Giving: Philanthropy played a key role in Paul’s success. By committing to give away a significant portion of his income early on, he attracted the right partners and opportunities, enabling both personal and professional growth.

Building Relationships and Integrity: Success comes from authentic relationships and being aligned with your values. If an opportunity isn’t the right fit for someone, don’t force it—integrity must come first.

Child Rescue Work: Paul’s personal involvement in rescuing children from trafficking shows the profound impact that com

In this video, Richard Wilson shares the importance of values in building a successful business and strong relationships. Coming to you from Bali, Richard discusses how the core values of his Investor Club define how they operate, hire, fire, and grow together. Drawing on his experience as an Eagle Scout, Richard reflects on the Boy Scout Law, which outlines timeless values like trustworthiness, loyalty, and helpfulness, and explains why these principles should guide every decision you make in your business and personal life.

He challenges viewers to consider: Are your values clear? Are you working with people who align with those values? And, if someone doesn’t operate by your values, are they an “outlaw” in your world? Richard’s straightforward approach helps you see why aligning with the right people is critical for long-term success.

In this video, Richard discusses the importance of aligning your team with your values and how values shape business success. Don't be an outlaw - make sure your values are clear and embedded in your team's culture!

Hello, I’m Richard Wilson, and I’m coming to you from a tax investment conference here in Hawaii. I've been talking with many of my clients, including ultra-wealthy family office managers, and we’ve had some interesting discussions about what it means now that Donald Trump is going to be the next president. I wanted to share some of those insights with you in this video.

I’m not a political expert or an economist, but based on my conversations with family offices, investors, and founders in my network, I want to give you a snapshot of what I’m hearing from them about what we can expect under Trump’s presidency. In other words, this is what 80% of the investors I talk to are predicting for the economy and different industries now that Trump has been voted in.

What’s likely to improve under Trump’s presidency: Cannabis, psychedelics, oil and gas, energy, and U.S.-based manufacturing are expected to see growth.
Business owners and founders will likely benefit from lower taxes, which will allow them to reinvest more in their businesses and the economy.
I also think the real estate market will improve, with less volatility and less risk of a market collapse due to the economic growth that’s anticipated.

What could face challenges: If Trump lays off a significant portion of federal employees—whether 25%, 50%, or more—it could have an impact on spending, despite severance packages. This could affect the broader economy.
There’s also concern that Trump’s aggressive trade policies and tariffs might lead to inflation.

What I’m hearing from investors and business leaders: One point Elon Musk raised, which has come up in several investor conversations, is that the U.S. government has over 400 federal agencies. We've only been around for 200 years, so every year we've created two new government agencies. Musk calls them "brake pedals" that slow down economic growth. Many believe removing these barriers and adding "gas pedals" will lead to more entrepreneurship, more jobs, and better opportunities in the U.S.
There’s also a lot of hope that Trump’s leadership could encourage more entrepreneurial opportunities. However, some investors are concerned about the impact of AI replacing jobs and the potential for mass government layoffs.

Other key topics I’ve been hearing: Big pharma and big food companies are under increasing scrutiny. There’s a push for healthier products, with some hoping that we’ll see fewer chemicals in our food and more natural ingredients.

Many investors are also worried about growing censorship and the potential loss of free speech. Some of the founders I’ve spoken with switched to supporting Trump because they believe he’ll protect our ability to speak freely and explore the truth.

I also want to mention that many Republicans who were hesitant to support Trump in the past may now see him as the best option, especially with Elon Musk’s support and his principle-based approach to leadership. Even those who don’t agree with everything Trump says recognize the importance of supporting policies that will protect free speech and promote economic growth.

As an investor community, we do want to encourage business owners and investors to think critically about the potential impacts of these political shifts on their businesses, portfolios, and industries. How should we adjust our strategies and position ourselves moving forward with Trump as president?

Thanks for watching, I look forward to shaking many of your hands at our annual investor summit next month where you can connect with 250+ investors and hear from more ultra-wealthy investors on stage than any other event held anywhere globally in 2024 or 2025.

Welcome back to another episode of the Pro Athlete Interview Series, presented by Family Office Glove! Today, we’re joined by Carolyn, a former professional athlete turned successful entrepreneur, who has built a thriving business around health, wellness, and fitness. In this conversation, Carolyn shares her wealth of experience, offering invaluable advice to athletes looking to transition into business and entrepreneurs looking to make a lasting impact.

In this episode, we dive into:

The Growing Wellness Industry: Carolyn discusses how more people are prioritizing their health and wellness, creating an ever-expanding market for fitness and wellness services. Whether working out at home, in a gym, or using virtual platforms, this shift is reshaping the way we approach our well-being.

Pivoting and Market Adaptation: Drawing an interesting analogy to Starbucks facing a hypothetical mandate against caffeine, Carolyn talks about the importance of staying adaptable. She explains that while health and wellness are growing, businesses must constantly pivot to meet evolving consumer demands.

Aligning Passion with Career: Carolyn emphasizes the importance of pursuing a career that aligns with your values and passions, not just for financial gain, but for long-term fulfillment. She believes when your lifestyle mirrors the goals you're chasing, success becomes inevitable.

The Power of Mentorship & Feedback: For athletes transitioning to business, mentorship is crucial. Carolyn highlights the value of seeking advice from seasoned professionals and how being open to feedback and constructive criticism can dramatically improve your offerings.

Entrepreneurship in the Wellness Space: Carolyn shares her journey as a fitness entrepreneur, from side hustles in yoga and personal training to managing virtual services that scale globally. She talks about how to manage a service-based business and maintain quality while scaling rapidly.

AB Testing & Customer-Centric Messaging: Carolyn discusses how in the fitness industry, different people have different goals. Whether it’s injury prevention, mental performance, pregnancy, or sports performance, a one-size-fits-all message doesn't work. She stresses the importance of pivoting and A/B testing your message to ensure it resonates with your target audience.

Key Takeaways:

Mentorship and Networking: Surround yourself with people who can challenge you, give constructive feedback, and help you grow. Carolyn stresses the importance of having trusted advisors, whether they’re business mentors, attorneys, or industry peers.

Start with a Vision: Regardless of where you are in your career, start thinking long-term. Carolyn urges everyone to create a plan for their health and wealth, and stick to it—being proactive in both will pay off in the long run.
