    275 Chris Prefontaine - Wicked Smart Real Estate
    2025/07/25

Through his Wicked Smart® Community, he’s helped investors across North America close hundreds of real estate deals — all without using their cash or credit. After weathering 9/11, the 2008 crash, and COVID, Chris rebuilt a resilient business model built to thrive in any market. Today, his mission is to empower driven individuals to become confident, "Wicked Smart" investors — no matter where they’re starting from.In this episode, Jason and Chris discuss:How Chris rebuilt his real estate business after the 2008 crash using “terms” dealsWhat does it mean to buy real estate using creative financing strategiesThree powerful methods: Owner Financing, Lease Purchase, and Subject-To dealsWhy market conditions don’t matter when you learn how to pivot with strategyChris's “Three Paydays” system and how it creates consistent cash flowKey Takeaways: Buying real estate “on terms” gives investors the ability to acquire properties without relying on traditional financing. No credit checks, large down payments, or bank approvals are required, making it a powerful strategy for anyone starting from scratch.Principal-only payments through owner financing offer a smart path to build equity fast. This approach increases monthly cash flow and minimizes interest expenses, especially valuable in today’s high-rate environment.Success in any market comes down to knowing where to focus and being able to pivot. When one lead source dries up, there's always another list or niche to explore—what matters is adaptability.A committed and aligned team can be the difference between staying stuck and scaling a business. Chris credits his company’s growth to surrounding himself with people who complement his strengths.Long-term commitment trumps quick wins. Choosing a niche you believe in and sticking with it—without distractions—for 3 to 7 years is what ultimately creates lasting success.“Pick a niche, pick someone you can get behind, and then put the blinders on for three to seven years. That’s where the real breakthroughs happen—when you stop chasing shiny objects and stay committed.” - Chris PrefontaineGrab Your Free Books from Chris: https://www.wickedsmartbooks.com/jason Free Real Estate Masterclass by Chris: https://wickedsmartacademy.com/mastersclass Connect with Chris Prefontaine:Website: https://smartrealestatecoach.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/chrisprefontaine/ Connect with Steve and Jason:LinkedIn: Jason or SteveWebsite: Rewire, Inc.: Transformed Thinking Email: grow@rewireinc.comShow notes by: Angelo Paul TagamaAudio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.

    274 Shawn Nelson - Let Me Save You 25 Years
    2025/07/18
    Shawn D. Nelson is the founder and CEO of Lovesac, the furniture company known for its modular couches and big ideas. He’s also the author of Let Me Save You 25 Years: Mistakes, Miracles, and Lessons from the Lovesac Story, where he shares the wild ride of building a disruptive brand from scratch. With a BA in Mandarin Chinese and a Master’s in Strategic Design and Management from Parsons, Shawn blends creativity with strategy—skills he later passed on as an instructor. From winning Richard Branson’s reality show to leading a publicly traded company, Shawn brings bold lessons in innovation, grit, and growth to every conversation.In this episode, Jason and Shawn discuss:The origin story of Lovesac and how it started as a college projectThe philosophy of “Designed for Life” and true product sustainabilityMistakes, miracles, and lessons shared in Shawn’s book Let Me Save You 25 YearsScaling a company with purpose while remaining humble and authenticWhy building the right team is key to lasting leadership and growthKey Takeaways: A playful idea turned into a powerhouse brand—Shawn’s giant bean bag sparked Lovesac, a company now rooted in durability, innovation, and intentional design. What began as a college experiment evolved into a billion-dollar business.Shawn’s entrepreneurial path wasn’t all smooth—he shares unfiltered stories of painful mistakes (like a team member losing a fingertip) and remarkable triumphs, including taking Lovesac public.“Designed for Life” isn’t a marketing phrase—it’s the core of Lovesac’s identity. The company’s products are built to last and adapt, creating a unique edge in a disposable world.You don’t need to have it all figured out from the start. Sometimes, just surviving long enough opens the door for your true mission to take shape.True leadership isn’t about doing it all yourself. It’s about hiring exceptional people, trusting them to lead, and stepping back so they can thrive.“Once you get to a point—and in my case, it took the better part of 25 years—you can finally wrap your organization around something that matters. Even if it takes a long time to find that purpose, once you do, you can build something way more meaningful and impactful than just a big bean bag or a clever couch company that makes some dude a bunch of money. Because that’s not really what motivates any of us.” - Shawn NelsonConnect with Shawn Nelson:Websites: https://www.lovesac.com/ , https://shawndnelson.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/shawndnelson/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/shawnoflovesac/ Podcast: https://shawndnelson.com/podcast/ Connect with Steve and Jason:LinkedIn: Jason or SteveWebsite: Rewire, Inc.: Transformed Thinking Email: grow@rewireinc.comShow notes by: Angelo Paul TagamaAudio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.

    273 Vince Wanga - The Art of Direction
    2025/07/11

    Vince Wanga is a dynamic international design thought leader, creative keynote speaker, award-winning creative executive, author of The Art of Direction, serial entrepreneur, and experienced brand consultant with an exceptional range of expertise built over a distinguished two-decade career.


    As the former Vice President and Head of Creative for one of the fastest-growing technology startups in North America, he led corporate brand strategy and creative direction during a period of extraordinary growth, from pre-Series A to a “unicorn” valuation of over $1 billion.


    In this episode, Jason and Vince discuss:

    • Why failures were the greatest teacher in Vince’s creative and leadership journey
    • The meaning behind his book, The Art of Direction, and why leadership is an art
    • How creative leaders play a pivotal role at the forefront of business change
    • The realistic role of AI in the workplace and how leaders should approach it
    • What he learned scaling a company from Series A to a $1B valuation in four years


    Key Takeaways:

    • Vince attributes much of his growth and resilience to the failures he encountered early in his career, viewing them as foundational learning experiences rather than setbacks.
    • Leadership isn’t something you apply like a formula; it’s a nuanced, evolving practice that demands empathy, creativity, and the ability to adapt to changing people and circumstances.
    • The most successful companies aren’t reactive—they stay true to their core values and make bold, intentional choices even when the market zigs in a different direction.
    • Rather than fearing artificial intelligence, leaders should view it as a partner—a tool that can automate mundane tasks and amplify strategy when used wisely.
    • Creative professionals often feel disruption before others do, serving as early indicators of broader changes in business and culture—what Vince calls the "canaries in the coal mine."


    “I truly believe leadership has to be empathetic. You need to understand your industry, your team, and your customer—and that requires the ability to adapt, not just with the times, but with circumstances, the economy, and all the variables thrown your way. That’s where the science of leadership breaks down, and it becomes an art form—because art, inherently, is an adaptable strategy.” - Vince Wanga
