In today’s episode, I talk to best-selling author and YouTuber, Tiago Forte.

After years of struggling with a chronic illness that no specialists could find a cure for, Tiago created his own process to research, collect, and organize information so he could figure out how to live a healthier and pain-free life.

That experience led him to write his first best-selling book Building a Second Brain, which helped Silicon Valley businesses, NASA scientists, and everyday people just like yourself reach their greatest potential. 

Now, Tiago has published his second book, The PARA Method: a simple and intuitive four-step system that helps us sort all the information flooding our brains from the digital world so we can live better, smarter, and more fulfilled lives.

You can check out the PARA method at www.ForteLabs.com/Books

Manny is a SUPER successful real estate entrepreneur with a net worth of over $200 million dollars — but he didn’t come from a wealthy family and he wasn’t born with the “right” connections… In fact, life wasn’t always easy for Manny and his family.

Today, Manny is a luxury car enthusiast and created a real estate empire — and, he teaches people how to invest and profit off real estate in his online courses, which you can find at www.MannyKhoshbin.com

He’s come a LONG way.

In today’s episode, I talk to serial entrepreneur and commodities trader Rafa Martinez.

Rafa is on his way to billionaire status — he got massive success by trading natural commodities on the stock market and starting businesses.

But life hasn’t always been easy for Rafa.

When Rafa was 12, he immigrated to the US from El Salvador with his family — escaping crime and violence from the civil war. They came to the US with the dream of a better life and future, but had to start completely from scratch working minimum wage jobs and living in a 1½ bedroom apartment as a family.

Rafa has one of the most touching rags to riches stories I’ve ever heard — can’t wait for you to hear it.
