“You do have to set your goals. And I found that over time, anybody who has set a goal usually will reach it. I’m not saying it’s going to be easy. But most people do reach those goals.”
Counterterrorism isn’t just the stuff of spy novels—it’s a masterclass in thinking fast, adapting faster, and staying cool when everything’s on fire (sometimes literally). This episode unpacks the high-stakes world of counterterrorism operations and draws surprisingly practical lessons for navigating the chaos of entrepreneurship. If you’ve ever wondered what hostage negotiations and scaling a business have in common, this one’s for you.
Our guest delivers jaw-dropping stories from his time as a State Department counterterrorism agent, including moments of brilliance, catastrophic missteps, and everything in between. He breaks down how making decisions under pressure, owning your failures, and building strong, adaptable teams are critical—whether you’re chasing terrorists or chasing quarterly goals. Spoiler alert: it’s all about playing the long game and knowing when to pivot.
Fred Burton is a former State Department special agent, bestselling author, and all-around expert in counterterrorism and crisis management. His books, Beirut Rules, Ghost, and Chasing Shadows, offer unmatched insights into the complexities of global security and leadership under fire. When he’s not sharing his wisdom, he’s probably plotting the next page-turner that’ll keep you up all night.
Expert action steps:
1. Stay Optimistic
Remember that no matter how challenging the situation, tomorrow is a new day with new opportunities.
2. Set Clear Goals
Establish meaningful objectives and stay committed to them. While the journey may be difficult, persistence often leads to success.

“Podcast listeners and hosts have the highest income and net worth profile in all social media. Psychologically, these folks are action takers, endures, they’re looking to solve their problems and get to the next level.”
Marketing isn’t dead—it’s just evolving, and fast. The smartest entrepreneurs are ditching outdated, ad-heavy tactics and embracing the power of podcast guesting to generate leads, close deals, and build authority. The key? Long-form, unscripted conversations that resonate with audiences tired of being “sold to” and craving authenticity.
In this episode, we explore how podcast guesting has become the secret weapon for business growth, drawing on lessons from recent high-profile success stories (hint: think elections). You’ll learn why traditional marketing’s ROI is sinking and how showing up on podcasts can help you tap into a goldmine of engaged listeners. The guest breaks it down step by step: no fancy tech, no huge ad spend, just real talk that builds trust and drives results.
Expert Action Steps
1. Embrace Podcast Guesting
Begin positioning yourself as a guest expert on relevant podcasts. Identify shows with an audience that aligns with your target market and pitch yourself with a clear message about the value you can provide. Focus on authenticity and storytelling to build trust with listeners.
2. Leverage Long-Form Content
Use podcast appearances as a platform to dive deep into your expertise. Highlight how your services or products solve real problems. Long-form, unscripted conversations allow you to connect authentically with an audience, humanizing your brand and establishing authority in your niche.
3. Optimize the ROI of Your Marketing Efforts
Shift your budget and energy away from costly ads with declining ROI. Instead, invest time in podcast guesting, which requires minimal cost and offers a high return by directly engaging potential clients, investors, or partners in meaningful conversations.

"You never have to be perfect. But should you move the needle forward 1% every single day moving forward? Yes, it’s good for you and it’s good for the people you love.”
Success in business and entrepreneurship begins with the same foundation as success in life—health and fitness. Without a strong, energetic body and sharp, focused mind, even the best business strategies fall flat. This episode dives into why prioritizing your fitness is the ultimate power move for long-term success.
Fitz Koehler, fitness expert, race announcer, and cancer survivor, shares her unfiltered insights into the transformative power of health. With a no-nonsense approach, she discusses how fitness not only helped her overcome cancer but also fuels her to live vibrantly and inspire others. From battling through gruelling treatment to running the Boston Marathon, Fitz’s story is a testament to resilience and the value of investing in your physical and mental well-being.

Expert action steps:
1. Control What You Can:
“In every single situation, control what you can. Know the difference. If you can’t control something, let it go. Let it go. But if you can, your nutrition, your exercise, your work output, whether you show up early, stay late, all of those things, control what you can.”
2. Live on Perspective:
“Traffic jams are better. Red wine on the carpet is better. The flu is better because all of that pales to being a kid with cancer. So perspective, perspective, perspective.”
3. Hunt for Joy:
“I’m a joy addict. I’m very fortunate. I was born with a passion for joy. I will choose to be happy in any situation. However, if that’s not you, you can still become a joy addict. Make it a habit.”

“Blue jeans and boots built America, and if we’re going to build it again, this renaissance, it has to start with jeans and boots.”
Today we welcome Pete Roberts, a pioneer in American manufacturing and the visionary behind Origin USA and Jocko Fuel. Known for reviving manufacturing on American soil, Pete shares his personal journey from small-town Maine to building a brand synonymous with grit, resilience, and purpose. Pete is driving an American-Made Renaissance. He shares his mission to bring manufacturing back to the U.S., emphasizing the importance of American-made products and the generational craftsmanship that built America’s industrial heartland. From rescuing a denim factory in North Carolina to rebuilding the supply chain from “dirt to shirt,” Pete’s goal is simple yet profound: make quality products, built entirely in the USA.
After a defining moment in Abu Dhabi, Pete doubled down on creating Origin, a company committed to manufacturing high-quality jiu-jitsu gis, jeans, and boots on U.S. soil.

Enter the epiphany moment and play around with the Law of Attraction. You will see that it works whenever you actually do it. Go full throttle—no quitting. Do the gratitude and visualization exercises daily—just five or ten minutes a day—and bam, you will see things shift. The Law of Attraction works, but only if you actually put in the work.
You should also use the Time Lapse Method, where you list 15 things you're grateful for in the present tense, including past, present, and future blessings. It's like time travel, but for your mind, and it gets your subconscious to think that all those good things are already happening. The secret sauce? Don't do it just for the results—bask in the feeling, enjoy the process, and make it part of your daily routine, like brushing your teeth (but more fun). And if you really want to hit that $10 million goal, you have to get real—visualize all the things that could go wrong, too, so your brain is prepared for success and stress. Most of all, love the process and the results will follow.
Andrew Kap is the author of “The Last Law of Attraction Book You’ll Ever Need To Read” -- a perennial bestseller giving readers a unique understanding of the topic that no other “LOA” book has ever been able to do — by going the extra mile of addressing WHY people who get excited about trying it out still can’t manage to get in the habit of using the methods for just five minutes a day.
The book has sold over 150,000 copies, bolstered by thousands of five-stars on Amazon, and a growing YouTube channel devoted to it.

Have you ever felt hesitant to invest in yourself, wondering if it’s just "too much money"? What if that hesitation is holding you back from major growth?
One common obstacle many coaches face is the 'too much money' objection from potential clients. By reframing the distinction between spending and investing, coaches, business owners, and professionals can recognize that strategic investments in personal growth are not merely expenses—they’re essential for levelling up in both income and impact.
Whether you’re a coach, entrepreneur, or aspiring thought leader, go beyond your comfort zone, break free from a scarcity mindset, and embrace the transformative power of investing in yourself.
