What's Really Blocking Your Success (It's Not What You Think) | Our Family Invests
Kute Blackson was raised behind his father's church in Ghana, watching a man known as "the miracle man of Africa" heal the sick in front of crowds of a thousand people. At 14, he was ordained to inherit that ministry, over 300 churches and hundreds of thousands of followers. At 18, he said no, packed two suitcases, took $800 from his mother, and moved to LA knowing not one person.What came next wasn't a straight shot to success. Kute spent years broke and homeless, chased a talk show deal with the managers behind Michael Jackson and Mariah Carey, then turned it down on a gut feeling he couldn't explain. He gets honest about unconsciously rejecting money for years because his father had chosen money over family, and how that "purity" nearly kept him broke for good. He breaks down the real reasons goals stall out: timing, unlearned lessons, and the subconscious counter-intentions running underneath what we think we want.Highlights:Why Kute walked away from an inherited religious empire at 18 with nothingThe real story behind his years of unconsciously rejecting moneyWhy chasing the "right" opportunity can be the wrong oneThe four hidden reasons your goals aren't manifestingWhy truth, not action, is the actual starting point for changeWant more free tools and articles on wealth, growth, mindset, and family?

The Real Numbers Behind Converting a House Into an Assisted Living Facility | Our Family Invests
Isabelle Guarino runs the Residential Assisted Living Academy, the company her father Gene started, and she's turned converting single family homes into senior housing into a real, repeatable business.In this episode, she opens the books on one of her own properties: a six-bedroom home converted into a 10-bed residential assisted living facility, generating $60,000 a month in revenue against $40,000 in operating costs and a $10,000 mortgage, for a real $10,000 a month in profit. She walks through exactly where that money comes from and where it goes.Isabelle explains what the team behind one of these homes actually looks like, why undercapitalization is the mistake that kills most new operators, and how SBA 7(a) and 504 loans can lower the capital required to get started, especially for medical professionals. She also shares what families should actually look for when evaluating care for a loved one: caregiver ratios, call response times, and the questions most people are too rushed or too scared to ask.Highlights:How a six-bedroom home became a 10-bed facility generating $10,000 a month in profitWhy undercapitalization, not bad real estate, is the most common reason new operators failWhat a licensed administrator does and why it's the most important hire in the businessHow SBA financing can reduce the capital required to get startedWhat families should ask when evaluating a care facility for a loved oneWant more free tools and articles on wealth, growth, mindset, and family?

The One Number That Tells You If a Deal Is Good | Our Family Invests
Kirby Atwell flipped over 100 properties in his twenties and came out the other side at the exact same net worth he started with. That experience led him to build his own filter for a good rental deal: the 1% net rule, a stricter version of the classic 1% rule that measures what's actually left in his pocket after expenses, not gross rent.In this episode, Kirby breaks down how that one number keeps him from overpaying for a property that looks good but won't cash flow, why he's watched high income earners feel completely trapped despite big paychecks, and how he sources off-market deals by calling listing agents directly. He also shares how he and his wife self-manage 43 vacation rentals, including one built into the barn on their 45-acre Indiana farm, on about 90 minutes of his own time a week. And yes, he tells the story of living through the 2011 Fukushima disaster in Japan too.What You'll Learn:How the 1% net rule works and why it's different from the standard 1% ruleWhy gross rent is the wrong number to chase if your goal is actual freedomHow to spot a deal that looks good on paper but won't cash flowA simple way to source off-market deals without a buyer's agentWhat it actually takes to self-manage 43 vacation rentals on a few hours a weekWant more free tools and articles on wealth, growth, mindset, and family?

Why High Performers Miss Their Own Burnout | Our Family Invests
Sports medicine physician Dr. Annie Purcell spent 13 years running her own private practice before a COVID shutdown gave her something she hadn't had in over a decade: time to sit still. What she found wasn't clarity, it was insomnia, spiraling anxiety, and a body that had been sending warning signs for years while she stayed too competent to notice.Annie tells Mike and Caroline what it actually looked like when her body forced the stop her mind refused to make, including the moment her own doctor told her flatly it wasn't her thyroid, and the line she wrote that stopped us cold: you can be highly competent and completely disconnected from yourself, and sometimes the competence is how the disconnection survives.What you'll learn:Why high achievers are often the last to recognize their own burnoutThe physical warning signs that show up before the mental ones doHow Annie used a CARES Act 401k withdrawal to fund her first rental propertyHow real estate professional status combined with a W2 can work for a two income householdWhat it actually costs to keep performing instead of pausing to ask whyWant more free tools and articles on wealth, growth, mindset, and family?

I Wasn't Who I Said I Was, with Stephen Scoggins | Our Family Invests
Stephen Scoggins built and exited multiple companies, one approaching nine figures, and hosts the BUILD podcast with over 48 million views. But this episode isn't about that climb. It's about what happened after he got everything he thought he wanted and felt nothing.Stephen opens up about the season after his exit, when a comment from his son Tyler at a taco shop cracked open just how absent he'd been while being present. He walks through the Five Constraints that quietly derail founders and families (arrogance, ignorance, impatience, fear, insecurity), why his dyslexia became an operational advantage instead of a source of shame, and the jet boat moment in New Zealand that gave his upcoming book its title. Fair warning: figuring out you're not who you said you are is a lot less fun with a life jacket on.What you'll learn:Why Stephen calls his homeless-to-nine-figures story the least useful part of his journeyThe five internal constraints that quietly sabotage founders and familiesHow to build a daily rhythm that protects presence without relying on willpowerWhy dyslexia became one of Stephen's sharpest operational toolsWhat a stranger on a jet boat in New Zealand told him that reshaped his next chapterSubscribe to The Weekly Compass, our free weekly newsletter with short practical tips for building wealth, aligning your family, and living intentionally: https://OurFamilyInvests.com/newsletter

The Debt Fund Strategy Behind Whitney Elkins-Hutten's $800M Portfolio | Our Family Invests
Whitney Elkins-Hutten is a partner in over $800 million of real estate and her team just crossed $560 million in loans originated through their debt fund. She breaks down the risk-tiering system she uses to sort a portfolio into cash, debt, and equity, so market volatility doesn't take her by surprise.She explains why she's valuing cash flow more than ever, how uninterrupted compounding at 9% can quietly outperform a "perfectly executed" real estate deal, and a tax mechanic on debt funds that almost nobody talks about. She also names the specific red flags to watch for in private credit right now: leverage stacking, high loan-to-value funds, and operators who cherry pick their best loans out from under investors.And apparently an $800M portfolio still leaves room for high-altitude half marathons, which might explain the discipline.How to sort a portfolio into risk tiers before the market forces you toWhy uninterrupted compounding can beat a "perfect" equity deal over timeThe tax structure that lets debt fund income offset passive lossesRed flags in private credit and debt fund dealsWhat her $560M debt fund targets and how it's structuredWhy she's leaning into cash flow over growth right nowConnect with Whitney Elkins-Hutten: passiveinvestingwithwhitney.com, ashwealth.com, or her book Money for Tomorrow, available on Amazon.Subscribe to The Weekly Compass, our free weekly newsletter with short practical tips for building wealth, aligning your family, and living intentionally: https://OurFamilyInvests.com/newsletter

The Asset Class That's Too Small For Wall Street - Katie Neason | Our Family Invests
Redevelopment sits in a strange gap. It's too small for institutional developers and too complex for passive investors, which is exactly why Katie Neason has built a career inside it. Katie is a fourth generation Bryan, Texas native who left corporate banking after missing her son's first steps, and turned that decision into a decade of flipping houses, then over ten years redeveloping her own downtown.In this episode, Katie breaks down her real first deal, a townhome project that nearly died over a five foot zoning gap, and how one blunt comment to the city ended up saving the whole thing. She also covers financing redevelopment deals, working with local governments, and why she calls this asset class "one investment, two returns."HIGHLIGHTS:Why deals between $1M and $5M are too small for institutions, too big for passive investorsHow to get past the gatekeeper and into a real meeting with your city plannerThe questions that reveal if a city actually supports your projectHow to de-risk your first redevelopment dealWhy local investors build healthier communities than outside developersConnect with us!Instagram | OurFamilyInvests.com
