Over the years, he has built an empire that includes ownership of more than 50 companies and a real estate portfolio of 225 properties. He also sold his company We Buy Gold for $100 million, a milestone that cemented his place among the most successful young business owners in the country. He is known as a true powerhouse in the entrepreneurial world, having launched over 100 businesses and made his first million by the age of 19. Abraham takes us through the full journey, from a teenager with a bold idea to a business owner operating across multiple industries.

TRADEMARK ATTORNEY ON HOW ENTREPRENEURS CAN PROTECT THEIR BRAND || ROSEZENA. J PIERCE || EPISODE 091
In this episode, we sit down with Rosezena “TheBizLawyer” Pierce, a leading trademark attorney and the CEO of RJ Pierce Law Group, PC in Chicago. Known as “the biz lawyer” on Instagram, Rosezena takes us through her extraordinary journey, from excelling in law school to facing the harsh reality of job hunting, and ultimately building a highly successful law firm dedicated to intellectual property law. Rosezena opens up about her background and the challenges that shaped her path. She graduated from John Marshall Law School with a 3.5 GPA and excelled in her intellectual property classes, yet she did not receive a single job offer. She also shares her unique experience of studying for and passing the bar exam while managing the responsibilities of motherhood. Instead of waiting for an opportunity, she created her own, launching a practice that served underserved small business owners in trademark law and using social media to educate and attract her first clients. Today, RJ Pierce Law Group is ranked Number 40 out of more than 28,000 trademark law firms in the country, and Rosezena herself is ranked Number 15 out of more than 33,000 trademark attorneys. She credits that success to hard work, smart strategy, and a dedicated team, including a key lesson from her first business coach about building a team instead of personally handling every client. We then dive into why protecting your brand matters so much. Rosezena compares trademarking your brand to owning the land before you build a house on it, because without that foundation, everything you create can be taken from you. She walks us through the real life stories that prove the point, including the original Burger King case in Illinois, which shows how critical it is to secure federal trademark rights before someone else does. Rosezena also breaks down exactly what it takes to protect your brand, step by step. It starts with a thorough search, including the USPTO website, followed by opinion letters and client counseling, then filing and handling any office actions from the government. She explains why hiring an attorney can make a major difference, and why review times have grown longer since the surge in filings during COVID. For brands ready to go global, she explains how international trademarking works through the Madrid Protocol, weighing its benefits and challenges, and why hiring local counsel is essential for navigating different laws in each country. She also covers what happens after you file, including the importance of monitoring your brand so you can stop infringement before you lose your rights. This episode is a must watch for aspiring entrepreneurs, small business owners, and anyone who wants to understand the ins and outs of trademark law. Rosezena Pierce’s story is one of resilience, innovation, and the power of using social media to build an impactful career, and her advice will leave you ready to protect the brand you have worked so hard to build.

HOW MY KIDS BUILT MOKIPOPS: STORY OF RAISING ENTREPRENEURS || AMBER KHAN-ROBINSON || EPISODE 089
In this episode, we sit down with Amber, co-founder of MOKIPOPS, to talk about how a simple homeschool project with her three children, ages 3, 5, and 7 at the time, turned into a thriving frozen fruit bar company. What started as a fun way to teach her kids about food, creativity, and hard work quickly became something much bigger when her then 7 year old son asked a question that changed everything: "How can we make more money and not be at every single event?" That one question sparked a serious commitment to building a real, sustainable business for the sake of their children and their family. We dive deep into what it really looks like to raise entrepreneurs from an early age, how Amber and her family taught their kids about business, money, and responsibility while still keeping things rooted in creativity and fun. From humble beginnings in a home kitchen in 2016 to hand molding every single popsicle themselves, MOKIPOPS grew through grit, community connection, and an unwavering commitment to quality. Amber shares how understanding her children's strengths, curiosity, and ideas played a central role in shaping the direction of the business, proving that kids are capable of far more than we often give them credit for. Today, MOKIPOPS has sold hundreds of thousands of natural frozen fruit bars and has grown from a shared facility into their own dedicated factory, now using automated machines that produce thousands of pops per hour. Along the way, the brand has caught the attention of major names like GoDaddy, the Atlanta Hawks, Entrepreneur Magazine, Atlanta Magazine, Southern Living, VOXAtl, and the Atlanta Small Business Network. This conversation is a powerful look into what it takes to build a family business from the ground up, the importance of listening to your children, and how raising young entrepreneurs can change the entire trajectory of a family's future.
