    Sep 18 2025
    I sat down with Dandapani, a Hindu priest and former monk turned entrepreneur, for a conversation that blended the spiritual with the practical. We explored his deep expertise on why focus is a superpower, why a healthy ego mattered, and how karma shaped our lives. He shared actionable strategies to build willpower, manage energy, and stay focused at work and at home. We also dove into his years in a monastery, the role of awareness, and how to structure spiritual practices so they actually stuck. If you’d ever wondered how to bring spirituality into daily life without the fluff, that episode was for you. Thanks to GoDaddy for sponsoring this video!

  • #92 If I Wanted To Become A Millionaire Creator in 2025, This Is What I’d Do
    Sep 15 2025
    I sat down with my friend Jon Youshaei ( @youshaei ) to get real about what it takes to build content that actually drives business. We dug into how I face down public speaking fears, deal with critics, and why showing both the grit and the glam is essential. I also shared exactly how I make money—through my holding company of “boring” businesses, my media brand, and investments—plus the systems I use to scale it all. We talked deal-making, financial literacy as a moat, and the responsibility creators have to tell the truth. If you’re serious about building wealth and not just followers, this episode is for you. 00:00 Introduction 00:02 Navigating the World of Business Content 00:23 Overcoming Fear and Criticism 01:27 The Concept of 'Show Don't Tell' 02:41 The Moment of Realization 03:01 Curiosity and Financial Literacy 03:31 Changing the Investment Landscape 06:48 The Importance of Processes and Systems 12:38 Creating High-Quality Content 14:47 Repurposing Content and Finding Viral Moments 20:08 Building a Community with Cult Sayings 22:36 Consistency in Personal and Professional Identity 23:00 Building a 21st Century Media Company 24:31 Breaking Down Income Streams 29:05 The Challenges of Brand Deals 32:55 The Value of Education and Info Products 38:59 The Importance of Deal Making 44:44 Facing Business Challenges MORE FROM BIGDEAL: 🎥 Youtube: / @podcastbigdeal 📸 Instagram: / bigdeal.podcast 📽️ TikTok: / big.deal.pod MORE FROM CODIE SANCHEZ: 🎥 Youtube: / @codiesanchezct 📸 Instagram: / codiesanchez 📽️ TikTok: / realcodiesanchez OTHER THINGS WE DO: 🌐 Our community: https://contrarianthinking.typeform.com/to/WBztXXID 📰 Free newsletter: https://contrarianthinking.biz/3XWLlZp 📚 Biz buying course: https://contrarianthinking.biz/3NhjGgN 🏠 Resibrands: https://resibrands.com/ 💰 CT Capital: https://contrarianthinking.biz/4eRyGOk 🏦 Main St Hold Co: https://contrarianthinking.biz/3YfGa8u Learn more about your ad choices.

Codie, this podcast is so very much needed for those of us who struggle with the tough conditions of the current economic age. As the cost of living rises and buying power decreases, we need to implement innovative strategies that will make all the difference. It feels hopeless out there, but it turns out we have all the reason not to despair.

Thank you for bringing out the ideas that not only challenge common beliefs, but that give us real power and real capability. I fiercely love your podcast and the episodes are so valuable I'll be listening to all of them over again.

Every interview is tailored to give the audience financial education and actionable advice that can truly move one's life forward. It's the real deal.

I can't say enough good things about this pod. Keep it going Codie, there are some of us in Canada that especially can use this!!
