- 0:00The ability to smash it out of the park on an opportunity in
- 0:02business takes confidence. That confidence all stems from
- 0:06integrity. Can you trust yourself to do
- 0:08everything you say you're going to do?
- 0:10Most human beings, they can't even start with that.
- 0:12Good integrity doesn't mean that you're going to be successful.
- 0:15It's just a basic requirement for being successful.
- 0:18So start with integrity. I think those are the foundation
- 0:20of everything. How much is enough?
- 0:22Owned 2 jets. I'm selling both of them right
- 0:24now. I know what it feels like to
- 0:26live in a 30,000 square of an house.
- 0:27What's authentic for me right now is sitting in my Beamer, my
- 0:30Escalade for an 11 year old Sequoia, and a four year old
- 0:34Tesla, and they make me just as happy.
- 0:36What specific incident in your life switched this mindset for?
- 0:40You, my 17 year old daughter, had been depressed for four
- 0:42years and then she tried to take her life right before my eyes.
- 0:47That moment really picked me up, caused me to do some super deep
- 0:51reflection because I was now just on one mission.
- 0:53And it was. Welcome back to the Hannah
- 0:57Hammond show. I'm sitting here today with
- 0:58Chris Kron out of Utah, who is a amazingly incredible real estate
- 1:03entrepreneur, mentor and mindset code.
- 1:06She's an author, a speaker. He's done thousands of dollars
- 1:09and over a billion dollars worth of real estate transactions and
- 1:12is a leader for men, women and everybody in the real estate
- 1:15space, mindset space and just the journey to reaching your
- 1:18highest potential, which is so aligned with what I the mission
- 1:21that I am on. And so I'm excited to have you
- 1:22here today. And I mean, you, you've built an
- 1:25incredible brand and so influential to so many people.
- 1:27You have millions of followers across your social media
- 1:29platforms and YouTube and all of that.
- 1:31So I'm excited to hear your story and this kind of new
- 1:35journey, this new chapter of the journey that you're on.
- 1:37So thanks for being here. Absolutely, Hannah.
- 1:39Glad to be here. So I was watching one of your
- 1:41podcasts or one of your YouTube videos before we started today,
- 1:44and you shared something that says that you are reintroducing
- 1:47yourself to the world as the minimalist millionaire.
- 1:50And I would love to dive into that and see how I know you went
- 1:54kind of from rags to riches. And then you're transitioning
- 1:56your life right now and you're starting to share more about
- 1:59this minimalist millionaire concept.
- 2:01And so I'd love to kind of hear what mission you're on and what
- 2:03that means to you. You know, it's been the weirdest
- 2:06thing. You know, I, I get online years
- 2:08ago, I share my story, I show my cars, I show my house, I show my
- 2:11World Travel. I do these things and there's so
- 2:13many shallow comments that that just stick out to me.
- 2:16Like one time I was, I was doing a thing and I was wearing
- 2:19sandals and I was literally being made fun of.
- 2:21Like bro, can't afford shoes or I was wearing some headsets and
- 2:24they weren't bows or something. And like it like it's strange,
- 2:28the comments that will come out. I made a video in my master
- 2:30bedroom. I got like a 55 inch TV and
- 2:32someone's like, Oh my gosh, that guy can't be really.
- 2:35He's got a 55 inch TV only, right?
- 2:37And I'm like, we, we live in this world where at least in a
- 2:40real estate brand, there's a lot of people that are constantly
- 2:43evaluating, are you real? And what's the proof?
- 2:46And there's just a lot of shallow energy.
- 2:48Like it's just literally you're only as good as the car you
- 2:50drive or the house that you live in.
- 2:52You know, I mean, I've had a whole set of staff that run my
- 2:54house and, and organize it and drive my kids around and, and,
- 2:58and, and do meal prep and all of these different things.
- 3:00And I've, I've lived all of that lifestyle.
- 3:02I've owned 2 Jets. I'm selling both of them right
- 3:04now. I know what it feels like to
- 3:06live in a 30,000 square of a house.
- 3:08And I've had a chance to also have some really powerful
- 3:12awakenings that have put me on the other side to realize the
- 3:15real answer to the question of how much is enough.
- 3:19And that's a question that I think everyone at some point
- 3:21should really ask themselves, which is what are you going
- 3:25after and what's it really about and what is it defining?
- 3:27And how much of it is about ego and significance and how many of
- 3:30it is because it's authentic and true for you?
- 3:33And I guess ultimately what I'm taking a stand for, Hannah, is
- 3:35authenticity. What's authentic for me right
- 3:37now is trading in my Beamer, my Escalade, for an 11 year old
- 3:42Sequoia and a four year old Tesla.
- 3:45And they make me just as happy and they do the job and I just
- 3:48don't need them. I've listed my $17 million
- 3:50house. It's just more house than I
- 3:52could ever conceive of possibly needing.
- 3:56Yeah, and I I think it is so important.
- 3:58And I was in a mastermind this week and we were talking about
- 4:00that too, is like, what? When is enough enough?
- 4:02And what is the real intention behind the things that you're
- 4:05doing right? And we say, like me, I love
- 4:08giving, I love serving, I love teaching, educating, and I also
- 4:11love being a student. But sometimes we can lie to
- 4:15ourselves or cloud like the real intention behind it.
- 4:18And all humans have an ego. That's what's allowed us to
- 4:21survive. And we like our ego fed.
- 4:23We like the applause, we like the the camaraderie.
- 4:27We like to feel needed. We like to feel like we're
- 4:29making an an impact and a difference.
- 4:31But sometimes we have to really reflect on, is this really
- 4:34driving impact and change? Or is it still another way to
- 4:38kind of drive our ego and feed that, that that ego that we need
- 4:42filled? And so I love that you're saying
- 4:44that because really less is more, you know, And at what
- 4:47point is enough, enough? And I think it's something that
- 4:50allows us to really, I feel fortunate to come from nothing
- 4:54and build it up because it allows us to like hit those
- 4:56accomplishments and those accolades and those things in
- 4:58our life. But then, like you said, once
- 4:59you hit a point where you have it all materially right, I think
- 5:03we start to hit this thing of maybe it's called like that
- 5:06midlife crisis or we start to go inward and say, OK, as what it
- 5:09what's what else is there, right?
- 5:11And I'm actually hitting that point in my life right now.
- 5:13Like I never wanted to get married.
- 5:14I never wanted to have kids. And right now I'm at that point
- 5:16in my life where I was like, well, am I robbing myself of
- 5:19some of the most beautiful experiences in life?
- 5:21And do I have it all wrong about what my mission really is and
- 5:24what I stand for? So I guess what, what specific
- 5:28incident in your life switched this mindset for you?
- 5:31And like, what, what mission are you on now as you're starting
- 5:33to, you know, downsize your house, let go of some of these
- 5:36material things that you worked really hard to get.
- 5:38And obviously we always have the haters.
- 5:40Whether you have it or don't have it, you're going to have
- 5:43the haters when you have this influence.
- 5:44So like, what was that real shift for you?
- 5:46And I guess what mission are you on now?
- 5:48My, my 17 year old daughter had been depressed for four years
- 5:52and then she tried to take her life right before my eyes.
- 5:56And that moment really fucked me up.
- 6:01And it really caused me to do some super deep reflection
- 6:04because I was now just on one mission and it was to save her
- 6:08life. And fortunately we were able to
- 6:10find a, a therapy that worked. It was very progressive, got her
- 6:15with a team of shamans. She had a life changing
- 6:17experience and that was now 2 1/2 years ago.
- 6:19Now she wants to live and, and then since then she's gotten
- 6:22married and man, she is happy and she's doing so well.
- 6:25But it was just an eye opening moment for me.
- 6:28And I, I think for years I've been teaching that all people
- 6:31should be focusing on mastering 4 things.
- 6:33And I've mastered them long enough that they just don't
- 6:36bring me a lot of value anymore. And I'm moving now beyond human
- 6:39beings. When you look at faith, finance,
- 6:43fitness, family, those four FS really, really seem to
- 6:50circumscribe the entire human experience.
- 6:53And I always tell people in my men's group, I tell these men,
- 6:56if you can take 5 years and master these areas, for example,
- 7:00get your body to its fittest level where it's now an easy
- 7:04lift and it's not a struggle with food and it's not a
- 7:06struggle with exercise. It's just now a something that
- 7:08you embody. And then do the same with
- 7:10family. Master the game of love and deep
- 7:13connection. Stop avoiding what's hard and
- 7:15difficult and get in there and learn how to cultivate the
- 7:18deepest, most meaningful moments when it comes to your finance.
- 7:21Just figure it out and make the money and residualize it so that
- 7:23you don't have to waste 40 years of your life playing a money
- 7:26game. And then that last area, how are
- 7:28you with God? Like, do you know how to channel
- 7:31the voice of God and hear Him hurt in your life so that you
- 7:36can every day through deep meditation, feel connected?
- 7:39I teach these to men. And when you get to a level of
- 7:41mastery, that's when you seem to, I think, graduate from all
- 7:46of just the chaos of life and you get to move on to what your
- 7:49real mission and purpose is. My real mission and purpose is
- 7:52not being an influencer. It's not having millions of
- 7:54followers. It's not doing my second billion
- 7:56dollars worth of real estate. It's not achieving a certain
- 7:59amount of net worth. Like I can promise myself that
- 8:02on my deathbed, I'm going to look back and I'm going to say
- 8:03you stayed too long in a game that no longer served because
- 8:07when you have everything you need and then you're wasting
- 8:10your time to pursue more. Why legacy?
- 8:13Well, I just think that that's actually a different form of
- 8:15ego. It's like, no, no, I'm here for
- 8:16impact and legacy and I want to change the world and I want to
- 8:18be remembered. I'm like, that's just a
- 8:20different face of ego. God's got this.
- 8:22God does not need you. So what is your next level?
- 8:26And this is the question I'm asking now.
- 8:28So my next level, you know, there's a lot of very
- 8:30interesting things that I'm doing.
- 8:31I, I still have my businesses, I'm still doing great work.
- 8:34I'm still training up investors, I'm still creating millionaires,
- 8:37but it just doesn't have a grasp or a hold or a level of meaning
- 8:39for me. Hannah, right now I'm pursuing
- 8:42A5 year doctorate degree in ancient Chinese medicine.
- 8:46It's called Qigong. And I'm also having fun
- 8:48following the childhood and the footsteps of Christ that led him
- 8:54through the known world before he started his mission on this
- 8:56planet in Jerusalem. Because I'm curious about how he
- 8:59was as a Taoist or how he mastered Chinese medicine when
- 9:03he visited and lived in India from the ages of 13 to 29.
- 9:07Or what he did with the Essenes of a certain sect of mysterious
- 9:11Jews that lived outside of Jerusalem up until 13 and going
- 9:14through India and then later London and then Africa.
- 9:16Like, that's a huge curiosity of mine.
- 9:19And I want to understand beyond who Christ is, beyond what a
- 9:22church can say, who he is. Now, that's just a personal
- 9:24passion. I also have a mission to find
- 9:27men and women that are twin flames on this planet and to
- 9:30teach them what real love is. This has nothing to do with
- 9:33finance, but it's just the next step in my evolution.
- 9:37And you're talking about like actual relationships, personal
- 9:40relationships, finding your twin flame.
- 9:42Yeah. How do you find them?
- 9:44And then how do you keep it from being just a karmic soulmate
- 9:47relationship where you're going to piss each other off?
- 9:50How do you cast off the wrong and the right game?
- 9:53How do you find the deeper levels of what true
- 9:55unconditional love and advocacy actually look like?
- 9:58This oneness game is what I've been called to teach and it's
- 10:01started with what might happen to my daughter 2 1/2 years ago
- 10:04is how do we find oneness and true communion with the person
- 10:08that we love and then the other people on this planet.
- 10:11Yeah, yeah. And that story hits so home to
- 10:14me because I, you know, wanted to take my own life when I was
- 10:1720 years old. And it was a very dark time.
- 10:19And now I have a beautiful, beautiful life that I am so
- 10:23happy to wake up to every day. And, you know, I embrace the
- 10:25challenges that come every day now.
- 10:27And it's a totally different energy, totally different
- 10:29intention. And now I feel called to share
- 10:31that and help others in those dark places because there's so
- 10:34many people suffering out there, so many.
- 10:36And what we see on social media is this fairy tale land that
- 10:40everybody but us is doing amazing and it has everything
- 10:44put together. And we all just know that that's
- 10:45not reality, but we can get sucked into these things.
- 10:48And relationships, especially for driven people like us, are
- 10:51so hard. It's been one of my greatest
- 10:53challenges, if not my greatest challenge in my life is forming
- 10:57and growing really healthy, strong relationships.
- 11:01And a lot of that I found was because I wasn't, I didn't have
- 11:05a healthy, strong relationship with myself first.
- 11:07You know, I was seeking all this external validation from
- 11:10everything outside of me, looking for all these answers to
- 11:13feel whole, feel worthy, feel fulfilled, feel loved.
- 11:16But really deep down, I was robbing myself of all of that.
- 11:20And I was trying to find it through external validation and
- 11:23external success, but was still miserable once I achieved those
- 11:27external material things that I thought would help me.
- 11:30And I, And so did you go through, since you're so
- 11:34passionate now about relationships and about health
- 11:36and healing and all these things, did you go through a lot
- 11:39of these struggles in your life where you you struggled in your
- 11:41relationships with either your family or yourself or your
- 11:44spouse? I I've been in this work for 20
- 11:47years and there's a lot of people that will go to their
- 11:49grave and never know what the real work is.
- 11:51When I say the work, most people, they're glazed over,
- 11:55they have no idea what that means.
- 11:56The inner world is very different than the outer world
- 12:00and our outer world is a reflection of our inner world.
- 12:03So I had, I had 50 men this weekend in my men's group that
- 12:07came over to my home for a retreat and they're standing in
- 12:10my $1,000,000 office where I just closed a really big billion
- 12:15dollar potential deal. And they're feeling the
- 12:17opulence, they're feeling the abundance, they're feeling the
- 12:19energy of what that whole room is about.
- 12:22And that's where I get to break it down and say, you guys are
- 12:25admiring the outside. You're at, you're admiring, you
- 12:28know, my production and my outcome and my results.
- 12:31But the truth is everything you see externally is also an
- 12:34expression of who I am internally.
- 12:36And the question is, am IA lopsided soul soul or am IA
- 12:39balanced soul? For the last 20 years, I've been
- 12:42deep in the personal development game.
- 12:43I've been and spent $2,000,000 on going through mentors and
- 12:47projects and doing the tear downs and the rebuilds.
- 12:50And I've been looking at every area of my life, trying to
- 12:53figure out how to make sure that how I'm living my life
- 12:56internally is a beautiful expression of not just what
- 12:58people see on the outside. So as I've been in that work,
- 13:00yeah, I've been through a lot of relationship issues with my own
- 13:03wife, a lot of just growth as a father of what kind of father do
- 13:07I want to be? How deeply am I really
- 13:10connecting with each of my children?
- 13:11Like struggling with my daughter tried to take her life for four
- 13:13years as a teenager was really, really difficult.
- 13:16Here I am a motivational speaker on stage, changing lives,
- 13:19talking people out of suicide and choosing into life.
- 13:22And I couldn't do that for my daughter.
- 13:23So that drove a lot of deeper inner work.
- 13:26I used to struggle with my weight 15 years ago, I went
- 13:28through transformation. I haven't struggled with this
- 13:30since. So on this planet, I, I, I feel
- 13:33actually handling it. All of us are here for a purse,
- 13:35a purpose to dive into these things.
- 13:37So, you know, if you're having a problem with your personal
- 13:39relationships, if it's your health, your finances, your
- 13:41relationship with God, until you shore up all four of those, I
- 13:44feel like we're going to feel like a less dimensional,
- 13:48incomplete human being. And so, yeah, let's make sure
- 13:51that we're not getting so over committed to outward success
- 13:56where one person is making a lot of money and then secretly
- 13:59they're suicidal or they're depressed or they don't have the
- 14:01love and the connection that they want.
- 14:03That's just a journey of the real purpose of life, which is
- 14:06to challenge ourselves to grow and to become everything I think
- 14:09God intended us for us to. Yeah, I think it all, it's all
- 14:12love, you know, and we lose sight that it all comes back to
- 14:16love. Like creation in itself is, in
- 14:18my opinion, an expression of of unconditional love.
- 14:21And we get so lost in the process.
- 14:24What are some of the key lessons you've learned as you've gone
- 14:31done 20 years of development work and introspective work on
- 14:34yourself and going through this with your daughter and growing
- 14:37your relationship with your spouse.
- 14:38What I mean for somebody out there that's struggling today to
- 14:42maybe they have external success and they're still feeling
- 14:45unfulfilled or empty, or maybe they don't have external
- 14:48success, but they think it will make them feel fulfilled and.
- 14:51Yeah, I think that's the more common scenario that people find
- 14:55themselves in, is that for every successful person, you have
- 14:57hundreds of failures in their mindset.
- 15:00And, and, and this is a really basic lesson, but to answer your
- 15:03question, I think it starts with the basic building blocks of the
- 15:06character that you're becoming and evaluating what kind of
- 15:09human being do I want to be on this planet?
- 15:11And where should I start? Because I could develop
- 15:13compassion or benevolence, or I could develop wisdom through,
- 15:17you know, acquiring knowledge and applying skills.
- 15:18I could lean into entrepreneurship or public
- 15:20speaking. It's like, where do I start?
- 15:21And I always tell people that the, the, the base foundation of
- 15:25everything start with integrity, literally defined as doing what
- 15:29you say you're going to do, because most human beings will
- 15:31never even have a chance to discover what their potential is
- 15:34because they just have really shitty integrity.
- 15:36They say one thing and they do a different thing.
- 15:37And and then I query audiences all the time.
- 15:39I'm like, OK, like if you were given 10 tasks, whether it's at
- 15:43work or at home or in a personal relationship or to yourself, how
- 15:46many of them do you actually do? And the average person does
- 15:49about 6 or 7 out of 10 things. That is such shitty integrity.
- 15:54I would never, if you got down on your knee and said, Chris
- 15:57Christopher Kron, I want to marry you.
- 15:59I'm going to, I'm going to do what I say 60% of the time.
- 16:02I'm going to love you. 60. I was like, hell no, I'm not
- 16:04going to be in a relationship with you.
- 16:05And I don't want to be in a work relationship with you.
- 16:07In fact, I believe that integrity is one of those areas
- 16:10where we can strive for perfection and not as a really
- 16:13high mark. But why else wouldn't you try to
- 16:15be a person that actually does what they say they're going to
- 16:17do? Mom will call you back in 5
- 16:18minutes. Did you actually mean the next
- 16:20day? And you're a liar because the
- 16:22biggest reason why we struggle with integrity is because the
- 16:24world is filled with people pleasers, and people pleasers
- 16:28are liars. That's all that means.
- 16:29They're chameleons sharing a version of themselves with you
- 16:32to try to manage your emotional state or your perception of
- 16:35them. And so integrity and
- 16:37authenticity, I think, are two of the greatest journeys that a
- 16:40person can embark on, which is who am I truly?
- 16:43And can I depend on myself? Because guess what?
- 16:46The ability to meditate and connect with God takes
- 16:48confidence. The ability to be a great lover
- 16:50takes confidence. The ability to smash you out of
- 16:53the park on an opportunity in business takes confidence.
- 16:55That confidence all stems from integrity.
- 16:58Can you trust yourself to do everything you say you're going
- 17:02to do? Most human beings, they can't
- 17:04even start with that. By the way, good integrity
- 17:07doesn't mean that you're going to be successful.
- 17:08It's just a basic requirement for being successful.
- 17:12So start with integrity and then #2 I would say the journey of
- 17:15authenticity. Take off your pleaser masks.
- 17:18Who are you really? Are you willing to really let me
- 17:21see you when you're struggling? Are you willing to face yourself
- 17:24in the mirror and be vulnerable and honest with yourself instead
- 17:27of the lies that we tell ourself?
- 17:29And are you willing to be disliked and hated even by other
- 17:32people? Because it's more important for
- 17:34you to be true to yourself than true to another.
- 17:37I think those are two great places to start.
- 17:39I think so too. I think those are the foundation
- 17:41of everything. And if you can't get those, you
- 17:43aren't going to get very far or have a very fulfilled life.
- 17:46And yeah, I think that's where, and that's where self-confidence
- 17:49stems from and that's where positive energy stems from.
- 17:52I mean, if we're lying to ourselves every day and we can't
- 17:54even, you know, not put the cookie in our mouth 3 minutes
- 17:58after we say we're not going to put the cookie in our mouth,
- 18:00then what? What can we actually accomplish
- 18:02in this world if we don't even have?
- 18:04If we can't even believe in ourselves.
- 18:06Right. Well, and you're also you're
- 18:07bringing, you're also bringing up positivity.
- 18:08And I, if I had to give a thorough note, just real quick
- 18:11to give you a more complete answer to your question.
- 18:13It's understanding that when you when you study the data Chang or
- 18:18Logos, which is the Greek version of that or what Christ's
- 18:21message to the world was. It all starts with everything in
- 18:25the universe is mental and by the time you speak it, that is a
- 18:28form of creation. You're literally taking a
- 18:31thought form and you're putting out into the world.
- 18:33So are you evaluating your creations that start with mental
- 18:38thoughts that become the spoken word and take on an energy and
- 18:42most people they don't. I've decoded in my own research
- 18:46and a seven-year journey I went on and I wrote a book about it
- 18:48called Limitless, that there's ultimately 10,000 ideas that
- 18:51make up your mindset. When we say mindset, what do we
- 18:54mean? We mean 10,000 ideas that make
- 18:56up your paradigm, and 65% of them are rotten.
- 19:00I can't, I'm not good enough. I can't do it.
- 19:01It's going to be tarred. It's too difficult.
- 19:03My genetics don't support me, whatever.
- 19:05There's all this bullshit that we think and that we speak.
- 19:07And so going on a journey where you start establishing an
- 19:11awareness of what you're saying. And if you can't do that, you're
- 19:15going to call things in a creation that you don't like
- 19:17because everything in your life that you don't like is your
- 19:19creation. You somehow called it in or you
- 19:21tolerated it. And victimhood wants you to
- 19:23point at somebody else or yourself as a martyr and not
- 19:26take true responsibility. So I think the third thing is
- 19:30become aware of all of your thoughts.
- 19:32Become aware of all your words. You're having 70 to 80,000
- 19:34thoughts a day. You're speaking a lot of them.
- 19:37You're, you're thinking 1,000,000 words.
- 19:39If you give yourself permission to think shitty thoughts, you're
- 19:41going to produce shitty outcomes.
- 19:43And if you give yourself permission to think beautiful
- 19:45thoughts, you'll get beautiful outcomes.
- 19:47Because really what you're getting in life is not what you
- 19:49want, it's what you put energy into.
- 19:51And so when something bad happens and you put energy into
- 19:53that, you get more of that bad thing.
- 19:54So I just understand the basic relationship of creationism that
- 19:58in the beginning was the word, and the word said it's dark out
- 20:02there, let there be light. It was thought, then it was put
- 20:05into creation through speech and then it could be what creation
- 20:08is happening. This saying with us, Hannah,
- 20:11that everything we think and we speak is a form of creation.
- 20:14So if you don't like your results, maybe change your
- 20:15thoughts in your speech. I love that you said that.
- 20:18I'm actually giving a talk this week on Thursday on energetic
- 20:21intelligence and how to transform your business and your
- 20:23life by changing your energy. And it all starts with the
- 20:25awareness and my coach that I had hired that taught me this
- 20:29concept. He says the outcome can only be
- 20:31as great as the energetic state in which you initiate the
- 20:35action. And so just like you said, if
- 20:36you're starting with negative thoughts, negative energy,
- 20:40negative intent, you're regardless of how smart or
- 20:43strategic you think you are, you're going to get low quality
- 20:45outcomes. And so if we can have that
- 20:47energy and the ability to not only have the awareness of the
- 20:50energy, because so many of us don't even realize that we're
- 20:52operating with this negative energy inside.
- 20:55We just think it's life as usual, but it's really toxic,
- 20:58low vibrational, low frequency energy.
- 21:01And then we wonder why we're getting all these negative
- 21:03results when everything that's coming out of our mouth or in
- 21:06our brain is negative and we don't have the ability and the
- 21:09capability that is a trained skill to be able to catch it
- 21:12right away. Well, it's a thought before it
- 21:14becomes an action or, you know, words or an emotion that
- 21:19eventually becomes an action and it's going to continue to
- 21:21attract low quality outcomes in business and in life.
- 21:24Yeah, I agree that with that completely.
- 21:27How have you managed the, you know, I talked to, I'm friends
- 21:31with Jamil Domsi and we always get into these deep
- 21:33conversations of both business growth and crazy goals and then
- 21:37this inner work and groundedness and spirituality, connection,
- 21:41calmness and all this stuff. How have you balanced in your
- 21:45life? The, the, the, I guess both of
- 21:51those, right, the entrepreneur success, like I'm a driver, CEOI
- 21:55have all these big goals. And then the calm grounded.
- 21:59I want to be present with my wife, present with my kids,
- 22:01present with myself, have that time to focus on the things that
- 22:05are fulfilling, but not necessarily excellent, right?
- 22:08How do you manage that? So I I've got two practice that
- 22:12I think that lean that that help resolve that for me.
- 22:15The first one is I believe that a brain needs office hours
- 22:19because a, a mind is a tool. But if you only operate from
- 22:23this tool and you're always thinking, it will keep you from
- 22:25being present. In other words, you can't think
- 22:28and be present at the same time. So for example, if I'm with my
- 22:31wife and I'm thinking I'm actually not with her.
- 22:34If I'm with my my baby girl and I'm thinking I'm not with her.
- 22:38If I'm sitting next to her and we're doing anime together and
- 22:41I'm cuddling her, but my mind is thinking about something else,
- 22:43I'm actually not with her. I'm awaiting her and everything
- 22:47we do is either towardsing ourselves towards someone or
- 22:49it's a weighing them. And it happens energetically at
- 22:52an unspoken level first and it happens with my mind.
- 22:56And so give your brain office hours, especially if you wake up
- 22:59early in the morning and your brain turns on and then you have
- 23:01a hard time going to bed at night.
- 23:02Your brain is still thinking. You're not a present human
- 23:04being. You're focusing on building
- 23:06something, you're leveraging a tool in excess and you're now an
- 23:09over thinker. So give it office hours and
- 23:11here's what it means. It means that outside of those
- 23:14office hours, I'm not planning, I'm not doing logistics, I'm not
- 23:17solving problems, I'm not thinking about work.
- 23:19I'm being present. I can be one or the other, which
- 23:22means that when I'm with a loved one, I'm giving them my full
- 23:25presence. I'm not thinking in the
- 23:27background and working on something.
- 23:29I'm literally being with them. So if I was with my baby girl
- 23:32and she was sucking on a block, I might grab a block and suck on
- 23:35it. Or am I?
- 23:36If she's cooing and might COO back, it means that if I'm
- 23:39having a conversation with my teenage son that I'm fully
- 23:43engaged in that conversation and giving him a full measure of my
- 23:46presence. So that's the first thing is
- 23:47have office hours for those pesky minds that can just think
- 23:50all day long. And then it keeps you out of
- 23:52your heart. And I, and I think Tony Robbins
- 23:54says it, well, he's got a saying.
- 23:55He says in your head, you're dead.
- 23:57And I would agree with that because you can't form a
- 24:00meaningful deep relationship or a romantic relationship or deep
- 24:05rooted connection when you're thinking, you can think or you
- 24:09can connect, but you can't have both.
- 24:10The second thing that I do is have a very, very, very strong
- 24:13meditation practice. Meditation, Hannah means
- 24:16something obviously different to everyone because there's
- 24:18Transcendental Meditation and Oming and so many different
- 24:20things. For me, I'll sit down and I'll
- 24:25go into a HAPE ceremony and I've got 30 or 60 minutes a day in
- 24:29this, sometimes 90 minutes. And this is where I'm actually
- 24:32channeling my higher self, where I'm channeling God, Heavenly
- 24:35Father, Heavenly Mother Christ. And I'm bringing these
- 24:39individuals into my space. And I've learned how to connect
- 24:42deep enough with my intuition where I can sit and ask
- 24:46questions and receive answers. And I'll to make sure I don't
- 24:49have monkey mind going on. I will ask my questions out loud
- 24:53and then I will channel the answers out loud.
- 24:56And from the last three years, I've got hundreds of pages of
- 24:58notes of just inspired guidance that I've received.
- 25:01I think the epitome of the human experience outside of religion
- 25:04or spirituality is when we can be sourced to God and God can be
- 25:10sourced to us and where we can ask questions, receive answers.
- 25:14People when they stay stuck in their head.
- 25:18I was at my mastermind trip this weekend and this guy who's in
- 25:20another mastermind asked the same damn question he asked
- 25:23seven months ago on my online for me.
- 25:25He's like, should I, you know, will I increase my income
- 25:27opportunity if I'm willing to move?
- 25:29And so I said, get up here, bro. And I just closed his eyes.
- 25:31I grounded him. I said, get clear on your
- 25:33question. And here are the steps.
- 25:35When you're fully grounded and you ask and have cleared your
- 25:38mind, you can receive the answer.
- 25:39Then you have to learn how to trust the answer.
- 25:41Then you speak the answer and then you do the answer.
- 25:43When you do that, you're now living inspired or in spirit as
- 25:47opposed to living in your head. This fucker literally will only
- 25:51take you in life as far as it's ever been, so it will rob you so
- 25:55much opportunity because it's so damn linear that all it can do
- 25:58is create more of what it's given you.
- 26:00Your mind. When you operate all day from
- 26:02your mind, it has nothing new. And are we not here to meet our
- 26:05potential That is outside the comfort zone That is beyond
- 26:08where we are. So meditation is where I go
- 26:11beyond and turning off my brain. Becoming present is also how I
- 26:14get out-of-the-box as well. Yeah, yeah.
- 26:17That practice for me to change everything, just sitting in
- 26:20silence with myself and being able to connect to source and
- 26:23realize that the all the answers are inside.
- 26:25And I always struggled to connect to God or Source or the
- 26:30universe or whatever your form of the higher power is.
- 26:34And I realized when I started the meditation practice and
- 26:37started a lot of this healing work, which was a couple years
- 26:40ago, I was never sitting silent with myself.
- 26:43I never had the opportunity to even connect with God.
- 26:46And I was looking for answers outside of me, right?
- 26:48I would like pray, dear God, close this deal for me, her dear
- 26:53God, like make my, you know, Father love me more or whatever
- 26:56I was I was praying for and looking outside of me, but I was
- 27:00never actually sitting still with myself.
- 27:01And when I started that practice of stillness with myself, that's
- 27:04where just like you said, those answers started to flow with
- 27:07from within me. And I realized, OK, this
- 27:10connection to source isn't outside, it's in silence with
- 27:13myself. And and that was what changed
- 27:17everything. And another thing I read, and I
- 27:18can't remember what book it was. Maybe it was Transcend, but he
- 27:22said the easiest way to connect to source is through gratitude,
- 27:25through a grateful heart. And when we're complaining and
- 27:28when we're in low frequency energy, we can't connect to
- 27:31source because we're ungrateful and we're victims.
- 27:34And so when we can start to sit into that, what are we grateful
- 27:37for in this life? Whatever we have are is things
- 27:40to be grateful for on whatever spectrum that is.
- 27:42And we can, when we truly embody that gratitude, it helps us sit
- 27:46into that source and into that meditation and start to hear
- 27:49those internal answers that we are looking for.
- 27:52Yep, 100% beautiful. So what what's next for you,
- 27:57Chris? I mean you, You've built a real
- 27:58estate empire. You're a leader and a coach and
- 28:01a mentor. You're a father, you're a
- 28:02husband. What does success look like to
- 28:05you or what does success mean to you?
- 28:07And what is this next chapter of your journey?
- 28:10You know, I I don't really have any outward goals.
- 28:13All of the inward goals are simply to cause the actions that
- 28:17allow me to meet more of my potential.
- 28:20Right now I'm really getting ready to close down a lot of
- 28:23shop on a lot of opportunities. I'm letting things play out.
- 28:26We're putting all of our love, effort and attention into them
- 28:28and giving them the resource that they need.
- 28:29But I think the next phase of my life is going to be phasing out
- 28:33of more of an entrepreneur space or even a coaching space.
- 28:36I'm going back to becoming a student.
- 28:38I'm just, you know, I've had people pay me a quarter million,
- 28:41half, $1,000,000 a year to work with them one-on-one.
- 28:43I'm leaving that arena and in a number of places, I'm just going
- 28:48back to that student energy of just being the learner.
- 28:50It's actually one of the places that I enjoy the most.
- 28:53It's so true. The more I learn, the less I
- 28:55know. And so I'm just going, I've got
- 28:57a lot of learning that I want to do.
- 28:59I think maybe in five or ten years I'll return back as a, as
- 29:02a teacher again because right now I'm just going to go into
- 29:05the void and I'm just going to see what it has for me.
- 29:07I've got one major hoorah of a company that we just did an $11
- 29:10million funding on. It's a steel company.
- 29:12It's basically taking out the lumber industry.
- 29:14It's these really cool disruptive machinery that will
- 29:17print a house in a day and then they erect it in two days.
- 29:21And so I coming from the real estate space, you know, framing
- 29:24a house takes out a lot of trees, cost a lot of money, has
- 29:28a lot of waste, and it takes a lot of time.
- 29:30And so I found a technology that is replacing it at a discount.
- 29:34And so it's literally doing it better than lumber, faster than
- 29:37lumber, it's cheaper. And so I've got a company that,
- 29:40you know, honestly, I think it has the potential for, you know,
- 29:45you know, 10 figure valuation. And my business partner did a
- 29:48two year build on his company and built it to 32,000,000 in
- 29:50two years. We're just going to go 40X that.
- 29:52So we're going really big. I've got a 40,000 square foot
- 29:55office that my podcast studios in that is being converted to a
- 29:58steel manufacturing plant. It's happening here in Utah and
- 30:02right now we've got we're building a huge affiliate army
- 30:04where we're giving people quarter million, half,
- 30:06$1,000,000 million dollar your income jobs for basically going
- 30:10out there being affiliates and finding projects to just
- 30:12convert, you know, lumber to steel.
- 30:14So it's a great technology there.
- 30:16For me, the huge passion in it is over the next five years I
- 30:19can save a million trees, you know, mature Douglas firs,
- 30:23Pines, 35 year old trees that are busy giving oxygen as a
- 30:26planet and we're just going to let them do that.
- 30:29Meanwhile, we're using recycled steel.
- 30:31So trying to create more of a regenerative approach to how
- 30:34we're building America is what I'm taking a stand for and, and
- 30:39the company I, you know, I can already see is going to be a
- 30:41really wild success. So that's kind of one of my
- 30:43bigger hurrahs. I'll stay in the real estate
- 30:45game. It's very automated.
- 30:46My investors are enjoying, you know, 60% annualized returns
- 30:50over the last decade. So we're just going to keep
- 30:51smashing it there. But I'm just fortunate to have a
- 30:54team handle that can carry that legacy forward, help people
- 30:56continue making great money. And then meantime, you know, my,
- 31:00I'm only four years away from being an empty nester.
- 31:03And so for me, I'm just already now moving into that space of
- 31:07being the student, which is my my favorite place to operate in.
- 31:09Awesome. Well, thank you so much for
- 31:12coming on the show and we'll wrap up with one piece of advice
- 31:16that you would give to the audience listening that is on
- 31:19the mission to reach their highest potential.
- 31:22Yeah, I would tell you in the four quadrants, I call them the
- 31:25core 4, that take five years of your life and choose mastery in
- 31:29all four areas. In the game of finance, what you
- 31:33do in 40 years, you can do in 10 years or even 5 years.
- 31:37All you just need is a more aggressive game plan and I would
- 31:40recommend choosing into that. Today.
- 31:41We've got AI, there's mentors out there, there's people like
- 31:44Hannah, there's people out there that can help you achieve your
- 31:46goals a lot faster. And it's all going to come down
- 31:49to very similar skill sets, which is learning how to save
- 31:54money, not to get ahead, but to invest.
- 31:56And so you become a successful investor.
- 31:58You can invest your time, you can invest money, and you can
- 32:01acquire skills. Those are all forms of
- 32:02investment. So the first thing is take the
- 32:04next five years and just do the money game well enough that you
- 32:07can be done if you so choose #2 your body is a temple.
- 32:12Rock that temple out and learn how to take care of it.
- 32:15Over the next five years. Master your body so that you can
- 32:18re. You can reclaim the bandwidth of
- 32:21the lacking confidence and, and tearing yourself down and
- 32:24looking in the mirror and telling yourself something
- 32:26meaner maybe than you need to. You've got this one body.
- 32:28God gave it to you. Take care of it and it'll take
- 32:29care of you #3 your family. Give them the love and
- 32:33attention. Learning how to sink deep into
- 32:35deep connection. When was the last time you took
- 32:37a loved one and, and stared in their eyes for 60 seconds and
- 32:41then shared the greatness that you saw with them?
- 32:44We're all capable of deep connection.
- 32:46Go there, advocate for them and and don't live with regrets on
- 32:49the love that you can give that you're not offering.
- 32:52And then the last thing is, if you're going to have a
- 32:55relationship with God, you can do a very zombie like version of
- 32:59it. While I went to church, I did
- 33:01the spiritual practice. I'm going through motions.
- 33:02I'm checking the boxes. Or you can genuinely really
- 33:06connect with the creator of everything and create a
- 33:08relationship where you can define the most sacred
- 33:11information that you need for every area of your life that
- 33:13we've just been talking about. Take the next five years, rock
- 33:15them out because what do you do when you've mastered them?
- 33:18Well, then you don't need to be plugged into the simulation
- 33:20anymore. You can leave the matrix.
- 33:22You can figure out why you're actually on this planet and go
- 33:25live that life. That would be my advice.
- 33:28And also, I think last thing is if you guys don't follow me on
- 33:31social media and you'd like to know what some of my tools and
- 33:33resources are, I give my books away for free, my events away
- 33:35for free. You know, a lot of resources
- 33:37that can help you self actualize and become more of the person
- 33:40that you want and that you. All you have to do is go to
- 33:42freewealthgift.com and feel free to participate in anything that
- 33:47you feel will help you level up your life.
- 33:49I'm offering free game plans with my team to show you how to
- 33:51build wealth in a condensed period of time.
- 33:53Access to events or some of the books that I've written.
- 33:56Free wealth gift.com. If I have something that can
- 33:58benefit you, you can have it. Awesome.
- 34:01Thank you so much, Chris.
