  • POWC # 873 - The Right Kind of Stress
    Jun 30 2026
    In this solo episode of Pillars of Wealth Creation, Todd explores the role stress plays in personal and business growth. Drawing a comparison to athletes who intentionally challenge their bodies through training, he explains that entrepreneurs also need periods of healthy stress to build resilience, improve, and reach new levels of success. However, Todd emphasizes that living in a constant state of stress isn't productive—if you're always overwhelmed, it's a sign that something needs to change. He also touches on the importance of effective communication, reminding listeners that great leaders ask thoughtful questions and spend more time listening than talking.

  • POWC # 871 - Does the $8 Starbucks Really Matter?
    Jun 16 2026
    In this solo episode of Pillars of Wealth Creation, Todd tackles a common complaint: wages aren't keeping up with the cost of living. While rising expenses are a reality, Todd challenges listeners to look beyond the factors they can't control and focus on the choices they can. He explores whether small daily expenses—like an $8 Starbucks—actually make a difference and shows how saving just $3,000 per year can compound into significant wealth over time. This episode is a reminder that financial success isn't just about what happens to you—it's about how you respond and the actions you take to improve your situation.

  • POWC # 867 - Understanding Market Cycles and Investment Timing
    May 19 2026
    In this solo episode of Pillars of Wealth Creation, Todd discusses the idea of timing the market and how investors should approach different market cycles. He explains that many people focus too much on short-term market movements instead of looking at the overall cycle. While timing the market can be important, Todd warns against becoming so focused on finding the “perfect” time that it prevents you from taking action. Todd also talks about understanding where you are in the current market cycle and creating strategies that fit those conditions. Successful investors learn how to adjust their approach, stay informed, and make intentional decisions rather than reacting emotionally to short-term changes.
