In this episode, Adam sits down with Mike Szwed, founder of Mind Your Business Media and the strategist many know as the man behind the brand. Mike's story is a powerful reminder that purpose is often forged through responsibility, pressure, and the decision to rise when life demands more from you.

From growing up in Northeast Philadelphia to becoming a Division I athlete, a young father, and ultimately an entrepreneur, Mike shares how discipline, faith, and relentless learning shaped his journey. His path wasn't built overnight — it was built through intentional choices, adversity, and a willingness to bet on himself before everything was "perfect."

Today, Mike helps high-ticket coaches and consultants scale their businesses through automated client acquisition systems, funnel strategy, and backend sales infrastructure — allowing them to grow revenue without sacrificing their time or values. But beyond the tactics, this conversation goes deep into identity, leadership, fatherhood, and trusting the process when the pressure is on.

We dive into:
✨ Becoming a father at a young age and how responsibility sharpened his purpose
✨ Why discipline from athletics translates directly to business success
✨ The concept of value, risk, and pricing yourself before credibility exists
✨ Building a business from zero — and rebuilding after financial setbacks
✨ Faith, "God moments," and learning to surrender control
✨ What it really means to lead from behind the scenes
✨ How purpose evolves when family becomes the priority

This is a raw, grounded conversation for entrepreneurs, parents, and anyone navigating pressure-filled seasons where growth is no longer optional — it's required.

In this episode, Adam sits down with Claudio Valenzuela, founder of Cayivisions, for a grounded and intentional conversation about identity, creativity, discipline, and purpose.

Claudio's story begins long before Cayivisions. Growing up deeply connected to his Spanish-speaking, Chilean roots, he learned early how culture, language, and lived experience shape perspective. Navigating identity between worlds required awareness, adaptability, and emotional intelligence from a young age—skills that would later become foundational to his creative voice.

Creativity became an outlet early on. Long before it was a career, it was a way to process emotion, observe the world, and communicate what couldn't always be articulated. Claudio shares how those formative years—shaped by cultural nuance, responsibility, and discipline—quietly prepared him for a life built around storytelling.

Before founding Cayivisions, Claudio cut his teeth through hands-on work and early creative roles that demanded patience, precision, and humility. He didn't skip steps. He learned the craft from the ground up—understanding not just how to create, but how to collaborate, execute, and lead with intention.

Together, Adam and Claudio explore the realities behind building something lasting: choosing substance over attention, honoring where you come from, and staying rooted as opportunities grow. Claudio opens up about the internal work required to lead creatively, remain disciplined, and stay aligned—especially when your work becomes your identity.

This episode is a powerful reminder that meaningful creative work doesn't come from chasing visibility—it comes from understanding your roots, respecting the process, and building with purpose.

• Growing up connected to Chilean and Spanish-speaking roots

• Navigating identity and culture from an early age

• How creativity became a form of expression and grounding

• Claudio's early career and learning the craft from the ground up

• The discipline behind sustainable creative excellence

• Why identity must come before aesthetics

• Lessons learned from adversity, restraint, and self-awareness

• The deeper mission behind Cayivisions

• Building meaningful work without losing yourself in the process

Claudio Valenzuela is the founder of Cayivisions, a creative studio rooted in intentional storytelling, cultural awareness, and emotional resonance. His work is deeply informed by his Chilean heritage, early life experiences, and a disciplined approach to craft.

Claudio believes creativity carries responsibility. Every project is an opportunity to create connection, elevate truth, and tell stories that feel honest and human. Through Cayivisions, he continues to build a platform that prioritizes integrity, alignment, and impact over noise.

Purpose isn't discovered overnight.
It's built—through roots, discipline, and alignment.

In this episode of The Finding Purpose Podcast, Adam sits down with Franjez — a content creator, podcaster, and community builder whose journey is rooted in patience, discipline, self-awareness, and learning how to live with intention.

Known for his food content spotlighting local restaurants and culture throughout the New York tri-state area, and as the host of Talk About It with Franjez, Franjez didn't begin his career in the creative space. Before stepping fully into content and storytelling, he spent nearly a decade working as a New York State correctional officer — an experience that shaped his resilience, emotional awareness, and understanding of human behavior.

That chapter of his life eventually raised a deeper question: Was this the life he was meant to live — or simply the one he learned to survive?

Throughout the conversation, Franjez opens up about working in high-stress environments, unhealthy coping mechanisms, and the gradual realization that something needed to change. Instead of numbing the discomfort, he chose to look inward — beginning a personal development journey grounded in patience, gratitude, and accountability.

Adam and Franjez explore what it means to truly do the inner work. Franjez shares how meditation helped him respond instead of react, how gratitude became a daily grounding practice, and how being "about your word" became central to both his personal life and his brand. Books like The Four Agreements played a pivotal role in reshaping his understanding of integrity, responsibility, and self-leadership.

The episode also dives into how Franjez built his creative ecosystem — not by chasing virality, but by staying consistent and devoted. What began as a podcast expanded into food content, a studio space, and a platform supporting other creators. His approach is rooted in positivity, connection, and intention — especially when it comes to food.

Food, for Franjez, has always been about community. Raised in a home where meals were shared intentionally, he now uses food as a bridge — celebrating culture, uplifting small businesses, and bringing people together. His philosophy is simple: there's already enough negativity in the world — food should be a source of joy and connection.

Faith and spirituality are also central themes in the conversation. Franjez speaks about faith not as a label, but as something lived through discipline, patience, self-control, and love. Adam adds his own reflections on surrender and learning to trust God's will instead of forcing outcomes — a perspective that deeply aligns with Franjez's journey.

This episode is a conversation about growth, awareness, consistency, and what it really means to build a life you don't need to escape from.

• Working in high-stress environments and emotional regulation
• Patience as a learned skill
• Gratitude as a daily practice
• Meditation and self-awareness
• Integrity and being about your word
• Leaving survival mode and choosing intention
• Building a platform without chasing virality
• Food as community and connection
• Faith lived through action
• Making growth a lifestyle, not a phase
