Raj Dua opens up about losing over $2,000,000 in a massive investment scam and how that devastating loss became the foundation for rebuilding his faith, his mindset, and his business — stronger than ever before. From growing up in a Christian home to navigating pride, betrayal, forgiveness, and entrepreneurship, this conversation reveals the emotional and practical lessons that reshaped Raj’s life and leadership. We dive into what real stewardship looks like, how founders must invest in themselves first, and why sustainable business scaling beats chasing fast money. Raj breaks down the dangers of “passive income” traps, the truth about hiring A-players vs B-players, how to rebuild after financial loss, and the mindset needed to operate at a high level without burning out.INSTAGRAMhttps://www.instagram.com/antoniovaglicajrhttps://www.instagram.com/momentumshiftpodhttps://www.instagram.com/rajdua_Tik Tok https://www.tiktok.com/@momentumshiftpod_CHAPTERS: 00:00 – Prayer & introduction to Raj Dua02:10 – Growing up Christian & early mindset around success05:30 – Pride, achievement & hitting a breaking point in college09:15 – Discovering faith during failure12:40 – Building his first businesses15:10 – The $2,000,000 investment scam revealed20:30 – Realizing it was all gone23:50 – Carrying the weight of family & friends losing money27:10 – The struggle to forgive31:40 – Why forgiveness changed his future35:00 – Rebuilding without fear38:25 – Shifting from chasing money to creating value41:20 – Why investing in yourself is the highest ROI45:10 – The danger of “passive income” thinking48:50 – Hiring A-players vs B-players52:30 – Leadership accountability & delegation56:20 – Over-systemizing businesses (what he learned)59:20 – Travel lifestyle while scaling companies1:03:10 – Preparing for fatherhood & redefining success1:07:20 – Sustainable scaling vs fast growth1:10:30 – Final mindset lessons & encouragement#EntrepreneurPodcast #RajDua #FaithAndBusiness #MillionDollarLesson #MindsetShift #BusinessMotivation
