    The American Dream Got Hijacked… Here's How Smart Families Are Taking It Back with Rebecca Irey
    2026/04/13
    In today's EPIC episode, I have the pleasure of interviewing, Rebecca Irey, Founder of Blue Skye Financial. Everyone keeps saying the American Dream is broken. But let's be honest… people didn't suddenly stop working hard. The system stopped working for them. Rebecca Irey is the founder of Blue Skye Financial and a financial advisor on a mission to help women break free from financial dependence and confusion. She works with women, families, and entrepreneurs to design tax-efficient retirement strategies and long-term wealth plans that prioritize independence and legacy. Rebecca believes financial literacy is power and that women deserve a seat at the head of the financial table. Blue Skye Financial is a firm on a mission to flip the financial script for families, retirees, women, and business owners who are tired of playing a rigged money game. Instead of depending on fragile systems like Social Security Administration benefits, rising taxes, and mountains of debt, they're teaching people how to build tax-efficient wealth, protect their legacy, and design a future that actually belongs to them. Rebecca and her tearm aren't simply about money. They're about freedom, family, and legacy. If you've ever wondered whether there's a smarter way to create wealth without being trapped by the system… this episode might just change how you see your financial future. Because wealth isn't about what you have. It's about what you're able to do with it.

  • Clarity Is a Weapon: How One Veteran Turned Chaos Into a Multi-Million-Dollar Impact with Chanda Coston

    Clarity Is a Weapon: How One Veteran Turned Chaos Into a Multi-Million-Dollar Impact with Chanda Coston
    2026/03/09
    In today's episode, Chanda Coston shares a powerful message. Here's a message from Chanda to YOU! Business Strategist • Speaker • CEO of Chanda Co. • U.S. Navy Veteran I help entrepreneurs in the third quarter of life bring their dreams to life and build profitable, purpose-aligned businesses with clarity and confidence. I'm Chanda Coston — and I know what it feels like to rebuild from scratch. A U.S. Navy Veteran with over 20 years of leadership and project-management experience, I've led large-scale government and logistics operations, managed high-stakes deployments, and developed systems that have saved the U.S. Navy over $24M. But long before that, I rebuilt my life from profound hardship — including poverty, early motherhood, domestic abuse, and a life-changing turning point in young adulthood that forced me to choose who I would become. Those experiences became the foundation of my work today. I transformed my story into a blueprint for clarity, strategy, and sustainable success — and now I help women do the same. My clients are high-capacity, purpose-driven women (especially 40+) who are ready for more, but exhausted by confusion, overwhelm, or lack of structure. Together, we replace chaos with clarity, realign purpose with strategy, and build businesses that honor their faith, capacity, and legacy. Through my signature Build to Blueprint™ accelerator, the Momentum Mastery Collective, and my clarity-driven frameworks, I guide entrepreneurs to move from guesswork to growth — and from ambition to predictable, purpose-aligned results.
