  I Wasn't Who I Said I Was, with Stephen Scoggins | Our Family Invests

  Sep 22, 20261h 16mS2

  Stephen Scoggins built and exited multiple companies, one approaching nine figures, and hosts the BUILD podcast with over 48 million views. But this episode isn't about that climb. It's about what happened after he got everything he thought he wanted and felt nothing. Stephen opens up about the season after his exit, when a comment from his son Tyler at a taco shop cracked open just how absent he'd been while being present. He walks through the Five Constraints that quietly derail founders and families (arrogance, ignorance, impatience, fear, insecurity), why his dyslexia became an operational advantage instead of a source of shame, and the jet boat moment in New Zealand that gave his upcoming book its title. Fair warning: figuring out you're not who you said you are is a lot less fun with a life jacket on. What you'll learn: Why Stephen calls his homeless-to-nine-figures story the least useful part of his journey The five internal constraints that quietly sabotage founders and families How to build a daily rhythm that protects presence without relying on willpower Why dyslexia became one of Stephen's sharpest operational tools What a stranger on a jet boat in New Zealand told him that reshaped his next chapter Subscribe to The Weekly Compass, our free weekly newsletter with short practical tips for building wealth, aligning your family, and living intentionally: https://OurFamilyInvests.com/newsletter

  The Debt Fund Strategy Behind Whitney Elkins-Hutten's $800M Portfolio | Our Family Invests

  Sep 15, 202652 minS2

  Whitney Elkins-Hutten is a partner in over $800 million of real estate and her team just crossed $560 million in loans originated through their debt fund. She breaks down the risk-tiering system she uses to sort a portfolio into cash, debt, and equity, so market volatility doesn't take her by surprise. She explains why she's valuing cash flow more than ever, how uninterrupted compounding at 9% can quietly outperform a "perfectly executed" real estate deal, and a tax mechanic on debt funds that almost nobody talks about. She also names the specific red flags to watch for in private credit right now: leverage stacking, high loan-to-value funds, and operators who cherry pick their best loans out from under investors. And apparently an $800M portfolio still leaves room for high-altitude half marathons, which might explain the discipline. How to sort a portfolio into risk tiers before the market forces you to Why uninterrupted compounding can beat a "perfect" equity deal over time The tax structure that lets debt fund income offset passive losses Red flags in private credit and debt fund deals What her $560M debt fund targets and how it's structured Why she's leaning into cash flow over growth right now Connect with Whitney Elkins-Hutten: passiveinvestingwithwhitney.com, ashwealth.com, or her book Money for Tomorrow, available on Amazon.

  The Asset Class That's Too Small For Wall Street - Katie Neason | Our Family Invests

  Sep 8, 202651 minS1

  Redevelopment sits in a strange gap. It's too small for institutional developers and too complex for passive investors, which is exactly why Katie Neason has built a career inside it. Katie is a fourth generation Bryan, Texas native who left corporate banking after missing her son's first steps, and turned that decision into a decade of flipping houses, then over ten years redeveloping her own downtown.In this episode, Katie breaks down her real first deal, a townhome project that nearly died over a five foot zoning gap, and how one blunt comment to the city ended up saving the whole thing. She also covers financing redevelopment deals, working with local governments, and why she calls this asset class "one investment, two returns." HIGHLIGHTS: Why deals between $1M and $5M are too small for institutions, too big for passive investors How to get past the gatekeeper and into a real meeting with your city planner The questions that reveal if a city actually supports your project How to de-risk your first redevelopment deal Why local investors build healthier communities than outside developers Connect with us!

  Loving Conflict: How to Fight Better in Marriage, Business, and Parenting | Our Family Invests

  Sep 1, 202644 minS2

  Anna Lecat moved to China alone at 17 with no idea where the country even was, then built her first manufacturing company there at 19 in rooms with no other women. That same skill, building trust across difference, is what she teaches now as a conflict and intimacy consultant and author of Loving Conflict. Anna joins Mike and Caroline to break down how to fight better in marriage, business, and parenting without losing the relationship along the way. She walks through how to spot conflict before it surfaces, why calming yourself comes before calming anyone else, and how her weekly family meetings (with her own three kids holding her accountable too) turned conflict into a skill instead of a threat. What you'll learn: How to notice conflict building before it boils over Why self-regulation comes first, every time How Anna earned trust with Chinese business partners at 19 The family meeting structure that teaches kids to handle conflict for life Why "loving conflict" only sounds like a contradiction What the best leaders learn from practicing how to follow Anna's line from this one is worth sitting with: every conversation you don't have still sends a bill.
