  • What Running a Top PR Firm Taught Me | John Truscott | TDES

    What Running a Top PR Firm Taught Me | John Truscott | TDES
    Nov 28 2025
    When John Truscott left politics to build his own PR firm, he didn’t realize how heavy the pressure would hit.

    Lost clients. Bare-bones months. Thirty paychecks depending on him.

    And he learned very quickly: if you won't show up, your business won't either.

    He remembers taking heat for voicing unpopular opinions as the governor of Michigan’s press secretary, and later navigating an unlikely merger with a competitor-turned-friend.

    Because success doesn’t come from playing it safe.

    Success comes from walking away at the right moment, having the uncomfortable but necessary conversations, grinding through calls, and remaining steady when cycles get brutal.

  • The Truth About Being A Young Founder | Ethan Lloyd | TDES

    The Truth About Being A Young Founder | Ethan Lloyd | TDES
    Nov 21 2025
    Ethan Lloyd built a marketing agency from scratch, landing major gigs with Detroit’s city government and helping both local florists and big names tell their story.

    He started starting small... $250 a month jobs and no experience.

    Then the real stories came out.

    The moment he realized he had no idea who supported or hated him.
    Why he’d rather work with real people, not liars or the ego-driven.
    And what kept him going when quitting felt like the only option.

  • Why Most Creators With Millions of Followers Are Still Broke | Manager Jon | TDES

    Why Most Creators With Millions of Followers Are Still Broke | Manager Jon | TDES
    Nov 14 2025
    Manager Jon slept on an office floor for eight months, tasting carpet between dreams and the grind. He built studios from scratch. Connected with creators who had millions of followers but were still broke. Turns out “followers” don’t pay bills. Brand clarity and speaking real numbers do.

    Top takeaways:
    -Break the silence about your struggles.
    -Track what your time is actually worth.
    -Build something anyone can grow inside of... even if you’re not sure how you’ll pay rent next month.

    Do you measure yourself against others, or against the version of yourself you’re fighting to become?

  • How He Survived Losing Everything... And How He Changed From It | Coach Bob Shenefelt | TDES

    How He Survived Losing Everything... And How He Changed From It | Coach Bob Shenefelt | TDES
    Nov 10 2025
    I sit down with Coach Bob Shenefelt, creator of the Visionary Forum and author of Unscatter the Chatter, and talk about the real ups and downs of entrepreneurial living.

    Coach Bob shares his stories of failure and self-discovery, including how he almost lost everything... financially and personally.

    Why do visionary leaders struggle to slow down? How can building the right team save your business? Why is identity and self-worth so tangled with what we build? If you’ve wondered if you’re the only one who struggles with doubt, burnout, and the pressure to keep going, you can't afford to miss this episode.

    I Asked the Youngest Bitcoin Millionaire If Blockchain Can SAVE Free Speech | Erik Finman | TDES
    Oct 31 2025
    What happens when your grandmother gives you $— and you put all of it into Bitcoin?
    That decision turned Erik Finman into one of the youngest Bitcoin millionaires in the world. In this episode of The Dillon England Show, we unpack his wild story: from buying Bitcoin at $10 a coin to hitting $1M at just 18 years old, and how that early win shaped his view on money, innovation, and freedom.
    We go deep on crypto, AI, censorship, and America’s future — why Erik believes blockchain technology like Optio will redefine social media, why free speech is at risk, and how decentralized platforms like Parler can protect truth in the digital age.
    This is part tech, part philosophy, and part wake-up call. We talk about:
    -How AI could make work optional (and what that means for purpose)
    -What really happened to America’s work ethic
    -The untold story of Bitcoin’s early days and his viral protest that started it all
    -The Kennedy legacy, government overreach, and COVID-era manipulation
    -The future of blockchain-based social platforms that can’t be silenced
    If you care about innovation, free speech, or the next generation of builders — this one’s worth your full attention.

  • How This First-Generation MILLIONAIRE Broke The Welfare Cycle | Dr Omai Kofi | TDES

    How This First-Generation MILLIONAIRE Broke The Welfare Cycle | Dr Omai Kofi | TDES
    Oct 20 2025
    “Fail, fail, fail”—except do it prepared. Today I’m joined by Omai Kofi—first-generation millionaire, strategist, and connector—to tear down the myths that keep people stuck. We trace her journey from welfare and odd jobs to 111 documented income streams and real ownership, including the “food-stamp card” identity shock, the 2015 pivot into investing, and how she engineered an environment that pulled her up instead of holding her down.
    Omai breaks down wealth vehicles that compound your efforts: infinite banking (using properly structured whole life to recapture dollars), real-estate equity plays (HELOCs, cash-out refis), and the principle that money should make more money than your labor. We talk heart-set vs mindset, why courage and preparation beat hype, and how to curate rooms with people who talk wealthy, act wealthy, and build durable systems.
    We also get brutally honest about accountability—including a missed mortgage payment that nuked a pristine credit score by 110 points, and the exact framework she used to reverse it without lying or blaming. If you’re tired of feast-or-famine and ready to build an affluent environment, this is your field manual: tell the truth, upgrade your circle, practice relentlessly, and let capital do the heavy lifting.
