Too many people are trying to start a business… without ever experiencing one.
In this episode of Between the Winds, we break down why real-world experience matters more than information, and how being in the right rooms can completely change your perspective on business, money, and growth.
This isn’t about courses, quick wins, or shortcuts…
It’s about understanding what actually happens behind the scenes before you try to lead.
If you’ve ever felt stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure why things aren’t working — this conversation might be the shift you need.

Everyone wants to be a coach.
Everyone has a course.
Everyone made $100K last month.
But… did they really?
In this episode, we have a real conversation about the coaching industry, fake experts, and the dangerous trend of “playing rich” on the internet.
This isn’t about hating on course creators.
This isn’t about attacking entrepreneurship.
It’s about one thing: expertise.
If you’re teaching real estate — have you actually closed deals?
If you’re teaching business — have you actually built one?
If you’re selling dreams — are they verifiable?
We break down:
Why “faking the math” is hurting the community
The difference between scrappy hustling vs structured business
Why most people online aren’t making what they say
Why expertise should come before monetization
And why playing rich might be worse than being broke
This episode is uncomfortable — but necessary.
If you’re building something real, this conversation will resonate.
If it triggers you… you might want to ask why.

Are we being too harsh — or is this the truth nobody wants to say?
