In this episode, Ryan shares the inspiring story of Dave Chappelle and how standing firm in his values led to one of the greatest comebacks in entertainment history. After creating one of the most innovative and successful TV shows of all time, The Chappelle Show, Dave walked away in Season 3 when producers pressured him to compromise his identity. For 10 years, he was dragged through the mud by the media, called crazy, and disappeared from the spotlight. But his perseverance paid off—he later landed a $50 million deal with Netflix, which became an even bigger success. When you stay true to your core values, even in the face of criticism, the truth will eventually come to light, and success will follow. It may take time, but standing by your principles will always prevail in the end.   Stick to your values, never compromise, and always rise above.   Rise Above 🇺🇸

Ryan gets real about the impossibility of making everyone happy as both a human being and a business owner. He explains that if you aim for 100% satisfaction, you’re setting yourself up for failure and heartbreak. As your business or following grows, so does the chance that someone will be upset with you. Even with a near-perfect success rate, there will still be unhappy customers, and the same applies to your social media following—there will always be haters.   Ryan compares this to something as universally loved as ice cream—even ice cream can’t please everyone, whether it’s because someone’s lactose intolerant or simply prefers another flavor. The key is to do your best and realize that no one has a 100% satisfaction rate, no matter how hard they try. Bad reviews, complaints, and negative feedback are just part of the journey, and the bigger you get, the more likely you are to encounter them.   The lesson? Accept that you can’t make everyone happy and focus on making yourself happy.   Rise Above. 🇺🇸

In this episode, Ryan opens up about his journey to quitting weed after 30 years of smoking. He shares how the decision came after feeling that everything he wanted in life was on the other side of quitting. Ryan emphasizes that quitting wasn’t easy—it brought anxiety, anger, frustration, and even physical symptoms like insomnia and digestive issues. But as time went on, he began to see life more clearly, recognizing the improvements in his mental clarity, relationships, and focus.   Ryan’s message is simple: don’t think about quitting forever. Focus on quitting today and take it one day at a time. While the first 30 days might feel harder, the rewards start to show after that. If you feel like weed is holding you back, try quitting for 90 days, one day at a time, and see how much better your life can get.   Take it one day at a time, my friends.   Rise Above 🇺🇸

In this powerful episode, Ryan talks about the importance of having core values and high standards in life, something many people lack. He emphasizes that integrity is about staying true to your word, whether it’s positive or not, and holding others accountable to those standards. Ryan explains how people often get upset when they’re held to someone else’s standards, like when they try to match the level of someone like David Goggins, only to realize they can’t keep up. When faced with higher expectations, people might label those with standards as “assholes,” but Ryan makes it clear: if you stand for something, you can’t lower your standards just because others can’t meet them. Ultimately, it’s about sticking to your core values and not compromising, no matter what.   Adopt some standards and ride or die with them.   Rise Above 🇺🇸

In this raw and personal episode, Ryan shares a defining moment from his time in prison, just two weeks before his release. At one of the lowest points in his life, Ryan found himself in a tense situation with an inmate who tried to attack him, followed by an embarrassing moment where his fellow inmates rejected him at their table, forcing him to sit with the “outcasts.” This painful experience taught him a powerful lesson about standards: you can’t allow people who don’t align with your values or goals into your circle, as it can make you look weak and damage your integrity. Whether it’s in business or personal life, Ryan emphasizes the importance of surrounding yourself with the right people to stay strong and uphold your standards.   Keep your standards high and don’t let them sit with you.   Rise Above 🇺🇸

In this episode, I talk about how bad publicity isn’t the career-ender we often make it out to be. I share real stories from coaching calls and personal experience, showing that most people don’t care as much as we think when things go wrong. Whether it’s a bad review or social media hate, the truth is, it’s usually a small blip that doesn’t change the bigger picture. The key is to focus on your supporters, not the critics, because if people are talking about you, it’s usually a sign that you’re winning. Tune in to hear why any publicity can be good publicity and how to keep your focus where it matters. Rise Above 🇺🇸

In this episode, I’m hitting you with the hard truth: you can’t expect 2024 results with a 2022 work ethic. The world has changed, and the rules of success have changed with it. If you’re sitting around waiting for the economy to turn, for interest rates to drop, or for someone to fix the mess, you’re going to get left behind. I break down why it’s time to stop expecting handouts and start putting in 2, 3, 4 times the effort just to get ahead. It’s going to take more grit, focus, and intensity than ever before to thrive in this new reality. But for those of us willing to do the work, there’s still massive opportunity ahead. Tune in to learn how to level up your mindset and actions to make 2024 your breakthrough year, no matter the economic climate. Rise Above 🇺🇸

In this episode, I’m sharing one of my biggest fears—becoming a “used-to” person. You know the kind I’m talking about: the ones who live in the past, telling stories about what they used to be or used to do because they’ve stopped chasing greatness in the present. That’s not who I want to be, and I know you don’t either. I’ll walk you through how I turned my own “used-to” moments—like being in prison or broke—into fuel for success today. I’m here to challenge you to stop living in the past and start becoming a “right-now” motherf*cker. Everything you want is ahead of you, but you’ve got to grind for it. Let’s get to work! Rise Above 🇺🇸

In this episode, we dive deep into the power of struggle and how it can be a transformative force in our lives. Whether it’s in the gym, financially, or in everyday challenges, embracing adversity is the key to growth and success. We explore the mindset shift required to stop being victims of our struggles and instead become stronger and victorious. Learn how to “struggle well” and use life’s hardships as fuel to push past the “force of average” and reach your highest potential. Tune in for motivational insights that will challenge you to rethink how you face obstacles and chase greatness.

Twelve years ago, Ryan Stewman launched the Hardcore Closer Podcast.  At that time in his life, he was working in sales..........his whole world was sales.   The inception of the Hardcore Closer brand came during a mortgage closing at a local title company and the woman handed her card to Ryan and on it said her name and her title........."Closer."  At the time, this made Ryan laugh partly cause he was drunk and partly because "Betty" at the title company was a paper-pushing facilitator and not a true closer.  Ryan was a closer when he was in the mortgage and automotive industries.  When the salespeople couldn't get a "yes" they would send Ryan in to seal the deal.  He started working with people in the mortgage industry, and real estate helping them generate leads, build funnels, build CRMs, and taught them the systems and processes necessary to follow up like a boss, have more conversations, close more sales and make more money.  As intended, human beings evolve.  At this point in life, Ryan has become more than just a salesperson.  Sales got him to the place where he had enough experience, and proof of concept and he's taught thousands of people the strategies and tactics that helped him become a multi-millionaire.  And he kept evolving. He's written books.  Spoken on stages.  Attracted a killer staff, helped other entrepreneurs grow and scale their companies, and this has made him something different........the example, and now, a leader.  In this episode, Ryan does a deep dive into the inception of the Hardcore Closer Brand, some of the journeys he's taken along the way, and a detailed outline of what transformation looks like moving forward.  As you know, most things don't go away, they just get good.  #RiseAbove    How to Get Involved: This planet is based on an algorithm and with every positive action, there is an adverse reaction.

Michael Jones: Man of the Community and Advocate for Financial Security  Federal Regulators Force Abrupt Bank Shutdown If you're reading this, you might be freaking out a bit, especially with the Feds taking over and shutting down the Silicon Valley Bank a couple of weeks ago. But, everything you see that comes to a head is usually rooted in decisions made.....sometimes good and sometimes shit......SVBG failed due to bad decisions with cash, such as investing in Treasury bonds and not being able to give it out on demand. Banks around the world are struggling with the mismanagement of cash. The biggest banks are too big to fail, but smaller mid-market tier banks are offering safe havens for business owners to store their money. These banks use ICS and Cedar accounts to spread the money across multiple banks in a network to ensure the funds are safe Michael Jones is my personal banker and I've been working with him for years.  He is involved in the community, running for city council in McKinney, TX, managing an economic development board with a budget of $22 million, and managing a restaurant that employs adults with special needs.   What You'll Learn: People are now looking to use CDEs, ICS accounts, and other banking programs to protect their money instead of making more interest off it. Banks are tightening credit due to the pandemic and blockchain technology is being used to digitally store titles. Michael Jones is involved in the community and running for city council in McKinney, TX, managing an economic development board with a budget of $22 million, and managing a restaurant that employs adults with special needs.                                   Cash used to mean freedom for most people. It was not traceable and quite frankly, is still widely used and preferred to this day by many people. But there's an issue.....the Government can't track you the way they want to.   They want to be in your lives.  All the way in.  So, one way to control you is to control your money. Everything is tracked, accounted for, and if they have to in some cases, it will be rationed.  Right now there are a lot of people up in arms due to realizing there may be things they have to do they can't control.  This episode is going to give you a little insight into what you can expect and the reason the banks are going through a transition right now.    How to Get Involved: This planet is based on an algorithm and with every positive action, there is an adverse reaction.

Understanding the Federal Reserve and How to Protect Your Money in the Digital Age In 1913, JP Morgan and others established the Federal Reserve, a private banking institution that controls monetary policy and loans trillions of dollars to the US government each year. Banks are allowed to loan out 10 times more money than they have on hand, and larger financial institutions are buying up assets and liquidating them at prices they decide. The government is buying up assets from a tech-driven bank and media reports can easily trick people into withdrawing their money. It's better to have money in larger banks since the government will protect it, and it is important to keep track of where your money is and use silica packs to protect it if you're keeping it at home. We're headed towards a digital currency which could come with some control issues, but it looks like it's inevitable. Key Lessons Banks are allowed to loan out 10 times more money than they have on hand. Larger financial institutions are buying up assets and liquidating them at prices they decide. Protecting your money may require using silica packs if you're keeping it at home. Summary A financial expert explains how the banking system works, how it affects people and stock prices, and suggests that people stack their cash for the next six months in order to prepare for potential financial losses. In 1913, JP Morgan and other tycoons met on Jekyll Island, Georgia, to establish the Federal Reserve, a private banking institution that was a major trick on U.S. citizens. Before 1913, communication was slow, so the government wasn't able to react quickly to the Federal Reserve's decisions. The Federal Reserve is not a federal institute but tells the government how much money to print The Federal Reserve creates and controls monetary policy, loaning trillions of dollars to the US government each year. Bank of America borrows money from the Fed at a 5% interest rate, which is used to pay the national debt. Banks are able to loan out 10X more money than they have on hand by getting a "banking license" from the Fed This process has led to some banks making bad decisions with their money, and the US government has had to bail out banks twice since I've been alive. Banks are being bought up by larger financial institutions, like Blackstone and Blackrock, and then they liquidate the assets at prices they decide to give to people with large amounts of money. Smaller people with money are also receiving offers to buy assets at discounted prices, showing that the bigger play is something to be wary of The government is buying up assets from a tech-driven bank, likely as a way to control the flow of information on tech sites. People reacted to media reports of the bank's potential failure by withdrawing their money, which caused a run on the bank. People were also fooled into buying unnecessary amounts of toilet paper due to media reports This shows how easy it is for the media and government to collude. Air is the only free thing on the planet, and if there is a threat to your money, it is better to have it in a larger bank like Bank of America, Chase, or Wells Fargo, as the government will protect it if it is taken. Smaller regional banks may be at risk, so it is important to keep track of where your money is The government won't let banks fail, so if you have money in one of them, chances are you're safe. But if you're keeping cash in your house, use silica packs to avoid moisture damage. We've gone from gold to paper money as a way to make carrying large amounts of money easier, and now we're headed toward digital currency This could come with some control issues, but it looks like it's inevitable.

To become successful in sales, it is essential to put in the reps and do the work. This requires hard work and dedication, just like David Goggins who became the fittest man in the world through dedication and reps.   Alex Hormosi and Andy Frisella discussed how the speaker learned how to talk to people quickly and effectively at a young age and how to adjust his sales pitch based on what kind of car the customer was driving.  In order to become number one in the company and market, reps and reading people's facial expressions and tonalities are essential.   Key Lessons It is possible to become the fittest man in the world through dedication and reps.

Things and people are not what they seem. You have to be willing to go deep while accepting the simplicity of reality and what it is.  This comes in messages through spoken word, music, and the mere presence and appearance of another human being.  Some are born from strife, sadness, and inspiration, but many are the way they are because it's the essence of their being.  This is the 300th episode of the Hardcore Closer Podcast and this means you're in for a treat.

Waka leaves everything important on the table and none of it has to do with his successful career.  What You'll Learn:  What Waka Flocka feels about people and change  The importance of meditation Why he chose to go mostly vegan and some insights into how it's benefitted him  A profound discussion about the wasted chase of living a fast life and getting to the earth-shattering question everyone should ask themselves..........Why are they doing what they're doing?  His family and why he loves his uncles the most Some of the darkness he's encountered has reassigned his mind to a different path  How he lives his life Waka's unique view on working hard and finances  Favorite Quote:  "Getting into financial literacy stopped me from going hard as a rapper.  I made a lot of mistakes because I was hard-headed.  I couldn't put all of these people behind me on the word of the guy to my right because what if he fucks us all up?  I had to go and learn how to set up LLCs, and companies, and bring this back to my family to teach them myself."  -Waka Flocka Flame   How to Get Involved: This planet is based on an algorithm and with every positive action, there is an adverse reaction.

People have been freaking out and sliding in my DMs because they're watching the news.  No matter how many times I've repeated myself, I always get the same questions.  They always come around during really pressing times in the economy.  Remember this........the pendulum swings back and forth from good times to not-so-good times depending on your mindset and your ability to constantly keep preparing for the future.  Scarcity steps in. People freak out.  They start making erratic moves in their businesses and wonder why their clients are leaving.  I'm going to help you here.  I scoured my archives and went back to 2020 for some historical reference of where you should lean in.  This episode is transcends time and all economies.  Lean in and listen closely.  There's only one thing you can control and focus on right now................CONSISTENCY.  Consistency in the way you move.  How you work.  Daily  Weekly Monthly Without excuses.  I'm giving you the game on surviving any economy.  #RiseAbove   How to Get Involved: This planet is based on an algorithm and with every positive action, there is an adverse reaction.

I was avoiding having this conversation, but it looks like the news won't STFU about it, so on this episode, we're going to dive deep into the "R" word which will only be referenced for those who don't really know what this truly means.  The "R" word refers to recession.  You may have noticed it. Food.  Gas.  Everyday products you use have continued to climb.  Some businesses are taking advantage of it and others have to do it because in order to survive, it's a must.  The truth of the matter is, this isn't the first recession and it won't be the last.  There's the hint and therein lies the opportunity.  When people are scared, get greedy.  But you can't be greedy if you're not prepared.  This means living on less not just during a recession, but during times of abundance.  Here's something to think about.............. Recessions don't affect those who have been great conservators and stewards of their resources.  They've lived on the 70/20/10 principles along the way (The 21 Unbreakable Rules of Money), and have "saved for a rainy day."  Recessions that affect the rest of the population are one example of a "rainy day."  There is so much opportunity right now.  There's tons of money to be had if you're prepared to meet the demands of what's required from the marketplace.  Investing time in honing and crafting your skills, and making relationships by putting out content that educates, informs, and entertains people about what's really happening.  In this episode, you'll get a crash course in modern-day economics and how you can come out stronger, better, and more financially stable than most.  #RiseAbove    How to Get Involved: This planet is based on an algorithm and with every positive action, there is an adverse reaction.

Anger can strike at any time, especially in business. Referrals can be your strong point or they can be the cause of your ship sinking. Nothing makes me more upset than when you share multiple referrals and the other party has nothing for you.  Do not fall for other people's shit. This is business and when people want something bad enough they lie!  I want to address why you need to check the other parties' credentials before you start handing out referrals and I am going to give you some tips on how to protect yourself better from becoming screwed over as I have been in the past.      #RiseAbove   How to Get Involved: This planet is based on an algorithm and with every positive action, there is an adverse reaction.

There is a superpower in all of us. It’s not being able to fly, spin web, or even shoot lasers out of our eyes. Our super power is the ability to focus.  The media wants us to think that we are capable of having all of these crazy abilities, those are distractions. We need to start thinking about how our brain operates. With over 55,000 decisions made each day it can be overwhelming, but what if half of those were decisions you made were to improve your business?  I’m going to walk you through some techniques you can use to take advantage of your power and use it to become more successful. Remember focus is only controlled by you, and your thoughts.  Stay motivated, and stay hungry.    #RiseAbove   How to Get Involved:This planet is based on an algorithm and with every positive action, there is an adverse reaction.Ryan Stewman rose and overcame a life of addiction,  Imprisonment, divorce, and circumstances that would break the spirit of the average human being.

There is a variety of sales in today’s world, but the three most common ones you’ll see are Mortgages, Vehicles, and Life Insurance. We think that there is a reward for everyone , but it isn’t true. Unless you have a luxury vehicle or supercar, there really is no real value in vehicles.  The car you bought 10 years ago that was 12,000 is only now worth 2,800. Life Insurance is an investment so that once you pass your family has a little bit of money for whatever they might need it for in life. The only return of a mortgage is the only thing you will actually see an increase in with that type of investment.  I bring this up because it’s a point of positioning yourself to still make the sale. It doesn’t matter how many statistics you bring up and show them; people will make a purchase if they want to or not.  On this episode, I’m going to walk you through how to communicate to your prospects and clients with an offer they can’t refuse.  #RiseAbove   How to Get Involved:This planet is based on an algorithm and with every positive action, there is an adverse reaction.Ryan Stewman rose and overcame a life of addiction,  Imprisonment, divorce, and circumstances that would break the spirit of the average human being.

What’s coming to Million Dollar Mastermind this year? More celebrities, and more high level entrepreneurs.  I get asked every year, “What are you investing in Ryan?” Who’s the big company we should be looking to put our money into? None of them. Invest in yourself.  When you invest in yourself, it’s high risk, high reward, and when it comes to investing with other people, it becomes high-risk, unknown reward. I am going to walk you through what investing in myself did for me and how it paid off way better in the long run than any of these “get rich quick” or “triple your investment in 5 years” slogans that people throw around. The responsibility you hold for yourself is investing in yourself.  The more you invest, the larger that responsibility becomes.  #RiseAbove   How to Get Involved:This planet is based on an algorithm and with every positive action, there is an adverse reaction.Ryan Stewman rose and overcame a life of addiction,  Imprisonment, divorce, and circumstances that would break the spirit of the average human being.

Do you know what does it take to win?  You’ve got to set the objectives for yourself in order to be who you are 100% and fulfill your promises to you.  When creating your objectives you need to apply how you’re going to take action, and what it is going to take to create that vision for others.  In order for this to happen, you have to get clear and focused and come up with a plan and execute on it.  The plan?  The one that reveals the most elite version of yourself.   The one built to lead a movement.  Is this you?  You’ve got work to do.  #RiseAbove   How to Get Involved:This planet is based on an algorithm and with every positive action, there is an adverse reaction.Ryan Stewman rose and overcame a life of addiction,  Imprisonment, divorce, and circumstances that would break the spirit of the average human being.

Today’s world is filled with more greed than ever before, but what if we can change that? The world will never not have greedy people in it.  It’s one of the 7 deadly sins.   Some people have an insatiable appetite for drugs, sex, food, vanity, money and a myriad of other things.   Where greedy people go wrong is thinking they have to be so to the detriment of others by stealing from them.  We live in an abundant world.   Not everything is about money for everyone.   But, there is a growing community of people uncovering the value of giving back, and not just giving back, but giving back in transformative ways beyond money.  Giving back and helping others creates more than a connection.  When you give back to others through your time, energy, talents, and financial resources, with no expectations, you create a tidal wave of abundance back into yours.  #RiseAbove How to Connect:  Instagram Website    #RiseAbove   How to Get Involved:This planet is based on an algorithm and with every positive action, there is an adverse reaction.Ryan Stewman rose and overcame a life of addiction,  Imprisonment, divorce, and circumstances that would break the spirit of the average human being.

Holding yourself to a high level of accountability is a characteristic that seems to be fading away as time moves on, and this is because people fear being called out for not having a strong representation of character.  The reason why people fear this is the work involved in setting, elevating, and maintaining higher standards.  Ryan shares what he learned from his mentors (David Goggins 2017, and Bobby Castro- Present) about the importance of being brutally honest with yourself and completing the tasks needed to be successful.  #RiseAbove    How to Connect:  Instagram Website    How to Get Involved:This planet is based on an algorithm and with every positive action, there is an adverse reaction.Ryan Stewman rose and overcame a life of addiction,  Imprisonment, divorce, and circumstances that would break the spirit of the average human being.

It’s rare that you meet someone who has never made a bad first impression in their life. That’s because you aren’t perfect and neither is everyone else. Ryan speaks about the process it took for his now friend Kent Clothier (Real Estate Investing Expert) who is the Founder of The Boardroom Mastermind and Co-Founder of Avengers Mastermind to see who Ryan really is. The problem is there were some misinterpreted events that happened which caused a delay in the friendship.  Ryans talks about how our decisions can affect the potential opportunities that come our way if someone mistakenly views it one sided.

The number one problem people have with their mentality is moving onto the “next big thing” before finishing the previous “big thing” they didn’t finish.  It's called shiny object syndrome.  The problem with society today is there is no voice telling you that your market doesn’t have to be the best to become successful.  Ryan speaks about what the hustle was really like for him after leaving a one year prison sentence going from making over half a million a year selling mortgages (time served wasn’t related to his profession)  to washing cars. Ryan quickly learned that people never make it in this world because they can’t have the patience to become the Master in their industry which ends up leaving them as the continuous Novice.  Just because there is a low supply of leaders doesn’t mean there's a low abundance of opportunity. Ryan challenges you to step back and reflect to see if you have been making a habit and pattern out of moving and not keeping longevity, that being said it’s time to make a stand.  #RiseAbove    How to Connect:  Instagram Website    #RiseAbove   How to Get Involved:This planet is based on an algorithm and with every positive action, there is an adverse reaction.Ryan Stewman rose and overcame a life of addiction,  Imprisonment, divorce, and circumstances that would break the spirit of the average human being.
