🎥 DESCRIPTION
On this episode, Cam steals the show and opens up about his personal journey from being a broke youth pastor in Missouri to building an $18M real estate portfolio while living in Maui. He shares how a $15,000 hospital bill and a clear vision exercise changed everything for him, leading to bold sacrifices like moving into his in-laws’ basement and flipping their first home with no money. This is a story about vision, sacrifice, and the relentless pursuit of building a better life.
Specifically, he talks about:
• vision matters more than tactics
• sacrifice often looks like setbacks
• consistent daily actions create alignment with your vision• clear vision turned -$60K debt into an $18M portfolio
• and so much more!

| 0:00.0 | This is the Better Life podcast with your co-host, Cam Cathcart. |
| 0:05.7 | Brandon could not be here today because he is traveling. |
| 0:09.2 | So I am hosting this podcast by myself. |
| 0:12.3 | And I even have another special surprise for you guys. |
| 0:15.0 | There is no guest today. |
| 0:16.0 | So you are stuck with me. |
| 0:18.8 | But I'm excited for it. |
| 0:20.4 | I think it's going to be really good. And I think you guys |
| 0:22.6 | will really get a lot out of this podcast. And so you're going to hear a lot from me. And it's going to be |
| 0:29.0 | a lot of fun. But today, I want to start with just giving an update on my life because I haven't |
| 0:34.6 | talked to you guys in a while. And one of the really cool things that has happened over the last month is I am the new father of twins. So now I have five kids, seven, |
| 0:45.1 | six, four, and two newborns. It has been so much fun. But it's also been a lot of work, |
| 0:51.2 | a lot of sleepless nights. I am getting some gray hairs. I've got |
| 0:55.7 | bags under my eyes. It is a lot, but it is the best thing ever. I love being a dad. It's incredible. |
| 1:02.3 | But let's get to today's show. And today, I want to do something a little bit different because |
| 1:08.5 | a lot of times on this show and a lot of times when we interview |
| 1:12.8 | somebody, we're talking about something tactical. Like, how do you raise money or how do you |
| 1:19.0 | make a million dollars in the next year? Or how do you find a deal? How do you negotiate with |
| 1:24.4 | sellers? And we're talking about a lot of tactical things. |
| 1:33.1 | And today's show is not going to be tactical because here's what I believe. |
| 1:37.0 | I think most of you already know what to do. |
