Summary

What if the story you’re stuck in isn’t who you are… it’s just who you’ve been? In this conversation, I sit down with Jordan Belfort "The Real Wolf of Wall St", and I’ll tell you right now, this is not the interview you’re expecting. Most people know Jordan for one chapter of his life, but today we go way deeper. We talk about identity, values, and what it really takes to rewrite your story when the world keeps trying to define you by your past. And what hit me the most is this. He didn’t have to become someone new. He had to rediscover who he was before everything went off track. That is a powerful lesson for every single one of us. We also get into the truth about money, success, and the tradeoffs nobody talks about. There is a point in your life where chasing the next level has a cost, and you better start asking yourself if it is worth it. Jordan opens up about choosing ethics over easy money, even when it cost him millions. That kind of discipline and clarity is rare. We talk about building a life that is not just successful on paper, but one that actually feels right when you wake up every day. Then we shift into something every entrepreneur and salesperson needs to hear. This is a masterclass in communication and persuasion. Jordan breaks down what really makes someone influential. It is not manipulation. It is understanding people, asking better questions, mastering tonality, and building real trust. If you have ever wondered why some people instantly connect and others don’t, this part of the conversation alone is worth listening to twice. And we go into the future. AI, business, and what is coming next. Jordan is deep in the AI world right now, and what he shares about where things are headed will open your eyes. Some jobs will disappear. New ones will be created. But the people who win are the ones who adapt, who learn, and who stay ahead of the curve. The lesson is simple. If you do not disrupt yourself, someone else will. This episode is about ownership. Ownership of your story, your skills, your future, and your standards. If you are ready to stop living in your past and start building what is next, this one is for you. Key Takeaways: Why your past does not define you and how to rewrite your identity The difference between chasing money and building a meaningful life The real truth about ethical selling and influencing people the right way How tonality, presence, and communication determine your success Why becoming an expert is a decision, not a timeline The future of AI and what it means for sales, business, and entrepreneurship Why you must disrupt yourself before the world does it for you 👉 SUBSCRIBE TO ED'S YOUTUBE CHANNEL NOW 👈⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠   → → → CONNECT WITH ED MYLETT ON SOCIAL MEDIA: ← ← ←  ➡️ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠INSTAGRAM⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠   ➡️⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠FACEBOOK⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠   ➡️ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠LINKEDIN⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠   ➡️ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠X ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠  ➡️ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠WEBSITE⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠  Learn more about your ad choices.

This is the Edmiron-Miland Show.

0:05.0

All right, welcome back to the show, everybody.

0:09.0

So I'd say probably seven or eight years I wanted to have this man on the show.

0:12.0

I did his show like a million years ago.

0:15.0

And I gotta tell you guys something, I was, I don't know if a surprise is the right word, but pleasantly happy, I guess.

0:21.6

I liked him so much personally when I met him.

0:25.6

Maybe a little bit different than his character in the movie.

0:27.6

Like I really, really enjoyed his company.

0:30.6

And I consider him probably the best sales trainer there is going in the world today, number one.

0:34.6

He does a whole bunch of other things too, but his style and the way he teaches sales is probably what I'm most aligned with. But I really enjoyed his company. And I think you're going to enjoy his company today as well, because we're going to have a little bit of a different conversation than you've probably seen him on other podcasts. So here's who he is. He's the Wolf of Wall Street. That's how you really know him. But I know him as like a really good man and a great, great sales trainer.

0:55.6

Super talented. Jordan Belfort, welcome to the show. I just very nice, Ed. And I feel the same about you, obviously, on my podcast a zillion years ago. And it was one of my best, you know, performing podcasts. I don't do it. I'm so busy right now. I haven't really even done podcast in a couple of years,

1:10.7

but you were great.

1:11.6

And so it's great to be back, you know?

1:14.0

Yeah,

1:14.2

it's great to be back, you know? Yeah, it's great to be with you, brother. So, you know, I want to, you've been on every podcast. So I want to have a little bit of a different conversation with you and, um, and do stuff that like, it's hard for guy at your stature and your level for people when they listen to you to, like relate to the story at all, right? Like it's one of the great stories of all time.

1:31.6

But one of the theories I have about what holds people back is they get attached to a story

1:38.3

about themselves, something that happened when they were a kid or their divorce or a business

1:42.8

setback. They get attached to a

1:44.3

story and then or who they believe they are and then it almost just, it reconfirms the story

1:50.6

over and over again in their life. And in your case, that one window of your life is like the

1:55.7

story, right? And it's how everybody knows you. To to some extent I know it was a great thing because

2:02.3

you got notoriety from it. But I have to think there's a party that's like, all right. I was like,
