Brandon Carter grew up on the South Side of Chicago, was sent to military school, watched his father build and lose a multi-million-dollar business, then built his own seven-figure online fitness company from scratch. In this episode, Brandon sits down with Grant to break down the rules he lives by: how to make failure impossible, why most people waste more time than they realize, how he built a fitness business before social media made it easy, and the one decision from Alex Hormozi that tripled his revenue.
They also get into the side of success people do not talk about enough: why your environment determines so much of your future, how to avoid spreading yourself across too many businesses, why confidence is not the same as courage, what real masculinity looks like, the habits and vices that hold ambitious men back, his approach to managing bipolar disorder, and the exact fitness framework he gives Grant to put on muscle. This is a conversation about discipline, money, fatherhood, health, and becoming somebody your kids can admire.
