Leap Academy with Ilana Golan · From Homeless Shelter to Building a Billion-Dollar Mortgage Company | Damian Maldonado | E146 · 19 Feb 2026 podcast

These books, I think, are essential to what I've learned.

And when you know something to be a fact, it becomes easy.

And I'm definitely not afraid of rejection.

If you're not getting rejected, and you're really not even trying, really, I think a lot of people don't even try.

They fail before they try.

And I think that's the norm.

Yeah, I agree with what you said.

I don't think everybody should be an entrepreneur.

I mean, the pressure is stressful.

People think it's very easy and it's not because you have a lot of weight on your shoulders, especially if you have employees and you're building something.

It's nice to be able to clock out and go home and you're doing your own thing.

You don't have to have that thing going on in your head all the whole time.

So for me, I just think a lot of the books I read and the people I admired, they started businesses.

And I still believe that you don't really need the business to be successful.

All great companies have a lot of great teams and a lot of millionaires and billionaires that will help build that company without being these founders or CEOs.

So there's so many different ways to make it in this world.

But for me, I didn't know radio at the time.

I knew telemarketing a lot.

So the way I looked at it, you know, back then we paid $10 an hour.

So you get one telemarketer, four to six hour shifts.
