🎙️ Chopping it Up with Philip Jayhawk Chan — The Human Longevity Show, hosted by Chris Champion

I don’t say yes to every podcast—but when the conversation covers basketball, business, discipline, and what it really takes to reinvent yourself, I show up.

🎯 In this episode, Chris and I talk about:

✨ My journey from pre-med and burnout to building Lightspeed Investing

✨ Why I’m finally training with Kyrie Irving’s coach—after 5 years of delay

✨ How basketball taught me to build in business, and why I’d buy a team just to put myself on the roster

✨ The real fuel behind entrepreneurship: purpose, not hype

✨ What Shark Tank doesn’t teach you about risk

✨ And why I see the NBA Hall of Fame as more than just a player’s dream

This one wasn’t scripted. It was real talk—about growth, grit, and giving yourself the right reasons to go all in.

🔊 Lightspeed Investing Podcast – Episode 69 is now live.
Back with us for Part 2 is Nicole Daeila of MAG Capital Partners.

In this episode, we cut through the surface-level talk and get to the real mechanics behind sale-leasebacks, food manufacturing real estate, and why boring, essential businesses might be the most durable investments in the commercial sector today.

Nicole breaks down:
🌟 Why industrial vacancy rates matter more than headlines
🌟 The structure behind MAG’s 20-year triple net lease model
🌟 How her team secures cash-flowing properties before taking investor capital
🌟 What separates MAG from large-scale institutional players despite being a “smaller” shop at $1.3B AUM
🌟 And how investors—especially those with retirement accounts—are quietly shifting into tangible, tax-advantaged assets backed by the American supply chain

If you’re still trying to understand the difference between commercial and residential real estate—this episode lays it out clearly. And if you already understand the space, you’ll want to hear how Nicole’s team is moving with precision while others are still chasing headlines.

🎙 Lightspeed Investing Podcast – Episode 67 (Part 2) | Featuring Clint Harris

There’s a stark difference between buying what looks good on paper—and building lasting value where others see decay.

In Part 2 of my conversation with Clint Harris, General Partner at Nomad Capital, we go beyond the surface and into the strategy that’s turning abandoned big-box stores, textile mills, and roach-infested warehouses into high-performing self-storage assets.

This isn’t theory—it’s applied investing at scale.

Clint outlines the three foundational principles his team uses to de-risk, scale, and consistently outperform in self-storage:

🔹 Why feasibility studies are non-negotiable
🔹 How vertical integration separates survivors from speculators
🔹 The critical importance of planning your exit before you enter

We also dig into:
— The psychology behind early vs. late-stage capital
— Structuring deals to double investor returns—tax-free
— Why cap rate projections alone won’t protect your downside
— And how disciplined execution turned a $1.5M acquisition into a $17M facility

He closes with a hard truth most investors need to hear:

“Most people are out of wood before they’ve built a single bridge off the island.”

🚨🎙️ Episode 66 is LIVE: From Cardiac Sales to $150M in Self-Storage (Part 1) with Clint Harris

Clint Harris didn’t wait for the perfect off-ramp. He built it.

After 16 years in cardiac medical sales—implanting pacemakers and consulting alongside surgeons—he knew the travel, long nights, and lack of control weren’t sustainable.

He pivoted—intentionally. First house-hacking a duplex. Then scaling to 14 Airbnbs. Eventually, converting abandoned big-box retail into climate-controlled self-storage units—now managing $150M in assets through Nomad Capital.

In Part 1 of our conversation, we unpack how Clint’s vertically integrated model transforms distressed retail into high-performing real estate that appraises at 3–4x the total cost basis.

🔹 Why banks reward occupancy over rates—and how to use that to your advantage
🔹 The self-storage math: a $1K rent increase → $240K property value bump
🔹 Why vertical integration is essential to survive today’s interest rate climate
🔹 The truth about "replacing your income" vs. buying back your freedom
🔹 What makes self-storage one of the most inflation-resilient CRE assets

Clint put it simply:
“Risk is a muscle. If you want outsized returns, you need to build it—not avoid it.”

If you’re in healthcare, burned out, or simply looking for a smarter way to deploy capital—this is a tactical episode worth your time.

🚨🎙️ New Episode Now Live: Lightspeed Investing Podcast Ep 65 - Shanan Terale (Part 1)

Most professionals stay in the lanes they were trained for.

Shanan Terale didn’t.

She’s a Columbia grad, a JD/MBA, and a corporate finance attorney in NYC who’s worked with billion-dollar family offices and Wall Street institutions. But recently—she pivoted. She stepped off the traditional track and into building something of her own.

In Episode 65, Part 1 of our conversation, Shanan opens up about what pushed her to explore entrepreneurship, why the rules of corporate law weren’t enough, and how growing up as a first-gen student from Ohio gave her a unique lens on finance, structure, and risk.

🧠 We dive into:

🔹 What most people misunderstand about family offices

🔹 The unseen weight of being “the first” in your family

🔹 Why formal education is only half the battle

🔹 What aerial arts taught her about entrepreneurship (yes, really)

This episode is for anyone who’s ever felt the pull to do more—even when the resume says you’ve already made it.

🔊 Lightspeed Investing Podcast — Episode 64 is LIVE
“Nicole Daeila’s Journey from Self-Taught Trader to PE Executive”

This week’s guest is someone who exemplifies both intelligence and intention. I sat down with Nicole Daeila, Director of Capital Markets at MAG Capital Partners, to talk through what it really takes to build sustainable wealth—not just for yourself, but for your family.

Nicole’s story is grounded in action. She started trading stocks and options while still in college—no paper trading, no hand-holding—just a strong will to figure it out. Now, she’s helping to lead one of the top private equity firms focused on industrial real estate. Her focus: food production, U.S. manufacturing, and recession-resilient assets.

What I appreciated most was her clarity.
She’s not just chasing returns—she’s designing freedom.

In this episode, we covered 🎯:

✨ How Nicole is building a 7-figure real estate portfolio to retire her parents

✨ The truth about CCIM and why it’s so difficult to earn

✨ The role of self-education vs. formal credentials in wealth building

✨ Why investing in your own skillset always comes first

✨ And how to build a real network—without pretending to be someone you’re not

If you’re serious about bridging purpose and profit—this one’s for you.
