    1+ Billion Views: 2025 Viral Growth Strategies That Build Wealth with Cary Jack
    May 9 2025
    If you’re an entrepreneur (or want to be), you can’t afford to keep posting and ghosting. You need to build a brand, grow a tribe, and make your message move people.And guess what? That all starts with you—your authenticity, your story, and how you show up online.I just got back from an EPIC private mastermind at my homie Garrett Gunderson’s house in Salt Lake City— the New York Times bestselling author and founder of Wealth Factory. And let me tell ya, the viral secrets these powerhouse entrepreneurs dropped were pure gold.We laid it all out—from building real wealth to telling the truth online to making your content go viral (without a big team or big budget).So here’s the download—straight from my mastermind notes—to help YOU Happy Hustle smarter, not harder.Segment 1: “Wealth Starts From Within” – Garrett GundersonLet’s get real—wealth isn’t just about stacking Benjamins.Garrett dropped this truth bomb: “Grow yourself before you grow your wealth.”So many entrepreneurs skip the meaning for the money. They chase outcomes, but forget the process. Garrett’s concept?Life design is the foundation of sustainable wealth.Here’s what hit home:Build your Human Life Value. Want more money? Add more value.Money is a reason, not the reason. Let that sink in.Design a meaningful life before you build your business model.Journal prompt: What does true wealth mean to YOU? (Seriously—try this.)Happy Hustle Hack:Don’t build a business that drains your soul. Focus on impact, alignment, and fulfillment FIRST. That’s the real flex. Segment 2: “Tell the Truth, Build the Tribe” – Sean WhalenIf you’ve seen Lions Not Sheep, you know Sean doesn’t hold back.His strategy? Keep it 100% real.When I asked him, “How do you know what to share?”, he looked at me and said, “Everything.” Here’s what I took away:Authenticity attracts. Share your scars and your journey.You’ll be judged anyway, so share what’s TRUE.Real > Polished. Activated energy > high production.Be polarizing. You’re not pizza—you don’t need to please everyone.Sean built a multimillion-dollar brand just speaking into his iPhone. No camera crew. No fancy edits. Just TRUTH.Over 1M garments sold, billions of views, and 51k+ coaching clients.Happy Hustle Hack:Challenge yourself—30 days of radical truth-telling on social. Reels, long-form posts, whatever. Build that trust. That’s what creates traction.Segment 3: “Make a Movement, Not Just a Post” – Warren PhillipsWarren aka the Non-Toxic Dad is on a mission—literally. He’s got 880k followers in 2 years, but it’s not because of trends.It’s because he’s real, consistent, and deeply connected to his why.He shares 3 times a day, 6 days a week. But he didn’t start there. He began with 3 posts a week. Progress, not perfection.Here’s the sauce:Authenticity + Consistency = The Algorithm’s Best Friend.First 5 seconds matter. Hook hard.Be relational, not transactional.Talk about what you LOVE. Share your quirks.Track your metrics, tweak what’s not working.Educate. Entertain. Empower. (The 3 E’s of content that hits.) Happy Hustle Hack:Batch your content. Plan on Sundays. Use your quirks, not just scripts. And remember: A thousand true fans can make you millions. As someone who’s built the Happy Hustle movement—anti-grind, pro-life balance—I’m here to say:Stop trying to fit in. Start standing out by showing up as YOU.Whether it’s podcasting, content creation, or just telling your story, your vibe will attract your tribe.Bonus tips from the mastermind:Humor increases memory retention by 3x. (Use it!)Text-message style headlines get clicks.Sell privately, give value publicly.One idea per video.Your content is your 2025 business card. Make it soulful, smart, and you.Entrepreneurship in 2025 isn’t about chasing trends.It’s about leading movements, being unapologetically YOU, and using social media to serve—not just sell.Connect with Cary!https://www.instagram.com/caryjack/https://www.facebook.com/SirCaryJackhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/cary-jack-kendzior/https://twitter.com/thehappyhustlehttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFDNsD59tLxv2JfEuSsNMOQ/featured Get a free copy of his new book, The Happy Hustle, 10 Alignments to Avoid Burnout & Achieve Blissful Balance https://www.thehappyhustle.com/bookSign up for The Journey: 10 Days To Become a Happy Hustler Online Coursehttps://thehappyhustle.com/thejourney/Apply to the Montana Mastermind Epic Camping Adventurehttps://thehappyhustle.com/mastermind/“It’s time to Happy Hustle, a blissfully balanced life you love, full of passion, purpose, and positive impact!”Episode Sponsors: If you’re feeling stressed, not sleeping great, or your energy’s been kinda meh lately—let me put you on to something that’s been a total game-changer for me: Magnesium Breakthrough by BiOptimizers.

  • The Relationship RESET: How to Attract, Reconnect, and Thrive in LOVE with Marriage and Family Therapist, Author, Podcaster, Dene Logan

    The Relationship RESET: How to Attract, Reconnect, and Thrive in LOVE with Marriage and Family Therapist, Author, Podcaster, Dene Logan
    May 6 2025
    What if everything you’ve learned about love and relationships is only scratching the surface?Let’s be real—today’s dating and relationship landscape is confusing AF. With tech distractions, shifting roles, and a world that’s constantly hustling, finding deep, meaningful connections feels more complicated than ever. Masculine and feminine energies are out of whack. Men feel unsure of their roles. Women are rising into power, and society hasn’t quite caught up with how to balance it all.That’s why I had to bring Dene Logan to The Happy Hustle Podcast. Dene is a licensed marriage and family therapist, an author, and a podcaster who’s been in the trenches helping couples figure this stuff out. And in this episode, we unpack everything you’re not being taught about relationships, self-discovery, and the energies that shape your love life.This convo goes way beyond “relationship advice.” We talked about the deep stuff—how people are seeking fulfillment outside themselves, how modern dynamics have shifted, and why couples often wait until things fall apart before asking for help. Dené broke down how self-awareness and healing are the real secrets to attracting the right partner. And she even dropped some wisdom about celibacy being a tool for growth, which, let’s be honest, most people aren’t even thinking about when they’re out there swiping left and right.One thing that hit home was how love has been devalued in today’s hustle culture. We chase money, success, followers—but forget that relationships are sacred. Dene reminded us: real relationships require intention, mindfulness, and communication. Not just when things go bad—but every damn day.We also got into some fire convo around masculine and feminine energy—and before you roll your eyes or think it’s all woo-woo, listen up. These energies aren’t about gender. They exist in all of us. The masculine craves direction, purpose, and trust. The feminine wants to be seen, to feel flow, and to be held in presence. The problem is, most of us were never taught how to honor and balance both.So now we’ve got dudes confused about how to show up. Women stepping into their power and getting labeled “too much.” And couples who love each other, but feel disconnected because no one taught them how to communicate their needs and hold space for each other’s growth.Dene and I also touched on the sneaky issues wrecking intimacy these days—like porn addiction, lack of presence, and trying to force traditional roles that don’t work anymore. It’s wild, man. In a world where you can connect with anyone instantly, more people than ever feel alone. And the truth is, community and honest, face-to-face connections are the antidote.One of the things I loved most about this convo is that it’s not about being perfect. It’s about being conscious. Dené says the couples who make it long-term aren’t the ones who avoid conflict—they’re the ones who keep showing up with curiosity, gratitude, and a willingness to grow. Instead of nitpicking your partner’s flaws, focus on what they do well. Watch how fast the energy shifts when appreciation becomes the default.She also reminded me that longevity in a relationship doesn’t equal success. Just because you’ve been together for 10 years doesn’t mean you’re aligned or fulfilled. Real success is about shared vision, mutual respect, and daily efforts to connect, not coasting through out of habit or fear.We even got into how celibacy, for some, can be a reset. A way to cut the noise and figure out what you want, who you are, and what kind of energy you’re bringing to the table. It’s not about punishment—it’s about powerful clarity.And you know I had to ask her about what makes love last. Her answer? Growth. If you’re not growing, together or individually, the relationship stalls. Personal development fuels relational development. And when both people are doing their inner work? That’s when the magic happens.This episode is a must-listen if you’re an entrepreneur trying to build your empire and nurture a meaningful relationship at the same time. Because the truth is—you can’t pour into your business if your personal life is draining you. And honestly, what’s all that success for if you don’t have anyone to share it with?So if you’re tired of surface-level connections… if you’re wondering why the spark is fading… or if you’re just ready to understand how to show up more powerfully in your relationships—this episode is your guide.We get into the juicy stuff—real stories, practical insights, and tools you can use right now to deepen intimacy, grow through challenges, and stay aligned with your truth.It’s time to bring more depth, more awareness, and more sacredness into your relationships. Because love isn’t a distraction from the hustle—it’s the fuel that keeps your soul in the game. In this episode, we cover:00:00 Introduction to ...

  • The 3-3-3 Daily Habit That Changes Everything with Cary Jack

    The 3-3-3 Daily Habit That Changes Everything with Cary Jack
    May 2 2025

    You want more abundance, stronger relationships, better sleep, and real fulfillment—but here’s the truth: it’s not about doing more, it’s about feeling more… grateful.

    I used to grind hard—building a business, chasing success, but feeling empty. Burnout hit me like a truck. What changed everything? Daily gratitude.

    According to a Gallup Workplace study, teams led by grateful leaders have higher morale and lower turnover.

    And you know what eats profit faster than a bad month? Employee churn. Retaining your team saves serious money.

    Gratitude also helps you:
    Attract aligned clients (and repel energy vampires)
    Build loyalty (try handwritten thank-you cards—game over)
    Create a team culture where people feel seen and valued
    The ROI on gratitude? Off the charts.

    Here’s the game-changer I use every single morning. I call it the 3-3-3 Ritual:
    Write down 3 things you’re grateful for
    List 3 people you appreciate
    Celebrate 3 wins (big or small) from yesterday

    That’s it. Simple. Fast. Effective.
    You can jot it in your journal, type it into your notes app, or even record it as a voice memo. But trust me, doing this daily will shift your frequency—and as the Law of Attraction says, like attracts like.

    Gratitude also helps in leadership and business. Grateful teams perform better. Grateful leaders build loyal clients. It’s not fluff—it’s strategy.

    So if you’re chasing goals but still feel off, try the 3-3-3 ritual this week. Gratitude isn’t just a good vibe—it’s a frequency that attracts more of what you want.

    Now go out there, write those gratitudes down, and Happy Hustle your dream reality.

  • 2025 Social Media SCALING Secrets and How to Leverage AI for Massive Business Growth with Founder and Co-CEO of Media Scaling, Logan Forsyth

    2025 Social Media SCALING Secrets and How to Leverage AI for Massive Business Growth with Founder and Co-CEO of Media Scaling, Logan Forsyth
    Apr 29 2025
    Is your social media strategy helping you win… or keeping you invisible? Let’s face it — if you’re not using social media to grow your business, you’re leaving serious money on the table.But just posting random content isn’t enough anymore. The platforms have evolved. The algorithms are smarter. And attention spans? Yeah… they’ve shrunk down to TikTok length. So, how do you cut through the noise?In this fire episode of The Happy Hustle Podcast, I sat down with content king Logan Forsyth, and we dropped gold on how entrepreneurs can use social media to drive real business growth, not just likes and follows.From using AI to build your biz, to why your personality is your secret weapon, to understanding how sub-accounts can 10x your reach — this convo is loaded with practical, tactical insights.Let’s break down the biggest takeaways and how YOU can use them today. Logan said it best: “Social media is the new website.”When people hear about you, they don’t Google your name. They check your Instagram, YouTube Shorts, or TikTok. That’s your digital storefront.And if it looks messy, outdated, or full of fake engagement — bye Felicia.Your content is your credibility. And quality = currency. Here’s the truth: People don’t follow brands, they follow people.If your content doesn’t show YOU — your vibe, your voice, your story — it’ll flop faster than an unseasoned startup pitch. Logan shares this one strategy, but most entrepreneurs don’t even think about it:Sub accounts.Instead of trying to be all things to all people on one page, you create niche-specific accounts tied to your main brand.Why?Test different styles without messing up your main gridHit targeted audiences with laser-focused contentCreate more volume without losing qualityThink of it like this: One brand, multiple entry points.This episode is packed with stories, laughs, and serious strategy.Logan shares how he’s helped businesses scale content without burnout and how YOU can use AI + short-form content to dominate your niche.Social media isn’t just a “nice to have” anymore — it’s a business necessity.And if you play it right?It’s a lead gen machine, brand builder, and growth engine all in one.So don’t just post and hope.Build a strategy. Use your voice. Leverage AI. Focus on quality.And let your social media work for your business, not the other way around.In this episode, we cover:00:00 Introduction to Social Media Mastery02:53 The Importance of Personality in Content05:55 The Sub Account Strategy for Growth09:03 Scaling Content Creation Effectively11:54 Leveraging AI in Content Creation15:00 Navigating Social Media Algorithms17:57 Practical Tips for Social Media Success20:41 The Power of Viral Content23:35 Leveraging AI for Business Growth32:02 Navigating the Challenges of Fake FollowersWhat does happy Hustlin mean to you? Forrest says it means to truly love what I do. Like I love to work. And so if I didn't love it, I wouldn't work all the time, but it's what I love. And there's a lot of, there's not much else that I would rather do. and it's because of that purpose and that enjoyment aspect. And I find myself extremely lucky for that to be the case.

Forrest isn’t just a startup guy—he’s an exit guy. After successfully building and exiting multiple businesses, he took a big step back and asked: What really matters?That led him to co-found Kineon, a company using red light therapy to give people safer, smarter solutions for managing pain. No pills. No surgeries. Just science-backed, preventative wellness tech that works. But what’s wild is how Forrest connects the dots between entrepreneurial strategy and personal health. We also get into how Forrest evaluates whether a company is built to scale or just spinning its wheels. Some of the gems:Are you in the right part of the supply chain?Are you investing in IP that drives value?Are your systems supporting scale or just surviving chaos?And the biggie: Are you building a business that serves your life or one that drains it?Because at the end of the day, if your business isn’t aligned with your mission and wellbeing, it’s just another job.

  • Work Less, Live More: How I Built a Dream 2.5-Day Workweek with Cary Jack

    Work Less, Live More: How I Built a Dream 2.5-Day Workweek with Cary Jack
    Apr 18 2025
    What if I told you that working just two and a half days a week could actually be your new normal? More time with your family, more energy for your passions, and more freedom to live—without sacrificing your income or impact. Sounds wild, right? But it’s possible—and in this episode of the Happy Hustle Podcast, I’m breaking down exactly how I pulled it off. First things first: I didn’t start here. I used to grind nonstop—100+ hour workweeks, chasing big goals in the big city, feeling burned out and unfulfilled. Eventually, I hit a breaking point and knew something had to change. That’s when I started to design my life on purpose. I created a weekly structure, tested out new systems, and got clear on what actually mattered. Over time, that led me to working just 2.5 days a week—with more results, more happiness, and more balance. Here’s how it works: It’s not just about the structure—it’s about the systems. I use time-blocking religiously and follow Parkinson’s Law: work expands to the time you give it. So I limit tasks on purpose. I use the Pomodoro technique—45 minutes of deep work, 15 minutes of rest. Apps like Sunsama and Notion help me plan my day with intention. I set just three “Most Valuable Tasks” each day and focus only on those. The rest? Either gets scheduled for later or let go.Delegation and automation are non-negotiables. I ask myself, “What would break if I stopped doing this?” If the answer is nothing, I cut it. For what’s essential but not in my zone of genius, I delegate using the 10-80-10 rule: 10% to set it up, 80% delegated, 10% to review. I rely on tools like Zapier and an organized team to automate as much as possible. I also create SOPs (Standard Operating Procedures) for everything so I’m not the bottleneck. Once things are documented and repeatable, it’s easy to scale without burning out.One big mindset shift that made this lifestyle possible? Realizing busy doesn’t equal productive. I stopped glorifying hustle and started chasing impact. I focus only on the 20% of actions that create 80% of the results—whether that’s nurturing partnerships, closing deals, or creating content that builds brand trust. If it doesn’t move the needle, I say no.And speaking of “no”—boundaries are everything. I trained my team and clients to respect my schedule. I don’t reply to business texts on Sundays. I protect off-grid time and unplug regularly to reset my nervous system. People quickly adapt when you set clear expectations—and you’ll find you’re actually more respected when you own your time.Was this shift easy? Nope. It took trial and error. I had to hustle hard at first to build the foundation. But now, with recurring income streams, dialed-in systems, and a focused schedule, I get to enjoy a life that’s rich in time, not just money.So if you’re tired of the grind and want more freedom without giving up your goals—start small. Time-block your ideal week. Identify your needle-moving tasks. Eliminate the noise. And build the life you actually want to live, one intentional move at a time.

    The DARK SIDE of Discipline: Balancing Hustle, Habits, and Human Connection with Serial Entrepreneur, WSJ Best-Selling Author & "The world’s most disciplined man", Craig Ballantyne
    Apr 15 2025
    What if your greatest strength is also your biggest blind spot?That’s the question we’re unpacking in this fire episode of The Happy Hustle Podcast. I sat down with Craig Ballantyne—a serial entrepreneur, Wall Street Journal best-selling author, and dubbed “The World’s Most Disciplined Man.” This convo isn’t just about grinding harder or waking up at 4 AM. Nope. We went deep on why discipline alone can actually wreck your relationships and happiness if you’re not careful.This one’s for every entrepreneur out there who’s chasing greatness—but wondering why it still doesn’t feel like enough.Craig drops a truth bomb straight out the gate: Discipline, when left unchecked, can turn into your biggest enemy.In his book “The Dark Side of Discipline,” Craig peels back the curtain on what happens when high achievers go too hard. You’re so focused on systems, habits, and routines… that you forget to be human.He knows this firsthand. Back in the day, he was killing it as a fitness expert, but behind the scenes, he was binge drinking on the weekends and battling serious anxiety. He ended up in the ER at 29, thinking he was having a heart attack. That was his wake-up call.So he started eliminating the bad habits, toxic people, and energy-draining environments—and building systems that supported true well-being.One of the most powerful moments in this episode is when Craig talks about the illusion of success. So many of us hustle hard for goals we didn’t even choose. Maybe you saw a dude on Instagram with a Lambo and thought, “That’s what winning looks like.” But if it costs you your peace, your relationships, or your health—is it really worth it?Craig isn’t all talk—he breaks it down with tangible tactics that help you show up as your best self:✅ Elimination: Cut out what’s draining you (yes, even that toxic “friend” who’s always dragging you to the bar).✅ Preparation: Structure your environment for success—your willpower’s not supposed to do all the work.✅ Connection: Accountability is your secret weapon. Tell someone you don’t want to disappoint what you’re gonna do—and when.Whether it’s quitting drinking, launching your biz, or leveling up your health, public accountability can flip the switch from “I’ll try” to “I did it.Look, I know how tempting it is to grind 24/7. We’ve been sold the idea that success means sacrificing everything now to maybe enjoy life someday. But that ain’t it.You don’t have to choose between success and happiness. You can Happy Hustle.And that’s what this episode is all about—finding the balance between ambition and well-being.So if you’re ready to stop running someone else’s race and start building your own version of success (the joyful, human, connected kind)... hit play on this episode. It’s a game-changer.In this episode, we cover: 00:00 The Power of Networking12:59 The Dark Side of Discipline28:21 The Illusion of Success31:07 Tactics for Personal Excellence39:44 Accountability and Connection40:32 The Dark Side of Discipline48:44 Future Pacing for a Fulfilling LifeWhat does happy Hustlin mean to you? Craig says Happy Hustling means that you are setting up yourself for a life where you can be happy. You can be happy and hustle at the same time. And most people think that they're, they're not one in the same, you can, you can have everything that you want and really live a truly great life.
