Episode Details

Happy, healthy, wealthy, wise — in that exact order. Russ Lagan has this tattooed on his forearm, and this episode will show you exactly why the sequence changes everything.
Russ Lagan is a serial entrepreneur and VP of Growth at eXp Realty, but what makes him worth listening to is not the title. It is the 30 years of marriage, the mountain climbs, the train derailments, the jobs he walked away from at peak pay, and the moment he stood at the top of his career and wanted nothing more than to be somewhere else. In this conversation, Russ breaks down the happy, healthy, wealthy, wise framework that has guided every major decision in his life and why most high performers have the order completely backwards.
You will hear why happiness is a precursor to success and not the result of it, how to stop chasing the wrong mountain, and the one thing Russ told Mat's wife on the day he offered him the job that she said she had never heard from anyone before. If you are building a career and a life at the same time, this one is for you.
"I was standing at the top and I wanted to hit myself in the head with my climbing axe. That is not the mountain you want to be on."
