The way you’ve been taught to invest may not be the way wealth is actually built.

In this solo episode, Amy breaks down insights from the Tiger 21 asset allocation report and highlights how ultra-high-net-worth individuals approach investing differently. While most people are guided toward traditional paths like 401(k)s, stocks, and homeownership, the wealthy allocate a significant portion of their portfolios to alternative assets like private equity and real estate.

This conversation challenges common beliefs around diversification and explains why many portfolios are not as balanced as they seem. It also opens the door to a broader understanding of what is available beyond traditional investing. If you’re looking to think differently about money and expand your financial awareness, this episode offers a valuable starting point.

What happens when passion meets purpose? In this powerful and deeply moving conversation, Amy sits down with Jarvis Terry, known to many as USCJ, the voice behind the popular USC football platform Lost in the Sauce Podcast. While thousands know him for his football insight and Trojan loyalty, this episode reveals the heart behind the platform.

Jarvis shares his journey from growing up in Los Angeles’ Crenshaw District to building a thriving USC football community that reaches hundreds of thousands monthly. But more importantly, he opens up about faith, mentorship, prison ministry, redemption, and what it means to be willing to surrender everything for God.

This is not just a conversation about football. It is about calling, obedience, legacy, and using whatever platform you have to impact lives.

What does abundance look like when you work with people in the most fragile moments of their lives?

In this deeply moving episode, Amy Sylvis sits down with her former cystic fibrosis physician, Dr. Kamyar Afshar, now Medical Director of the Lung Transplant Program at UC San Diego. Together, they explore what it means to practice medicine with dignity, compassion, and cultural awareness, and how lived experience shapes leadership.

Dr. Afshar shares his family’s immigration story from Iran, the values of service instilled by his parents, and how those experiences shaped his approach to medicine. He opens up about leading during COVID, navigating misinformation with grace, mentoring the next generation of physicians, and raising children with intentional values. This conversation is about more than medicine. It’s about connection. Courage. Asking for help. And creating abundance through service.

In this timely solo episode, Amy Sylvis breaks down what a potential shift in Federal Reserve leadership could mean for the economy, interest rates, and commercial real estate investors. With speculation swirling around a possible nomination of Kevin Warsh as the next Federal Reserve Chair, Amy walks listeners through how a more forward-looking, deregulation-friendly Fed might change monetary policy decisions and why those changes matter far beyond Wall Street.

The conversation goes deeper than headlines, connecting Federal Reserve strategy to the growing pressure of U.S. national debt, refinancing timelines, and the real-world consequences of interest rate decisions. Amy also shares how she personally thinks about inflation, hard assets, and passive income strategies in uncertain economic environments, offering listeners a grounded framework for thinking long-term rather than reacting emotionally to short-term noise.

In this powerful and deeply human conversation, Amy Sylvis sits down with gratitude expert, entrepreneur, and author Kim Angeli to explore what it truly means to choose abundance - even when life feels chaotic, uncertain, or painful. Kim shares her personal journey from building and selling a successful insurance agency to answering a calling to teach Grateful Living as a daily practice.

Together, Amy and Kim unpack the science and spirituality behind gratitude, why only a small percentage of people consciously choose it, and how shifting from reaction to response can radically change your life, business, and sense of purpose. This episode is a reminder that abundance is not something we chase - it’s something we practice.
