The Golden Mic (W/ Josh Forti) - A podcast by Josh Forti - Thursdays

JR Rivas is an entrepreneur and a notable figure who co-founded BNB Leverage.In this episode, Rivas and I discuss the dynamics of large families and the responsibilities that come with parenthood. They dive into the impact of having a child, and the unique perspective and purpose it brings to life.Rivas then shares his “pragmatic” views on marriage and kids and what he thinks of prenuptial agreements. We then dive into polygamy and different religious and cultural views on such relationships and their views on Islamic practices in such topics. We also critique the cult-like practices and control over people that exist in many religions and how that compares to Christianity. Rivas then explains his approach to business and how he accumulated skills and experiences over time. As his company grew, tasks that once seemed daunting became manageable skills he mastered. This mindset allowed him to build a successful business that reached over seven million dollars in revenue in under two years. Rivas also shares his experience of how business and entrepreneurial success is different from traditional academic success. Join us today as Rivas discusses how he found a structured way to achieve millions in his business, the three essential components of a successful business, and the psychological barriers that prevent some people from pursuing entrepreneurship.ENJOY! Connect with JR Rivas:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jrrivas/BNB Leverage: https://www.bnbleverage.com/ig-organic-jr  RELEVANT LINKS:- Watch On YouTube- Subscribe To Newsletter- Connect With Josh
