Prior to the pandemic, NAHREP was building a world class lineup for the fall convention. I was convinced it was going to be our best ever. The goal was to create a program that would be rich with content and provided our members with an experience that would last a lifetime. While a live event is still in question, we do have Mike Ferry, Matthew Ferry, Nely Galán and Deepak Chopra confirmed. These thought leaders are some of the best content creators for mindset, sales mastery and wealth building you can find anywhere in the world. If we have to go virtual, I guarantee it will be better than anything you see today. Of course, the upside is that a virtual program has the capacity to reach more people, but the trade-off is that you lose that special energy you get when you are in a big crowd of like-minded individuals.
It is incredibly disconcerting to see how the economic effect of this pandemic has affected Latino families, but it makes me even more motivated to put an event together that will have a lasting impact on our members and network. The Coronavirus has challenged our values and prompted us all to reconsider our priorities. It has caused us to reconsider how we spend our time and where we spend our money. My guess is that the September timing for this year’s NAHREP at L’ATTITUDE convention will come when our economy is emerging out from under the ashes and we will all be ready for a jolt of inspiration and positivity. I promise that NAHREP will deliver. Check it out at NAHREP at L’ATTITUDE.

I was watching a podcast recently, and something about it rubbed me the wrong way — but it also got my wheels turning. In this episode, I talk about what I love most about being American, why the system that built this country deserves more appreciation than it gets, and why some of the loudest “love it or leave it” voices go strangely quiet when powerful billionaires openly criticize the very system that made their success possible. This is a conversation about America, double standards, and what real patriotism should actually look like.
This April, the Hispanic Wealth Project is launching its High Net Worth Boot Camp, a 10-week intensive built around some of the most valuable wealth-building education I’ve seen. In this episode, I talk about why so many of us need to shift from a worker’s mentality to an owner’s mentality, why economic success has to move from consumption to wealth building, and why building wealth takes knowledge, work, and discipline. The High Net Worth Boot Camp is designed to help close that knowledge gap with modules on securities investing, real estate investments, buying and selling businesses, asset protection, and tax strategies. If building real wealth has ever felt out of reach or unclear, this is the kind of education that can change how we think and what we build.
The data tells a powerful story: Latinos are driving economic growth in America. If Latino Americans were a standalone country, we’d be the fifth-largest economy in the world, and without Latino homebuyers, the number of homeowners in America would have declined in 2025. So why doesn’t it feel like we’re winning? In this episode, I talk about the gap between growth and perception, why we still don’t have enough strong voices shaping the national conversation, and why purchasing power alone is not enough. Growth matters, but wealth matters more. This is a conversation about leadership, visibility, and what it will really take for our community to turn momentum into lasting power.
