In this episode, I sit down with the one and only Frank McKinney—a full-send, purpose-fueled force of nature who’s built $50 million oceanfront mansions, finished 7 Badwater 135s (going for #8 this summer), written 9 books across 8 genres, and constructed 32 self-sustaining villages in Haiti through his Caring House Project.
Frank calls himself a real estate artist.I call him a Renaissance Man on a mission for good.
We dig into:
The importance of personal branding and why you need to be unapologetically and authentically you
Why mono-maniacal focus is a superpower
What it takes to run 135 miles in Death Valley
And why dragging a tire through Florida might be a spiritual experience
