Send us a textWall Street insider walks away from managing billions for the 1% to build something the industry tried to keep impossible: elite investment strategies for everyday people starting at just $3/month. Justin Kuyper exposes why the accredited investor system keeps you locked out and how he's breaking it wide open.This raw conversation reveals the hidden truth about wealth inequality in investing. Justin shares his journey from working inside top hedge funds and private equity firms—where he had access to data on every major player from Blackstone to KKR—to realizing the investor lists were shockingly short while everyone else got locked out. After watching friends struggle to access the same high-performance investments that generated 30-40% annual returns for the wealthy, he made a controversial decision: partner with one of America's largest brokerages to build OpenVest, an actively managed platform that breaks every rule. He spent six months in India bootstrapping the technology, navigating complex SEC regulations, and designing a pricing model that makes traditional wealth managers furious—no percentage fees, just a flat $3/month.Who is Justin Kuyper:Justin Kuyper is a former Wall Street finance professional turned fintech entrepreneur who's on a mission to democratize elite investment strategies. After working inside New York's hedge fund and private equity industry, where he had direct access to the performance data and investor lists of top firms like Blackstone, KKR, and Citadel, Justin witnessed firsthand how the system locked out 99% of people from wealth-building opportunities reserved for the ultra-wealthy. This revelation sparked his decision to walk away from financial security and build something that challenged the status quo.As the co-founder of OpenVest, Justin has created the first actively managed investment platform that makes institutional-grade strategies accessible to anyone starting with just $300. By spending six months in India working directly with his engineering team, navigating complex SEC regulations, and partnering with Interactive Brokers (one of America's top four brokerages), he's built a solution that charges a flat $3/month instead of percentage-based fees that drain returns. Currently expanding from 11 US states to India and planning global growth to Brazil and beyond, Justin is proving that disruption isn't about having the biggest budget—it's about solving real problems with better solutions and staying committed to a mission that matters.Check out our channel and follow us on social media for more leadership, entrepreneurship, personal development, and success stories. 👉 https://linktr.ee/inspiredbysuccessManage your finances like a pro while chasing your entrepreneurial dreams!

Send us a textWhy do successful entrepreneurs feel empty despite hitting every goal? Rob Tracz built a thriving business working 80+ hours weekly, then lost everything that mattered—including his father. This raw conversation reveals how "successfully stuck" entrepreneurs sabotage themselves and the brutal wake-up call that changed everything.Rob shares his journey from grinding 16-hour days for three years straight without a single day off to discovering the dangerous trap of chasing financial markers while losing your health, relationships, and soul. After choosing work over spending time with his dying father, Rob hit rock bottom and realized he was building a life he didn't want to live. His story exposes how childhood experiences create patterns of people-pleasing, boundary-breaking, and using work as a distraction from pain. He reveals the difference between peak performance and burnout performance, and why most entrepreneurs mistake exhaustion for dedication.Who is Rob Tracz:Rob Tracz is the founder and CEO of Taps Coaching, a performance coach and entrepreneur psychology expert who specializes in helping successful business owners break free from being "successfully stuck." After building a profitable strength and conditioning business that demanded 16-17 hour days and launching a supplement line, Rob experienced a devastating wake-up call when his father passed from pancreatic cancer—having worked 30 years only to lose his pension before retirement. This tragedy, combined with his own burnout and deteriorating health, sparked Rob's transformation from hustling to healing.As the host of the "Surviving the Side Hustle" podcast, Rob combines his master's degree in exercise science with hard-won wisdom about the psychology of high performance. He works with solopreneurs, side hustlers, and entrepreneurs who appear successful but feel trapped, helping them develop awareness around their motivational drives, establish sustainable routines, and design environments that support breakthrough rather than breakdown. Rob's coaching focuses on the critical balance between pushing for growth and knowing when to pull back, emphasizing that true success comes from working smarter through self-awareness, strategic systems, and honoring personal boundaries.Check out our channel and follow us on social media for more leadership, entrepreneurship, personal development, and success stories. 👉 https://linktr.ee/inspiredbysuccessManage your finances like a pro while chasing your entrepreneurial dreams!

His "Rise Above the Script" framework has helped countless individuals conquer imposter syndrome, overcome paralyzing perfectionism, and transform fear into fuel for breakthrough growth.5 KEY TAKEAWAYSProcrastination Is Trauma, Not Laziness - Research shows chronic procrastination often stems from childhood trauma rather than lack of discipline. The Happy File Builds Bulletproof Confidence - Document every win, testimonial, praise, and positive press in a running "happy file." Perfectionism Prevents Starting, Not Excellence - The belief that you need one more certification, one more course, or perfect conditions before launching keeps entrepreneurs stuck forever. Business Owner vs. Business Operator Mindset - Operators work 14-hour days barely making ends meet. Eliminate "Someday" from Your Vocabulary - "Someday I'll expand, someday I'll launch, someday I'll write the book" is a mental trap that guarantees nothing changes. CALL TO ACTIONSCheck out our channel and follow us on social media for more leadership, entrepreneurship, personal development, and success stories. 👉 https://linktr.ee/inspiredbysuccessManage your finances like a pro while chasing your entrepreneurial dreams!
