In this episode, I sit down with Jonas Medrano, a powerhouse of discipline and drive who took the principles he learned from sports and fitness and applied them masterfully to real estate investing. From wholesaling his first property to scaling a $12 million business from his dining room table, Jonas’ story is not just about financial success, it’s about the mindset and grit it takes to get there.

We dig into how Jonas adopted the Profit First philosophy early in his business and how that has fueled his high-profit margins and lean operations. He also opens up about his new passion for coaching and the exact type of driven individuals he’s looking to mentor. If you’re looking for inspiration and actionable insights from someone who’s done the work and built a thriving real estate business from the ground up, this episode is for you.
