What do you do when everything goes wrong in business?

When deals fall through, cash flow dries up, and nothing seems to work, what do you actually do?

In this episode, Dan and Mason get brutally honest about the setbacks they’ve faced in their land businesses. From contracts collapsing to cash flow chaos, they share what it really looks like to weather a rough patch—and how to come out stronger on the other side.

You’ll hear the real story behind losing 10 escrows in 60 days, what reserves and rental income did to keep things afloat, and how being ultra-conservative with underwriting saved them from worse outcomes. They also dig into the deeper mindset shifts: letting go of broken systems, cutting unnecessary expenses, and making smarter bets with lower risk and higher upside.

This isn’t about theory, it’s battle-tested experience on surviving the hard seasons of entrepreneurship.

Tune in now to hear how Dan and Mason navigate failure, rethink strategy, and keep moving forward when most would quit!
