In this episode, I sit down with Jeff Ahern — a former Reconnaissance Marine turned full-time real estate investor, husband, and father. Jeff shares how he and his wife Megan went from losing $50K on their first flip to building a thriving business that now flips 30+ houses a year, manages 40+ rental doors, and co-owns multiple companies.

Together, we dig into:

  • How to turn setbacks into stepping stones — Jeff’s journey from medical separation to entrepreneurship.

  • Why your first big loss might be the best thing that happens to you — and how to bounce back stronger.

  • The exact steps Jeff and Megan used to scale from one trailer-parked house flip to a diversified real estate empire.

  • What military discipline can teach us about business systems and the power of delayed gratification.

If you’ve ever struggled with self-doubt, early failures, or fear of taking the leap into real estate, this conversation will give you the mindset and tactics to keep moving forward.
