Choosing the right advisor is the most overlooked — and most important — part of implementing an Infinite Banking or high cash value life insurance strategy.

On today's episode, Darren and Christina break down the 8 critical questions you must ask any advisor before committing to Infinite Banking, corporate-owned life insurance, or the Rockefeller Method.

They explain why infinite banking is a long-term strategy, not a product, how poor advisor selection leads to costly mistakes, and how the right advisor helps you use policies for business growth, real estate, retirement planning, and estate preservation.

Most Canadians think retirement is about hitting a number but on today's episode, Darren and Christina break down why that mindset can quietly destroy your plan. They expose the biggest retirement lies in Canada: "I'll be in a lower tax bracket," "CPP/OAS will cover me," "inflation won't be that bad," and why the 4% rule can lead to underspending (or worse). You'll learn the five retirement risks that can cut retirement income in half — and what a "volatility buffer" can do to protect your withdrawals in down markets.

Most retirement plans ignore the exact risks that show up when it matters most. If you want a plan that's built for real Canadian retirement math — start here.

Well we've officially made it to the end of our Rockefeller Method Series! This episode closes it all out by bringing everything together into one complete system.

The Rockefeller Method isn't a product you buy or a strategy you "try." It's a long-term framework built on certainty, structure, and intentional living. In this final chapter, Darren and Christina explain why wealth doesn't fail because of markets or bad investments — it fails when families don't pass down wisdom alongside money.

On today's episode, we're back with our entrepreneurial spotlight series and joining Darren is Giovanni Marsico, founder of Archangel and creator of Destiny Fest — one of the most ambitious community-driven entrepreneurial platforms in the world.

What actually happened with our 2025 predictions — and what does 2026 really look like for Canadians?

In our annual predictions episode, Darren and Christina review last year's forecasts and hold themselves accountable for what they got right, what they missed, and what changed. From there, they break down what the data, policy decisions, and economic realities suggest for 2026.

Big goals don't create results — consistent execution does. In our annual goal setting episode, Darren and Christina share how they personally plan their year using a framework that blends EOS-style 90-day planning, daily habit systems, anti-goals, and weekly scorecards.

You'll learn why annual goals alone don't drive behavior, how to break big goals into manageable checkpoints, and how small daily actions compound into massive progress over time. The conversation also covers why perfection isn't required, how to recover quickly when you fall off track, and how to keep momentum going without burnout.

Most people don't realize that choosing the wrong dividend option can completely undermine a whole life insurance strategy.

On today's episode, Darren and Christina break down every dividend option available inside a participating whole life policy — and explain why Paid-Up Additions (PUAs) are not just the best option, but the only option that consistently delivers long-term wealth, liquidity, and control.

You worked hard. You took the risk. You built the business. So why does it feel like the CRA is the biggest partner you never invited in?

On today's episode, Darren and Christina break down the most dangerous corporate cash traps business owners fall into — often without even realizing it. From passive income clawbacks to estate planning disasters, these mistakes quietly erode your profits and limit your future options.

This is required listening for Canadian business owners who want control, flexibility, and tax efficiency — not surprises from the CRA.

In Part 9 of The Rockefeller Method series, Darren and Christina break down the most overlooked part of wealth building: your team. They reveal how wealthy families like the Rockefellers use a family office mindset, coordinated advisors, and clear governance to protect wealth for generations.

You'll learn why most Canadians focus only on products, while the rich obsess over alignment between accountants, lawyers, planners, and insurance specialists. They also show how to apply this in Canada using corporate-owned life insurance, the capital dividend account (CDA), and high cash value policies.

Most entrepreneurs think they need more clients. Chris Cooper says they actually need better math.

In December's edition of our entrepreneurship series, Darren sits down with Chris Cooper as they break down The Simple Six – the six metrics every business owner MUST understand if they want to stop grinding and start growing:

1. Client head count (HEAD)

2. Average revenue per member (ARM)

3. Length of engagement (LEG)

4. Effective hourly rate

5. ROI on your expenses

6. Net owner benefit

Inflation is the biggest tax Canadians never voted for – and most people don't even realize they're paying it. On today's episode, Darren and Christina expose how inflation erodes purchasing power, widens the wealth gap, and punishes Canadians who don't own assets.

On today's episode, Darren and Christina break down the 2025 Canadian federal budget! They unpack why this so-called "once-in-a-generation" plan looks more like deficits on steroids, with a projected $78.3B deficit this year and national debt heading toward $2.9 trillion by 2029.

They dive into exploding interest costs, Ottawa's controversial net debt-to-GDP spin using CPP, and what this all means for taxes, interest rates, small business owners, and Canadian families. If you care about Canadian politics, fiscal responsibility, and building wealth in a high-tax, high-debt environment, this is a must-watch.

In Part 8 of The Rockefeller Method series, Darren and Christina break down one of the most powerful chapters in What Would the Rockefellers Do? — "Maximize Your Financial Efficiency and Earning Potential."

On this month's entrepreneurial spotlight, Darren and Christina sit down with Caleb Bowers, President of Bowers Construction, to unpack how he went from being laid off, losing $70,000 in a single year, and driving a truck he couldn't afford… to building one of Atlantic Canada's most respected custom home brands.

On today's episode, it's the November update! The economy is shifting — fast. With rate cuts back on the table, inflation refusing to fade, and housing programs promising change, Canadians are searching for clarity.
