Business

Frequency with Rick Jordan

Frequency with Rick Jordan is about ambition, pressure, success, relationships, and chasing a bigger life while quietly wondering why the things you want still feel out of reach… or why the things you finally got still have not made you feel whole.

Rick sits down with founders, leaders, experts, creators, builders, parents, and people who have lived through something worth hearing. Some episodes are sharp and direct. Some are grounded and more reflective. Some bring in well known guests. Some are Rick alone at the mic. Every conversation is built to make the truth harder to ignore.

These are conversations about the pressure people carry but rarely say out loud. Work. Love. Failure. Money. Identity. Decisions. The patterns that keep repeating. The excuses that sound reasonable. The truth sitting underneath the thing you keep calling the problem.

Enough performing your way toward a life that still feels empty.

More courage.

More peace.

More alignment.

More of the life you are actually meant to build.

The Walking Dead on Wall Street | Craig Siegel Nov 04, 2025

Show notes

Craig Siegel was The Walking Dead. Thirteen years on Wall Street. Making good money but the lights were on and nobody was home. Depleted at the end of every day. Not tired from a job well done. Depleted from being completely out of alignment. Then he started running marathons. Those miles became his connection time. Tapping into divine inspiration without caring about anything else. The pandemic hit and Craig shut his office for two weeks. Used that time to get quiet and reassess. Realized his obsession with personal development wasn't just passion. It was assignment. Built a ten-lane highway strategy. Coaching. Speaking. TED talk. Podcast. Book deal. Started with zero following. Zero connections. Here's what gripped me. Craig said going back to his old life equated to death. Not metaphorically. He actually associated death with choosing to return to Wall Street. He went back one day after starting CLS. Came home and said never again. Burned the ships. All in or die trying. The difference between pressure and stress became clear. Pressure is a flashlight showing massive growth on the other side. Stress means you're in the wrong arena. Out of alignment. Soul contracting. When you feel drained depleted tired in that deep way it's your signal to reassess everything. The transformation included his entire identity. Got engaged to his soulmate. Got a new puppy. Everything reinvented. Before that he wasn't even himself. Created a persona based on nothing. When he reinvented he gave himself permission to be less than perfect. Journey back to actual him. People would gravitate or they wouldn't. He could live with that. The money story is crucial. Craig makes more now than he ever made on Wall Street. Difference is it's a byproduct and energetic exchange. You can have purpose and love what you're doing while unapologetically doing business too. Most people think what made them successful was the arena not themselves. Wrong. You make everything successful. Those characteristics transfer. The Reinvention Formula released last August. Wall Street Journal and USA Today bestseller. Fifteen years of personal development condensed. First step is getting clarity. Realizing you're not in alignment. Understanding you have a choice. This is your movie. You're the main character. If you don't like the plot the pen is in your hands to rewrite the next scene.

Blame. Fault. Responsibility. | Rick Jordan Oct 30, 2025

Show notes

What’s shakin’? Today, I’m going all in on one of the most real lessons I’ve had in a long time. I was speaking at a high-level entrepreneur dinner — $2,500-a-seat type of crowd — and got asked a powerful question: What’s the biggest lesson you’ve learned in the past seven days? My answer surprised everyone, including myself. I said, “Sometimes, optimism doesn’t cut it.” We’re all told that life isn’t happening to us, it’s happening for us. But I call B.S. on that—because sometimes, life does hit you. It happens to you. And in those moments, it’s okay to say, “This sucks.” That’s not weakness; that’s honesty. The truth is, blame and fault live in the past, but responsibility—that’s what moves you forward. You don’t have to know your next five steps. You just have to take the next one. If you’ve been trying to stay positive when everything around you is falling apart, this episode is for you. It’s about acknowledging the pain, taking responsibility, and finding freedom in movement—because when you move, you release. When you’re stuck, you’re bound.

From Pain-Based to Purpose-Driven | Julie and Skip Wyss Oct 28, 2025

Show notes

Skip and Julie Whis drove seven hours to be in the studio. That tells you something right there about the kind of people they are. These two are chiropractors. Married chiropractors. Running a successful practice together. Teaching their kids about legacy. Doing it all differently than everyone else in their field. Here's the truth about chiropractors. Most of them are terrible business people. They either stay broke playing the insurance game. Or they become frantic stress cases running from room to room treating patients like dollar signs. Skip and Julie figured out something different. They built their practice around experience. Not adjustments. Skip knew from sixth grade he was going to be a chiropractor. Marry another chiropractor. Have two kids. All before age 30. Julie had the same vision. Red house with a turret. Boy and a girl. They manifested every single piece of it. But the real story isn't just about the practice. It's about what they're building beyond it. They don't sell adjustments. They sell experiences. Patients don't pay them for cracking backs. They pay for the transformation. For getting their kid back. For finally having a newborn that doesn't cry all night. For understanding their child with special needs. That's what people actually want. Not another $27 exam from some stressed out doc in a dirty office with last week's newspaper. But the real conversation today goes beyond business. It's about legacy. Not the kind where you want people to remember your name. The kind where you give your kids opportunities you never had. Where you teach them money is available. Money is energy. Money works for you. Not the other way around. This conversation covers everything. How to read people fast. Why integrity matters more than money. The difference between weak money that leaves easy and hard money you earn. Why patients pick up on neediness immediately. How to create proximity instead of distance in relationships. What it means to give back to the community that trusts you. Skip and Julie get it. They're not Alan from Two and a Half Men living on someone's couch. They're building something that matters. Teaching their kids to build something that matters. Showing other chiropractors how to stop being broke and start creating real value. That's legacy.

I Take Full Accountability" - Now What? | Rick Jordan Oct 23, 2025

Show notes

How many times have you heard someone say "I take full accountability" or "That's on me"? They seem sincere. They really do. But then what happens? Nothing changes. Same behavior. Same mistakes. Same bullshit. That's because accountability isn't about what you say. It's about what you do after you say it. We've got this accountability canvas in the office. Do it. Own it. Solve it. Those aren't just words. They're actions. Because true accountability is about taking action. Not just talking about taking action. Actually doing it. So when someone tells you "I take full accountability," ask them this. "Cool. So what are you going to do now?" Watch them get stunned. Because most people haven't thought past the words. They think saying it is enough. It's not. Here's what real accountability looks like. Five things. Not one. Five. Expressing self-awareness about your behaviors and moving forward with integrity. Making a plan of action to ensure the issue doesn't happen again. This isn't about perfection. Acknowledging your role in the situation and accepting the consequences. Even if you weren't the one who caused the problem. Recognizing and owning how your actions have hurt others. No deflecting. No blaming. Making a genuine effort to make things better. Not to save face. Not to manipulate. To actually be a better human overall. Everything I just told you is about being happy. About resolution. About reconciliation. About getting on the same page and moving forward together. Or sometimes about parting ways amicably if that's the right move. These five things make "I take full accountability" actually mean something. Take these. Apply them to the next situation that happens. Today. Tomorrow. This weekend. Watch what changes.

Your Network Is Your Net Worth | Rick Jordan Oct 17, 2025

Show notes

Most people get networking completely wrong. Dead wrong. They show up at events looking for business. Looking for clients. Looking for what they can get. That's why they fail. That's why their network stays small. That's why they stay stuck. I built my publicly traded cybersecurity company from being one person 14 years ago to almost 100 employees. You know how? Through my network. Through intentionally building relationships with people who've been where I wanted to go. Finding mentors who've done it before. Connecting with people who could fill the gaps I couldn't fill myself. Here's what nobody tells you about networking. You don't go to events to find business. You go to bring value. You go to teach. You go to offer yourself and see what you can do for other people. Even more important. You go to ask for help. That's the secret right there. Asking for help is the biggest service you can give someone. My friend David Meltzer says if you don't ask somebody for help you're robbing them of the opportunity to fulfill their purpose. Think about that. This is why we're here on this planet. To help each other. To serve each other. To build communities where everyone has a role and everyone can help somebody else. Not to be antisocial. Not to hustle people. But to genuinely care and connect. This is how you build something real. This is how you go from being one person to leading almost 100. This is how you take a company public. Through intentional relationship building. Through serving. Through asking for help and helping others. Your network is everything. Build it intentionally. Serve people genuinely. Watch what happens.

Stop Being Your Best Employee | Brian Decker Oct 14, 2025

Show notes

Brian Decker gets it. This dude actually gets what it means to be a serial entrepreneur. Not the fake kind you see plastered all over social media. The real kind. Brian spent 22 years building businesses the right way. Started as a CPA. Hated it. Jumped into mortgage lending right before the 2008 crash. Then doubled down when everyone else ran away. Built himself into one of the top loan officers in the country. Made multiple seven figures. Then did something most people never do. He recognized the trap. So he did what real entrepreneurs do. Kept the golden goose running. Took one out of every eight golden eggs. Invested it into the next thing. Then the next. Now he's CEO of a solar energy company with AI and machine learning built in. Recurring revenue model. SaaS multiple. Patent potential. That's how you build real wealth. Brian breaks down the mentality shift from chasing money to watching your employees' lives change. That Christmas party where someone's wife thanks you in tears because she could finally stop working to be with her kids. That's the real reason you do this. This episode will change how you think about building businesses. About what makes something scalable. About knowing your lane and staying in it. Brian's been in the trenches for over two decades. He's made mistakes. He's built the systems. And he's showing you exactly what works.

Trauma Isn’t a Badge of Honor | Rick Jordan Oct 09, 2025

Show notes

We’ve all experienced it in some way. Maybe it’s something that happened once and hit you deep, or maybe it was a pattern that played out over time. Either way, trauma shapes how we see the world. But here’s the deal—it’s not supposed to define who we are forever. Somewhere along the line, “trauma” became a buzzword. It turned into something people wear like a badge instead of something they actually work to heal. So, I’m calling this out today. If you’re aware of your trauma but keep using it as an excuse, stop talking about it and start doing something about it. Awareness is powerful, but it’s only the first step. The real transformation happens when you put in the work to change how you think, how you react, and how you show up in life. That’s when people start noticing something different about you—because healing is magnetic. Let’s talk about how to move from victim to victor and take your power back.

The Wonder Sauce of Branding | John Sampogna Oct 07, 2025

Show notes

What’s shakin’? I went all in today with someone who truly understands the evolution of digital marketing — John Sampogna, co-founder and CEO of Wonder Sauce, a creative agency behind some of the most innovative brand stories out there. John’s worked with massive names like Samsung, Brookfield, and Subway, and been featured in outlets like CNBC, Yahoo, and Digiday — but what really stood out in this convo was his honesty about what makes modern marketing work. We dug deep into the difference between branding and marketing, how companies get lost chasing performance metrics, and why storytelling and authenticity still reign supreme. John also dropped major insight on how AI is transforming the creative world — not replacing creators, but enhancing them. We even got into how his team uses AI responsibly to make campaigns smarter, faster, and more human. This one is for every entrepreneur, marketer, and creator trying to navigate the new digital frontier. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by “hustle culture” in marketing or wondered how to stand out in a noisy world, this episode is your playbook.

Honing Your Manhood | Rick Jordan Oct 02, 2025

Show notes

This is the sequel to my episode on what makes a good man. That one was about character. This one is about the daily work. The things you earn. The things you can't buy. Three things every man needs to work on every single day. A fit body. A calm mind. A house full of love. None of these come easy. None of these stay without consistency. All of them are temporary without intention. A fit body isn't about six-pack abs. It's about showing up. Five days a week. Thirty minutes minimum. Watching what you put in your body. The formula is simple. Your target weight times ten equals your calorie intake. Add some dumbbell work. That's it. Stop overcomplicating it. A calm mind doesn't mean you're not an entrepreneur with twenty-seven ideas in the shower. It means emotional stability. Being grounded. You can get angry and still have a calm mind. You can get pissed off and still have a calm mind. It's about bringing yourself back to baseline. Making choices instead of reacting. That's what leads to a house full of love. Theodore Roosevelt said it best. The only man who never makes mistakes is the man who never does anything. You want to know why you're stuck. You're playing it too safe. You think you need fifty grand saved before you start. You think you need all your ducks in a row. That's bullshit. Risk is the only way to gain everything you want. Big things are only obtainable by people who make big screw-ups. The third thing is patience. A man who is a master of patience is a master of everything else. Not patience with everyone else. Patience with yourself. You can't be patient with your kids driving you crazy if you're not patient with yourself. You miss a deadline. You yell at someone you love. Be patient with yourself. Apologize. Tell them you're working on it. Tell them you'll do better. That's how you build a huge heart.
