In this insightful episode of The Ride Boundless Podcast, I sit down with my good friend and business collaborator, John Romero, a seasoned financial advisor with extensive knowledge in insurance and personal injury. Together, we delve into the often-overlooked realm of financial education, discussing why topics like investing, wealth management, and securing our financial future are seldom taught in schools. Our conversation challenges the conventional narrative of working hard, paying taxes, and repeating the cycle. We explore the concept of "checking in from the neck down," a reference from [Book Title], and discuss the "blue ocean opportunity" that lies within each of us. By examining the habits and strategies of the wealthy, we uncover the information gap that keeps many from achieving financial independence. Join us as we break down complex financial concepts into actionable insights, aiming to empower you to take control of your financial destiny.

Julio shares personal stories about how the sport shaped his life and mental health, and how it brings peace, community, and joy—especially for children navigating challenges like divorce or instability at home. Soccer is more than a game—it’s connection, healing, and accessibility, no matter where you are. Tune in and check out Julio’s show Vive El Futbol for more on the beautiful game.

In this thrilling episode, I sit down with Jason—better known as "The Hawk Guy"—a professional falconer for LAFC, TV, film, special events, and beyond. But Jason’s story doesn’t stop there. He’s also a veteran, a former MMA fighter, a skilled fabricator, and a watch-building enthusiast. He took over the family business after his father’s retirement, continuing the legacy of working with these majestic birds at major events. We dive into his journey from combat medic in the US Army to mastering the art of falconry, his love for cars and watches, and the incredible experiences that have shaped him. I first met Jason at an LAFC match, where I’ve been attending alongside Jaime Camil, and after a well-received video edit, we made this conversation happen. Special shoutout to Jason for his patience during this recording—I was on father duty, so my little one was in the studio, making this episode even more special. Without further ado, let’s take flight with Jason, The Hawk Guy! 🎙️🦅 #RideBoundless #Falconry #LAFC #Veteran #Podcast

In this episode, I sit down with Shannon Allbright, a passionate motorcyclist, documentary filmmaker, and community advocate. Known as "Miss Shannon" to the children and parents she inspires through her sewing and embroidery enrichment programs, Shannon shares how her creative passions intersect with her love for motorcycles. Since starting her motorcycle journey in 2017, Shannon has become the proud owner of four bikes and has ridden across the country for causes close to her heart. Her documentary, 2500 Miles, captures her solo journey from Los Angeles to Selma, Alabama, where she taught sewing to children at the same school where she learned to read and write. We discuss the launch of the Beverly Hills Motorcycle Club, a social riding club founded by Shannon to support charities in Los Angeles, starting with a January ride to visit veterans at a local hospital. Through her work with veterans, children, and at-risk youth, Shannon is making a difference one ride at a time. This was a fun and inspiring conversation with a true neighbor and local hero.
