| 6/18/26 | ![]() From Hustle Culture to Million Dollar Naps | Can taking a nap actually make you a better entrepreneur?For years, we've been told that success belongs to those who hustle the hardest, sleep the least, and stay busy around the clock. But what if that's exactly what's holding us back?In this episode of The RJ Ledesma Podcast, I sit down with Dr. Shakti Katyal, founder of Real n Royal, former finance professional, entrepreneur, author, and advocate of what he calls the "Million Dollar Nap."We discuss why so many entrepreneurs end up becoming prisoners of the very businesses they built, how burnout quietly affects decision-making and business growth, and why strategic rest may actually be one of the most underrated competitive advantages in entrepreneurship.More importantly, we explore the difference between making money and achieving true financial freedom, why some high achievers never feel wealthy despite their success, and how entrepreneurs can build sustainable businesses without sacrificing their health, relationships, and peace of mind.Whether you're a founder, executive, business owner, or simply someone striving for success, this conversation may challenge everything you thought you knew about productivity, wealth, and performance.Watch the full episode now.For any collaboration, brand partnership, and campaign run inquiries, e-mail us at info@thepodnetwork.com.

| 6/18/26 | ![]() FROM BUILDING COMPANIES TO BUILDING TRUST | What if the most valuable currency in the future isn't money, data, or even AI?What if it's trust?In an age of misinformation, digital fraud, deepfakes, and AI-generated content, the ability to verify what is real may become one of the most important challenges of our time.That's exactly the mission behind BYC Ventures.In this episode of The RJ Ledesma Podcast, I sit down with Paul Soliman, one of the country's pioneers in emerging technologies, and Gelo Wong, recently recognized in the Forbes Asia 30 Under 30 Class of 2026, for a fascinating conversation about building the infrastructure of trust in a digital world. Together, they share how they are helping governments, institutions, and enterprises verify information, improve transparency, and create systems where truth can be independently proven rather than simply assumed.But beyond the technology, this is really a story about entrepreneurship.Why dedicate your life to solving a problem that most people don't even realize exists?How do you build a company around a mission that is bigger than profits?And what does leadership look like when you're not just building a business, but helping shape the future of trust itself?This conversation goes beyond startups, blockchain, and technology. It's about vision, impact, and the courage to tackle some of society's most difficult problems.Because while technology will continue to evolve, trust will always remain the foundation upon which progress is built.Catch my conversation with Paul Soliman and Gelo Wong on The RJ Ledesma Podcast.#RJLedesmaPodcast #PaulSoliman #GeloWong #BYCVentures #Forbes30Under30 #Entrepreneurship #Innovation #Leadership #StartupPH #Technology #TrustFor any collaboration, brand partnership, and campaign run inquiries, e-mail us at info@thepodnetwork.com.

| 2/3/26 | ![]() From Poverty to Property Developer: Renold Verano’s Rise | Not all entrepreneurs are born into business families—some are born into struggle and choose to rise anyway. On the RJ Ledesma Podcast, I sat down with Renold Verano, President and CEO of InvestPHIL, whose journey from poverty to property development is both raw and deeply inspiring.Renold began his career as a real estate broker, learning the business the hard way—without a family enterprise to fall back on and with no formal business background. A History and Political Science graduate from UP, he learned through grit, experience, and relentless self-education. That hunger to grow eventually led him to earn a Master’s in Entrepreneurship from the Ateneo Graduate School of Business, helping him turn instinct into strategy and hustle into systems.Today, InvestPHIL develops affordable single-family homes across Negros Occidental and Palawan, while entering its next growth phase with one of its newest projects now rising in Lipa—one of Southern Luzon’s fastest-growing cities. With around 50 housing units sold monthly, InvestPHIL is now one of the most active property developers being sold by Filipino Homes. This episode is a powerful reminder that where you start doesn’t have to define how far you go.🎧 Catch this episode on the RJ Ledesma Podcast.For any collaboration, brand partnership, and campaign run inquiries, e-mail us at info@thepodnetwork.com.

| 1/2/26 | ![]() From Cold Calls to Closings on Repeat: The System Behind Marc Godornes’ Success | On the RJ Ledesma Podcast, I sat down with real estate sales superstar Marc Godornes of Filipino Homes—a top-performing agent who proves that real success in real estate isn’t built on luck, hype, or viral moments, but on discipline and a repeatable system. Marc shares how he transitioned from doing the hard, unglamorous work of prospecting and learning the business to building a process that consistently attracts clients and converts trust into long-term relationships.What stood out in our conversation was Marc’s belief that the real win doesn’t end at the sale. He talks about the power of after-sales care, referrals, and showing up professionally long after the commission check—habits that helped him grow not just his income, but his reputation. His journey is a powerful reminder that sustainable success comes from mastering the fundamentals and committing to daily excellence.Catch the full episode on the RJ Ledesma Podcast.
