About this episode

Matt Uhler and Alexa D'Agostino discuss the uncomfortable truths behind building lasting wealth and scaling businesses.

What actually creates lasting wealth? And why do so many entrepreneurs hit a ceiling despite working harder than ever? In this episode of What's Your Deal? , Matt Uhler sits down with entrepreneur, investor, and marketing strategist Alexa D'Agostino to discuss the uncomfortable truths behind scaling a business, building wealth, and transitioning from founder to owner. Alexa has built and exited multiple companies, helped generate billions in revenue, and created the exclusive Wealth Mastery Summit , where high-level entrepreneurs, investors, and operators gather to solve real business challenges. Together they explore why wealth isn't built through one lucky break, how founders unknowingly become the biggest bottleneck in their businesses, why finding the right "Number Two" is critical for growth, and how successful entrepreneurs know when to pivot instead of stubbornly pushing forward. If you're building a business—or planning to acquire one—this conversation will challenge the way you think about leadership, identity, and long-term success.
