Today, Brady stands at the helm of a multi-million dollar real estate empire spanning the US and Canada. His portfolio extends beyond this single success, encompassing ventures in car washes, storage facilities, and renovation companies. His path is marked by the battle scars of an entrepreneur, a testament to his business acumen and unwavering spirit.

But Brady's ambition reaches beyond the boardroom. He's a conqueror of Ironman races and 100 mile ultra-distance runs, pushing his physical and mental limits to achieve peak performance. These experiences fuel a "Zero to 100" mentality, inspiring him to take decisive action and empower others to launch and scale their dreams, whether in real estate, entrepreneurship, or fitness.

Brady's message is clear: we can achieve anything we set our sights on. He's a speaker who not only offers actionable business strategies, but also ignites the fire within to chase audacious goals.

Kory MacKinnon

A former Corporate Trainer, Kory found his passion for real estate investing in his late teens after reading David Chilton’s book The Wealthy Barber.  However, lack of knowledge, systems and trusted mentors kept him from pulling the trigger on his first property until he was 30 years of age.

As the saying goes, the seed was planted and from that day forward, Kory used two decades of business experience to turn his lucrative real estate side hustle into early retirement.
