from The Fortunate FISHES Podcast · host Charlie Garcia

Don Wenner spent a full day one-on-one with Jim Collins. What he learned about the Flywheel and 20 Mile March principle drove 50% compounded growth for 19 years.This isn't theory. Don built DLP Capital from zero to nearly $1 billion with 1,000 employees across real estate, banking, and impact investing. He made the Inc. 500 list 13 consecutive years while integrating faith, family, and profit.What makes this conversation different?:- The hiring system behind 7 interviews per week for a decade- Why "consistency beats intensity" compounds faster than sprints- How the Flywheel evolved since Collins wrote it (2023 updates)- Trading Glenn Beck endorsements for $250/month (and becoming #1)- 11 non-negotiable commitments that separate success from significance.Don references Luke 12:48, Matthew 25:14, and builds his "ministry platform" inside his "profit engine" - the power of AND, not OR.For operators scaling $10M to $500M who want systems, not slogans.Books referenced:Turning the Flywheel (Jim Collins)Great by Choice (Jim Collins)Discipline Is Destiny (Ryan Holiday)Building an Elite Organization (Don Wenner)"Message us"
