🔊 Lightspeed Investing Podcast — Episode 64 is LIVE "Nicole Daeila's Journey from Self-Taught Trader to PE Executive" This week's guest is someone who exemplifies both intelligence and intention. I sat down with Nicole Daeila, Director of Capital Markets at MAG Capital Partners, to talk through what it really takes to build sustainable wealth—not just for yourself, but for your family. Nicole's story is grounded in action. She started trading stocks and options while still in college—no paper trading, no hand-holding—just a strong will to figure it out. Now, she's helping to lead one of the top private equity firms focused on industrial real estate. Her focus: food production, U.S. manufacturing, and recession-resilient assets. What I appreciated most was her clarity. She's not just chasing returns—she's designing freedom. In this episode, we covered 🎯: ✨ How Nicole is building a 7-figure real estate portfolio to retire her parents ✨ The truth about CCIM and why it's so difficult to earn ✨ The role of self-education vs. formal credentials in wealth building ✨ Why investing in your own skillset always comes first ✨ And how to build a real network—without pretending to be someone you're not If you're serious about bridging purpose and profit—this one's for you. 🎧 Watch Episode 64 on 👉 LinkedIn 📺 Also on YouTube 🤝 Ready to Share Your Story on Lightspeed Investing Podcast? 📅 Schedule your call with our host, Philip: 📞 https://calendly.com/lightspeedinvesting 📩 Want to reach Nicole directly?
