The Dillon England Show

Jim Steffen has done things most people only dream about. Serial entrepreneur, former American Ninja Warrior contestant, and known as “America’s Fun Fitness Coach,” he’s spent a lifetime proving that exercise is the best medicine we’re not taking. We get into why gyms don’t work for most people, the surprising connection between movement and mental health, and the philosophy behind Jim’s homemade kettlebells. He proves consistency over perfection is best and why he believes we’re all recovering from something. *Connect with Jim* Web: https://xtfit.us/ *Connect with Dillon* https://www.instagram.com/thedillonenglandshow/ https://twitter.com/imdillonengland https://www.linkedin.com/in/dillonmengland/ https://www.facebook.com/dillon.england.5 *Sponsor — Broadcast Brew (Low-Acid Coffee)* Order our LOW ACID COFFEE “THE BROADCAST BREW” Thank you to Cool Beans Coffee Brewery for your partnership. https://www.coolbeanscoffeemi.com/product-page/broadcast-brew-low-acid-blend *ABOUT THE DILLON ENGLAND SHOW* Authentic conversations with interesting people across personal growth, entrepreneurship, and lifestyle — direct, faith-forward, Detroit grit.

Dr. Vance Cast started out helping a few friends navigate who to trust online in the world of trading. When he discovered there wasn’t anyone worth trusting, he built the system himself. What began as a simple promise grew into a community of traders who trade together, argue together, laugh together, and change each other’s lives. Vance talks about the moments that made him see this was bigger than day trading: Through all of it, Vance keeps coming back to one truth: people don’t fail because the market is too hard but because they never learned how to tell themselves truth. *Connect with Vance* Web: https://cvancecast.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dr-clifford-vance-cast/ *Connect with Dillon* https://www.instagram.com/thedillonenglandshow/ https://twitter.com/imdillonengland https://www.linkedin.com/in/dillonmengland/ https://www.facebook.com/dillon.england.5 *Sponsor — Broadcast Brew (Low-Acid Coffee)* Order our LOW ACID COFFEE “THE BROADCAST BREW” Thank you to Cool Beans Coffee Brewery for your partnership. https://www.coolbeanscoffeemi.com/product-page/broadcast-brew-low-acid-blend *ABOUT THE DILLON ENGLAND SHOW* Authentic conversations with interesting people across personal growth, entrepreneurship, and lifestyle — direct, faith-forward, Detroit grit.

When John Truscott left politics to build his own PR firm, he didn’t realize how heavy the pressure would hit. Lost clients. Bare-bones months. Thirty paychecks depending on him. And he learned very quickly: if you won't show up, your business won't either. He remembers taking heat for voicing unpopular opinions as the governor of Michigan’s press secretary, and later navigating an unlikely merger with a competitor-turned-friend. Because success doesn’t come from playing it safe. Success comes from walking away at the right moment, having the uncomfortable but necessary conversations, grinding through calls, and remaining steady when cycles get brutal.

Ethan Lloyd built a marketing agency from scratch, landing major gigs with Detroit’s city government and helping both local florists and big names tell their story. He started starting small... $250 a month jobs and no experience. Then the real stories came out. The moment he realized he had no idea who supported or hated him. Why he’d rather work with real people, not liars or the ego-driven. And what kept him going when quitting felt like the only option.

Manager Jon slept on an office floor for eight months, tasting carpet between dreams and the grind. He built studios from scratch. Connected with creators who had millions of followers but were still broke. Turns out “followers” don’t pay bills. Brand clarity and speaking real numbers do. Top takeaways: -Break the silence about your struggles. -Track what your time is actually worth. -Build something anyone can grow inside of... even if you’re not sure how you’ll pay rent next month. Do you measure yourself against others, or against the version of yourself you’re fighting to become?

I sit down with Coach Bob Shenefelt, creator of the Visionary Forum and author of Unscatter the Chatter, and talk about the real ups and downs of entrepreneurial living. Coach Bob shares his stories of failure and self-discovery, including how he almost lost everything... financially and personally. Why do visionary leaders struggle to slow down? How can building the right team save your business? Why is identity and self-worth so tangled with what we build? If you’ve wondered if you’re the only one who struggles with doubt, burnout, and the pressure to keep going, you can't afford to miss this episode. #Entrepreneurship #VisionaryLeadership #BusinessGrowth **Connect with Coach Bob** Web: https://imatter.com/ **Connect with Dillon** Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thedillonenglandshow/ Twitter/X: https://twitter.com/imdillonengland LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dillonmengland/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/dillon.england.5 Sponsor — Broadcast Brew (Low-Acid Coffee) Order our LOW ACID COFFEE “THE BROADCAST BREW” Thank you to Cool Beans Coffee Brewery for your partnership.

What happens when your grandmother gives you $— and you put all of it into Bitcoin? That decision turned Erik Finman into one of the youngest Bitcoin millionaires in the world. In this episode of The Dillon England Show, we unpack his wild story: from buying Bitcoin at $10 a coin to hitting $1M at just 18 years old, and how that early win shaped his view on money, innovation, and freedom.

If you’re leading a team and feel like you’re always fighting fires, this one’s for you. Dave Feidner breaks down identity change, Level 5 leadership, the “change equation,” and how EOS gives teams a real operating system — not just another meeting. We get practical on aligning human energy, ending normalized dysfunction, and why your culture follows your habits.

“Fail, fail, fail”—except do it prepared. Today I’m joined by Omai Kofi—first-generation millionaire, strategist, and connector—to tear down the myths that keep people stuck. We trace her journey from welfare and odd jobs to 111 documented income streams and real ownership, including the “food-stamp card” identity shock, the 2015 pivot into investing, and how she engineered an environment that pulled her up instead of holding her down. Omai breaks down wealth vehicles that compound your efforts: infinite banking (using properly structured whole life to recapture dollars), real-estate equity plays (HELOCs, cash-out refis), and the principle that money should make more money than your labor. We talk heart-set vs mindset, why courage and preparation beat hype, and how to curate rooms with people who talk wealthy, act wealthy, and build durable systems. We also get brutally honest about accountability—including a missed mortgage payment that nuked a pristine credit score by 110 points, and the exact framework she used to reverse it without lying or blaming. If you’re tired of feast-or-famine and ready to build an affluent environment, this is your field manual: tell the truth, upgrade your circle, practice relentlessly, and let capital do the heavy lifting.

If you’re exhausted by the circus and just want straight talk, meet Joe D’Orsie—Pennsylvania State Rep for the 47th (Eastern York County). Joe’s the guy who goes home to his family after session, hosts real “Java with Joe” town halls, and votes with facts over feelings. We get into what actually hits home: term limits, keeping girls’ sports for girls, free speech on campus, and school choice that helps families—not systems. We walk through how politics should work—listen first, push good policy, skip the “keep my seat” game. Joe breaks down his Dads Defending Daughters Act (HB 1849), why anonymous campus “bias reports” need to go, and how he helped deliver a bipartisan win (HB 355) that toughened penalties for adults who prey on minors. We also hit AI and data centers at the local level, what it means to serve a district instead of a party, and why making law from raw emotion almost always backfires. If you want America-first results without the drama, this one’s for you.

Former NFL Super Bowl Champ Tony Hills opens up about the day the draft went sideways, the surprise call from Pittsburgh, and walking straight into a Super Bowl. He shares the quiet moment with Troy Polamalu that changed his money life forever, the standard Mike Tomlin demands, the culture Dan Campbell builds, and why the work you do in the dark eventually gets called into the light. We also go deep on fatherhood, faith, choosing to retire on his terms, and what he tells young athletes about purpose, decisions, and money when the noise is loud and the cameras are gone. If you have a dream, a family, or a team, this one will hit you.

This one hit different. I sat down with Driena Sixto, the new spokesperson for Turning Point Action, to talk about Charlie Kirk’s life, legacy, and the future of the movement. Driena has been with Turning Point since 2016, and she shares what it was like to hear the news of Charlie’s death, how the team is grieving, and why they’re more determined than ever to keep pushing forward. We cover her journey from a student at FIU to working directly with Charlie, the culture he built inside TPUSA, and the impact he left on so many of us. We also react to the White House tribute video and get real about faith, family, and how to make sense of something this tragic. If you only know Charlie Kirk from soundbites or headlines, I hope this gives you a clearer picture of the man, the mission, and why his legacy matters. Spend some time with this one. Pray for Erica, the kids, and the entire Turning Point family. And if you’ve ever thought about getting involved—now’s the time.

It’s called Caerusnet, and it’s helping small business owners build real connections without the drama, wasted time, or pointless rules. We talk about why Steve started Caerusnet after the financial collapse, what makes it different, and why facilitator-led networking might be the future.

Rebecca Friedrichs spent 28 years in the classroom, and what she saw broke her. Abuse, corruption, and radical ideologies protected by teachers unions pushed her out of the system and into the fight of her life. In this raw conversation, Rebecca shares what she witnessed, how she became the lead plaintiff in a Supreme Court case, and why she believes America’s education system has been weaponized from within. We talk about Rebecca’s experience witnessing abuse in the classroom, how unions protected bad teachers, and why she was forced to fund them.
