  • Building Wealth Without Losing Yourself (With Bill Lodge)
    Feb 20 2026

    Building wealth should not cost you your mental health, your family, or your identity.

    In Episode 2 of Built Different, Tim Rocco sits down with Bill Lodge, President of Kings of Capital, a nationwide hard money and private money lending firm serving real estate investors across the country.

    This conversation goes beyond lending and real estate.

    They dive into the real side of entrepreneurship. Anxiety. Depression. Leadership pressure. The emotional highs and lows that come with building something meaningful.

    Bill shares how he has navigated leadership at scale while staying grounded, protecting his mental health, and surrounding himself with the right people. From real estate investing and private lending to mentorship and resilience, this episode breaks down what it actually takes to build wealth without losing yourself in the process.

    In this episode, they cover:

    • Building wealth through real estate investing
    • Hard money lending and private capital insights
    • The mental health challenges of entrepreneurship
    • Leadership pressure and emotional resilience
    • Why asking for help is a strength
    • Protecting your identity while scaling success

    Kings of Capital provides hard money loans, bridge loans, and private lending solutions for real estate investors nationwide. They help investors flip properties, fund rentals, and scale multifamily investments with confidence.

    But business growth only works if personal growth keeps pace.

    If you are an entrepreneur, investor, or leader trying to scale without burning out, this conversation is for you.

    You can build wealth.
    You can protect your peace.
    You can do both.

    Never finished. Always building.

  • The Right Environment Changes Everything (With Rick Houser)
    Feb 6 2026

    In the first episode of Built Different, Tim Rocco sits down with his team leader and business partner Rick Houser to talk about one of the most overlooked drivers of success: environment.

    Tim opens up about growing up without structure or guidance, seeing success without balance, and learning the hard way that your past doesn’t define your future — but the people you surround yourself with absolutely do. Together, Tim and Rick break down how culture, standards, and the right room can completely change the trajectory of your life and business.

    This episode sets the tone for the podcast — real conversations, no hype, and no shortcuts.

    In this episode, they cover:

    • Why environment matters more than motivation
    • How the right people accelerate growth
    • The difference between success with balance vs burnout
    • Leadership, standards, and building something bigger than yourself
    • Why business should be a vehicle for freedom, not stress

    If you’ve ever felt behind, overlooked, or capable of more — this show is for you.

    You don’t need a perfect start.
    You need the right room.

    Never finished. Always building.
    This is Built Different.
