Reinvention isn’t a straight line, and growth isn’t always forward. In Episode 2 of Deal Flow Diaries, we sit down with Noah Neiman, co-founder of Rumble and founder of The Pack, for an unfiltered conversation about identity, discipline, and the courage to walk away from what’s working to build what truly aligns.

Noah shares his journey from accounting to nightlife, from teaching late-night classes at Barry’s Bootcamp to scaling Rumble into a global fitness brand, and why success forced him to confront a deeper question: Who am I building this for now? That period of reflection led to The Pack, a next-generation training concept rooted in presence, longevity, and real community, as well as Knuckle Therapy, a deeply personal brand inspired by loyalty, resilience, and showing up even on the hardest days.

This episode explores what it really means to rebuild, from the inside out.

Join us as we talk about:

• Why life (and business) is never linear, and how setbacks become teachers
• Building brands around belonging, not hype
• Turning lived experience into a competitive advantage
• Letting go of past identities to create something more honest and sustainable
• Why service, community, and rigorous effort are the strongest forms of glue
  
  

Whether you’re navigating a pivot, questioning your next chapter, or building something of your own, Noah’s story is a reminder that reinvention isn’t failure—it’s clarity.

Deal Flow Diaries is about real conversations with people who build, across industries, cycles, and identities. No fluff. Just the truth behind the work.

Real estate finance doesn’t have to be opaque. In the debut episode of Deal Flow Diaries, we sit down with Eric Goodman, co-founder and managing partner of Goodman Capital LLC, to unpack how disciplined private credit strategies are built—and sustained—across market cycles.

Eric shares the story behind Goodman Capital, a New York–based real estate private credit platform focused on senior-secured lending on high-quality assets, and the principles that have guided the firm through more than a billion dollars in closed transactions. From legacy roots in the 1980s to today’s data-driven approach, this conversation offers a clear, candid look at what conservative underwriting really means in practice.

Join us as we talk about:

• How Goodman Capital structures senior-secured private credit—and why entry point matters more than headlines
• Building a cycle-tested lending platform rooted in family legacy, patience, and disciplined underwriting
• Turning rejection, self-doubt, and nontraditional paths into long-term advantage
• Why breaking self-limiting beliefs around credentials and confidence is essential to building anything meaningful
• The compounding power of mentorship, team-building, and investing in yourself—plus Eric’s outlook on where capital can move safely today

Whether you’re an investor, operator, or simply curious about how real estate deals actually get done, this episode sets the tone for Deal Flow Diaries: thoughtful conversations, real insights, and no fluff.
