How We Got $51M of Land Deals in 9 Days...
A vlog from a land investing entrepreneur based in Bali covering the launch of an AI-powered deal flow feature that processed $51M in land deals in 9 days. He also shares personal updates including the death of his bulldog Bruce during routine surgery, reflections on life in Bali, and hints at a future marriage proposal.
Summary
The video opens with the creator sharing two lifestyle updates from his Bali home: replacing a daily coffee delivery habit with a home espresso machine to reduce plastic waste, and demonstrating his unique morning fitness routine involving self-named stretches like 'Zen swings,' 'the zombie,' and 'the robot,' followed by jump rope. He emphasizes that physical movement grounds his mindset for the day.
The main business highlight is the launch of 'DealFlow,' a free AI-powered disposition management feature inside his platform Land Insights. Released 11 days prior to filming, it processed $51 million in land deals and $20 million in projected profit within just 9 days — with only 20% of users having adopted it so far. He speculates that a billion dollars of land could move through the platform in the next 12 months. He also mentions hiring a third acquisition manager, aiming for 20 deals per month, recently paying taxes, and owning a semi-truck storage property generating $10K/month in gross rents.
On the coaching and education side, he announces one-on-one coaching inside 'Leah 2.0,' his flagship land investing program, priced affordably at roughly the cost of a steak dinner per month. He also confirms a rebooking of his investor event for Q1 2027, expanding to 50 attendees with a larger venue, and highlights 'hot seat' coaching sessions as the most impactful format from the current year's event.
The most emotionally significant segment involves the death of his English bulldog puppy Bruce, who passed away during a routine cherry eye surgery when his lungs filled with fluid — possibly due to an anesthesia allergy or a pre-existing cold. He and his partner Sarah rushed to the vet to find Bruce on the operating table during CPR. He draws a parallel to a dog named Sequoia who also died two years earlier in April under similar vet-related circumstances, which had catalyzed their move to Bali. He reflects that Bruce's death has intensified his desire to become a father and prompted him to reconsider his slow approach to marriage, hinting that a proposal may be coming soon.
The vlog wraps up with gym footage at a rooftop gym in Uluwatu where he trains calisthenics and martial arts, a beach day with Sarah, and a plan for a home-cooked Wagyu steak and pasta dinner — a deliberate effort to stop eating out every meal. He closes with reflections on work-life balance and the value of unplugging on weekends.
Key Insights
- The creator claims DealFlow, a free AI disposition manager built into Land Insights, processed $51M in land deals and $20M in projected profit within just 9 days of launch — with only 20% of users having adopted it yet.
- He argues that the death of his dog Bruce, like the death of Sequoia exactly two years earlier, is not a coincidence and carries meaning — believing both losses served as catalysts for major life changes, with Bruce's death accelerating his desire to propose and start a family.
- He claims that 6 months ago he completely abandoned bodybuilder-style training in favor of calisthenics, martial arts, and flexibility work, describing his current focus as skill-based training including one-arm hangs and kicking technique.
- He describes his flagship coaching program Leah 2.0 as priced at roughly what 'a nice steak dinner' costs per month, framing extreme affordability as a deliberate strategy to drive 1,000 new investors through the program in the current year.
- He reflects that years of treating weekends as normal workdays was effective for getting ahead, but that as he's gotten older he finds he's more productive with a push-pull approach — working hard during the week and pulling back on weekends, citing the concept of the Sabbath as having merit even without religious belief.

[0:00] $51 million of land moving through the platform in 9 days. Crazy thing. Perhaps in one of these upcoming vlogs, I will be engaged. There always something with these bikes, man. Since I've moved in Bali a year and a half ago, I never got a coffee machine. Literally every morning we ordered coffee. And so yesterday we just got this thing called Indo espresso. So it's [0:31] like a little cure egg setup but with only Indonesian coffee from all the different Indonesian islands. So it's like $300 to $450 a month on coffee which is so weird. But that wasn't even the main thing. It was just all the plastic of getting it delivered and the cups…

Why Our Land Sells 5x Faster

Why Success Can Feel Like a Roller Coaster
The speaker reflects on a personal lie they've internalized since adolescence: that self-worth is directly tied to results and achievements. This belief creates emotional volatility and boom-bust cycles, prompting ongoing efforts to maintain composure and decouple identity from performance outcomes.
The Reality of Running a Business
The speaker reflects on a disappointing May following their best month in company history. Key performance indicators are down across the board, with only 4 properties sold against a target of 8-10 per month. However, the speaker notes there is still time remaining in the month to turn things around.
I Started Taking Peptides
The speaker shares that they recently began taking a peptide blend called the 'Wolverine blend,' consisting of BPC-157 and TB500, starting on Monday. The primary motivation is improved recovery. This marks a shift from their previously minimal supplement approach.
Five Minutes Can Change Your Body
