Andre Popa was born in Communist Romania. His family made the journey to America when he was 9 years old with nothing but each other. No English, no money, no choice but to work hard as a family to survive. His parents were both Electricians as their “assigned trade” back in Communist Romania, so taking that skill set, they did whatever jobs they could find, and eventually started their own company. After all, that was the “American Dream”!

Andre worked alongside his family as an Electrician throughout his childhood, on top of selling whatever he could get his hands on… avocados, candy, newspapers, and puppies!

As a young adult, his entrepreneurial spirit was taking flight and he ventured out beyond Electrical, into Design & Construction. He quickly discovered he was a natural people person, and his connecting skills, along with his extraordinary vision and unique designs landed him multiple high-profile projects, including designing and building homes for numerous celebrities. He had definitely found his niche in creating, building and connecting!

In 2000, he met Tami Popa, a kindred spirit. They quickly put their entrepreneurial heads and hearts together, and through the years have built several successful businesses, on top of raising two beautiful girls, now teenagers.

Andre has never been satisfied with the status quo, and constantly strives to achieve new levels of success, or as he says … Badassery!

It’s this mindset that sets him apart from the rest, and keeps him hustling.

In 2017, he transitioned out of their traditional businesses, to pursue his dreams and passion projects. One of which was to take his years of experience as an entrepreneur, and passion for teaching and helping others, to the next level.

This was the launch of Badassery Factory, a place where anyone from anywhere could go through the Factory and come out a BADASS … In life, relationships and business!

Today, Andre runs his dream businesses from his cell phone, inspiring and empowering others to unleash their inner Badass, and travels the world with his family!

That is his “American Dream”!

When MeiLani’s 2-year-old son was diagnosed with brain cancer, it was the wakeup call she needed in life. She realized it was time to stop making excuses of all the reasons she couldn’t do things, and instead just start doing. Instead of focusing on the “Why Me?” situations she chose to capitalize on the “Why NOT Me?” attitude.

She jumped into her lifelong dream of real estate investing in flipping houses. After years of watching AirBnB’s growth and wanting a piece of the action, she acted on her “Why NOT Me?” mantra and opened her first 4 AirBnBs within the next 4 months. When we jump, we jump big. We are constantly opening (and closing) Airbnbs as we refine the areas we want to be in and the properties that work for us.

Now MeiLani she is mentor and coach that works with those who want to use systems to run and scale their Airbnb business and making sure it is a passive stream of income instead of taking over your life.

Christy Risco was a 4th grade teacher for 5 years, before realizing that although she has a passion for teaching, growing and giving – the Public-School System was not the place for her to shine bright.

After dating for 3 years, in 2011 – Ramon and Christy attended a Tony Robbins seminar called Date with Destiny. During the 6 intense days, they realized that they were ready for a big, bold step in their lives! They moved in together while simultaneously starting a new Real Estate joint venture Flipping REO properties in the Miami market.

Within 2 years of working and living together, they were both at their rope’s end. The relationship was practically nonexistent and their finances did not reflect the amount of hours and energy they were putting into their company.

After working with several life coaches and continuing on in their self-discovery journey, they began to make several adjustments to their current life situation- including getting an office and taking several personality tests to hone in on what they were really good at and what they needed help with.

Once they drew that line between personal and business space, things started to shift. Next, they hired a Business Consultant, who advised them to start looking for staff, even though it was scary for both of them to “give up” control in the business. This led to growth and a new direction for the company. Within 2 years, with a Property Manager and an Acquisitions Rep on payroll, they were able to grow their business to 7 figures and acquire over 100 units of rental properties.

In 2016, the couple had a daughter, Valentina, and again this started to shift the direction of their lives and business. They decided to sell off most of their portfolio and eventually close the office to enjoy more freedom and time with their toddler.

They are currently in the Private Lending space and take pride in having amazing relationships with all of their borrowers, who they consider family. They each are part of Mastermind Groups and run their own Mastermind Experiences in Miami. They believe in growing, networking, inspiring & giving.

Within this transition, many of their colleagues and friends started getting intrigued by their success both at home and in business. After much brainstorming, they realized that all of their success has come from working together to make things happen, no matter how difficult things seemed to get. Through this personal reflection – Both on Board was born. Both Ramon and Christy are passionate about helping and inspiring couples to work and play together in a way that serves each other, the business and the relationship as a whole! “Helping Entrepreneurial Couples Thrive” is what they are about and helping them create IMPACT in the world!

Anthony Moore started his real estate career in 2004 cutting his teeth selling land across the country and into the Bahamas. His first year in the business he sold over 30 Million Dollars in Real Estate. The first 6 months were spent cold calling 100 or more clients day booking tour after tour…But soon he was asked to join the largest privately owned real estate developer in the country. Once on board as a full-time sales agent, he absolutely crushed the competition. In less than 2 years, Mr. Moore’s real estate career exploded achieving the Rising Star Award as well as the circle of excellence award in his field for selling over $30 million in real estate in a single year. Anthony was a part of a 20-man team that broke national records in sales volume in one day. In a small town in Columbia South Carolina, Anthony and the team sold over 780 honesties totaling more than $180 million dollars real estate sales on that day. This small team did it again in Boone North Carolina selling an astounding 154 Million dollars in undeveloped land just as the real estate market started to crash in 2007. He’s worked with international clients, professional baseball players, and was used as in a national sales training video for land developers as the “undercover agent”.

The experience I received from selling raw land has been the most valuable experience in my life. When you don’t have a tangible product to showcase it forces you to use your imagination with the client you’re with to build their dream. When you learn how to take someone from concept to creation through a set of stories it becomes the most powerful thing on earth you can ever learn.

After 3 short years dominating the land development arena Anthony joined forces with his long-time friend to form Pike Properties and Pike Realty in Charlotte, North Carolina. The two set out to start a flipping business that did just a handful of transactions the first year but exploded thereafter. Today the firm has completed over 350 transactions and has an average ROI of 26.44%. Pike Properties primary focus is now in the spec home building arena with an average price range of $800-1.4M.

Anthony is often referred to as “Professor Moore” in the industry. He’s is a certified online distance educator (Arello) and has had the privilege of hosting over 500 hours of live virtual trainings in real estate. He’s been a keynote speaker for various coaching platforms, a ghost writer for 2 bestselling books, and has been the featured expert for many publications.Professor Moore is a self-proclaimed self-help junkie. Many of his passions outside of real estate include learning about the mind and metaphysics. As a Certified NLP Practitioner, Reiki Master, and Certified Personal Trainer he strives to be the best version of himself he can possibly be.

One of the greatest gifts in life is the ability to learn something new. When I learn something that excites me I simply can’t stop the thought and want to immediately learn it to its fullest and implement it. It’s a follow your gut approach that has never failed me and keeps me ALIVE inside! That same passion is carried through with everyone I coach. There’s always been a sincere burning desire in me to help individuals be more than they ever imagined. The hope is that I can help as many people as I can break the defeating patterns, reframe their life with endless possibilities, and help them jump into the life they were meant for.

~May the Best of our Past be the Worst of our Future
