Jacopo Iasiello : Thank you. Thank you for inviting me to the show. I am super happy to share my knowledge and whatever I have in my heart, in my mind, to give to your audience and enlighten other people in business and from the heart to the internal part.

Trisha Stetzel: Okay. Beautiful. I’m really ready for this. I know when we spoke last week, I was very excited about the holistic approach that you take. First, tell us a little bit more about you.

Jacopo Iasiello : Yeah, like my story is a story of, uh, you know, the capacity to really young age, to have big desire. And I growing and I grow up in a loving family in Napoli, where I come from. Uh, my first part of my life, you know, is, uh, I dream to becoming a professional soccer leave my house a really young age and stay for a long time in other city in Italy to try to becoming whatever. I have my dream at that time to become a professional soccer. But unfortunately, I’m a big injury changed completely. The, the direction of of my life now is I don’t see any more, uh, like a big stop because how you know, life is a big map when you see, uh, for, you know, many years in your life, uh, you understand why something happening and something happening. Because I have this creativity inside me, and I need to bring more to the, uh, to people, to the business. And for this reason, I 18 years old, without any experience, any knowledge, any background Economically, family wise. I starting one company in Italy in the jewelry space with the money from the government and from over there after different mistake.

Jacopo Iasiello : I make this company multi-millionaire success. More than 20 shops I open in Italy create another company with a multi-million success in the same space, starting at 22 years old in Italy to invest in real estate, moving for the only reason to the desire to moving to have more in United States, to create more. Because my business lose revenue and I want more. I don’t want to be too. If I already becoming multi-millionaire at 28 years old, I want to have more. I want to create more. And for this reason, I moving in United States with a lot of pain, sadness and a lot of frustration. From this kind of moment, I developed some kind of method I utilize now every day. The method is MPB and now I do more the 400. You know, my bill is remaining, uh, you know, a couple of months ago in, in the Philippines. I create my portfolio of cash flow where I travel the world. And I am a creator of one editorial in Forbes called American Now, where I bring idea and business to entrepreneur in Italy, and I interview billionaire and multi-millionaire, where I coming from a friend with them and create business relationship.

Trisha Stetzel: So as you have built those relationships and had those conversations with these billionaires and millionaires along the way, what’s one mindset shift that you gained from those conversations that’s really changed the way you see success today?

Jacopo Iasiello : Yeah, I depend you know, what we have, in our mind when we are, you know, uh, positioned ourself and we downgrade knowing the in a good way because people they have more money or they are billionaires, they don’t they don’t means they are better of other people. They don’t have they have the other focus in, in business. But in reality, the majority of people I interview and with, uh, some of them in particular, three I am really friend, uh, you know, they are something special they think about outside the box. They are not scared about the judgment of other people. And they are try, uh, you know, with intention plus attention to create something more, not only for their, uh, only, uh, their interest, but to really enlight with the business, other people. And now I realized something. The big difference in life is, uh, the purpose you have when you go through your journey. A lot of people, unfortunately, they want to create something big, but in reality during the day they are frustrated. They are anxious. They don’t know. And this kind of emotion is in every human being. The big people, the people, they create big success. They are people. They know how management, this kind of emotion and they go through and they do action every day to bring the dream they have in their mind, in their reality. And this is what I feel with this billionaire. And they are really people they make every day action. And they they don’t feel the rumor around them. They have the vision clear. They have the clarity to go directly to the point they want.

Trisha Stetzel: That’s beautiful. And I love this holistic approach you have. So since 18, you’ve been working and trying to be successful and have become very successful in business. But you also understand that there’s some personal development that has to happen. So how do those two things, personal development and business development, actually come together to create this holistic success for you?

Jacopo Iasiello : Yeah, I think so. Like the both, you know, we have 12 aspects in our life. And unfortunately, uh, you know, a lot of people of my age, I have 41, uh, you know, we grow up with an idea where you need to be a man is a man, uh, you know, only egoistic, uh, need to do business. Business is business. Yeah. But in reality, you possibly you need the buildings around your business. Because if you don’t build something around your business, you will arrive at one point where you missing some part of your life. And I believe, because I am, uh, real, really concrete human being to have the quality of life in 12 aspect. It means I focus in business the majority of my time during the day, but I formalize the relationship in love, in friendship, in family, and the other in career, in another aspect of my life. Because what’s happening, a lot of people, they forgot one of this aspect, and when they realize they’re missing some part of their life, they have like 3 or 4 divorces. They lose the family, they lose friendship, they lose everything. In reality, the most successful people is people. They create not only business, but they create the business. Plus of quality of life.

Jacopo Iasiello : Quality of life is means have no balance. I don’t like this word balance, but energy in the other aspect of their life where they bring this energy in business, where they create more and uh, touch other people life. Because I believe in something so important. I believe in holistic aspect. What this means now I believe in create energy first from inside every day in the morning and go outside to create abundance. Because without external abundance, everything we have in mind don’t really mean nothing because we don’t possible touch other people’s life. But if we create this combination where the internal part go out and create more beautiful thing, this beautiful thing possible, touch other people. If you are good art, if you are an a good entrepreneur and a businessman, you create more money for you, your family. You possible touch other people in your community. You possible touch other human being during your day because you have more possibility to touch other people. Otherwise, if you don’t have the possibility to pay your bill to don’t you know to have struggling the every day, you don’t have no energy and no possibility to really enlighten the human being only with the word, but with no action, you know.

Trisha Stetzel: Mhm. That’s beautiful. So what was I can tell all of the passion that you have around personal development and business development. And I like to know what inspired you to write a healthy, rich and happy?

Jacopo Iasiello : Yeah, because I believe in for way how create uh, you know these three words and I know only believe. But every day I maintain this three word I working in this three word. The reason why I come out with this idea. Because in my, uh, when I grew up, I grew up in a loving family, but with a lot of difficult around me. I have people they go in the different direction of respect in my life that they utilize drug. They, uh, go in in different way, in different aspect. And when I grow up, thank God my family give me my face, the correct direction, the correct, the correct way. But I need because nobody give me nothing. Uh. Build something with my mind, my body and the divine source. I believe every day. And what’s happening when you build something. I believe in each aspect of our life. We have four ways to create this. First of all, research. Second of all, grow in what we research. Third of all, we do action at the four part contribution. This book coming because I want to contribute to other people to understand becoming healthy, rich and happy is possible, is achievable. And if you’re working every day with intention plus attention with a clear strategy, how to generate energy in your body, your mind and how through real estate. What I am expert. What I do every day in my life. You possible really becoming wealthy because wealthy is a process where you go through with simple, uh, clear aspect to generate energy in your mind, your body and to go with action in the direction of what you want.

Trisha Stetzel: Mhm. So I know people are already wanting to connect with you Iacopo. So what is the best way for people to find out more about you or even connect with you.

Jacopo Iasiello : Yeah. First of all, you know I need to ask something because, uh, I, you know, my main goal is to sell in my first year, more than 18,000 book. And with the only reason I don’t make money in this book, I, uh, I donate all the money to one association over here in Miami called Hermano de la Calle, where I already help them with some of my property where I give the best price respect to the market. Uh, and this will money will give to them. But the second aspect I believe this book really possible change mentality, give practical action to the people they really believe in this three word and the possible. Find the book in Amazon and I really, uh, suggest with all my heart this book possible change, uh, your way to really create action with something concrete. This method is a method changed my life. A real estate change completely. My quality of life, the capacity to travel the world and everything. And it’s possible for everybody. And I share inside this book called this information. They possible find a book in Amazon. Uh, in with healthy through my book through my website healthy rich and com and a possible connect through my uh, Instagram in Jacopo investor broker where I share, uh, you know, knowledge about real estate, information about the article I wrote for Forbes, uh, and real estate aspect. You know, the part I believe, uh, I this part possible change people’s life.

Trisha Stetzel: That’s beautiful. And thank you for sharing that. All of the proceeds are going to such an amazing organization. So if you’re looking on Amazon, you can either look for healthy, rich, and happy, or you can look up the author’s name. Jacobo j j c o o. Last name is I a s I e l l o. You guys can find him there on Amazon and know that all of the proceeds are going to that amazing organization. I will also have the links in the show notes so you guys can point or click if you’re watching this show from your computer. Uh, Jacobo, I would love to learn a little bit more what you want to share about the MPB method that you’ve written about in your book?

Jacopo Iasiello : Yes. Um, like this method is something is not a external method, but is how I am right now. Because how, you know, uh, whatever you do for more, you know, the 20 to 30 day, whatever is the case becoming your habit, uh, you know, your part. And this method now is I do every day when I wake up at 430 in the morning. I do, uh, you know, the M is for morning and meditation. I wake up early in the morning and meditate. I take time to reflect. I utilize mantra to calm down my mind. When I wake up and, uh, the other two. Second pillar is called pray. Because I believe how is important now to connect with the divine. Whatever is your belief. If you believe in God, if you believe in, uh, you are Hindu, you are in Jewish, you are Muslim, whatever is the case. But the important part is do the correct, uh, you know, connection with the divine. Now think about something. I grew up in a Catholic family. I remember, like my grandmother and grandfather, I loving them, uh, you know, they teach me how to pray, but they don’t teach me how to connect. This is the different. And now I understand why. Because when you want to create something more in your life, you need to connect with the Divine Source. Whatever is the whatever you believe how you connect. First of all, I pray for something. For somebody with a clear intention to save something or somebody or some situation around me or in in the world, whatever is the case and after with the same clarity, I visualize and I ask to God what I need to do during my day, what I need to do with the clarity of visualization where I see all my day, all my interview, all my, uh, you know, capacity to negotiate the deal with real estate, whatever is the case.

Jacopo Iasiello : And this one is the second aspect where bring me the energy and the third one I utilize different device biohacking. And this is another word. And the fourth one is exercise. I utilize correct exercise for my age, my body, my quality of of of my body. Plus I integrate with the correct supplement. And this is a really, uh, you know, big, uh, bomb of energy. I create this 1 in 1 hour of my day, and after I’m ready, uh, you know, early, uh, respect other people to have the possibility to utilize in the correct way my day. Because for my case, I’m working really good until 2 p.m. and after my energy go down. But for 430 in the morning around, you know, noon one, I have this energy and I’m really focused. And this one, give me this method, give me really the possibility to achieve new result, new opportunity and go through the motion. Everybody will go. Frustration, sadness, uh, insecurity, whatever is the case. Because everybody we have this with the majority source of energy.

Trisha Stetzel: Yeah, I love that. I was listening to one of your other interviews, and I heard you say you get up at 430 and I said, yes, this is amazing. I found this space for myself when I get up early that I have time to reflect and prepare for the day, instead of just rolling right into someone else’s meeting. Uh, and I love this. So what? What is. I heard you talk a lot about action, and that’s really where the rubber meets the road is taking action. So as you think about your book and this method, what’s one piece of advice that you could give to the listeners around just taking action. What’s that one step they could do or take to get started?

Jacopo Iasiello : First of all, you know, I believe I will give you one, uh, in the holistic aspect to great energy, one in the business, because I believe in this two part connect together. The one started to meditate soon is possible because meditation is free. You don’t need to pay anybody. It’s go to the source of yourself where you have. You find the creativity, where you find opportunity, where you find, uh, connection. Everything is inside you. But meditation, in particular, transcendental meditation, when I do engage completely in my life, is the place where you find wherever you need to build your life in the correct way. And meditation is the first one. The second aspect is starting to invest in real estate as soon as possible because real estate, whatever is the economy or the market or the situation, is the most powerful place to becoming wealth and multimillionaire. Why? Because you have the possibility to leverage what you buy. You have the possibility to buy something without money. You have the possibility to Or really add the value to investor like me or private lender to add the value when you create a build, some source of deal for them means these two aspects will change completely. Your life. And if you started to working in this two aspect, nothing coming from one day to another one. But if you apply for one year and working really hard in yourself and in real estate, whatever is the economy, you will really have a different quality of life.

Trisha Stetzel: That’s beautiful. Two things that we can do right away. What would your advice be around meditation? Because I’m thinking there may be some listeners who heard what you said, but they don’t know where to start when it comes to meditation.

Jacopo Iasiello : I think so, like meditation, you know, I really believe in the, uh, in the Maharishi. Maharishi is You know where I learned the meditation? Transcendental. Uh, and the something is a really, really good, uh, here in the United States, but in other parts of the world, because it’s the only intention is to deform this powerful method, what it means if you have the possibility. No economic because it’s the cost is really, uh, nothing. Uh, but I really believe this kind of meditation, the transcendental is the more easy. And I will share. Why? Because other kind of meditation, they give some kind the way to think about to do something. In this kind of meditation, you need only repeat the form of mantra where you go deeply, automatically when listening your mantra with your word in your mind, and soon or later you will find some kind of emotional sensation where you will be in a place where your heart will be in peace. Your mind will be in peace. And in this moment. And it’s not nothing theory, but scientific is proved with a lot of documents from university. And I explain in the book where why meditation is so important, in particular transcendental meditation, because you go to your source, you go to your place where I every time try to share this analogy, is the place where you go in a beautiful lake, where you have the possibility to see your face in the lake with clarity, without any kind of, you know, the wind or any kind of turbulence in, in, in your life.

Trisha Stetzel: Mhm. Wow. Okay. So method morning. Pray biohacking and exercise alongside of being great at business. And you talked about real estate. So for someone who wants to start building wealth through real estate because they heard you say this is a really great place to get to, to play in, right? Um, but they want to have a balanced life as what you’ve described. What’s the first step that you would recommend they take when it comes to real estate investment?

Jacopo Iasiello : I think the real estate now, you know, think about when I arrived in 2011. I don’t speak English. I don’t have any kind of connection. I don’t know how it’s working. The tax, nothing over here. And I need to learn like a baby. Like learn and cry like a baby. Because I’ve been, uh. I remember, like, one, uh, one day I don’t have the possibility to connect the light in one in my first apartment, uh, in Brickell. Because the other, uh, part. They don’t understand me because I don’t speak English. I try to connect and they read through Google Translate the word. Now, uh, you are in the most beautiful country called United States of America. This country give opportunity for everybody. The possibility to start in real estate is really easy. What you need to do, first of all, learn. And you have a different, uh, aspect to learn through book. For example, if you buy my book, you will learn a lot how I find opportunity, how I find deal, how I find the website to find opportunity, how I find people help me to find opportunity through YouTube. You have a lot of good information and you know, after you need to be practicable action person. What this means, whatever you read, you need apply. And when you started to apply, the real estate is the one place where you don’t need the money. I will repeat at infinite you don’t need the money. What you need is find opportunity. This is the most important I believe and I know only believe, but I study from this multi millionaire and billionaire.

Jacopo Iasiello : Why the three part of our life is so important. We have time, we have knowledge and we have money. If you have knowledge and time, you possibly utilize this time and knowledge to serve somebody. Have the money. My first experience in real estate is starting from, you know, utilized sun my money. But during other kind of opportunity I bring to other investors because I don’t have my own money to buy something. And this is how it’s working. Real estate means find the opportunity and the knowledge to understand real estate is really possible through book and through, uh, you know, a lot of information you find in, uh, YouTube or everywhere and after do action, practical action, find opportunity is calling real estate bird dog means people they find this opportunity bring to somebody like me an investor or money lender. Uh, and you know, they possible like, if they do some kind of deal with me like this, they will take one, uh, you know, percentage of the opportunity or if they want to do for theirself, the United States give one of the most beautiful opportunity receive money to go to Harmony lender. People lend the money with high interest, without have any kind of credit or nothing. Why? Because when you find opportunity, people will give you the money and will give you because they believe in what you do and they believe they will make money on you you know.

Trisha Stetzel: Mhm. Yeah, absolutely. It’s all about opportunity and taking action on that opportunity. Right. All right. Yeah. Uh, doctor Iasiello your book again. Happy or excuse me? Healthy. Rich and happy. You want to sell? Did you say 18,000 copies? Is that the goal?

Jacopo Iasiello : Yes, it’s my goal.

Speaker4: Okay.

Trisha Stetzel: All right. We’re going to help you do that. 18,000 copies. You guys go out to Amazon, look for healthy, rich and happy. Or you can look up Doctor Masiello’s name and you can find him as the author there. So as we wrap up today, if you could leave the audience with one piece of advice on how to live all three of those at the same time healthy, rich and happy, what would it be?

Jacopo Iasiello : Yeah, first of all, you know, create one good routine in your life because you have two options in life good routine or bad routine. The bad routine will bring you in the opposite direction to what you want to go. The good routine, like a method I share with you. Like a way how really working in your day will bring you to the correct life and the correct capacity to generate this reward. And after I want to share with you something to have this three word every day in your life healthy, rich and happy. You need to be realistic. You need to understand like it’s so important. Not the final goal, but the journey. You will go through this final goal. Because when you arrive at the final goal of year after you achieve, you will tell to yourself when you see in the mirror and that’s it. This is what is. Life in reality is important. The journey, the moment where you are sad, the moment you are frustrated. The moment where you try something is not working and over there is where you build your healthy, rich and happy life because you will go through this emotion and you will have some source of good routine. They bring new energy in your life and they will bring new opportunity and new business because this is how life is going. When you have good routine, you will have good life and you will becoming or you will be healthy, rich and happy. If you have bad routine, you will go in the opposite direction where nothing will, uh, have, uh, distributed in your life.

Trisha Stetzel: Beautiful. Thank you so much for being with me today. It has been my pleasure to host you. Uh, would love for anyone who’s listening today to go out. And please buy this beautiful book, healthy, Rich and happy. And tell us again who will be receiving, uh, all of the money from the book sales.

Jacopo Iasiello : Yeah, they will receive a, like, for, uh, you know, an association called Hermano de la Calle is an association over here in Miami where how I share before, I believe now. And this is my main goal to create a fund of, uh, you know, where, like, uh, working on some project of real estate. I already have in mind. I already working with some city over of here in Florida, where I don’t only invest in real estate, but in real estate and make money in real estate. But but where my real estate work will impact other human beings. And I believe real estate is so important because if you think about, uh, when you go back to your house, your house is your nest where you will have your energy, where you, you know, receive the energy for the house. And I have in mind to bring to the world the same concept of real estate, where, you know, the person will go in the house and leave their house, not only leave their house, but they be recharging their house because they will receive from sound, energy, light, uh, book uh, and other AI tools. Uh, the possibility to really recharge, uh, battery and mind.

Trisha Stetzel: That’s beautiful. Thank you again for being with me today, doctor. Jacopo. Yes. Yellow. It’s been wonderful having you today.

Jacopo Iasiello : You’re really welcome. I really appreciate it, and I hope so. This conversation will bring, uh, in people, life, new idea and new possibility to create more and to share more with other human being.
