Shaahin Cheyene invented one of the biggest designer drugs of the 90’s called Herbal Ecstasy when he was 15 & by the time he was 18 he sold over $350 million per year. Fast Forward a couple of years and by his 20’s he sold over $1 Billion worth of product. Herbal Ecstasy was the nootropic pill that sparked the Smart Drug Movement & Shaahin Became King Of The Thrill Pill Cult and a very famous entrepreneur at a very young age. Later, down the line Shaahin invented digital vaporization & was the innovator behind the Vape and Vaporization Wave. Shaahin founded Vapir, the first publicly traded vaporizer company. He has sold over $350 million on Amazon & now he is now a leading eComm and Amazon expert helping people create recurring revenue using the Amazon platform.
Shaahin is the author of the new book, ‘BILLION: How I Became King Of THe Thrill Pill Cult’. Chris Voss the former head of International Negotiations for the FBI said this about Shaahin’s new book, "Shaahin embodies empathy and he demonstrates it in his approach to life, allowing both sides to experience a true, win-win If you can draw out others' aspirations, hopes and dreams for the future, you can demonstrate how you can affect change in others. In Shaahin’s book ‘Billion’ he shows you how he did it!"

~ Interviewing Billionaires, Billion Dollar Founders
& the World's Most Interesting People ~
Today on the podcast, we have the former CEO of everyone’s favorite Mexican grill, Chipotle. Monty Moran was the co-CEO of Chipotle, growing their valuation from a few million to $23 billion over his decade with the company. They went from 8 restaurants to 2,000 globally, from a few hundred employees to over 75,000. His whole philosophy of leadership is centered around love. Truly hearing, seeing, and understanding the people around him, and working to make each of the 75,000 Chipotle employees better and happier every day.
Love is Free, Guac is Extra is Monty's most recent book sharing his story of building Chipotle into the global chain that it is today. During his time with Chipotle Monty met one-on-one with somewhere around the number of 20,000 Chipotle employees making this a foundation to understand what his employees were going through, and used this strategy to build a culture that took Chipotle from a regional burrito chain to a global superstar.
Today, Monty shares behind the scenes of Chipotle, the decision making processes they used, how he managed priorities, and the incredible culture that allowed for this rapid growth!

Thirteen years ago, I came across a book that I had no idea would change my life as much as it has. That book was called The 80/20 Principle. I read it, and immediately applied what it said to my life seeing results in a matter of a few days. I continued to apply the method as much as possible throughout the years using it in both my business and personal life.
Little did I know 13 years later, I would be so fortunate enough to interview the author of the book. Richard Koch is our guest today and we are going to dive down the 80/20 rabbit hole with him on what this method is, and why it actually works in all areas of life. How you can use it as a superpower to generate significant amounts of money, and be happier, healthier, and maintain better relationships.
Richard himself is a very successful entrepreneur, investor, & consultant working on and investing in hotels, restaurants, the distilling industry and the internet gaming industry as well. Richard has used the 80/20 Principle to make a fortune from several private equity investments and “retiring’ by the age of 40!
