A One-Day, Full-Immersion Experience in Fort Myers, FL
Are You Building a Business, or a Cage?
For the South Florida Entrepreneurs and Leaders Who’s Tired of Being Trapped by Their Own Success, And Ready to Build the Business and Life God Actually Called Them to Lead.
Date: January 23rd, 2026
Time: 8:00 AM – 2:00 PM (Followed by High-Value Networking)
Venue: Caloosa Sound Convention Center – Fort Myers, FL
You started this business for Freedom.
The freedom to call your own shots. The freedom to provide for your family in a way you never could with a job. The freedom to build something real, something that lasts, something you could be proud of.
You saw a future where you weren’t just a guy with a truck and a toolbox, but the leader of a team, a pillar of the community, and the master of your own destiny.
But if you’re being honest, that’s not where you are right now.
Somewhere between the quotes, the payroll, the phone calls that never stop, and the fires you have to put out every single day… the dream got lost. The freedom you were chasing was replaced by a cage you built yourself.
You’re not lazy. You’re not a bad person. You’re not even bad at what you do.
You just never had someone show you how to run the business side of your business.
That all changes on January 23rd.
Mind Your Business 3 is where Southwest Florida’s CEOs + Leaders come to get their fire back
It’s where they find clarity in their numbers, purpose in their leadership, and the community they’ve been praying for. This isn’t another boring seminar. It’s a full-blown, high-energy experience designed to help you Reset, Rebuild, and Rise.
From 13 Years of Struggle to
100x Revenue in a Single Year
Don’t just take our word for it. Meet Nick Aylor. For thirteen years, Nick was grinding it out, feeling like he had no direction. His wife, Rachel, was praying for a breakthrough, for someone to come into his life and give him guidance.
“We had come on the back end of some crazy things, personal stuff in our life. And it’s like, what direction do I go? Thirteen years in business, where am I going? What am I doing?” - Nick Aylor
Days after his wife’s prayer, the phone rang. It was John Huffman. Nick took a leap of faith, invested in himself, and plugged into the systems and community you’re about to discover.
The result?
“We 100x our revenue in one year. To say it out loud is even more insane.”
How? It wasn’t about a magic pill. It was about a fundamental shift that starts from the inside out. It was about rediscovering his identity, casting a vision for the future, and implementing the systems to get there. It was about getting in a room with other men who were on the same mission.
This is the power of what happens when you decide to Mind Your Business.
This Isn’t Just Another Event.This is an Extraction
Most business events throw a bunch of tactics at you. They talk about lead generation, social media hacks, and the latest software. You leave with a notebook full of ideas that you never implement, feeling more overwhelmed than when you arrived.
Mind Your Business is different.
We believe the tactics don’t matter if the foundation is cracked. We believe you can’t build a kingdom on a foundation of insecurity. We believe you can’t lead a team if you don’t know who you are.
As co-founder John Huffman says, this event is about extraction. We are here to pull out the leader, the visionary, the man of God that’s been buried under years of stress, self-doubt, and bad habits.
“The real motive is we want you healed. We’re gonna talk about the pain and the purpose for the pain.” - John Huffman
This is where we go deeper. We don’t just give you KPIs; we give you your Identity. We don’t just give you a marketing plan; we give you a Vision. We don’t just give you spreadsheets; we give you Systems that create real freedom.

From Three Heart Attacks to a
Rock-Solid Foundation
Derek Calson
Meet Derek Carlson, CEO of Realty ONE Group MVP. Two years ago, he was scared. His business was under attack, and he suffered three heart attacks in a single week.
“I realized if I died then, I would have left my wife and kids a mess. That’s when I met John Huffman and Bryce Lawrence. I made a decision to get around real operators. At the time, I had no operating system, no KPIs, and no real sales offer. Week after week, they helped me rebuild my business from the ground up. No hype, no fluff, just system, structure, and clarity.”
Today, Derek’s foundation is solid. He’s not just surviving; he’s thriving. And he has a message for you:
“Listen, I’ve spent over $100,000 in one year on personal development from some of the biggest names in the business. Let me tell you, the value that Bryce and John deliver for $97 at Mind Your Business 3 is unreal. Are you gonna wait for tragedy to force change, or are you gonna take action now?”
Meet Your Guides for the Day
This event is led by men who have been in the trenches, who have faced the fire, and who have built their businesses and their lives on a foundation of faith and integrity.
John Huffman
The Fire
John’s story is one of radical transformation. From juvenile detention centers and an ADD diagnosis to building a multimillion-dollar construction empire, he is living proof that your past does not define your future.
John’s superpower is igniting the “why” in leaders, helping them master the systems and processes that create freedom while grounding them in the biblical principles that create a lasting legacy. He’s not a motivational speaker; he’s a catalyst for real change.
Bryce Lawrence
The Framework
Bryce is the strategist who makes the numbers make sense. He’s helped hundreds of contractors go from flying blind to taking full control of their finances.
His OPS (Operating Profit System) is a game-changer, breaking down complex financial concepts into a simple, actionable framework that doesn’t require a finance degree. He’ll show you how to find the bleeding, price with confidence, and build a business that is profitable by design, not by accident.
And a Roster of World-Class Guest Experts…
Brady McDonald
The Zero to 100 Mindset
An ultra-endurance athlete and real estate mogul who went from tree arborist to building a multimillion-dollar empire. He’s running thousands of miles to raise $1 million for Make-A-Wish and will challenge you to embrace the “crushing process” required to scale your business and your life.
Shawn French
The Determined Society
A former pro athlete turned performance coach whose podcast is one of the fastest-growing mindset shows online. He’ll be hosting a LIVE podcast on stage, diving deep into what it takes to lead with purpose and turn adversity into advantage.
Derek Carlson
Unlock Your MVP
The CEO who rebuilt his business after a near-fatal health crisis. He now leads over 1,100 realtors and will share the keys to mastering your Mindset, Vision, and Purpose.
Lauren Maxwell

The Most Valuable Asset is the Person Sitting Next to You
This is more than just a stage presentation. The magic of Mind Your Business happens in the room.
“It only takes one relationship, one door to open to change your business. Just one door. I believe that door will be opened by coming to this event.”
- Nick Aylor
We are intentionally curating a room of world changers and community leaders. You will be rubbing shoulders with:
This is where you find your future business partners, your mentors, your friends, and the support system you’ve been missing. This is where an abundance mindset replaces the scarcity that has been holding you ba ck.
