  • Ep 108: What Is Life Quietly Producing in You?
    Jul 2 2026

    You've been so focused on what you're building… you may have missed what's being built in you. That's what Episode 108 is about.

    What is life quietly producing in you while you're busy pursuing everything else?

    That's the question Melvin Larry has been sitting with — and in Episode 108, he unpacks it in one of the most reflective solo episodes of The Shattered Mindset Podcast yet.

    This isn't about goals or achievements. It's about the person being quietly formed through ordinary days, difficult seasons, and the small responses no one sees. It's about the difference between performance and identity. Between what you're building… and what's being built in you.

    In this episode, Melvin explores:

    • Why the most important growth in your life is almost invisible while it's happening
    • The danger of drift — and how comfort can quietly convince you that you've grown enough
    • How influence works even when you don't know anyone is watching
    • Why every season leaves something behind — and not everything that stays belongs with you
    • The difference between responding to today and reacting from yesterday
    • What it means to become the same person in every room

    If you've ever looked back on a season of your life and realized it was shaping you in ways you didn't recognize at the time — this episode is for you.

  • Ep 107: How Ordinary People Can Start Building Wealth | Tiffany Tyuse
    Jun 25 2026

    "What if building wealth isn't about making more money... but thinking differently about the money you already have?"


    Most people spend their lives working for money.

    Very few ever learn how to make money work for them.

    In this episode of The Shattered Mindset Podcast, Melvin Larry sits down with nationally recognized tax sale expert Tiffany Tyuse for a conversation that goes far beyond real estate.

    Together they explore the mindset of ownership, why so many people remain trapped in consumer thinking, and how everyday people can begin building wealth without waiting for the "perfect time."

    Whether you're interested in investing or simply changing the way you think about money, this conversation will challenge long-held beliefs and encourage you to see opportunity where others never look.

    Highlights

    • Why ownership begins with mindset

    • The difference between chasing income and building assets

    • Why most people never build generational wealth

    • How limiting beliefs keep people financially stuck

    • Why your job can become your greatest investment partner

    • The costly lesson Tiffany learned from emotional decision-making

    • Why building wealth starts with changing how you think

    Sometimes the greatest investment you can make...

    is changing your perspective.

    Watch the full conversation with Tiffany Tyuse on The Shattered Mindset Podcast.

  • Ep 106: The Man Behind the Mic: Melvin Larry Gets Interviewed
    Jun 18 2026

    For over 100 episodes, Melvin Larry has been asking the questions. In this episode, the tables turn — and the man behind the mic finally sits in the hot seat.

    What do you really know about the host of The Shattered Mindset Podcast? In Episode 106, longtime friend, business partner, and show editor Gary Jenkins flips the script — interviewing Melvin Larry about his life, his mindset, and the journey that led to 100+ episodes and counting.

    Recorded live in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic during an all-expenses-paid incentive trip, this conversation gets real, personal, and raw. Melvin opens up about his lowest professional moment, overcoming introversion as a youth, the belief that held him back the longest, and why commitment — not just a decision — is the only thing that makes change real.

    If you've ever listened to this podcast and wondered who Melvin Larry really is beyond the microphone, this is the episode for you.

    In this episode:

    • Why Melvin almost didn't become a podcaster — and what changed
    • The corporate career moment that derailed a path to senior leadership
    • How he overcame introversion and low self-esteem
    • The difference between plan-do-review and plan-do-report
    • Why affirmations without action are just noise
    • The one question Melvin wishes more people would ask him
    • What legacy and "mattering" really mean to him
