What's your best investment? According to today's guest, Christopher Panagiotu life on Earth is more than just existing – it's a continuous journey of growth and learning. We must keep moving, evolving, and seeking new experiences to truly live fulfilling lives.
Welcome back to another episode of Better Call Daddy! In today's episode, we delve deep into the fascinating and thought-provoking journey of Christopher Panagiotu.
At the heart of this interview is the exploration of life's purpose and the power of personal growth.
Christopher shares his experiences of overcoming a challenging relationship with his father and the profound impact it had on his path to becoming the person he is today.
With faith as his guiding light, Christopher discovered the importance of staying in motion and continuously striving for growth.
Join us as we unravel the significance of choice, love, and faith in shaping one's legacy. Get ready for a deeply inspiring conversation that will leave you pondering your own purpose in this journey called life. And when in doubt, Better Call Daddy!
Christopher A. Panagiotu, the CAP in CAPitalize, was introduced to investing at the tender age of 10. Fast forward to 18 and he accepted an internship at one of the largest wire house firms in the world, UBS. After three quick years of college at the University of Oregon, something was not sitting right with him, so he joined Morgan Stanley for a short stint where he quickly realized corporate life was not in his wheelhouse. Chris was extremely blessed to have discovered Lucia Capital Group and in 2015 he began his journey to grow what is now CAPitalize Your Finances. In his nearly seven years at Lucia Capital Group, Chris built his practice from scratch, going from $0 to nearly $100M in that time span.
Chris is a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNERTM Professional and a Certified and Chartered Retirement Plans SpecialistSM (CRPS®, conferred by the College for Financial Planning). He holds the following licenses with LPL Financial: series 7, and series 66. In 2020, Chris was recognized as a Five Star Wealth Manager* by the Seattle Times.
The CAP in CAPitalize is not your average financial advisor or financial planner by any means. Chris is the original CAPitalizer: one who is absolutely obsessed with profoundly understanding what there is to know about their passion. This translates to a striving push to perfection for clients’ outcomes and although there is no such thing as perfect, a CAPitalizer does not need to justify their knowledge with big words from Wall Street, complicated graphs, charts, or talking over people. A CAPitalizer wins based on loyalty, stewardship, and unwavering commitment to their family, friends, clients, and colleagues, which results in the overall growth and positivity within the CAPitalizer’s community.
This is what Chris is all about.
Outside of the office, Chris hosts the podcast “CAPitalize” (available on Spotify), roots for his Oregon Ducks, and most importantly, loves spending time with his wife, Stephanie. He gives thanks to God for every blessing that comes his way.

Welcome back to another episode of Better Call Daddy! Today, we have a powerful and deeply personal story that explores themes of obsession, trauma, mental health, and the complexities of family dynamics. In this episode with Kate Wallinga, our speaker takes us on a journey through her experience as a psychologist, a parent, and a grieving individual. We delve into her encounters with a patient who stalked their professor, the challenges of diagnosing and dealing with manipulative behavior, and the weighty decision to cut off ties with their own mother. We also explore the importance of support systems, the impact of negative experiences on personal growth, and the difficult process of grieving a loved one who died by suicide. Get ready for a raw and thought-provoking conversation as we dive deep into the complexities of human relationships, personal struggles, and finding strength in the face of adversity. So, grab your headphones and get ready for Better Call Daddy: The Safe Space for Controversy.
Kate Wallinga is the host of Ignorance Was Bliss podcast. This is a podcast about how we become who we are — about making just about anything sound normal, from PTSD to podcasting to serial murder. It’s about people’s stories. Are you sure you really want to know?
Kate spent her entire professional life in the fields of mental health and criminal justice. Her favorite, hardest and most important work was specifically in the fields of correctional psych, forensic psych, and crisis assessment.
She grew up in upstate New York, and went to college near the Canadian border; her first psych internship was actually immediately next to the bridge between Ogdensburg, NY and Johnstown, ON. After that, she studied criminal justice and mental health counseling in Boston, then spent several years in New Hampshire. She’s worked in the NH State Prison system, a couple of different locked psychiatric facilities, and then several emergency rooms and eventually all manner of community settings.
Kate broke her back in 2014, and while she can move around a whole lot better than she could then, she still often feels stuck, as an acquaintance once pointed out, sitting on her couch listening to true crime podcasts all day. One thing I’ve noticed is that, quite often, she would hear someone ask, “But why would he do that?” or, “How could that happen?” or, her personal favorite, “Well, that’s crazy. That could never happen to me.” After a while of talking back, alone, long after they had moved on to new things, she decided to give the podcasting thing a try. She does give some background, of course, but she’s not trying to create a deep-dive, detailed, narrative style podcast. That has already been done, brilliantly, by so many people she admires. She can’t see any reason to try and compete with them, or even just add to the noise, when she already cannot find enough hours in the day to listen to everything she’d like to hear. Her goal, instead, is to try and answer some of those questions, at least from her own perspective. She doesn’t pretend to have all, or even most, of the answers… but she can usually come up with one or two.
Over time, the focus of her show has widened to include the normal, the average, the ordinary, that all of us can understand… but we continue to think of ourselves as somehow screwed up, weird, wrong. We’re not. You’re not. Honest.
Just make sure you really want to know. Because the most important certainty I carry, from all my time working with inmates and patients and onlookers, is that the only real difference between “us” and “them” is a key. And that everything we experience, from crippling anxiety to serial murder, is maybe not rational, but there is a logic to it. Kate can make things understandable.
And once you learn just how easy it can be to fall into the darker parts of life, you might think,”…I felt better before I knew that.”
Because sometimes… Ignorance Was Bliss.

Over the last 2 decades he has rehabbed & repositioned over a thousand more units.

He currently controls hundreds of units including single & multi-family residential properties as well as multiple types of commercial properties.

He is published in multiple articles in various Real Estate, Investment, Business, Family And Homeschool publications.

On this episode of Better Call Daddy, we dive into the evolution of entertainment and media. From comic books to streaming platforms, we explore how market forces have shaped the way we consume content. With the rise of video on demand and audio on demand, viewers now have unlimited options for watching shows or reading comic books at their convenience.
This abundance of content has led to a saturation of offerings, with independent creators forming their own brands. We discuss the challenges of keeping up with the ever-expanding world of characters and iterations, such as Spiderman.
Our guest emphasizes the importance of passion in podcasting and other forms of media, highlighting the rarity of podcasts with over 100 episodes. As the podcasting industry becomes more niche, we uncover the secrets to success, including telling a compelling story and having dedicated listeners. Influencers and the desire for attention in media are also explored, along with a heartwarming anecdote about a passionate fan's encounter with a member of the Wu-Tang Clan.
Additionally, we emphasize the importance of community involvement and staying connected with current events. Our guest shares personal experiences, including their son's upcoming senior year and the expectations of finding a job and being responsible. A trip down memory lane transports us to a childhood moment involving a treasured China Hutch, unexpected guests, and a frightful encounter with Margaret Hamilton, the famous actress known for playing the Wicked Witch of the West.
We also delve into the complexities of fatherhood, as our guest shares their unique relationship with their son and the unconditional love they strive to provide. The influence of grandparents, small-town traditions, and the power of mentorship are acknowledged, highlighting the importance of individuality and effort in achieving success.
We discuss the role of luck, the value of preserving memories, and the joy of cherishing loved ones, particularly in light of the pandemic. The speaker's personal journey takes us through experiences of loss, resilience, and community engagement, culminating in a powerful radiothon that raised millions of dollars for a local children's hospital. We learn about the speaker's sister's battle with Burkitt's Lymphoma and the lasting impact it had on their life's purpose.
The podcast concludes with an inspiring message about karma and the power of putting good into the world. This episode of Better Call Daddy is filled with heartfelt moments, profound reflections, and thought-provoking insights that will leave you inspired and eager to make a difference in your own community.
Sean Dillon loves to hear the word yes. Who doesn't? His grandparents were special people, who lived through the great depression and had amazing stories from their time in the Army Air Corps and as a Speech & Hearing Pathologist. Their stories are lost to time because they were never recorded or saved.
That’s on him. Beyond the Mic Podcast was created because our world is a rich tapestry and everyone has a story.
His boss once had someone pushing an interview with an American Idol contestant. He didn’t want to do the interview. He poked his head in his office and said, “I got it.” That star told him the four to five minutes of boilerplate interview stuff, but in the last 3 questions, the guest opened up in a new way.
From one conversation five years ago now over 400 where there is always one piece of gold left in the pan at the end of their time together. Sean wants to help people record their favorite stories so they are saved forever.
Before he begins he asks you to keep in your head one question. “Will you share with us your story?”
While still playing on the air he had great interview opportunities that never made it to air. Some were due to length, others were because of the topic. It was time to flip the table on the rules. Any topic/guest is welcome, but you must tell a story & go 'Beyond the Mic.' It's a conversation series with the best actors, artists, authors, and people you need to know. Every guest is shared with authenticity, honesty, and originality giving you content you need to share with others.
Sean A Dillon isn't his real name, but he is the storyteller who wants to tell your story. He was born on the Island, moved around the country because of his parents, and currently lives in Lubbock Texas. and will always see you down the road.

In this episode of Better Call Daddy, we explore the captivating realm of collecting and safeguarding objects with significant meanings and the intriguing narratives that accompany them. Together with fellow podcaster Alicia Araujo-Elatassi, from Vibes by Alicia podcast, I embarked on a collaborative interview with the Founder of the Choosii app, Shirley Yu.
Shirley and I established a connection via Twitter, and when Alicia discovered the subject matter, she eagerly jumped on board. After all, who doesn't know someone with a penchant for collecting?
As a former photographer, Shirley understands the value of storytelling and emotional connection in a consumer-driven world that often prioritizes quantity over quality.
We explore the shift towards appreciating artisanal and tangible products, emphasizing the desire for emotional attachment and learning the story behind brands. The episode takes an exciting turn when Shirley discusses the idea of social collaboration within collecting communities.
She suggests that by collaborating and sharing knowledge, collectors can enhance their collections and ensure the items find appreciative new homes.
The concept of connecting collectors through technology is explored, with our speaker sharing insights from her own app designed to help collectors find meaningful connections and discover hidden subgroups within larger collecting communities.
Personal stories and memories also come to the forefront, as Shirley recounts her early experiences living with grandparents in China, surrounded by scientific backgrounds and a love for stamp collecting and photography. These childhood memories, as well as the preservation of their grandpa's stamp collection, hold great significance, who believes that the true value of an item lies in the memories and connections it holds, rather than its monetary worth.
Throughout the episode, Shirley reflects on the power of names and identity. She shares her own collection, appropriately named the Shirley Collection, which includes items that hold contextual stories, such as clothes with their name sewn in by their grandmother.
The importance of knowing and embracing one's own name is a lesson passed down from their grandparents. As always, Better Call Daddy uncovers the hidden gems and stories behind everyday experiences.
Whether finding treasures in garbage rooms, connecting collectors through technology, or preserving memories and identities through meaningful collections, this episode is a testament to the power of storytelling and the appreciation of objects with a rich history. Join us as we dive into the world of collecting on this captivating episode of Better Call Daddy.

Having mastery over ourselves is crucial, and Michelle Manu, our guest today, is empowering women to embrace control. It's important to recognize that we possess more power than we often realize. Michelle is breaking down the stereotypes surrounding female warriors and remains steadfast in her convictions. The strength of our beliefs holds tremendous influence. Better Call Daddy: The Safe Space for Controversy.
On this episode of Better Call Daddy, Michelle Manu discusses the cultural practice of the warrior art, lua, and its historical biases towards Hawaiian women. Michelle is highly proficient in all weapons and aims to empower more people in practicing lua to keep the cultural practice alive. Michelle emphasizes the importance of self-awareness and the power of metaphysics to understand oneself. She believes in the power of thoughts and affirmations to manifest desires and emphasizes the need to shield oneself from negative energy and stimulating external factors. Michelle advocates for non-attachment and transparency in dealing with grief and attachment. Lastly, she expresses her journey and challenges in finding mentors for her cultural background.
Michelle Manu is internationally known for her accomplishments as a 10th Degree Black Belt, Alihikaua(General), and Kumu Lua(teacher) of the indigenous Hawai’ian cultural practice and martial, the Lua (Kaihewalu and Manu lineages). Kumu Manu is currently the only high-ranking female teacher of this art and currently the only public representative of a Hawai’ian woman warrior in over 200 years. She is presently the only woman to be given the designation of “Knight Commander” of the Royal Order of Kamehameha I (O’ahu Chapter), for her continued work in protecting, promoting, and perpetuating the Hawai’ian culture through the Lua.
Previously Kumu Manu toured the Midwest as a professional Polynesian Hula dancer and choreographer for ten years (1990-2000). Today she uses the Hula dance to teach Lua as she believes it is essential for timing, balance, placement, and micro-body movements during close-quarters combat. This is what Kumu Manu teaches at UCLA, and in her system – Nā Koa (The Warriors) and Pā Lua O Manu. She began working with Honolulu Community College in the Native Hawai’ian Program in 2022.
Using the Lua and Hula, Kumu Manu teaches self-protection to people in high-risk environments such as pilots and flight attendants, real estate professionals, healthcare professionals, university students, adult entertainers, women experiencing domestic violence and homelessness, and everyday women. Kumu Manu’s required system of study also includes ways of the ancient warrior: metaphysical science (Pohihihi), warrior massage (Lualomi or Lomilomi Koa), and wellness (Olakino) and conditioning (Ho’olā’au).
Kumu Manu has been a legal professional for twenty-six years. She has earned a Juris Doctorate (JD), business credentials from George Washington University, business credentials from Harvard Business School and George Washington University, a master’s degree in Metaphysical Science (MMsc), and is a 2023 candidate for a PhD in Philosophy with an emphasis in personal transformation.
Kumu Manu has been featured in magazines such as: Black Belt Magazine, Hawaiian Airlines Hana Hou!, Martial Arts Xperience, Inside Kung Fu, Sports Illustrated, Martial Arts Masters Magazine, Seni Beladiri (Malaysia), Tae Kwon Do Times (Korea), USAdojo.com, KenpoGirl, Herstory, Martial Arts Illustrated UK, Warrior Magazin (Germany), Martial Journal, Immersion Labs, and El Camino The Way(Spain). Some of the noteworthy awards she has been given:

Great segment with Celia....so much confidence and wisdom from a young lady. Her makeup tips were on point especially coming from a woman that does not know how to put on makeup and pay others when I need it done for special occasions. The most I do myself is eyeliner, mascara, and maybe some foundation...then of course I keep my eyebrows groomed via threading. Love to hear the resilience that she stopped doing cartwheels but then she found her drive back again over time and she is working on pursuing her dreams and exploring all avenues of creativity when it comes to her future aspirations. Great segment Reena you all kept the conversation rolling and interesting from mother/daughter scoop
Reena is absolutely awesome! Don’t ever miss this podcast!
Woooow!!
Hot!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥
