Description

Keith Yackey joins Travis to talk about the surprising overlap between making more money and having a thriving marriage. A former contractor, pastor, and real estate investor who built a seven‑figure online business in 14 months, Keith now runs Married Game, where he helps men become the most attractive version of themselves for themselves—and, as a byproduct, for their wives. From proof‑of‑funds tools in real estate to high‑ticket relationship coaching, Keith has consistently turned conviction, collaboration, and personal transformation into serious income.​


On this episode we talk about:




  • How Keith turned a painful separation from his wife Jessi into the foundation for Married Game and a business built on leading from what he actually lives​




  • The real estate proof‑of‑funds service that became his “easiest $2 million” and what it taught him about solving specific problems for existing audiences​




  • Why he believes being rich can be one of the most spiritual journeys you can pursue, especially if you grew up with “money is evil” messaging in church culture​




  • The mindset shift from needing to impress others to simply doing what you say you’ll do, paying people fast, and becoming radically non‑needy in business and relationships​




  • How surrounding himself with wealthier friends, adopting a white‑belt mentality, and paying off a 14‑year‑old $50k debt at a doorstep full of family changed his internal peace and external opportunities​




Top 3 Takeaways




  1. The same skills that make you good at business—having a great product, serving people well, taking responsibility—also make you good at marriage; most men simply refuse to apply them at home.​




  2. Money is a neutral amplifier and a scoreboard for value at scale; mastering it lets you contribute more to the causes and people you care about, instead of being a lifelong slave to financial stress.​




  3. Non‑neediness is a cheat code: when you keep your word, pay people quickly, and detach from impressing others, you become more attractive to high‑level partners, clients, and friends.​




Notable Quotes




  • “If you believed about business what most people believe about marriage—that it just gets worse after a couple of years—you’d never invest a dime in a company.”​




  • “Being rich might be one of the most spiritual journeys you can go on, because it forces you to become more valuable to the people around you.”​




  • “Do what you say you’re going to do, when you say you’re going to do it, without fault—that one rule has built my reputation and set me free.”​
