Show Notes: https://retipster.com/279-seth-drehle-ewan/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=podcast&utm_content=7IyMC0H4Bek A lot has changed since Seth Drehle-Ewan first appeared on the REtipster Podcast. Back then, he was a young land investor building a business with his brother, Bryce. Today, they're running a very different operation, focused on larger land deals, minor subdivisions, and a more targeted real estate strategy. But this conversation goes far beyond land investing. About a year ago, Seth experienced a severe case of Ramsay-Hunt syndrome that completely changed his life. We talk about what happened, how recovery has impacted his identity, business, and relationships, and what it's like trying to navigate a major health challenge while still leading a company. We also discuss how the land investing industry has evolved, why Seth moved away from the traditional "guru" playbook, the advantages of working with family, and the importance of building a business that reflects your own strengths and values. If you're interested in land investing, entrepreneurship, resilience, personal growth, or adapting to major life changes, this episode has a lot to offer. 0:00 - Introduction 1:34 - How Seth found land investing 4:44 - Why he wants to leave Colorado 9:15 - Do cheap land deals still work? 10:43 - Why they shifted to subdivides 12:59 - What's changed in land investing 16:45 - Why neutral letters win 18:23 - Beliefs he no longer holds 20:19 - The problem with guru thinking 22:43 - Working with brother Bryce 24:44 - Hidden advantages of family business 27:02 - What happens when one partner disappears 30:51 - How business strengthened family ties 34:10 - The health crisis begins 41:19 - Recovery and rebuilding 47:22 - Identity after illness 54:05 - Rethinking health and nutrition 57:57 - Using AI to understand health 1:00:00 - Life lessons from adversity 1:00:00 - Building a business with perspective #retipster #landinvesting #landinvestor #landflipping #landbusiness #realestateinvesting #realestate #entrepreneurship #smallbusiness #subdivide #landdevelopment #businessstrategy #healthjourney #ramseyhuntsyndrome #familybusiness #mindset #resilience #realestatepodcast #landdeals #vacantland *📊 Manage Land Deals Like a Pro with Stride CRM* https://go.retipster.com/stride/yt-7IyMC0H4Bek *Land Portal: The Data Edge Every Land Investor Needs* https://go.retipster.com/landportal/yt-7IyMC0H4Bek (REtipster Affiliate Link) *🙋🏻‍♂️ Get the REtipster Newsletter (It's FREE)!* https://welcome.retipster.com/newsletter/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=podcast&utm_content=7IyMC0H4Bek *🚀 Land Investor’s Action Plan (Free 5-Day Course!)* https://tools.retipster.com/land-investing-action-plan/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=podcast&utm_content=7IyMC0H4Bek *⚠️ Land Buyer’s Survival Guide (Free 5-Day Course!)* https://tools.retipster.com/survival-guide/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=podcast&utm_content=7IyMC0H4Bek *👉 10X Your Income from Land Investing* https://welcome.retipster.com/webinar-invite/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=podcast&utm_content=7IyMC0H4Bek *😀 Join the REtipster Forum!* https://forum.retipster.com/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=podcast&utm_content=7IyMC0H4Bek *🛠️ All My Favorite Tools and Resources 🛠️* https://retipster.com/resources/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=podcast&utm_content=7IyMC0H4Bek
