31. Balazs W Kardos - Building Wealth & Prosperity for Personal Freedom

Balazs W Kardos is the CEO and Founder of the Global Prosperity Movement. In the past 6 years, he has been able to impact tens of thousands of people’s lives by helping over 1,000 people quit their jobs, and over 150 people in his company earning $250,000 to $500,000 per year with his systems and training.

Balazs shares his story of adversity starting from having to immigrate from Hungary with his family for better opportunities. There were many moments that shaped Balazs’ life into who he is today, at a young age he remembers building a resentment against money in the way it had impacted family negatively without it. As a result, he saw arguments and ultimately, his family breaking apart. As Balazs grew older, he turned that resentment into motivation to make money so that his family would not have to feel those kind of negative financial impacts anymore. 

Balazs also shares that another pivotal moment in his life was the death of his father which impacted him very deeply. He shares many memories of his father that he sees as motivation for his work today. 

He truly believes that you are the writer of your own story and you also have the ability to completely change your future and reshape where you want to go.

About the Podcast

University of Adversity
Real stories and tools to help you grow through adversity, burnout, and reinvention.
University of Adversity is a show about the moments that change us — especially the ones we didn’t ask for.

I’m Lance Essihos, and I sit down with athletes, bestselling authors, doctors, entrepreneurs, spiritual teachers, and everyday warriors to have real conversations about adversity — the kind that strips away the surface and forces us to face who we really are.

We go deep into the mindset shifts, emotional breakthroughs, and practical tools that helped them rebuild. Not just to survive, but to come back stronger, clearer, and more aligned.

This isn’t motivation.
It’s what happens after the breakdown, when you’re trying to put the pieces back together and make it mean something.

If you’re in a season of uncertainty, burnout, or reinvention — this show is here to walk with you.

We don’t just talk about getting through the hard times.
We talk about who you become because of them.

Lance Essihos

As an experienced veteran with adversity, Lance has faced some of life's most difficult challenges. Grinding his way through the hockey ranks to traveling the world as a bartender. Through his personal battle with drugs and alcohol for well over a decade, the tragic loss of his brother to suicide followed by the great loss of his father to cancer only a year later, Lance realized he had hit rock bottom. In the darkest of days, he made a promise to himself that he would create a new life, one that would make an impact and inspire the masses, leaving the world in a better place than he found it. Lance has made it his mission to facilitate the message of positive change through adversity and encourage people to see the light through the darkness of life's worst moments.
