Casey Baugh: Selling, Suffering, and the Discipline Behind a Life Worth Building (Part Two)

In this episode of Case Studies, Casey turns the microphone around and becomes the subject, sitting down with Dan Snow to unpack the lessons behind a life built on discipline, learning, and quiet compounding. From selling satellite systems in Des Moines to losing everything he'd earned in a single month, Casey traces the moments that shaped his belief in economic self-reliance and lifelong education, formal or otherwise. The conversation moves through Casey's investment philosophy at Sandlot Partners, his take on specialization over well-roundedness, and the deals that taught him to bet on track record and trajectory. It closes on something deeper: faith, marriage, and the deliberate work behind a 22-year partnership with Chelsea Baugh. This is a conversation about growth as identity, not achievement. Entrepreneurs and leaders will walk away rethinking what it actually takes to build something, and someone, worth keeping.

Casey Baugh: Why Success Is Messy and Progress Equals Happiness

In this episode of Case Studies, the tables turn. Casey sits in the guest chair for the first time in 150 episodes, interviewed by his friend, Dan Snow. Casey opens up about building equity in Vivint before its sale to Blackstone at age 27, his late-in-life ADHD diagnosis, and the morning rituals, cold plunges, and Harvard executive education that keep him grounded. The conversation moves through faith, fatherhood, and the myth of the overnight success. Drawing on lessons from 150 interviews, Casey argues that success is never linear; it's messy, and that's what makes it human. He reflects on money as a magnifier, the difference between character and competency, and why progress, not comfort, equals happiness. Casey also speaks candidly about his marriage to Chelsea Baugh, twenty-two years of deliberate work behind a partnership that looks effortless from the outside. It's an unusually personal conversation about identity, discipline, and what it actually takes to build a life worth admiring.

Chelsea Baugh: On Spiritual Nudges, Business School, and Leading With Purpose

Chelsea Baugh returns for her third conversation on Case Studies, this time as a recent BYU MBA graduate, mother of five, and the one running the Baugh Family Foundation and family office. In this episode of Case Studies, Chelsea traces the winding path that led her back to school at forty, from a spiritual nudge to write scripture study posts, to a rejected application, to an unexpected pivot into business. She talks candidly about imposter syndrome, rewriting her own story, and why motherhood may be the best leadership training there is. The conversation turns to marriage, twenty-one years of it, and the quiet discipline of staying close through disruption. Chelsea also shares the vision behind Sandlot Impact, the new philanthropic arm she's building inside Sandlot Partners. A conversation about growth, identity, and the courage to jump into the unknown.

Todd Miller: His Mindset Behind Creating A Championship Culture

In this week's episode, Casey sits down with Todd Miller, longtime BYU Golf coach, mentor, and son of golf legend Johnny Miller, for a conversation about leadership, faith, mentorship, and the principles that shape championship culture. Todd shares the lessons passed down through generations of his family, the mindset that has guided his life and career, and why developing people will always matter more than developing players. From growing up alongside one of golf's greatest champions to coaching All-Americans and PGA Tour professionals, Todd reflects on the importance of character, conviction, and creating an environment where people can reach their full potential. Together, Casey and Todd explore what separates great competitors from great leaders, the power of authentic mentorship, and why success is ultimately measured by the lives you influence, not the trophies you collect.

Brian Murphy: Turning Broken Deals Into Billion-Dollar Structures

Brian Murphy spent thirty years building Portfolio Advisors from a bare office with no furniture into a firm that raised roughly $90 billion and delivered an 18.4% compounded return to its clients. In this episode of Case Studies, Brian sits down with Casey to trace that arc, from selling bootleg fireworks as a kid to restructuring a broken $395 million portfolio at twenty-nine years old, and ultimately building one of the most creative fund structures in private equity. The conversation moves well beyond deal mechanics. Brian unpacks the mindset behind solving problems no one else would touch, the discipline of building partnerships instead of hierarchies, and why he and his wife, Louise, chose to fund college educations for the children of their employees rather than keep more for themselves.

Adam Edmunds: Why High Performers Secretly Struggle With Feeling Enough

In this episode of Case Studies, Casey sits down with Adam Edmunds, CEO of Entrada and former executive behind companies like Podium, Allegiance, and SilentWhistle, for an honest conversation about ambition, identity, and the emotional weight that often comes with high performance. Adam opens up about the hidden struggle behind outward success; building and selling companies, chasing relevance, and quietly battling depression while leading at the highest levels of Utah tech. He reflects on the pressure to prove himself, the danger of tying self-worth to achievement, and the wake up call that forced him to reevaluate everything from leadership to relationships to personal fulfillment. The conversation explores entrepreneurship, product-market fit, burnout, divorce, fatherhood, reinvention, and what it means to build a life rooted in gratitude instead of validation. Adam also shares lessons from scaling Entrata into one of the most important software companies in the country and why creating meaningful impact now matters more to him than titles or recognition.

David Butler: Why Every Culture on Earth Points Back to God

In this episode of Case Studies, Casey sits down again with David Butler, a teacher of world religions and guide of immersive faith based trips, for the second installment of their four part series. The discussion moves from the Maasai tribes of Tanzania to a mosque in Turkey to the streets of first century Jerusalem, tracing a consistent idea. Across every culture, language, and tradition, people are reaching for the same thing. David unpacks why grace only exists in a messy world, why failure is often the doorway rather than the disqualifier, and why Jesus's ministry ran on a kind of inefficiency that modern leaders are trained to avoid: one-on-one presence over scale. For founders and leaders who default to optimization, this is a case for slowing down, sitting with the outlier, and finding meaning in what looks unproductive. David also shares how to join him on a future Jerusalem trip. This episode is for anyone rethinking how faith, leadership, and human connection intersect, especially those wrestling with how ambition and presence coexist.

Jeanette Bennett: Highlight Episode

In this episode of Case Studies, Casey sits down with Jeanette Bennett – award-winning journalist, founder of Utah Valley Magazine, and now a rising leader in commercial real estate; for a compelling conversation about reinvention, resilience, and the power of quiet ambition. Jeanette opens up about her early days growing up in Idaho, her fierce internal drive that led her to become valedictorian, and how motherhood sparked the entrepreneurial fire that would define her career. With no outside funding, she sold her home to launch her first magazine; a move that would go on to shape the voice of Utah’s business community for over two decades. They explore the realities of building a company from scratch, navigating gender dynamics in leadership, and what it looks like to gracefully transition into a new chapter of influence and impact. Through it all, Jeanette reflects on listening as a superpower, the art of celebrating others, and the quiet strength it takes to lead with both confidence and humility.

David Butler: Faith, the Cosmos, and the Road to Jerusalem

In this episode of Case Studies , Casey welcomes back David Butler for the first of a four-part series exploring faith ahead of a group pilgrimage to Jerusalem. David, who leads pilgrimage experiences to the Holy Land, joins Casey to unpack what it means to know God more deeply, starting with creation itself. The conversation moves from a desert night in the Sahara staring through a telescope at two billion solar systems, to the story of Job being pointed toward the stars, to why scripture's purpose isn't a history lesson but a portrait of God's character. David and Casey talk about the strange comfort of feeling small against something vast, why the wealthy and powerful become less accessible while God becomes more so, and how a friend's grief after unexpected loss became an unexpected testimony of connection beyond death. They also get personal, about the pull toward something bigger than daily life, the discipline of belief that lets you actually move forward instead of staying stuck in fear, and what it's like walking through the literal places where these ancient stories happened. David closes by sharing how listeners can put together their own custom trip to experience it firsthand.
