In this episode of Veteran Ventures, we talk with Dan Sepulveda — a Navy corpsman who served alongside the Marine Corps in Afghanistan before transitioning into a thriving career in real estate in Hawaii.
After saving six figures while on active duty, Dan purchased his first condo and never looked back. His focus on competency, discipline, and daily improvement helped him grow from a new agent to the principal broker of a firm with over 200 agents. But his success wasn’t just financial — Dan shares the turning point that changed his mindset, the influence of stoicism, and why curating your environment and thoughts is essential after the military.
We cover:
How Dan went from enlisted sailor to real estate leader in Hawaii
The power of saving, financial literacy, and taking calculated risks
Why mindset and personal development matter more than ever post-service
How to rebuild your tribe after the military
