Eco-Luxury Glamping Next to Zion: Real Estate Reimagined

🎙️ Welcome to Healthy Happy Wise Wealthy!

In this energizing and wisdom-packed episode, Mary Meyer sits down with Roger King, a second-generation real estate investor with 30 years of hard-won experience. Roger's story begins with a jazz-drumming dream and a $10 budget, driving for dollars in a Honda with no air conditioning, and winds through wholesaling, luxury custom homes, private lending, and mobile home parks, all the way to an eco-luxury glamping resort he's now building on a mountainside near Zion National Park.

With humor and refreshing honesty, Roger shares the strategies that let ordinary people start with little, the trust structures that protect your capital, and the mindset tools, from tapping to "just do it", that help him recover faster when deals go sideways. His guiding philosophy, durability over glamour, runs through everything. This episode proves that with grit, the right knowledge, and a willingness to solve problems every single day, real estate can build a truly remarkable life. You've got this.
