This Isn't Another Recorded, Overplayed “Webinar.”

What This Actually Is

Live. Interactive. A real next step.

  • Live on Zoom with Tim — and I mean live
  • The framework, the principles, the math, my personal experience
  • A self-assessment and 5-year plan sheet for everyone who shows up
  • A specific next step relevant to where you actually are
  • No pressure. No obligation. No pitch-fest.

Straight Answers Before You Register

No fine print. No games. Here's exactly what you're registering for.

Is this actually free? Or is it a 90-minute pitch?
It's free. And it's not a pitch-fest. You'll get the framework, the principles, the math, Tim's personal experience, and a specific next step you can take. For people who want to go further, there's an option available inside the room — no pressure, no obligation. Just an option for people who are ready to move.
How long is it really? I'm protective of my evenings.
90 minutes, live on Zoom. Show up on time, leave on time. You'll be participating, learning, and writing things down — this isn't background-noise content. Block the time, close your other tabs, do the work.
Will there be a replay if I can't make it?
No. This is intentional. The session is live on Zoom — and I mean live. The self-assessment, the 5-year plan sheet, the Q&A, the next step — all of it is for people who show up. If the date doesn't work, register for the next one that does.
Do I need a certain income or experience level?
No. This is for capable, hard-working people who've checked the boxes — career, income, savings, house — and still don't feel financially secure. Whether you're brand new to investing or you've tried things that didn't work, you'll get a framework that meets you where you are.
Is this only for Canadians?
No. Trust Your Talent Academy has spent nearly seven years helping both Canadians and Americans build real, lasting financial security through real estate investing. The framework, principles, and math apply on both sides of the border.
I've read the books. Listened to the podcasts. What's different here?
What you need isn't more books or another podcast. It's a framework you can actually follow. That's what 90 minutes with Tim gives you — and a specific next step that's relevant to where you actually are.
