| The Future of Education? New Scientology Books for Kids Just Released | DDN Ep 29 | 01 Apr 2026 | 01:09:54 | |
For the first time, a full set of Scientology courses and books designed specifically for children has officially been released. Not one or two concepts. A complete system covering the core ideas, now simplified, illustrated, and made understandable for kids as young as 7. In this episode, Aaron and Brad break down what makes this release so different and why it could completely change how children learn about life, relationships, and personal responsibility. We're not talking about memorization or boring textbooks. We're talking about kids who actually want to study. Kids choosing to stay in course for hours. Kids learning how to communicate, handle emotions, take responsibility, and help others in a way that's simple, practical, and real. Aaron shares what he's seen firsthand with his daughter, who is fully immersed in these courses and more excited about learning than ever before. And the biggest question comes up… The episode dives into key concepts being taught to kids, like communication, honesty, control, responsibility, and understanding others. Not as abstract ideas, but as tools they can actually apply in real life. This isn't just about education. It's about raising a different kind of generation. If you're a parent, this conversation will make you rethink what kids are capable of learning and how early it can start. Link where you can find children's books: Follow us on other places:

| Public vs Private Schools: What is the Real Difference? | Head of School Jim Zwers | DDN Ep 28 | 25 Mar 2026 | 01:05:18 | |
In this episode, Aaron and Brad sit down with Jim Zwers, Head of Clearwater Academy, to break down what's really happening inside today's education system and why more families are leaving public schools than ever before. Jim has spent 25+ years running a school built on a completely different model… one that focuses on mastery, real understanding, and helping students succeed based on their own goals, not just pushing them through a system. They get into the real differences between public and private education, including why traditional schools often create gaps in learning, how students can go years without fully understanding the basics, and what happens when education becomes more about the system than the individual. Jim explains how their approach flips that model, focusing on mastering subjects before moving forward, rewarding production, and giving students a reason to actually want to learn. The conversation also dives into why more parents are pulling their kids out of public schools, the rise of homeschooling, and the growing concern around technology and its impact on children's ability to think and learn. And beyond education, Jim shares how tools he learned from Scientology, especially study technology developed by L. Ron Hubbard, helped him personally overcome struggles in school and build a system that produces confident, capable students. If you're a parent, educator, or business owner who's ever wondered why people coming out of the school system struggle to think, communicate, or produce… this episode will give you a completely different perspective. Watch the full episode to understand what's really happening in education today and what alternatives actually work.

| How Having Kids Helped Us Build a Successful Business | Whitney Cordovez | DDN Ep 25 | 04 Mar 2026 | 01:12:39 | |
In this episode of the Don't Do Nothing Podcast, Aaron's wife Whitney Cordovez shares how having children became the turning point in building their business and life. When Whitney and Aaron first started out, they had almost nothing. One income, credit card debt, uncertainty, and a lot of ambition. Aaron was trying different ventures without real traction. Everything changed when Whitney became pregnant. Responsibility became real. The pressure increased. The drive to produce intensified. Whitney explains how each child raised their standard. More responsibility meant more focus. More urgency meant smarter decisions. Aaron went through an intense programming bootcamp while she was pregnant. They risked money they didn't have. Then when launching an Amazon Business they tested products from home with babies in the background. At one point, they were barely profitable and had to completely change how they were operating. They talk openly about roles inside the marriage, decision-making, handling disagreement, and how long-term thinking shaped everything from family planning to business growth. Whitney shares why she believes in supporting your spouse's vision without projecting doubt, and how strong partnership creates stability both at home and in business. This episode is about responsibility, alignment, and turning pressure into production. Are you curious about yourself? Links mentioned in this episode:

Aaron Siepierski joins Don't Do Nothing for one of the most powerful comeback stories yet. Aaron grew up in a trailer park in Michigan surrounded by drugs, violence, addiction, police visits, and chaos. By 14 years old, he was smoking, drinking, using drugs, getting institutionalized, and headed down a path that easily could've ended in prison or death. Then everything changed. After being sent alone to Narconon in California at 14 years old, Aaron rebuilt his life using Scientology Study Technology, personal development, and relentless work ethic. Today, he runs multiple companies that are on track to do over $40 million in revenue this year, including estate sales, auctions, home staging, and real estate businesses with more than 45 employees.

He also shares unbelievable stories from the estate sale world — finding gold bars, $35,000 paintings, hidden collectibles, Motown memorabilia, and running auctions worth hundreds of thousands of dollars.

| Traditional X Boss Wife - What's the right approach in 2026 | Lucia La Rosa Spray DDN Ep 36 | 20 May 2026 | 01:25:26 | |
Lucia La Rosa Spray joins Don't Do Nothing for a powerful conversation on marriage, femininity, masculinity, family, Scientology, and what it really means to be a wife in 2026. Lucia was born and raised in Lima, Peru, before moving to America as a teenager. After experiencing her parents' divorce, losing two father figures, and going through years of partying, drinking, and trying to prove she was a "strong independent woman," Lucia began to realize that something was missing. In this episode, she opens up about how the breakdown of the family unit affected her, why a father figure is so important, and how growing up without that stable structure shaped the way she viewed men, marriage, and herself. Lucia also shares how meeting her husband, Steve Spray, changed her life. Through his commitment, communication, leadership, and example as a Scientologist, she began to see what a healthy relationship could actually look like. The conversation goes deep into the "boss wife" versus "trad wife" conversation, and why Lucia believes the real answer is not choosing one extreme, but becoming a woman who can support her husband, build a business, protect the family, and still remain feminine. She also talks about how Scientology helped her understand her own ups and downs, repair her relationship with her mother, take more responsibility, and build a marriage based on communication, trust, and purpose. This episode is about family, womanhood, marriage, responsibility, and why the future may belong to couples who know how to build together. Watch the full episode with Lucia La Rosa Spray now.

Brother Michael joins Don't Do Nothing Podcast for a powerful conversation on street violence, music, the Nation of Islam, Scientology, family, discipline, and spiritual purpose. In this episode, Brother Michael opens up about growing up between different religious influences, with a Muslim father and a Christian mother, and how confusion, anger, and street life shaped his early years. He shares how he was carrying a gun, smoking weed, surrounded by violence, and heading down a path that could have ended very differently. Everything started to change when he read a book that made him look at himself, his community, his relationship with his mother, and the way he was treating women. That one book shifted his perspective and put him on a path toward the Nation of Islam. Brother Michael also shares how the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan introduced him to Dianetics and Scientology, and how studying L. Ron Hubbard's work helped him understand the mind, confront painful experiences, and repair his relationship with his mother before she passed. The conversation goes deep into the role of family, marriage, responsibility, mental slavery, community rebuilding, and why knowledge can be a path to healing. He also breaks down what the Nation of Islam really means to him, how Scientology helped him become more cause over his life, and why art and music can be used to uplift people instead of destroy them. From street violence to spiritual purpose, this is Brother Michael's story. Watch the full episode now.

| Elena Cardone FULL Scientology, Christianity and Homeschooling Interview | DDN Ep 34 | 06 May 2026 | 01:10:54 | |
Elena Cardone joins Don't Do Nothing Podcast for a powerful conversation on Scientology, Christianity, homeschooling, marriage, motherhood, and building a life with real purpose. In this episode, Elena opens up about the early years of her life in Los Angeles, when she was acting, modeling, partying, and living what looked like a successful life from the outside. But internally, things felt unstable. She describes her life as a roller coaster of winning, crashing, feeling happy, then depressed. That changed when she started reading Scientology books and applying simple tools to her life. Her communication improved. Her career improved. Her decisions improved. And for the first time, she began to feel more in control of her life instead of being the effect of everything around her. Elena also shares how Scientology helped her become a stronger Catholic, a better wife, a better mother, and a more effective leader. Elena also gives a behind-the-scenes look at building an empire with her husband, Grant Cardone, real estate billionaire, speaker, author, and founder of the 10X movement. She breaks down why she and Grant chose homeschooling, how they raised their daughters with real-life tools, and why teaching children communication, finances, responsibility, and how to observe people matters more than memorizing subjects they may never use. This episode also covers her relationship with Grant, how they built aligned goals, how she overcame the idea that she didn't need a man, and why supporting your spouse can be one of the most powerful things a family can do. Elena's message is simple: confront what is not working, apply the right tools, and build a life that helps your family, your community, and the world.
