Luis Hernandez on Bouncing Back from Major Setbacks in Life

Luis Hernandez on Bouncing Back from Major Setbacks in Life

What does it take to rise after losing everything—your business, your home, and the comfort of stability—with two toddlers looking up to you?

In this powerful episode of the Find Your Leadership Confidence Podcast, host Vicki Noethling speaks with Luis Hernandez, a first-generation college graduate and real estate entrepreneur who redefined resilience. Luis shares his incredible journey from growing up in an inner-city immigrant family to building a real estate empire—only to watch it all collapse during the 2008 housing crisis. Instead of giving up, Luis moved across the country, rebuilt his life from scratch, and started a new chapter as a business owner, father, husband, and six-time World Marathon Majors finisher.

Hear Luis discuss:

• Staying positive through life-altering adversity


• Finding your purpose after failure


• Building supportive communities


• Creating a growth mindset through discipline and long-distance running


• Why routines and habits are the foundation of personal success

This is more than a comeback story—it’s a roadmap to becoming the leader of your own life.

🎧 Listen now and be inspired to bounce back stronger.
