Blind, self-funded billionaire entrepreneur and founder discusses how influence mastery drives business success on the world’s #1 mental health podcast
PARAMUS, NJ — Sean Callagy, blind entrepreneur and founder of The Unblinded Formula, appeared on On Purpose with Jay Shetty, the world’s No. 1 mental health podcast, to discuss the mindset shifts and influence strategies behind income growth, trust-building and lasting success.
In the episode, titled “The #1 Skill That Controls Your Income (Use This 90/10 Rule to Build Trust and Create More Opportunities),” Callagy joins host Jay Shetty to explore how limiting beliefs, shaped by family, society and early experience, silently cap what most people believe is possible.
Drawing on his personal journey of gradually losing his vision, Callagy reframes adversity as a catalyst for clarity and urgency rather than a barrier to success.
Central to the conversation is Callagy’s 90/10 rule: that 90% of influence is built on relationship, character and genuine value creation, with only 10% tied to tactical skill. It is a principle Callagy has refined over two decades of training Fortune 500 companies and delivering more than 2,000 keynotes globally.
“Most people are trying to solve an influence problem with information,” said Sean Callagy, founder of Unblinded. “What actually controls your income is the ability to build authentic trust, and that is a skill anyone can master.”
The episode also examines how fear-driven decision-making limits financial growth and why becoming “unblinded,” seeing one’s own potential clearly, is the foundational shift required before any business strategy can take hold.
The full episode is available on all major platforms, including audacy.com.
