Watch the video interview with James and Adam.
Listen to the audio version of this interview.
Adam Marburger remembers distinctly when his high school guidance teacher told the 18-year-old “You are a loser; you’ll never amount to anything.” After all, he thought he was pretty hot stuff, living on his own in a house full of friends, living it up and partying all the time, working and making his own money. But it struck a chord and lit a fire under him.
It wasn’t the right kind of motivation. But now after building six massively successful companies and operating them simultaneously – one in the insurance business for auto and RV dealers nationwide, two in real estate, one in martial arts, and another in the Dental industry as well as one in coaching and personal development—he’s figured out the real difference between what we tell ourselves and authentic success personally and professionally. And he’s sharing it in his candid new book, You’re the F*cking Problem: A Guide to Getting Out of Your Own Way.
The gentle approach to self-improvement doesn’t hit the mark for some people. Adam is the answer for those who need a real wake-up call in the language that gets through to them. In his unique earthy way, he offers straight talk about taking responsibility for the life you have and the life you want to have.
Adam’s is indeed a more positive, uplifting, and encouraging approach to making the changes that lead to getting unstuck than what he received at 18! Adam offers a solid blueprint for setting yourself up for genuine success—the success that creates self-honesty and self-awareness, great relationships, fulfillment, and, yes, even financial well-being.
Adam tells of the setbacks that humbled him including having a partner embezzle the money that collapsed a successful company, tarnishing his reputation in the industry where he was trusted. Having to start over. The loss of a long-term marriage. These are factors that made him step back and take a hard look at his life and the way he was living it. Out of that emerged a renewed approach that meant making new habits, new thinking, new ways to treat people, and most of all forgiveness, a cornerstone of his campaign to be better each day than the one before.
Today, Adam Marburger is the president and CEO of Ascent Dealer Services, an insurance agency specializing in building wealth for automotive, RV, and power-sports dealers across the nation. His tremendous track record in retail automotive landed him on the list of “Automotive News 40 under 40,” which launched him as one of the most sought-after coaches in the industry. He is also the president/CEO of The Marburger Investment Group specializing in single-family rentals and renovating properties in the St. Louis area. Meanwhile, A2 Investment Group focuses its efforts on multifamily and commercial real estate.
In 2018 he launched Alton Family Martial Arts, an outgrowth of his own love of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, where he is a Black Belt and possessor of a National Championship, and six World Medalist titles. At one point, he also served as the leading Midwest promoter for MMA and other forms of fighting sports. His latest venture, Dental Protection Group, launched in 2023, focuses on insurance and legacy wealth building for dental practices and labs, showing his ability to diversify and grow. Today, his greatest joy is in spending time with his three daughters.
Adam is also bringing his brand of success to a new personalized coaching platform, “The Growth Zone,” that is jumpstarting people from a life half-lived to one fully empowered. He truly cares about making a difference.
In today’s episode, Adam discusses his new book, You’tr the F*ing Problem: A Guide to Getting Out of Your Own Way. For more information about Adam visit AdamMarburger.com. You may also purchase his book on Amazon.com
