Edward Jones-Aaron Bondi

1. Presence is Power

What if the way you Show Up mattered more than what you Say or Do? Discover how to command a room, build deeper connections, and unlock next-level opportunities—simply by owning your presence.

2. Grow Through Challenges

Life doesn’t get easier—you get stronger. Learn how to reframe obstacles as fuel for growth, and walk away with real tools to face adversity with resilience, purpose, and power.

3. You Don’t Have to Do It Alone

Success isn’t a solo sport. RJ will explore the surprising strength in community, connection, and collaboration—and how to build your personal board of champions who help you thrive


RJ de Leon – Real Estate Investor and Passionate Mentor

As an entrepreneur, mentor, and real estate investor, RJ de Leon has built a multimillion-dollar construction company and investment portfolio, is proficient at the art of raising private capital, and has spent his career guiding others toward clarity, confidence, and success. RJ is on a mission to help others break through barriers and unlock their full potential.

RJ’s journey hasn’t been without challenges. After being diagnosed with Wilson’s disease, a rare and life-threatening condition, RJ was forced to face mental and physical setbacks. Instead of letting adversity hold him back, he used it to reflect on his life, strengthen his mindset, redefine his purpose, and commit even further to helping others.

With a back ground in accounting and years of experience in real estate, business development, and raising private capital, RJ has helped countless investors build wealth, and take control of their financial futures. More than the deals, numbers, and strategies, his passion lies in being a guide for those who are ready to step up and take action.

RJ believes success isn’t just about what you achieve, it’s about who you help along the way. Whether coaching aspiring investors, fostering community, or sharing his own hard-won lessons, his goal remains the same: to empower others to push past fear, take ownership of their journey, and show up for the life they want to build.
