The Winning Momentum Podcast with Scott Sinclair
Winning Momentum is for business leaders, entrepreneurs, owner managers, related professionals and students of business. It is about improved business performance, leadership and crisis management. Turning negative momentum into positive momentum that, in turn, renews energy and passion, attracts resources, both human and financial, and relieves the destructive personal and family pressures that come with a struggling business. Winning Momentum content consists of three parts: 1. Leadership Skills: Because troubled businesses need leadership to change. 2. Mindset Development: Because troubled businesses are always limited by the personal habits and mental filters of its leaders. 3. Technical Skills: Because running out of money during a turnaround is not an option.
The Winning Momentum Podcast with Scott Sinclair
Sinclair Range Week in Review – November 28, 2025
A big week at Sinclair Range, with our first Sapphire Global Finance deal closing, a deep dive into compounding vs “passive income,” and important lessons from real restructuring work across North America.
Highlights:
• Interesting Deal of the Week: Sapphire Global Finance Closes Its First DIP Loan
Sapphire has completed its first transaction — a highly secured DIP loan for a Canadian cannabis company entering CCAA protection. Scott explains why DIP financing pays high returns, how court-ordered super-priority works, and why Sinclair Range’s expertise creates value for borrowers and investors.
• Wealth & Compounding: The Truth Behind Passive Income
After reviewing Grant Cardone’s “abundance mindset” message, Scott breaks down why compounding — money, skills, network, health, talent stack — is the real engine of wealth creation, and why wasting money kills momentum.
• Private Credit vs Real Estate Funds
Scott compares real-world returns:
Cardone Capital IRR (~8%)
S&P 500 (~14.9%)
Private credit deals Sinclair Range is closing today, often multiples higher.
He also outlines upcoming ways investors may gain access to private credit opportunities alongside Sinclair Range.
• Lesson Learned: The Five Ways a Borrower Can Repay a Lender
Scott reviews the only five paths in any restructuring: refinance, cash flow, asset/equity sale, restructure, or liquidate — and why borrowers and lenders often lose sight of these fundamentals.
• Startups & Capital
Founders must focus on mission, value creation, and execution — not just raising money. Scott highlights why capital follows traction and how The Inner Circle: Deals & Capital helps founders get feedback and clarity.
