From Door-Knocking to $250M Firm: How Faith & Grit Built Zion Capital | Lucas Mijares Interview

The Mark Haney Podcast

In this episode of The Mark Haney Show, I sit down with Lucas Mijares, Co-Founder and CEO of Zion Capital, a fast-growing wealth management firm now managing over $250 million in assets. Lucas shares how he went from knocking doors in a suit to launching a high-trust boutique firm grounded in values, stewardship, and grit.
🎯 You’ll hear:
• Why Lucas left a "storybook" career at Edward Jones to build something bigger
• How faith, marriage, and fostering shaped his leadership philosophy
• What it's like raising 6 boys while running a mission-driven company
• Lessons from HYROX races, youth coaching, and growing up the youngest of five
• How to thrive in an uncertain economy—without falling for financial noise
Whether you’re a founder, parent, or just someone chasing a purpose-driven life, Lucas’s story is packed with actionable wisdom, heartfelt moments, and reminders that nobody builds something great alone.
