Why This Episode Is a Must-Listen Are you looking to build a business that goes beyond ideas and actually creates impact? This episode of Inspired Money explores the realities of entrepreneurship, demystifying the process of turning inspiration into innovation, and then into profit. Our all-star panel peels back the layers on what it really takes to validate concepts, build recognizable brands, secure funding, and achieve sustainable growth. Whether you're an aspiring entrepreneur or a seasoned business leader, you'll come away with actionable insights and fresh motivation. Meet the Expert Panelists Ilana Golan is a serial entrepreneur, investor, and international keynote speaker who founded Leap Academy, one of the fastest-growing private companies in America. A former Israeli Air Force commander and the first woman to train all F‑16 pilots, she has scaled startups to $15M in annual revenue, contributed to a $300M exit, and inspires audiences worldwide with her insights on entrepreneurship, career reinvention and the future of portfolio careers.  James Orsini is the President of Startup Operations at VaynerX, working alongside Gary Vaynerchuk to help grow and scale the company's portfolio of ventures. With decades of executive experience in finance, operations, and agency leadership, he specializes in building systems that transform entrepreneurial ideas into thriving businesses.  Nikki Estes is a serial entrepreneur, co-founder of iCG Pay (acquired by CSG Forte), and CEO of Market Me More, where she helps B2B and tech companies scale through strategic marketing, sales optimization, and technology-driven solutions. As the founder of Top Voices Unite and a recognized LinkedIn Top Voice, Nikki has built a collaborative platform that amplifies thought leaders, fosters high-impact partnerships, and inspires professionals to grow and lead with purpose.  Key Highlights Early Validation Is Everything Ilana Golan reveals why quickly testing ideas and embracing direct customer feedback is essential for success. Sharing a personal story, she emphasizes, “You want to create an MVP, but don't get attached—write it in pencil because you might need to erase it and pivot based on what your customers actually want.” Personal and Business Brands Belong Together Nikki Estes and Ilana both highlight the increasing importance of building a strong, authentic personal brand alongside your business brand, especially in today's digital-first world. Nikki explains her approach: “It's almost necessary for the brand leader to stand up and talk about what they do. People want the voice behind the company.”  Funding Wisely: Bootstrap First, Raise Later James Orsini and Nikki both offer practical advice for entrepreneurial finance. “Don't squeeze the baby too tight,” James warns, underscoring the value of securing a credit line before giving away equity. Nikki describes how bootstrapping taught her the discipline that later fueled growth. Sometimes self-funding is the best teacher.  Resilience and Purpose Drive Growth Ilana and Nikki discuss how setbacks can plant the seeds for future triumphs, and why purpose is the ultimate secret weapon against burnout. In Ilana's words, “Sometimes your biggest challenges are exactly the fuel that you need… your strongest ‘why' will keep you moving forward.” Call-to-Action Here's my challenge for you this week: take one concrete step toward your idea. It could be writing out your business model on one page, reaching out to someone in your network for feedback, or even setting aside time to research your market.  Commit to taking just one step. Because the difference between a dream and a business is the action you take today.  Find the Inspired Money channel on YouTube or listen to Inspired Money in your favorite podcast player.

What does it actually take to mine Bitcoin in El Salvador? In this episode, Mike sits down with Josue Lopez, CEO of Volcano Energy, to break down what's really happening beyond the hype. Josue explains how his team is building energy infrastructure from the ground up, solar, wind, and geothermal, to support a truly sovereign energy mining operation. This isn't about plugging into someone else's grid. It's about designing a system that El Salvador controls end-to-end.They get into the details of mining economics, from why electricity in El Salvador is so expensive to how immersion cooling made it possible to run ASICs in a tropical climate. Josue also shares why Volcano Energy has already raised nearly $300 million and how the team is balancing short-term returns with long-term strategic goals. Whether the energy gets sold to the grid or powers Bitcoin mining directly, the goal is the same—build assets that last and reduce dependency on unstable jurisdictions.The conversation moves beyond Bitcoin into national development. Josue explains how energy, safety, and financial inclusion are all connected. They dig into El Salvador's massive housing shortage and why his fund is stepping in to build low-income homes designed for families earning minimum wage. It's a look at what Bitcoin infrastructure really means when it's tied to place, people, and policy.If you've ever wondered how energy mining works in the real world, or whether a country like El Salvador can build from scratch without relying on legacy systems, this episode is for you.

Darin Roberge is a veteran executive, analyst, and thought leader in the collector and classic car scene. As president of Motor Works Marketing, publisher of the Z 260 newsletter series, and current caretaker of Arizona Car Week, Darin has helped shape the future of America's most iconic car events while championing nonprofit causes and classic car culture. On this episode we talk about: Early hustle lessons: From picking up dog poop at a humane society to refereeing youth basketball, Darin learned early the value of doing work you genuinely care about—and how passion can shape a career. Pursuing what you love: Darin's entire professional life has revolved around his core interests—animals, guitars, cars, and motorcycles. He describes his path not as accidental, but as a blend of deliberate choices and seizing “right place, right time” opportunities. Unusual entry to the car business: After attending car auctions for years, a fateful incident (his girlfriend slipping and falling on a car at an event) led to a backstage introduction to the CEO of Russo and Steele. Within months, Darin went from punk rock frontman and nightclub promotions to a leadership role at one of the industry's major auction houses. Reinvention and loss: The sudden career shift wasn't easy—Darin lost friendships and faced accusations of “selling out.” He discusses the emotional fallout, what it means to outgrow old circles, and why ultimately you're the only one responsible for making decisions that serve your future self. Mindset and skill-building: Darin credits humility, a willingness to learn, and constantly offering value as his keys to success, both in the boardroom and as a leader in car culture. Leveling up in the industry: Now as the head of Arizona Car Week, Darin has tripled the size of the event, rallying the local community to create a car show that includes 30+ events—many of them free—making the culture accessible to everyone, not just millionaire collectors. Community impact: Arizona Car Week is a $300M economic engine for the region, supporting jobs, tourism, schools, and local infrastructure. Nonprofit innovation: Darin's newest ventures—Motor Works Gives and Classic Cars for Nonprofits—offer zero-cost, low-lift fundraising programs to help organizations monetize car donations and auction opportunities, raising over $25M for more than 40 organizations since 2018. Key advice: Life is long, and you're never “locked in.” If you're facing a major (possibly terrifying) change, be tough, stay open, seek positive outside passions (like boxing or music), and surround yourself with people who help you evolve. Top 3 Takeaways Don't Wait for Permission—Make Your Own Luck: Sometimes radical life changes—no matter how uncomfortable—open doors to once-in-a-lifetime opportunities. Community and Flexibility Matter: Listening to your audience, staying humble, and being willing to adapt are essential for building lasting business and personal impact. Work That Means Something—To You and Others: Forget “get rich quick.” If you stay engaged with work you care about and strive to help your community, profit and fulfillment follow.

What happens when the success you've chased your whole life finally shows up, and it doesn't feel like enough? In this thought-provoking episode, Jerome Myers talks with Calvin Correli, founder of Simplero and long-time spiritual explorer, about what comes after the exit. They talk through the emotional crash that can follow financial success, why most people are secretly afraid of feeling safe, and how founders can stop waiting for money to permit them to feel fulfilled. This episode is about more than business. It's about learning how to live well, right now. Listen in and start rewriting the story you've been living by. [00:00 – 12:00] The $300M Moment That Didn't Fix Anything The email that started it all: a founder with a $300M offer and deep unhappiness Why the usual playbook of success stops working after a big win How entrepreneurship often reflects our search for something deeper [12:01 – 24:00] Hidden Fears and Emotional Shortcuts Why do people put off feeling the way they want to feel How beliefs around safety and worth keep high performers stuck What happens when your goal no longer motivates you [24:01 – 36:00] Awareness, Emotions, and Real Power A simple shift that changes how you relate to anger, fear, and desire Why it's dangerous to say “I am” instead of “I feel” How to stop outsourcing your emotional life to outcomes [36:01 – 46:00] Letting Go of the Hustle How Calvin shifted from chasing money to building around connection Why building a company can be more about intimacy than income What changes when you don't need to prove anything anymore [46:01 – End] What Purpose Looks Like Calvin's three-level framework for living with purpose Why your presence might be your greatest gift How founders can move forward without needing another title, deal, or goal Key Quotes: “Money is just a way for people to say: I value what you do. That's all.” -  Calvin Correli “There's no happiness in the future. The future never comes. The only time is now.” - Calvin Correli Connect with Calvin!

Welcome back to another thought-provoking episode of Tank Talks! In this episode, Matt Cohen and John Ruffolo cut through the noise to unpack the latest economic headlines and policy shifts reshaping North America's business landscape. From Canada's surprise repeal of the Digital Services Tax to Brookfield's launch of an evergreen private equity fund, this episode dives deep into the forces driving change in trade, finance, and innovation.Will Canada's late-stage policy reversal strengthen its position in U.S. trade talks? Are evergreen funds the next big wave in private equity? And how will digital-only banks and stablecoins reshape the future of finance? Tune in for all that and more!Canada's Digital Services Tax Repealed at the 11th Hour (00:14)Just hours before the June 30th collection date, Canada repealed its controversial 3% digital services tax to clear the runway for renewed trade negotiations with the U.S. Matt and John unpack the political optics, the timing missteps, and why this repeal might've come too late to score real leverage in the upcoming Carney-Trump summit.Trade Tensions and a Pivot Away from U.S. Exports (02:50)With U.S. tariffs still biting Canadian industries like steel, aluminum, and autos, exports to non-U.S. markets jumped 5.7% in May. John analyzes the long-term risks and what a 10% tariff “compromise” could mean for Canadian trade policy moving forward.Brookfield's Evergreen Fund: Liquidity vs. Strategy (06:37)Brookfield's launch of a new evergreen private equity fund is raising eyebrows. These liquid investment vehicles are tailored for high-net-worth investors, but could they undermine Brookfield's traditional closed-end funds? Matt and John discuss the tradeoffs and potential disruption to institutional capital models.Stablecoins, Erebor & The Future of Banking (10:53)With the launch of Erebor, a new U.S. digital-only bank backed by Palmer Luckey, Peter Thiel, and Joe Lonsdale, the open banking revolution is heating up. But will Canada get left behind amid regulatory hesitations? The duo explores how stablecoins and crypto-native banks are reshaping the financial ecosystem.The “Big Beautiful Bill”: Trillions in U.S. Spending (13:56)At nearly 1,000 pages and $4.85 trillion, the latest U.S. tax and spending package is a behemoth. John calls out some of the more controversial provisions, like Section 899, a “revenge tax” aimed at foreign investors, and weighs in on what this means for the U.S. deficit and global investment climate.Figma Files to Go Public: A Product-Led Rocketship with a Caveat (16:49)Figma's S-1 filing reveals eye-popping growth: $750M in 2024 revenue, 91% gross margins, and 90% of the Fortune 500 on board. But one number raised eyebrows, its definition of net revenue retention. Is the 132% figure misleading? Matt and John dissect the metrics and what investors need to know.Anthropic & OpenAI's Revenue Explosion (19:39)AI darlings Anthropic and OpenAI are shattering expectations, with annualized revenues of $4B and $10B, respectively. What's fueling this growth, and is it sustainable? Matt and John assess the trajectory and strategic implications for the broader AI race.Meta's Talent War: $300M Signing Bonuses & AI Domination (20:30)Meta's aggressive push into AI includes poaching top OpenAI talent with eye-watering offers reportedly reaching $300M. Is this visionary investing, or panic-mode recruiting? The conversation digs into the implications of Meta's superintelligence ambitions and the high-stakes battle for AI supremacy.Microsoft Layoffs: AI Efficiency or Budget Strategy? (22:52)With Microsoft cutting 9,000 jobs, questions swirl around whether AI-driven efficiencies or strategic capital reallocation are the real drivers. John shares his take on what this means for enterprise software, consulting firms, and the future of knowledge work.As the tides of global economics, innovation, and technology continue to shift, Tank Talks is your front-row seat to the big moves shaping our world.

Interview with Christopher Taylor, Chairman, and Claudia Tornquist, President & CEO ,of Kodiak Copper Corp.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/kodiak-copper-tsxvkdk-bc-porphyry-explorer-advances-from-discovery-to-resource-stage-in-2025-6573Recording date: 25th June 2025Kodiak Copper Corp (TSXV: KDK) has announced a significant milestone with its maiden mineral resource estimate for the MPD copper-gold project in British Columbia, marking the culmination of six years of systematic exploration. The resource encompasses four of seven identified mineralized zones, revealing 300 million tons of mineralization grading 0.42% copper equivalent for indicated resources and 0.33% for inferred resources.The scale of the discovery positions MPD among British Columbia's significant copper deposits. Founder and Chairman Christopher Taylor noted that using equivalent cutoff grades to nearby mines, the project contains "between 2 and 3 billion pounds of copper equivalent roughly, and that's worth more than $10 billion in the ground in resource." This substantial resource base provides the foundation for what could become a major mining operation in the region.Despite the impressive resource scale, Kodiak trades at approximately $50 million market capitalization, presenting what management views as a significant valuation disconnect. President and CEO Claudia Tornquist highlighted this opportunity, noting that comparable British Columbia copper companies with established resources "trade at 150 million, 200 million or more."The timing appears strategically advantageous given the global copper supply shortage. Tornquist emphasized that "the pipeline of projects, of exploration projects, development projects in the copper sector are at an all-time low," while demand accelerates from AI infrastructure and renewable energy transitions.Looking ahead, Kodiak expects to complete its full seven-zone resource estimate by year-end, with the remaining southern zones containing significant near-surface, high-grade mineralization. The company has secured funding for 5,500 meters of additional drilling, with results expected through autumn.Given the project's scale and characteristics, management anticipates eventual acquisition by a major mining company, as porphyry projects of this magnitude typically require major company involvement for development. The maiden resource provides the concrete numbers necessary for institutional evaluation and potential merger and acquisition discussions.View Kodiak Copper's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/kodiak-copper-corpSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

In this episode, Jason responds to two powerful listener messages. First, a PM asks: How do you lead when you're new to a project and the entire team knows more than you do? Jason shares the exact strategy he would use to build trust, gain clarity, and define his role starting with humility and collaboration. Second, a reflection from a $300M industrial project in the Amazon reveals something important: even with advanced systems like BIM, AWP, and Last Planner in place, production suffers when foremen and supervisors lack core skills. Through Kaizen cycles, the team discovered gaps in pre-task planning, tool management, drawing reading, and 3D model usage and solved it with targeted training. Jason connects this insight to real examples like High Street and P1 Group's Forge training facility, emphasizing that skilled people, not just systems make the difference. A powerful reminder that builders need both the plan and the preparation. If you're new to a team or trying to level up field performance, this one's for you.   If you like the Elevate Construction podcast, please subscribe for free and you'll never miss an episode.  And if you really like the Elevate Construction podcast, I'd appreciate you telling a friend (Maybe even two
