Can cooperation and collaboration trump competition and profit maximization in generating community wealth? Matt Noyes, son of Chinook Bookstore founders Dick and Judy Noyes, shares his vision for the variety of ways Colorado Springs can benefit from models of cooperative organization and solidarity economy. There are several cooperatives today in the city of Colorado Springs. The state of Colorado has some of the best cooperative law; it’s a great place to form a cooperative. Listen and learn a lot! Matt studied Applied Social Economy at Mondragon University in Spain after living and working in New York City and Tokyo. He’s done extensive research into cooperatives and solidarity economy. He returns to Colorado Springs bringing his passion for sustainability, workers movements, equity and environmental and food justice, and love of good local food.

Frank Sinclair of Dream Again LLC shares insights, wisdom, and practical advice for entrepreneurs and small business owners about how to stay the course. The breadth of life experiences that inform his outlook include growing up in a segregated south, traveling the world in the United States Air Force, living in Acacia Park as a part of homeless community, and eventually becoming an integral part of the Colorado Springs small business community. We discuss: - Frank's amazing journey through life - How impostor syndrome derailed his Air Force career and how to overcome it - Why wanting to change the world can limit your real impact - Tips for staying encouraged through the hard times - Why comparing yourself to others is foolish ...and so much more.
