The Dad Edge Podcast (formerly The Good Dad Project Podcast)
I've had a lot of impressive guests on this show, but Khalil Zahar's story genuinely stood out to me. He's the founder and CEO of FightCamp, a company he built from a simple idea, wanting to actually measure his own progress as a boxer, into one of the biggest names in connected fitness, with over $100 million raised and backing from legends like Mike Tyson, Floyd Mayweather, and Georges St-Pierre. He's also not married and doesn't have kids, but the lessons he's built his entire career around, discipline, discomfort, and identity, translate directly to fatherhood and marriage. We started with the pivotal moment in his early 20s, a late night watching Sportscenter, that made him realize he didn't have unlimited time to become who he wanted to be. From there we got into his philosophy around seeking discomfort intentionally, why he believes identity has to come before outcome, and what it actually means to become the person who does the things you want to be known for, rather than chasing the result directly. He shared a personal story about training around a serious injury by controlling everything he could, his nutrition and mindset, when he couldn't control his body, and I shared a nearly identical story from my own torn patella tendon recovery. We closed the conversation on what Khalil calls the mindset of a fighter, discipline, craftsmanship, accepting what you can't control, and learning to be genuinely thankful for your losses instead of resentful of them. If you've ever felt too comfortable, stuck in a rut, or unsure how to push yourself toward the version of you that you know is possible, this conversation gives you a real, practical way to start. Timeline Summary [1:04] Khalil's early 20s awakening: a late night realization that time wasn't unlimited [3:36] His teenage dream of becoming a professional B-Boy and the intimidating scene around it [7:00] The first concrete steps he took once he decided to stop just "trying a little" [9:25] How Khalil's relationship with failure changed once he actually started taking risks [12:20] Larry announces a rare, small-group preview of the Dad Edge Business Boardroom Brotherhood [12:37] Why embracing failure sooner would have changed everything, and Thomas Edison's light bulb story [14:31] Taking the first, smallest possible step instead of trying to see ten miles ahead [16:34] A full introduction to Khalil: FightCamp's founder, backed by Tyson, Mayweather, and Saint-Pierre [18:11] Khalil's controversial philosophy: why seeking discomfort matters more than self-acceptance alone [21:39] Practical advice for a man who feels too comfortable and stuck in a "dad bod" mindset [22:01] The core idea: identity comes first, and outcomes follow from who you decide to become [25:21] Larry announces Roommates to Soulmates cohort three, starting September 16th [27:16] Diving deeper into identity versus tactics, using Khalil's 13 bodybuilding competitions as an example [32:18] Why seeking discomfort is fundamentally about removing fear, not chasing a specific outcome [35:51] Confidence built through keeping your word to yourself, even when you don't feel like it [36:43] What the mindset of a fighter actually looks like, broken into four core principles [38:18] The first principle: discipline as doing what you don't want to do [39:48] The second principle: craftsmanship, applying full care and attention to everything you touch [40:31] The third principle: you can't control your opponent, only how you prepare and react [42:17] The fourth principle: losses and failure are praised in martial arts, not resented [44:10] Larry's own story of controlling what he could control during a torn patella tendon recovery [45:32] Khalil shares a strikingly similar story recovering from a severe hand injury [49:17] Where to find Khalil and FightCamp Five Key Takeaways Time is not unlimited, and the sooner you accept that, the sooner you stop just "trying a little" and start actually pursuing the version of yourself you want to become. Identity comes before outcome. Instead of fixating on the result you want, define who that person would be and start living like them today, and the outcome tends to follow naturally. Confidence isn't built by achieving a goal once, it's built by consistently keeping your word to yourself, especially in the small moments when you don't feel like following through. You cannot control your circumstances, your opponent, or the environment around you. The only thing you control is how you prepare for and respond to what happens, and real peace comes from focusing there instead. Losses and failure should be treated as lessons to be thankful for, not outcomes to resent. A fighter's mindset toward getting knocked down and getting back up applies directly to marriage, parenting, and business.

You're not going to get every season right, and neither is your wife or your kids, but treating a setback as a lesson instead of a verdict on who you are changes everything about how you recover from it. Whatever discomfort you've been avoiding lately, in your body, your business, or your relationships, let this be the nudge to take the smallest next step toward it.

My guest today is Sonos CEO Tom Conrad. Tom was on the board at Sonos during the disastrous 2024 app redesign that threatened to crash the entire brand, and he took over as interim CEO to right the ship during that period. About a year ago, he took the permanent role. I have been dying to have Tom on the show to talk about how the board decided to move on from previous CEO Patrick Spence, how he diagnosed the issues inside the company, and what decisions he made to fix them. Plus. Tom was willing to get into the weeds and nerd out with me, and I think this one is pretty fun because of it.

Kevin Maney: The Category Creation Formula for Winning Markets in the AI Era AI is making products easier to build, but meaningful differentiation harder to sustain. A stronger feature set, a faster model, or simply adding an “AI-powered” label may not be enough to convince customers that a new market should exist in the first place. Kevin Maney, bestselling author, technology commentator, and founding partner of Category Design Advisors, joins me to unpack the Category Creation Formula: Context + Missing + Innovation = New Market Category. Developed through nearly a decade of fieldwork with more than 50 companies, the framework offers a practical way to understand when markets are ready to change: identify what has shifted around the customer, uncover the newly urgent need that shift creates, and then design the innovation the market is ready to embrace. Our conversation moves beyond conventional product-market fit toward a more fundamental question: What would market-product fit look like? We explore why being first matters less than establishing the accepted dominant design, why competitors can actually validate rather than weaken a new category, and why successful category creation starts outside the organization, not with the technology already sitting inside it. In an era of AI abundance, compressed innovation cycles, and increasingly crowded markets, this conversation offers a different way to think about growth. It is particularly relevant for CEOs, transformation leaders, investors, and founders asking not simply how to build a better product, but how to create a market that wants it. KEY TAKEAWAYS What I found particularly compelling in this conversation with Kevin is his challenge to one of the most deeply embedded assumptions in innovation: that we should build a product and then find its market. Kevin turns that logic around with the idea of market-product fit. Instead of starting with what our technology can do, we should start by understanding what has changed in the world around our customers, what new problem that change has created, and what innovation could solve it. His Category Creation Formula, Context + Missing + Innovation, gives leaders a simple but powerful way to make that shift. I also loved Kevin's perspective on category leadership. Being first is not necessarily the objective. The real goal is to establish the dominant design that shapes how customers understand and expect the category to work. And, counterintuitively, competition can help because other players entering the market validate the category in customers' minds. For me, this is a particularly important lesson in today's crowded AI landscape. Finally, Kevin makes a distinction I think every leader should consider: using AI to make the existing business more efficient is only one side of the opportunity. The bigger question is what entirely new products, services, and ways of operating become possible because AI has changed the context. As AI itself becomes foundational and ubiquitous, the differentiator will increasingly be what humans do with it, and the ideas they create about what comes next. BEST MOMENTS “Category design is a strategy. And when I think of positioning and marketing, those are things that a company does.” – Kevin Maney [13:52] “Product-market fit has led a lot of people to think we'll build this product and figure out a market to put it into. And we talked about it, saying, like, it's actually market-product fit.” – Kevin Maney [25:00] “Your ultimate goal is to win the dominant design. It's not to be the day one, first mover, be the first one to say, ‘We're creating this category.'” – Kevin Maney [29:57] “Your goal is not to wipe out all competition, your goal is to be the dominant design and make all of your competitors follow you.” – Kevin Maney [29:57] “I actually believe that the big AI models... that's going to become, at some point, as boring as the internet or as electricity. What excites me is what you can do with it.” – Kevin Maney [37:26] “AI is trained on the past, and it's only going to understand the past, and it's going to be the humans that create the future.” – Kevin Maney [49:19] ABOUT THE GUEST Kevin Maney is a bestselling author, award-winning technology commentator, and founding partner of Category Design Advisors. He is the co-author of The Category Creation Formula and Play Bigger, and spent 22 years as a technology journalist at USA Today. His work has also appeared in publications including Newsweek, Fortune, The Atlantic, and Wired. Kevin helps leadership teams identify, define, and develop new market categories. Through nearly a decade of category-design work with more than 50 companies, his focus has included market-product fit, dominant design, the adjacent possible, strategic points of view, and the leadership alignment required to translate innovation into an understood and adopted market choice.

What does it really take to build one million-dollar company—let alone five brands that each crossed the million-dollar mark in less than 18 months?In this episode of The Raygacy Show, Rayson sits down with Tyler Dunagin, CEO of Turnserv, to uncover what happens behind the scenes when a business goes from ambitious idea to scalable organization.Tyler has built numerous seven-figure companies, earned recognition among the Inc. 5000, helped build one of the fastest-growing companies in Ohio in its category, been nominated for Entrepreneur of the Year recognition, and appeared across dozens of publications.But this conversation isn't simply about revenue.It's about the invisible architecture behind extraordinary growth: systems, structure, culture, leadership, and the ability to know when to scale—and when to say no.Tyler shares practical lessons on building businesses that don't depend entirely on the founder, creating cultures where people take ownership, developing systems without suffocating creativity, diversifying products and services, entering new markets, and recognizing the difference between a genuine opportunity and an expensive distraction.We also go deeper into the human side of entrepreneurship: What happens when your company grows faster than you do? How does success change your identity? And after the awards, revenue milestones, and recognition—what actually makes the journey worthwhile?If you're an entrepreneur, founder, business leader, or someone trying to turn your vision into something that can grow beyond you, this conversation will challenge the way you think about scaling.Because building a successful company isn't simply about working harder.It's about creating the systems that produce results, the structure that sustains growth, and the soul that gives all of it meaning.

Could some of the symptoms you've learned to live with — brain fog, fatigue, headaches, hormonal changes, or simply not feeling like yourself — have less to do with what's happening inside your body and more to do with the environment you're living in? In this episode of the HEAL with Kelly Podcast, I sit down with Ariana Thacker, chemical engineer and founder and CEO of MoldCo, whose own unexpected health crisis led her to investigate one of the most overlooked environmental factors affecting our health: mold exposure. We talk about why mold-related illness can be so difficult to recognize, why conventional testing often completely misses it, and the surprising reason two people living in the exact same home can have completely different experiences. Ariana also challenges some of the biggest assumptions we have about where mold exists — including why newer homes aren't necessarily in the clear. We explore the emerging connections researchers are seeing between our environments and everything from brain and immune health to hormones, metabolism, and chronic illness. And Ariana shares what she wishes she had known before getting sick, how to begin thinking differently about the health of your home, and why mold may only be one piece of a much bigger environmental conversation. If you've ever had symptoms you couldn't quite explain, wondered whether your home could be affecting how you feel, or simply want to know what may be hiding in the places you spend the most time, this conversation will change the way you look at your environment — and your health.

On this episode of All Things Wildfire, OP sits down with Stuart Landesberg, Founder and CEO of Seneca, to explore how autonomous firefighting aircraft could change wildfire initial attack. Seneca is developing autonomous aerial suppression systems designed to launch rapidly, navigate toward new ignitions, identify fire using onboard sensors and AI, and deliver water, foam or other firefighting agents while a fire is still small. Stuart walks us through Seneca's five-aircraft Strike Team, how multiple aircraft coordinate suppression, what happens in high winds, nighttime operations and how autonomous systems can work alongside existing firefighters and traditional aerial resources rather than replace them. We also discuss one of the biggest milestones yet for autonomous wildfire response: Aspen Fire Protection District becoming the first U.S. fire department to acquire Seneca's AI-driven autonomous aerial suppression system. The conversation goes beyond initial attack into structure protection, mop-up, hidden hot spots, wildfire insurance, HOAs and whether rapid-response technology could eventually become another factor insurers consider when evaluating community wildfire risk.

Praveen Ghanta, Founder and CEO of DevHawk Signing the LOI can feel like you've won. For the seller, it may actually be the moment when the balance of power starts moving the other way. Praveen Ghanta learned that firsthand while selling HiddenLevers. A key enterprise contract slipped during diligence, the valuation story changed, and just before the diligence period expired, the buyer came back asking to reprice the deal by nearly 50%. What followed was a tense negotiation over how much to concede, what to protect, and when walking away becomes the better option. What You'll Learn Why seller leverage changes after signing an LOI What should be defined before entering exclusivity How to think about your walkaway number What diligence feels like from the seller's side Where buyers can unintentionally destroy what made an acquisition valuable What Praveen would do differently after going through the process himself When diligence changes the deal, the hardest question is knowing what to defend and what to give up. DealPilot, powered by M&A Science, has the deal frameworks and negotiation playbooks practitioners have used to make that call themselves. ____________________ This episode of M&A Science is presented by DealRoom. 51% of corp dev teams are already using AI in their deals. We surveyed 230+ practitioners on where AI is showing up across sourcing, diligence, integration, and internal workflows, what's working, what's holding teams back, and where the biggest opportunity is over the next 12 to 24 months.

Everyone has access to the same AI horsepower now, which means “more content” is no longer a strategy. The real question is what AI can never replace about you and how to turn that into a durable advantage without becoming another generic brand that sounds like it was stitched together from internet averages.We sit down with Jon Benson, founder of BNSN.ai and a pioneer of the video sales letter (VSL), to get practical about persuasion in the AI economy. John walks us back to the early days of VSLs and explains what they revealed about human attention: people want relief from pain, they have a ton of noise in their head, and they do not care about your features until they feel understood. From there, we connect the dots to modern AI copywriting, why so much of it triggers a “something is off” reaction, and how trust drops the moment an audience suspects the message is fully machine-generated.Then we get tactical about using AI the right way. Jon breaks down why generic chatbots often produce robotic patterns and empty rhetorical questions, and why “human tweaks” are the difference between a draft that reads fine and copy that actually converts, especially on cold traffic. We also talk about training specialty AI on proven winners, building a digital CEO or clone that knows your work, and the bigger ethical questions coming fast: alignment, superintelligence, and why treating AI like a digital slave is a bad habit with real consequences.If you want AI marketing that scales your voice instead of erasing it, listen now, subscribe, and share this with a friend who's outsourcing their personality to prompts.

Not every piece of popular advice deserves a place in your marketing strategy. In this solo episode, Chris Dreyer, CEO of Rankings.io, takes on eight of the most debated ideas in PI marketing—and doesn't hesitate to call out what's true, what's false, and what depends on your firm's situation. The conversation covers everything from billboards and branding to AI, intake, market saturation, and firm growth. Rather than offering blanket rules, Chris explains why context, capital, and execution matter far more than repeating advice that worked for someone else. You'll learn: Why billboard placement matters more than simply buying the cheapest inventory. What separates a recognizable law firm brand from a logo and a familiar face. How intake capacity can become a tighter growth constraint than lead generation. Where AI creates the most value inside today's PI firms beyond answering phones. Why performance marketing often delivers a stronger return than early brand campaigns.

Send us Fan Mail⚾ Brad Gregory once dreamed of reaching Major League Baseball. After becoming an All-American pitcher at Florida State University and playing professionally in the Minnesota Twins organization, that dream ended with a letter telling him his baseball career was over.That painful transition eventually led Brad toward a new purpose: helping vulnerable children.Today, Brad is the CEO of A Kid's Place of Tampa Bay, a foster care organization dedicated to providing children with a safe, nurturing, home-like environment while working to keep brothers and sisters together.Brad joins Joey Pinz to discuss what professional sports taught him about teamwork, why young athletes should be praised for effort rather than talent, and how gratitude and grace shape his leadership philosophy. He also explains what happens when a child first arrives in foster care, the importance of house parents, and why children in group homes deserve to be viewed as ordinary kids facing extraordinary circumstances.This conversation is a direct look at leadership, service, resilience, and the people working every day to protect children who need stability most.Top Three Highlights
Host Tony Whatley interviews Jesse Jackson, CEO of Mango Automotive, which scaled to over $10M revenue in its first three years and now operates eight shops across New Mexico, Arizona, and Texas. Jackson shares her path from environmental engineering to software product leadership, selling an automotive detail shop management app in 2021, and pivoting into brick-and-mortar auto repair due to an aging owner base and opportunity to improve customer experience (the "pink wall effect," clean lobbies). She explains why software profitability can suffer from heavy customization, how Mango uses AI and custom internal tools to centralize metrics and task checklists, and how acquisitions require systems to function without constant owner presence. Jackson discusses sourcing off-market deals, frequent owner financing tailored to seller needs, focusing on shop size (6–7 bays minimum) and location, and retaining talent by offering benefits and growth opportunities through "Mango University," with a goal to reach nine figures in five years using added capital. 00:00 Meet Jesse Jackson 01:14 From Engineer to Software 02:51 Why Software Burns Out 03:36 Custom Tools With AI 06:36 Why the App Wasnt Profitable 09:27 Spotting the Shop Opportunity 11:40 Pink Wall Customer Experience 13:11 First Shop Christmas Sprint 17:00 Finding Deals Off Market 21:33 Owner Financing Retirements 22:02 Scaling Fast Eating Glass 23:30 Systems Slow Day Checklist 26:13 McDonalds Ops Lessons 27:11 Extreme Shop Organization Ideas 27:53 Shop Workflow Mindset 28:43 Checklist Driven Consistency 29:30 Acquisition Sweet Spots 31:27 Labor Shortage Reality Check 32:37 Benefits First Hiring 37:20 Pricing Above Bottom 38:01 Promoting From Within 39:38 Growth Mindset Training 41:51 Culture In Acquisitions 44:06 Nine Figure Growth Plan 46:12 Just Start And Delegate 49:22 Hiring Before You Can 51:10 Closing And Contact Info

What if the thing blocking you from what you want isn't that you need to do more… but that you've been restricting who you really are?In this episode, I'm sharing one of the biggest realizations I've had while spending time in the South of France: you cannot restrict yourself and expect to receive the fullest version of your desires.When I first started my business in 2019, I had no idea what I was doing. I was experimenting, having fun, following what felt exciting, and honestly had very little expectation that any of it would work. And somehow… it worked.But somewhere along the way, things got serious.I started believing that in order to be taken seriously as a founder, CEO, mentor, and woman with a bigger platform, I needed to become a more polished, perfected, controlled version of myself. I began suppressing the silly, wild, playful parts of me because I thought becoming someone else would help me get what I wanted. Instead, my entire life became rigid.And eventually, so much of what I had been gripping onto fell away.That experience brought me back to something incredibly simple: the fullest version of you is the most magnetic version of you.In This Episode We Cover:Why having no expectations can make you more magneticHow trying to be taken seriously can disconnect you from who you actually areThe ways we unconsciously restrict ourselves to be chosen, loved, successful, accepted or seenWhy showing up as only half of yourself means people can only meet and choose half of youThe difference between discipline that feels good and restriction that disconnects you from yourselfWhy pleasure, play and freedom can be powerful parts of creating what you desireHow letting go of the need to control the outcome changes your energyWhy you don't need to contort yourself into someone else to get the relationship, money, body, business or life you wantMy G-Spot Theory and why you can't think your way into pleasure—you have to feel your way thereWhat Europe has been reminding me about slowing down, enjoying life and letting things be a little less seriousResources & Links✨ Join the waitlist for our NEW Brand & App Innersource: https://marleyrose.myflodesk.com/fxkkkd5bnd✨ Join my FREE live training: Clear Your Limiting Beliefs: www.marleyrose.ca/clear ✨ Get Your Free Trial to The Higher Self App: https://www.instagram.com/higherself.app/✨ Join House Of Freedom https://www.marleyrose.ca/houseoffreedom✨ Explore my programs and coaching opportunities: linktr.ee/marleyroseharrisConnect With MarleyInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/marleyroseharris/Website: https://www.marleyrose.ca/Email: hello@marleyrose.caYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@marleyroseharrisLove The Podcast?If this episode resonated with you, I would be so grateful if you left a review.Send a screenshot of your review & email it to hello@marleyrose.ca and we'll send you a special gift as a thank you for supporting the show.Thank you for being here, angel.

Edna was a trial lawyer running on empty — until a medical leave forced her to actually learn what self-care means. What she discovered became the Serene Weekly Planner, and she built it postpartum during nap times. Today I am sitting down with Edna, founder of Serene Paper Co. and Print School alumni. In this episode of the Dream Printing Podcast, Edna shares how six years of high-pressure trial work, a mental health crisis, and a trip to Japan's stationery aisles all collided into her first product — the Serene Weekly Planner, a self-care focused undated planner built around honoring your energy and planning with intention. You'll hear the real story behind what self-care actually looks like beyond bubble baths, how Edna built a capacity assessment into the planner to help women evaluate what they can realistically take on, and why she designed the daily check-in around energy and stress ratings before the to-do list ever starts. If you're the woman who thinks she doesn't have time for this kind of thing, Edna would say that's exactly who this planner is for.

What if the fastest way to grow was walking away from $15 million in sales? In this episode of The Story of a Brand Show, host Rose Hamilton sits down with Jason Burke, Founder and CEO of New Primal. Jason shares his incredible evolution from Googling "how to make beef jerky" without any food manufacturing background to building a CPG powerhouse. Together, they deliver a masterclass on commercial discipline, detailing how New Primal cut 36 products down to a focused core, shifted from an impulse snack to a high-velocity lunchbox staple, and learned that revenue without healthy margins is just noise. In this episode, we cover: * The $15 Million Cut: How eliminating profitable yet complex SKUs and categories actually unlocked faster overall growth. * The Hidden Tax of Complexity: Why adding "one more SKU" taxes management bandwidth, operations, and capital far more than founders realize. * Top-Line Vanity vs. Enterprise Value: Shifting away from chasing rapid top-line revenue to building a sustainable, margin-accretive business model. * Listening to Consumer Behavior: How feedback from parents led to pivoting into mini meat sticks and capturing the expanding kids' lunchbox market. * The Retailer Reality Check: What a brand truly owes the shelf after getting authorized, and why distribution without demand is a dangerous trap. * Founder Discipline: Why the hardest part of scaling is learning to stop inventing new products and start mastering the core.
