Send us a textFrom flipping dosas to flipping the script on who belongs in space, Dr. Srimathy Kesan's journey defies expectations at every turn. After 18 years as a homemaker who could barely remember her English vocabulary, a chance meeting with an old friend led to a Miami conference and an encounter with NASA that would change everything."Space chooses you," says Dr. Kesan, the founder of Space Kidz India and the only woman in the world to have launched 27 space missions. Her organization began by taking Indian children to space centers around the world, but she quickly realized that wasn't enough. "What are they going to do next?" she wondered. Despite having no technical background, she decided to teach children to build satellites—and the scientific establishment laughed.They're not laughing anymore. When Dr. Kesan and her team of rural teenagers created Kalamsat, the world's lightest satellite at just 64 grams, the international space community took notice. Later, when the Indian Space Research Organization challenged her to build a satellite in just six days—during a major festival when most of India was closed—she made 580 phone calls to gather components and pulled off what seemed impossible.Now she's embarking on her most ambitious project yet: Mission Shakti Sat, which is educating 12,000 girls from 108 countries about satellite building. One girl from each country will travel to India to build a payload destined for the moon. The project operates on small donations rather than major funding, embodying Dr. Kesan's belief that "every girl needs to sit at the table" where decisions are made.As "Space Mom" to children worldwide, she receives voice messages from girls in remote villages saying, "I don't want to go to school, I just want to do this mission." Her work proves that space exploration isn't just for wealthy nations or scientists with advanced degrees—it's for everyone with the courage to look up at the night sky and dream.Ready to help launch the next generation of space explorers? Even a small donation can help these girls reach the moon and beyond.Thanks for tuning in to this episode of Follow The Brand!

This week on a special episode of The Business, Kim Masters talks with Shrinking co-creator and star Jason Segel, recorded live at KCRW’s Annenberg Performance Studio.

Mark Flickinger shares his journey from engineering and building small businesses to working in private market investing at BIP Capital, where he helps both entrepreneurs and high-net-worth investors achieve their goals. He explains that private markets have grown as many high-quality companies remain private longer, creating opportunities for alpha that are less available in public markets, especially as IPO thresholds have risen. Flickinger highlights trends in alternatives, noting that while AI attracts attention, compelling private businesses can now be accessed at lower entry costs. We discuss... Mark Flickinger combines his engineering background with investment expertise to support both business owners and high-net-worth investors. Private markets have grown in importance as alternatives, moving beyond hedge funds to include a wide range of private companies. Value creation that once happened in small-cap public stocks is now largely occurring in private companies. Only one out of ten U.S.-based companies with $100 million or more in revenue is public, leaving most growth in private markets. Entrepreneurs increasingly stay private due to regulatory burdens and the ability to grow without going public. Business development companies (BDCs) were created to simplify private market investing for U.S.-based companies and investors. Entrepreneurs are increasingly using a hybrid approach of equity and debt to raise capital without overly diluting ownership. Taking on a partner or investor is worthwhile if they bring expertise and add significant value to the business. Debt can be advantageous if the business grows faster than the interest cost, making leverage an effective tool. Capital should be taken strategically to overcome growth hurdles, not just for the sake of raising funds. Many business owners excel in specific phases of growth and benefit from focusing on their strengths rather than the CEO role. The private credit market is likely to expand further, while banks continue to reduce direct lending to businesses. A robust AI plan is now a key factor in evaluating a company's long-term potential, beyond just naming conventions.

Building and selling a company is hard—but managing wealth afterward is a completely different challenge.Jay Jacobs knows this firsthand. An OG member of The Lifestyle Investor Mastermind, and my very first Private Client, Jay founded RAPID Manufacturing in 2001 and grew it over 17 years into the world's largest prototype sheet metal manufacturer and the second-largest prototype CNC machining business. RAPID's success was fueled by leveraging modern technology—and after selling the company for 9-figures, Jay launched Paperless Parts to give other manufacturers access to the same kinds of tools. Today, Paperless Parts is the #1 quoting and estimating software in manufacturing, with $25M ARR.But even with all that success, Jay faced a new reality after his exit: the skills that made him a world-class entrepreneur weren't the same ones he needed to protect and grow his wealth.As an entrepreneur, he was used to taking calculated risks, moving fast, and having full control over outcomes. As an investor, the rules were different—success meant slowing down, saying “no” more often than “yes,” and trusting others to be good stewards of his capital. The optimism and risk tolerance that served him in business could quickly become liabilities in investing.In this conversation, he shares how he made that transition—building a passive income stream to replace his paycheck, creating guardrails to avoid costly mistakes, and designing a life filled with impact, travel, and passion projects. You'll hear the mindset changes that guide his decisions, the relationships that open up high-quality deal flow, and the lessons that can help you avoid the costly mistakes that wipe out fortunes.In this episode, you'll learn: 1.) Why the skills that build a company aren't the same ones that grow and protect wealth—and how to make the shift from entrepreneur to investor.2.) The strategy behind Jay's leap from a 9-figure exit to building a $25M ARR industry leader in manufacturing software.3.) The lifestyle design strategies Jay uses to turn passions into profitable ventures and create unforgettable life experiences.Show Notes: LifestyleInvestor.com/252Tax Strategy MasterclassIf you're interested in learning more about Tax Strategy and how YOU can apply 28 of the best, most effective strategies right away, check out our BRAND NEW Tax Strategy Masterclass: www.lifestyleinvestor.com/taxStrategy Session For a limited time, my team is hosting free, personalized consultation calls to learn more about your goals and determine which of our courses or masterminds will get you to the next level.

Do Business. Do Life. — The Financial Advisor Podcast — DBDL
What if the #1 reason you feel burned out is because you're unknowingly doing three completely different jobs?In this solo episode, I break down the Triad Advisor Model—the exact system top firms are using to scale without sacrificing freedom. You'll see why trying to run your practice alone is like running a Chick-fil-A by yourself—taking orders at the register, cooking the food in the back, and delivering it to the table—and how to replace that chaos with a clear, scalable system that frees you up to grow.Most advisors try to grow by doing more, but that path leads to burnout and stalled revenue. Instead, I'll show you how to divide the advisor role into three specialized positions—selling, planning, and service—so you can build a business that grows beyond you.You'll learn how to hire the right people for each role, compensate them for long-term success, and create a repeatable “advisor pod” system you can scale like clockwork.4 of the biggest insights from Brad Johnson…#1.) The 3 Roles That End Advisor Burnout How a Chick-fil-A-style model splits the advisor job into selling, planning, and service—so you stop doing everything yourself and start scaling with ease. #2.) The Process to Hire, Train, and Scale on Repeat A step-by-step system to find the right people, develop their skills, and build “advisor pods” you can copy and paste as your firm grows. #3.) The Personalities That Thrive in Each Role Why matching natural strengths to each advisor seat is the key to efficiency, retention, and a better client experience. #4.) How to Grow New Advisors Without Risking Big Prospects From “never leave an empty seat” to the “reverse shotgun” approach, discover how to groom future selling advisors without putting your top clients on the line.SHOW NOTEShttps://bradleyjohnson.com/130FOLLOW BRAD JOHNSON ON SOCIALXInstagramLinkedInFOLLOW DBDL ON SOCIAL:YouTubeTwitterInstagramLinkedInFacebookDISCLOSURE DBDL podcast episode conversations are intended to provide financial advisors with ideas, strategies, concepts and tools that could be incorporated into their business and their life.

What's the fastest way to hit your goals in business? My client, Vincent Holthouse, will tell you it's not trial and error. It's not grinding away for years hoping something clicks. It's simple: find the people who already have the results you want—and model what works. In this 30-minute episode, Vincent breaks down how he applied that exact philosophy. He runs a thriving high-ticket coaching program in real estate, and once he decided to invest in mentoring instead of trying to figure it all out alone, his business scaled fast.

Running a successful advisory firm takes more than great client service - it also means learning how to lead a team and build infrastructure to support growth. This episode explores how developing leadership skills, hiring intentionally, and leaning into personal values can lay the foundation for a thriving, mission-driven business. Maggie Kulyk is the founder of Chicory Wealth, an RIA based in Decatur, Georgia, that operates virtually and oversees $760 million in AUM for 480 households. Listen in as Maggie shares how she grew from a self-described “terrible” manager into a visionary leader by making key hires with complementary strengths to her own, delegating wisely, and developing a strong leadership team. We discuss how her firm finds and trains homegrown advisors aligned with its values, how Maggie structured an internal ownership track for future successors, and why breaking away from a broker-dealer and going fee-only was the right move for her long-term vision.

“A photo in general is not going to win you business, but bad photos are going to lose you your business all the time because it absolutely crushes.”Ever dread getting new headshots or wonder if your photos help your speaking business? On this episode of The Speaker Lab, Grant Baldwin chats with photographer John DeMato about what matters when it comes to imagery and visual storytelling for speakers.John's best advice is that your branding photos aren't for you; they're for your audience. Every image should invite people into your world and show how you help them, building trust and credibility. This means going beyond stiff portraits and staged shots. John stresses having a strategy: your photos should tell the story of who you serve, how you solve problems, and what working with you looks like. Think candid behind-the-scenes moments, action shots, and authentic glimpses of your process, not just you on stage with a mic.Additionally, John advises focusing on natural, in-the-moment photos rather than stiff posing. And while iPhone snaps work for everyday social posts, invest in professionally captured images for your website or speaker kit. Bring outfits you'd wear on stage, choose simple backgrounds, and use natural light to keep things genuine. Most importantly, if your brand changes, refresh your photo library!You'll learn:The purpose and power of speaker photosDefinition of visual storytelling for speakersStrategic approaches to speaker brandingCommon mistakes speakers make with photographyBuilding authenticity and comfort in photosDealing with skepticismCapturing genuine “magic moments”And much, much more!“[Branding] photos aren't for you, they're for them.
