Welcome to a special edition of LIFTS x Connected Health & Fitness, brought to you by Cascadia, where we explore the future of fitness, wellness, and human performance. Recorded live during an exclusive CEO Leadership Dinner at the Connected Health & Fitness Summit in New York, hosts Matthew Januszek and Mohammed Iqbal are joined by three industry leaders to discuss what it takes to lead through transformation in one of the world's fastest-evolving industries. As fitness, healthcare, AI, longevity, and consumer expectations continue to converge, today's leaders are navigating unprecedented opportunities and challenges. This conversation explores how CEOs are scaling global businesses, embracing emerging technologies, building resilient cultures, and preparing their organisations for the future. Joining the discussion are Philipp Roesch-Schlanderer, CEO & Co-Founder of EGYM and Co-Chairman & Co-Founder of Playlist; Brandon Dawson, Chairman & CEO of 10X Health System; and Frank Britt, CEO of Aescape. Philipp shares the story behind the EGYM and Wellpass merger, explains how AI is transforming every function within the organisation, and why the fitness industry has an opportunity to shift healthcare from treatment to prevention. Brandon discusses the future of human optimisation, personalised healthcare, and AI, while sharing the leadership principles that have helped him build and scale multiple high-growth businesses. Frank reflects on his personal battle with leukemia, the turnaround of Aescape, and why recovery, robotics, and evidence-based innovation are creating an entirely new category within health and wellness. Together, they explore one of the defining leadership challenges of our time: how to build organisations that thrive through uncertainty rather than simply survive it. For founders, operators, investors, executives, and anyone leading through change, this episode offers practical lessons on leadership, innovation, resilience, and the future direction of the health and fitness industry.

Charles D. Smith spent his career as one of the NBA's premier shot blockers and an Olympian, but the transformation that defined his second act required something far more difficult than anything he faced on the court. After retiring from professional basketball, Smith spent seven years in therapy rebuilding how he thought, communicated, and led, a process he describes not as a transition but as a full transformation. Today, Smith is chairman and CEO of Urban Icon Global, a company working directly with governments and civic leaders across Africa to design sports, entertainment, and economic development projects. His investment conferences and cross cultural initiatives have generated over a billion dollars in collaborations across five continents, connecting CEOs, dignitaries, private equity firms, and family offices from New York to Dubai. With operations now active in Zanzibar and expanding into Nairobi, Ethiopia, and Uganda, Smith is positioning Urban Icon Global to unlock a piece of the 40 billion dollar African sports and entertainment market, built on a humanitarian foundation rather than a real estate model.On this episode of The Reboot Chronicles Podcast, we sit down with Charles D. Smith, chairman and CEO of Urban Icon Global, to unpack how he rebuilt himself after professional sports, why he chose Zanzibar as the starting point for an East African expansion, how faith and relationships became the foundation of his business strategy, and what it takes to build a scalable platform in a market most investors still misunderstand. Smith also shares the personal story behind his approach to leadership, accountability, and legacy.
The following article of the Entrepreneurs industry is: 'The Invisible Equation of Talent and Customer Loyalty' by Matías Fernández, Chairman & CEO, Acute Talent.
Michael Walrath, Chairman and CEO of Yext, returns to break down why the market has left a profitable, $400 million mid-cap public software company trading at one times revenue, even with over $100 million in EBITDA. He joins AJ Bruno and Asad Zaman to argue that the so-called SaaS apocalypse has almost no data behind it, that most AI layoffs are really a decade of go-to-market overhiring unwinding, and that boring compounders still out-return the hypergrowth darlings. Topics include how venture capital distorts software valuations, why no one is coming to help the 2021 unicorns stuck in broken cap tables, the great GTM despecialization, and the extend-and-pretend game inside venture funds. Plus, a Quiz Pro Quo on new business creation in the US and a Bulls and Bears debate on the future of mid-cap software and the stickiness of the AI platform. Read Michael's essay, No One's Coming to Help You: https://x.com/michaelpwalrath/status/2051364181237010778 Key Takeaways: - The market has left profitable mid-cap software for dead in favor of AI-native growth stories, and Michael Walrath, Chairman and CEO at Yext, leaned into how strange that is for a business that still prints cash. As he put it, "who's writing our obituary? It's the venture capitalists who are funding high-growth ARR companies," even as those same firms can't say what that ARR really means. - The loudest voices setting software valuations are venture investors, and Michael argued their certainty is out of step with their actual hit rate. He called them "remarkably sure of themselves for guys whose whole business model is being right 5 to 10% of the time," noting that being right much more often than that would mean a VC is playing it too safe. - Michael's answer to the hypergrowth-or-die mindset is that durable value comes from compounding cash flow, not chasing the next high-growth story. Pointing to a century of market history and operators like Berkshire Hathaway and Liberty Media, he said, "if you compound effectively, you will out-return these super high growth stories, unless those super high growth stories eventually become compounders." - A lot of the layoffs being blamed on AI may be a decade of go-to-market overhiring finally unwinding. Michael framed the skeptic's question directly: "is it really AI? Or is this a choice that you're making because you overhired for 10 years." Asad Zaman, CEO at Sales Talent Agency, agreed, pointing out that even inside the most AI-native companies he visits, the fundamental way the business runs has not really changed.

In this episode of This Month in Banking, we're joined by Matt Burke, Chairman & CEO of Mutual Bancorp, the mutual holding company for Cape Cod Five, Fidelity Bank, and soon Bluestone Bank. Matt brings a front‑line perspective on how community banks can rethink growth in today's challenging environment—where deposit behavior, technology expectations, and consolidation pressures are reshaping the industry. We dig into how mutual institutions are approaching expansion, why shared‑services holding companies are becoming a strategic alternative to traditional bank mergers, and what really drives successful mutual‑to‑mutual partnerships. Matt also shares the importance of cultural alignment, diversification, and trust when combining institutions without a monetary exchange. Looking ahead, Matt outlines the conversations he believes bank leaders must be having today—around growth strategy, relationship development, efficiency, community presence, and organizational structure—to stay competitive over the next 12–24 months. Whether you're a bank executive, board member, or part of a strategic planning team, this episode offers practical insights into the evolving growth models shaping community banking.

When a business emerges that not only addresses the issue but also dramatically improves environmental impact, my attention is piqued.Azure Printed Homes, co-founded by Gene Eidelman, is doing just that. With cutting-edge technology, they're printing homes from recycled materials. Their mission is clear: build faster, reduce costs and minimize environmental harm."We started the company with three bullets: build faster, build less expensive and less environmental impact," Gene said in today's episode.Gene and his team have created large-format 3D printers that produce the modules of a house—floor, walls and ceiling—in just 24 hours. It's a staggering time savings compared to traditional construction, which can take 90 to 180 days. That efficiency doesn't sacrifice quality, thanks to their controlled, factory-based process.The company's origins lie in tragedy. After the Woolsey Fire devastated Malibu, Gene volunteered to help families navigate the rebuilding process. The experience galvanized him to rethink construction. "We really were still building the traditional way," he recalled. "If we don't have innovation, it'll be impossible to rebuild now."Today, Azure Printed Homes is delivering units across California, Georgia, Colorado, Arkansas and beyond. And they're doing it using recycled plastic. "We can use about 6,000 to 7,000 pounds of recycled material a day," Gene explained. "I can't think of any other industry that does that."They aren't just building homes. They're offering people a chance to be part of a solution. Azure has raised over $2 million from 2,000 investors across 46 states and 23 countries through regulation crowdfunding."What I love about crowdfunding is we now have 2,000 true partners," Gene told me. One early investor who started with just $1,000 ultimately brought in over $400,000 in additional investment and leasing support.The momentum continues. You can learn more and invest at s4g.biz/Azure before their campaign closes on April 26. This isn't just another startup. Azure is redefining what's possible in housing—and they're doing it with help from the crowd.tl;dr:Azure Printed Homes builds affordable, sustainable housing by 3D printing modular units from recycled plastic materials.Gene Eidelman co-founded the company after witnessing the devastating effects of the Woolsey Fire in Malibu.The factory-based printing process reduces build time from months to days, cuts costs and limits environmental harm.Azure has raised over $2 million via five crowdfunding campaigns, creating a community of 2,000 supportive investors.Gene's superpower is creating needed solutions through innovation, persistence and a mission-driven approach to housing and sustainability.How to Develop Solution Creation As a SuperpowerGene Eidelman's superpower is the ability to create solutions people genuinely need."This is my fourth startup, and honestly, I've never been involved in something that when you just offer a picture rendering where people say, I need to have it," Gene said. He explained that the core of their work at Azure Printed Homes is solving the real problem of affordable housing. By creating high-quality, attractive homes made from recycled materials that are produced quickly and inexpensively, he and his team are directly responding to one of society's greatest needs. "Affordable housing does not need to look ugly," he emphasized, reflecting a commitment not only to function but also to dignity.One story that illustrates Gene's superpower is the origin of Azure Printed Homes. After living through the Woolsey Fire and volunteering to help displaced families, Gene recognized the deep flaws in traditional construction. Rather than accept the slow, expensive and environmentally harmful status quo, he helped create a company that uses recycled materials and large-scale 3D printing to build homes in just 24 hours. What began as a community response evolved into a growing enterprise with national reach.To develop the superpower of solution creation, Gene implicitly offers several actionable tips:Identify what people desperately need; don't just chase trends.Combine deep domain expertise with a willingness to reimagine old methods.Prioritize speed, cost and environmental sustainability when designing new solutions.Stay committed even when others say it's impossible.Leverage global innovation and customize it to local needs.Use crowdfunding not only for funding but to build a community of believers and advocates.By following Gene Eidelman's example and advice, you can make solution creation a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses. You do you!Guest ProfileGene Eidelman (he/him):Cofounder, Azure Printed HomesAbout Azure Printed Homes: Azure Printed Homes is fundamentally changing the construction industry by leveraging 3D printing technology using recycled polymers and fiberglass to prefab tiny homes, ADUs, affordable homes and units for housing after natural disasters 70% faster and 30% less expensive than existing construction methods.

Too many founders underestimate the difficulty, thinking that once their campaign goes live, the crowd will come running. The truth, as Jason Fishman explains, is that success starts long before a campaign launches.Jason, Co-Founder and CEO of Digital Niche Agency (DNA) and host of the "Test. Optimize. Scale." podcast, is one of the industry's most experienced investor acquisition experts. He helps founders raise capital by creating marketing funnels that turn strangers into advocates. In today's episode, he shared the single most important element of a successful crowdfunding raise: planning."If you fail to plan, you plan to fail," Jason said. "Imagine launching a website tomorrow and trying to bring 50,000 people towards it and get 1,000 of those people to convert at a transactional value of $1,000 or more."That's the scale of the challenge many founders face without realizing it. Jason broke down how campaigns that succeed aren't just lucky—they're methodical. They use strategies built on industry research and competitive marketing audits. These show founders what messaging and channels are working and which aren't, enabling them to craft a custom roadmap for every stage of their campaign.He encourages founders to go deep on pre-launch preparation. That includes clearly identifying audiences, traffic sources, and strategic partnerships. According to Jason, it also means fine-tuning the content and offering page to ensure it's optimized for conversions."You still need to have a well-thought-out plan on where that traffic's coming from," he noted, even for small campaigns targeting $50,000. "One way or the other, I need to figure out how am I getting those actual visits to my offering page."Jason and his team at DNA have helped clients raise hundreds of millions of dollars from the crowd. The secret? They treat marketing as a science—and a strategy-first mindset is always step one.To hear more from Jason, check out this episode and join us at SuperCrowdLA, where he'll speak twice and be available throughout the event. Don't miss the chance to learn from one of the best in the business.tl;dr:Jason Fishman explains why strategic planning and marketing are essential for crowdfunding success at any scale.He shares how the most successful campaigns use research and competitor audits to map traffic and conversions.Jason emphasizes that even small campaigns must create momentum with targeted audiences and compelling content.His superpower, generating excitement, helps him motivate teams, founders, and friends to rally around a vision.Jason encourages understanding your audience's fears and desires to inspire action and build lasting engagement.How to Develop Inspiring Excitement As a SuperpowerJason Fishman's superpower is his ability to inspire excitement and rally people around a shared goal. “Getting people excited…has been present my whole life,” Jason explained. He shared how this skill underpins his success in building impactful marketing campaigns, emphasizing that understanding what drives and motivates people is key. Jason applies this talent to craft compelling messaging and visuals that move audiences to action.Illustrative Story:Jason shared a personal anecdote about planning a wedding for his wife's cousin, who had been overwhelmed by the process. By addressing objections and highlighting exciting details, Jason turned their reluctance into enthusiasm. The result was a beautiful wedding overlooking the beach, with Jason even serving as the DJ. This story exemplifies his ability to energize others and create positive outcomes.Tips for Developing the Superpower:Understand Your Audience: Identify what excites and motivates them, as well as their fears.Communicate the Vision: Show others what success looks like and why it matters.Address Objections: Turn concerns into opportunities by re-framing challenges in a positive light.Leverage Energy: Use your enthusiasm to inspire and rally others around shared goals.By following Jason's example and advice, you can make inspiring excitement a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses.

In today's episode, Alex Fisher, CEO and CCO of Netcapital Securities, shared how her team empowers businesses by leveraging a comprehensive suite of tools including Reg A, Reg D, and Reg CF offerings. Her insights highlight the importance of tailoring fundraising strategies to meet the unique needs of each company, ensuring both flexibility and success.Alex explained, “When people hear crowdfunding, they kind of lump all of the different offering types and ways to raise capital together.” Netcapital's approach, however, recognizes the nuances of these methods. For instance, Reg CF allows companies to raise up to $5 million from the general public, while Reg D removes the cap but limits investments to accredited investors. Combining these strategies can create opportunities for businesses to achieve their goals more effectively.For Alex, the innovation lies in the ability to use these regulations strategically. She noted, “Companies who look to utilize both offering types at the same time are being very strategic… using the Reg CF bucket to open the investment opportunity to their broad network,” including customers and social media followers. Meanwhile, Reg D can attract larger investments from accredited investors such as venture capitalists.One of the most exciting developments Alex discussed is the potential for liquidity in crowdfunding. While much of the focus has been on raising capital, Netcapital is exploring ways to offer investors opportunities for future liquidity. This forward-thinking approach benefits both issuers and investors, enhancing the overall value of crowdfunding.Netcapital's role as both a broker-dealer and a funding portal sets it apart from other platforms. “Under Reg CF, companies are limited to listing on one portal at a time,” Alex explained. “That restriction doesn't exist in Regulation A or Regulation D and doesn't apply to broker-dealers.” This flexibility allows Netcapital to collaborate with other platforms, creating a synergistic ecosystem that benefits companies and investors alike.By combining innovative strategies with a deep understanding of regulatory frameworks, Alex and her team at Netcapital are helping businesses raise capital smarter, faster, and more effectively.If you're considering crowdfunding for your business, Alex's expertise offers a roadmap for success. As she put it, “It's very facts and circumstances based… You want to understand the stage of the company, the industry, and the networks they're a part of.”tl;dr:Alex Fisher explains how Netcapital combines Reg CF, Reg A, and Reg D to fundraise strategically.She highlights the untapped potential for liquidity in crowdfunding, benefiting both issuers and investors.Netcapital's broker-dealer status allows for unique flexibility and collaboration across fundraising platforms.Alex's intellectual curiosity drives her personal growth and her ability to connect with clients.She shares actionable tips for fostering intellectual curiosity to fuel professional and personal success.How to Develop Intellectual Curiosity As a SuperpowerAlex Fisher's superpower is her intellectual curiosity, a trait she describes as “thinking deeply and critically about a number of things.” This mindset drives her to question established norms, explore new ideas, and continuously improve both personally and professionally. Alex explained, “It's about not just accepting things for how they are and constantly thinking about how to do things better.” Her curiosity fuels her ability to connect with clients on a deeper level, understanding not just their business goals but also their personal motivations.Illustrative Story:Alex shared how rekindling her love of reading helped her rediscover her intellectual curiosity. After years of focusing solely on textbooks, regulations, and professional development, she began reading for personal interest in 2022. Since then, she has read over 70 books, which has broadened her perspective and improved her ability to think creatively. This shift has positively impacted her professional life by enabling her to approach challenges with fresh ideas and a more holistic understanding.Tips for Developing Intellectual Curiosity:Ask “Why” and “How” Questions: Dive deeper into processes, systems, and decisions to understand their purpose and function.Read Widely: Explore books and resources outside your professional field to gain new perspectives.Embrace Continuous Improvement: Focus on finding better ways to do things, even if the current method works.Connect Personally: Take time to understand the motivations and passions of the people you work with.Be Open to Exploration: Allow yourself to engage in activities that don't have an immediate or tangible impact.By following Alex Fisher's example and advice, you can make intellectual curiosity a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses.

We discussed a few things including:1. Kay's career journey2. The startup/funding landscape, particularly for women3. Springboard accelerator and thesis4. Trends, challenges and opportunities re new ventures and fundingKay Koplovitz is the founder and former Chairman & CEO of USA Networks, the SyFy Channel and USA Networks International, a multi-billion-dollar cable program company. Ms. Koplovitz ran the network for 21 years before stepping down in 1998, at which time it was sold for $4.5 billion. She is the visionary who created the business model for cable networks by introducing the concept of two revenue streams: licensing and advertising, adopted worldwide. It all started with her insatiable curiosity about satellite communications, a concept she first heard from author Arthur C Clark and his work on geosynchronous orbiting satellites. It was the introduction of satellite distribution into the cable industry that launched an industry. In 1998, then-President Clinton appointed Kay to chair the bipartisan National Women's Business Council (NWBC). Her research found that $104 billion in venture capital went over the transom, but only 1.7 percent went to women. VCs in Silicon Valley told Kay they had never seen any women come to pitch them. It was time to open the door to VC capital and bring women in. By 2000, Kay was compelled to launch Springboard Enterprises, which she co-founded as a nonprofit 501(c)(3) accelerator that propels women-led companies in technology and life sciences to raise capital, now powered by a community of over 5,000 industry specific experts. They lift them to scale and sustainability with access to capital, business partnerships and an entrusted global community. In 2014, Ms. Koplovitz co-founded the New York Fashion Tech Lab (NYFTL.com), bringing promising technology companies in collaboration with the fashion and consumer retail industry. Today they are leading Ai technology integration in Retail.In its 25 th anniversary year, Kay continues as Chairman of Springboard Enterprises, where, under her leadership, the organization's mission is to present and connect essential resources to over 930+ Springboard entrepreneurs. The measure of its success is in the results. A strong 25-year track record validated the value of Springboard Enterprises' alumnae, totaling $61 Billion in value since its launch, with 237 exits to strategic acquirers and 28 IPOs. In 2016, Ms. Koplovitz co-founded Springboard Growth Capital to bring growth-stage investments to women-led companies, building iconic brands with the digital consumer in mind and a path to profitability in sight. She previously served on corporate boards of CA Technologies, Time Inc., Liz Claiborne, Kate Spade, ION Media Networks, Oracle, Instinet, Nabisco, General Re, and over 25 years as trustee on the nonprofit boards of The Paley Center for Media and the International Tennis Hall of Fame.#podcast #AFewThingsPodcast

Day is a multifaceted entrepreneur, investor, advisor, author, and political activist with a rich background spanning nearly three decades across various sectors such as e-commerce, healthcare, blockchain/cryptocurrency, AI, and clean technology. As a current fellow at the Brownstone Institute and the Chairman/CEO of the Daylight Freedom Foundation, Day combines his industry expertise with a deep commitment to advancing freedom and individual liberty. Day's foray into political activism began in 2008, catalyzed by the detrimental impact of government regulations, including Obamacare and Dodd-Frank, on his thriving healthcare business. This experience propelled him into the heart of political and non-profit advocacy, where he has since championed the cause of liberty. Notably, Day has led a non-profit think tank, initiated the Crony Awards to spotlight government and business collusion, and significantly contributed to the Free State Project's success in New Hampshire as its Chairman, fostering a community dedicated to liberty. In the political arena, Day's influence is substantial. He has served as Chairman of the Stark360 SuperPAC, significantly contributing to the election of over 100 candidates in New Hampshire, held leadership roles within the Republican Liberty Caucus at both state and national levels, and been an active member of the Hillsborough County and Bedford Republican Committees. Day's concern over the rising threat posed by Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs) inspired him to author the best-selling book, The Final Countdown: Crypto, Gold, Silver, and the People's Last Stand Against Tyranny by CBDCs. His 2024 Republican Presidential nomination campaign was a strategic effort to highlight the dangers of CBDCs, during which he engaged with numerous Congress members and influenced key political figures, including persuading Donald Trump to oppose CBDCs through discussions facilitated by Vivek Ramaswamy. His insights and activism have garnered attention from major news outlets such as The Epoch Times, Zero Hedge, Forbes, The Wall Street Journal, Fox News, The New York Times, and the Boston Globe, reflecting his significant impact on public discourse. At 48, Day is a prominent figure in his professional and political circles and a devoted father of four and...
