Welcome back to the Alt Goes Mainstream podcast.We were live from Berlin, which becomes the “capital of private capital” in June as the private equity's industry leaders make the annual pilgrimage to the city for one of the marquee private equity conferences, SuperReturn Berlin.Much of the SuperReturn conference is centered on fundraising. GPs take up every available space — from hotel rooms to Tiny Space cabins that line the parking spots on Budapester Strasse outside of the InterContinental conference venue — to conduct meetings with LPs.With Prosek Partners and former Bloomberg TV journalist Deirdre Bolton as my producer, along with her team, we took over a Tiny Space cabin to hold big conversations with some of the industry's leading alternative asset managers.Our first conversation was with Apax Co-CEOs Andrew Sillitoe and Mitch Truwit.Apax is one of the pioneers in the private equity industry. The firm's rich history dates back to the 1970s, when its founders, Alan Patricof (US), Sir Ronald Cohen (UK), and Maurice Tchénio (France), came together to establish the first US-UK partnership firm in private equity. During that time period, the firm backed Steve Jobs and the first iteration of Apple. The UK and US firms merged in 1981, laying the foundation for Apax.Today, Apax stands at over $80B in aggregate funds raised. The firm underwent its second leadership transition in 2014, when Andrew and Mitch were elected as Co-CEOs, succeeding Martin Halusa, who became Chairman.Apax sits in a unique position. They are a scaled platform that focuses on the middle market. They operate across three sectors, Tech, Services, and Digital / Consumer, infusing a digital DNA and value creation team into everything they do. Their platform spans “a mile wide and a mile deep,” which is what much of the conversation between Andrew, Mitch, and me unpacked.We had a fascinating discussion about the current state of private equity and the middle market, why Apax focuses on “density-driven business models,” why the firm focuses on carveouts in the middle market, what's underappreciated about the middle market, why it's important to “buy in the right neighborhood and fix it up,” and how the firm's core values of “having impact through insight and tenacity” drive every decision they make.BiosAndrew Sillitoe has been Co-CEO of Apax since 2014. He is Chairman of the Apax Global Investment Committee and the Digital Investment Committee, amongst others. He is also a member of the Apax Executive Committee. He has been based in London since joining the Firm in 1998, focusing on Tech & Telco investments.Andrew has been involved in a number of investments including Inmarsat, Intelsat, King, Orange Switzerland, TIVIT, TDC and Unilabs.Prior to joining Apax, Andrew was a consultant at LEK. Andrew holds an MA in Politics, Philosophy and Economics from the University of Oxford and an MBA from INSEAD.BoardsAndrew has previously served on the boards of Inmarsat, King, Intelsat, Orange Switzerland and TDC.Mitch Truwit is Co-CEO of Apax, based in New York.Prior to joining Apax in 2006, Mitch was the President and CEO of Orbitz Worldwide between 2005 and 2006 and was the Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer of priceline.com between 2001 and 2005.Mitch is a graduate of Vassar College where he received a BA in Political Science. He also holds an MBA from the Harvard Business School.BoardsMitch serves as a Board member of Openlane and Trade Me. Prior boards include Advantage Sales & Marketing, Assured Partners, Dealer.com, Bankrate, Garda World, Hub International, Trader Canada, Boats Group and Quality Distribution Inc.Mitch serves on the charitable boards of the Apax Foundation, the John McEnroe Tennis Project, Posse and StreetSquash.Thanks, Andrew and Mitch, for a fascinating conversation and for sharing your expertise, wisdom, and passion at the intersection of investing and operating in private equity.Show Notes00:00 Meet Apax co-CEOs, Andrew Sillitoe and Mitch Truwit00:26 Andrew's Origins at Apax00:47 Private Equity Then vs Now01:25 Apax Growth and Values01:45 Curiosity as a Differentiator02:04 Mitch's Operator Background02:56 Why Mitch Joined Apax03:40 Defining the Middle Market04:14 Why Sub-Billion EV Works04:59 Middle Market Talent Gap05:20 Carve Outs as a Strategy05:29 TRADER Corporation - Canada App Turnaround06:12 Scaled Platform Advantage07:14 Digital DNA and AI Wave07:50 Top Line Growth Lever08:36 Add-ons and TAM Expansion09:33 ECI Case Study Roll Up10:07 Integration Over Collection10:28 Exit Options in a Bigger PE World10:59 Building for Multiple Buyers11:45 Fund Size Discipline12:34 Choosing Returns Over AUM13:16 Understanding Firm DNA14:01 Global Micro Investing14:49 Making Global Pods Work15:50 Scale Specialization Flexibility17:08 Where to Invest Now19:23 Buying Complexity for Value20:15 Moats and Investment Committee22:13 Why Middle Market Excites Them23:19 Future of PE and AI at Scale24:50 Impact Insight Tenacity Culture25:54 Obligation to Dissent Story26:55 Aspirational Brand Analogy27:48 Wrap Up and Thanks

When God sees you, what does He think? In this episode, Jeff and Tom discuss:  Why being needs to be grounded in identity and doing needs to be grounded in your being. What having an abundant life means and how it may change. Building abundance from the Father's perspective, not the world's perspective. Coming to understand that the results belong to God. The spiritual battle we are in every day.     Key Takeaways:  What you are called to do right now may not be what you're called to do in a different season of life. Steward what God has given you and is calling you to do right now.  There is no reason to separate our business decisions from our walks with Christ. The more you walk with Him, the closer you will be to Him, and the more abundant your life will be.  When you understand how God sees you, you will be able to work from your worth, not for your worth.  You don't have to be all one thing or another. You are not competing with others who are going for more-more-more. You can base who you are on your being and the gifts and desires God has given you.     "What it means for an abundant life is as unique to each individual, as the individual is." —  Tom McGehee   Episode References:  Halftime:  https://halftimeinstitute.org/ Abide & Lead: https://abideandlead.com/ Left of Bang by Patrick Van Horne and Jason A.

Is SaaS dying? Andres Klaric, Co-Founder and Co-CEO of Fuse, joins Jeremy Au to explain why he believes we have reached "peak SaaS" and why AI agents are forcing software companies to charge for outcomes instead of seats. Andres shares how he spent a decade on Wall Street to build a war chest, launched during the 2020 pandemic, and pivoted from automotive refinancing to an AI-native loan origination system now used by more than 100 lenders. He breaks down the $25 million Series A, the $5 million "rescue fund" that frees credit unions from legacy contracts, and why context-rich teams, not newcomers, win the AI race. For founders, venture capitalists, and operators across Singapore, Indonesia, Vietnam, the Philippines, Thailand, and Malaysia, this is a playbook on disciplined pivots, outcome-based pricing, and building durable B2B software in a highly regulated industry. Whether you are raising a Series A, rethinking your SaaS pricing model, or navigating enterprise sales, Andres offers a candid look at accountability, agentic AI, and the immigrant grit behind the journey from Bolivia to a fast-scaling fintech.

As financial institutions move beyond AI experimentation, the primary bottleneck is no longer capability; it is governance. In this episode, Yoav Naveh, Co-Founder and Co-CEO at Reindeer AI, examines how enterprises can operationalize agentic AI inside regulated financial workflows, including the two-loop oversight model that keeps agents compliant, self-correcting, and continuously improving. The conversation covers what it means for agents to self-heal when they encounter exceptions, how decision logic should be governed in practice, and how to approach the build-versus-buy decision in a way that places accountability ahead of capability. This episode is sponsored by Reindeer AI. In this episode, we cover how enterprises in banking and financial services are operationalizing agentic AI inside regulated workflows — and what governance infrastructure actually makes it sustainable at scale.

100,000 people are expected in Dublin City Centre this Saturday for the annual Dublin Pride Parade. Across the weekend, there will be plenty of events featuring music, comedy, history and more. With Anton to explain more is Jed Dowling, Programme Director of Pride at Work and the Co-CEO of Dublin Pride.

On today's episode, we welcome Dr. Stephanie Venn-Watson, Co-Founder and Co-CEO of Seraphina Therapeutics, the company behind Fatty15. Stephanie is a veterinary epidemiologist, author of The Longevity Nutrient, and one of the world's leading experts on C15:0 — the first essential fatty acid discovered in over 90 years. Stephanie's story starts in an unexpected place: studying aging Navy dolphins. While working to improve their long-term health, she and her team discovered C15:0, a fatty acid that may play a critical role in strengthening cells and supporting healthy aging. That discovery led to years of research, more than 100 peer-reviewed studies, dozens of patents, and ultimately Fatty15 — a science-backed supplement designed to support cellular health, longevity, and overall wellness. In this episode, Stephanie shares how a breakthrough in dolphin health became a human health innovation, why she believes we have misunderstood certain saturated fats for decades, and what consumers should know about C15:0, cellular fragility, and healthy aging. We also talk about building trust in the crowded wellness space, turning serious science into a consumer brand, and why some of the biggest discoveries come from questioning what everyone assumes is true.

In this episode, host Kalie Moore sits down with Angela Yu, Co-Founder and Co-CEO of StoReel, to explore one of the fastest-growing entertainment categories that gaming executives should be paying attention to: AI-native microdramas. While many still think of microdramas as shortened TV shows, Angela argues they have far more in common with mobile games, relying on retention loops, emotional hooks, creator ecosystems, user acquisition economics, and increasingly interactive experiences. She shares how StoReel is building both a consumer platform for AI-generated serialized stories and a creation suite that enables creators to produce content dramatically faster and cheaper than traditional production methods. Along the way, they unpack the KPI performance of AI-produced titles and what game studios can learn from the category's rapid growth.The conversation also explores one of the most fascinating cultural divides in technology today: why attitudes toward AI look dramatically different in China versus the West. Having spent half her life in both markets, Angela offers a unique perspective on why creators, companies, and consumers in China have embraced AI far more aggressively, and what that means for the future of entertainment. They discuss creator ownership, AI-powered storytelling, underserved content genres, interactive characters, and why the next generation of entertainment may look less like Hollywood and more like a creator-driven marketplace where anyone can build, monetize, and distribute serialized stories. The episode ultimately examines how AI is reshaping not just production workflows, but the entire relationship between creators, audiences, and entertainment itself.We'd also like to thank Heroic Labs for making this episode possible!

In this episode of Take-Away with Sam Oches, Sam talks with Lance Juhas, co-CEO of Piada Italian Street Food, a Columbus-based Italian fast casual that has grown to 62 locations in 16 years. Piada was founded by Bravo Brio cofounder Chris Doody and it's earned a reputation over the years as a great operator with a one-of-a-kind menu — one that's helped it enjoy 29 straight quarters of same-store sales growth. But to this point Piada's growth has been slow and deliberate as the company pieces together the right playbook for growth. That playbook is ready, and Lance — whose career included 16 years with Bravo Brio after stops with J. Alexander's and Hillstone Restaurant Group — is steering the brand into its next growth phase. He joined the podcast to talk about all the little details that go into a great restaurant experience, and about the right way to evolve a restaurant business.In this conversation, you'll find out why:Your customers will tell you what your star menu item is Hospitality is the ingredient that brings customers back You should never take the crab out of the crab cakes Customization is not for everybody You've got to earn the right to growA guest's endorsement is gold — and harder and harder to getRegister for CREATE here: https://informaconnect.com/create/ Have feedback or ideas for Take-Away?

Erik Hirsch, Co-CEO of Hamilton Lane, explains how value creation has shifted from public to private markets as companies stay private longer and raise more capital pre-IPO. He argues this trend can leave public investors with reduced post-IPO upside while creating opportunities in private markets. He also reframes secondaries as a key portfolio tool, highlighting how buyers can benefit from illiquidity and pricing inefficiencies.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Join our champion program: mark@themomentumcompany.comAttend a Thriving Leader event: https://thriving-leader-2026.lovable.app/Instagram: @the.momentum.companyLinkedIn: /momentum-companyIn this episode of The Intentional Agribusiness Leader, Mark sits down with Adam Jason, Co-CEO of the Green Coffee Company, for a fascinating conversation about entrepreneurship, international agriculture, capital markets, and what it takes to build a business across cultures and continents.Adam defines intentionality simply:Know where you want to go.The path may not be straight. There will be twists, setbacks, and unexpected opportunities. But intentional leaders create clarity around the destination and continue moving toward it.Adam's journey is a perfect example.Originally a capital markets attorney advising Fortune 500 companies, boards of directors, and public offerings, Adam found himself at a crossroads familiar to many high performers:Stay on the traditional path—or build something of his own.What started as a month-long trip to Colombia ultimately became a life-changing opportunity. Through a chance introduction, Adam became involved in what would eventually become the Green Coffee Company, helping transform a fragmented agricultural market into the largest coffee operation in Colombia.A major theme throughout the conversation is this:Opportunity often lives where complexity exists.Building a business in rural Colombia required much more than financial expertise.It required:Navigating cultural differencesBuilding trust in local communitiesWorking across language barriersUnderstanding family-owned agricultural operationsEarning credibility through action over timeBecause in many coffee-growing communities, business isn't just business.It's family.It's legacy.It's identity.The conversation also highlights a powerful entrepreneurial lesson:Sometimes the market tells you what it needs.The Green Coffee Company wasn't built around a love of coffee alone.It was built around recognizing investor demand.Investors wanted:Hard assetsAgricultural exposureCash-flowing opportunitiesInternational diversificationCoffee farms became the vehicle that connected those needs with a growing opportunity in Colombia.As the business evolved, so did the vision.What started as an agricultural investment thesis became a vertically integrated coffee enterprise with production, sourcing, processing, branding, and distribution capabilities.Today, the company manages approximately 10 million coffee trees across 10,000 acres and sources additional coffee from thousands of surrounding growers.The episode also explores one of the company's biggest strategic moves:Securing the North American rights to the iconic Juan Valdez coffee brand.Rather than spending decades building awareness from scratch, Adam and his team saw an opportunity to leverage one of the most recognizable names in coffee and pair it with their own production capabilities.It's a reminder that growth isn't always about creating something new.Sometimes it's about recognizing the value that already exists.Another key theme throughout the episode is scale through partnership.Rather than acquiring every available coffee farm, the company is increasingly focused on supporting smaller producers by purchasing coffee directly from local farmers and integrating them into a larger ecosystem.The result:More opportunity for local growersGreater efficiency for the businessIncreased scalability without massive capital investmentThe episode closes with a reminder that entrepreneurship often starts with a simple question:Where is value being overlooked?For Adam, the answer was sitting on the mountainsides of Colombia.For others, it may be somewhere entirely different.But the leaders who build extraordinary businesses are often the ones willing to go where others aren't looking.Because clarity creates momentum.And momentum creates opportunity.Listen if you are:Building a business in a complex or emerging marketInterested in entrepreneurship and capital raisingCurious about the global coffee industryLooking for opportunities hidden inside fragmented marketsLeading a business through growth and expansionInterested in agricultural investing and international markets

Season 8, Episode 1: How did two lawyers turn a handful of Arizona fourplexes into a vertically integrated real estate powerhouse with over 20,000 units renovated? Today, we sit down with John Griggs, Co-CEO and Co-Founder of Presidium, to break down the strategy behind that rise. John shares how he spotted his first opportunity in the "golden age" of the Arizona housing market before shifting his conviction to Texas just as the landscape was beginning to transform.

In "Is Organized Tech Destroying the Small Logistics Entrepreneur" Joe Lynch and Nicholas Antoine, Co-Founder, Co-CEO, and Managing Partner of Red Arts Capital, discuss how mid-market logistics companies can leverage emerging automation and strategic "moats" to successfully survive and compete against tech-heavy enterprise giants. About Nick Antoine Nicholas Antoine is the Co-Founder, Co-CEO, and Managing Partner of Red Arts Capital, a private equity firm he co-founded in 2015 - at age 26 - to invest exclusively in supply chain and logistics businesses. A Princeton graduate, Nick began his career as an equity research analyst at Princeton Global Asset Management before joining Ariel Investments in Chicago, where he served as Chief of Staff to the Chairman and CEO of the $17 billion asset manager. At Red Arts, he leads fundraising, research, and investment thesis development, building one of the few Black-founded and -led PE firms in the country and one of the top-performing, ranked #7 on Bloomberg's 2025 Best-Performing U.S. Buyout Funds. Nick is a member of YPO and a board trustee of The Studio Museum in Harlem and WTTW (PBS Chicago). About Red Arts Capital Red Arts Capital is a Chicago-based private equity firm focused exclusively on partnering with North American supply chain and logistics businesses. Founded in 2015 by Nick Antoine and Chad Strader, Red Arts is a 100% Black-owned firm investing across the "supply chain economy" - freight, transportation, warehousing, contract packaging, and related middle-market companies with strong growth potential. In 2023, the firm closed its latest fund oversubscribed at $270M, above its $225M target, backed by institutional LPs including Prudential Financial, the University of Chicago's Office of Investments, and funds managed by Neuberger Berman. Red Arts pairs a sector-focused thesis with a belief that diversity drives performance - women represent roughly half the firm. Key Takeaways: Is Organized Tech Destroying the Small Logistics Entrepreneur In "Is Organized Tech Destroying the Small Logistics Entrepreneur" Joe Lynch and Nicholas Antoine, Co-Founder, Co-CEO, and Managing Partner of Red Arts Capital, discuss how mid-market logistics companies can leverage emerging automation and strategic "moats" to successfully survive and compete against tech-heavy enterprise giants. Firm Profile & Focus: Founded in 2015, Red Arts Capital is a 100% Black-owned, Chicago-based private equity firm that focuses exclusively on North American supply chain, logistics, and middle-market infrastructure businesses. Target Investment Profile: Unlike venture capital firms that hunt for speculative "hockey stick" growth, Red Arts invests $50M to $100M+ into established, profitable middle-market companies (typically family-owned with $100M to $500M in revenue) to provide liquidity and operational scaling. Strong Institutional Backing: Validating their sector-focused thesis, the firm closed its 2023 fund oversubscribed at $270M (surpassing its $225M target) backed by premier LPs like Prudential Financial and the University of Chicago. The Concept of "Organized Tech": Nick defines "organized technology" as a modern third form of power alongside organized people and organized capital. Large enterprise players use their scale and massive resources to deploy tech—and partner with startups for free trials—giving them a distinct, systemic advantage. An Opportunity, Not a Death Sentence: Organized tech is not inherently destroying small logistics entrepreneurs; rather, the risk lies in a lack of adaptability. Because AI and automated tools are becoming rapidly commoditized and affordable, small business survival depends on an entrepreneurial willingness to experiment. Building Defensive "Moats": To avoid competing strictly on commoditized pricing, successful logistics companies must build defensible moats. This includes high-touch customer service, strong cultural values that lower driver turnover, or geographic asset density (like uniquely zoned cross-dock terminals) that competitors cannot easily replicate. Outsized Returns from Small Tech Investments: Technology adoption doesn't require a massive overhaul to significantly impact the bottom line. In one LTL case study, Red Arts introduced a simple automated software tool to capture missed, manual accessorial charges, plugging a major revenue leak and yielding massive profit returns.

What if the biggest thing holding your business back isn't effort, strategy, or talent, but a lack of clarity?In this energizing episode of the Sacred Changemakers Podcast, I'm joined by Isabelle Mercier-Turcotte and Margarita Romano, Co-CEOs of LeapZone Strategies and founders of Trailblazers Retreat Center. Together, they are no-nonsense business growth catalysts known for helping entrepreneurs, leaders, and teams build brands, businesses, and lives by design, not by default. With more than 25 years of hands-on experience in brand positioning, marketing, leadership, and business growth, Isabelle and Margarita have worked with over 500 companies, including A&W, Robeez Footwear, TEDx, Earls Restaurants, IMAX, TD, and HSBC. Their work helps businesses become The First, The Best, or The Only, so their value becomes unmistakable and they can be chosen with confidence, regardless of price.This conversation brings together two powerful streams of wisdom. Isabelle brings the sharp, strategic lens of brand clarity, positioning, leadership, and business architecture, while Margarita brings a deeply embodied understanding of human behavior, energy, resonance, and the wisdom of horses. At Trailblazers, their retreat center on Vancouver Island, their equine partners help leaders and teams see what's really happening beneath the surface, because horses don't respond to performance, titles, or polished words. They respond to what's real.Together, we explore why so many businesses are missing clarity and how that affects everything from leadership and culture to sales, team alignment, execution, and growth. We talk about the difference between branding, positioning, and marketing, why so many purpose-led people over-function, and how leaders can stop carrying everything themselves and begin building with more courage, structure, and intention. This is a practical, honest, and deeply human conversation for coaches, founders, changemakers, and leaders who want to build meaningful work without losing themselves in hustle, chaos, or performance.Key TakeawaysWhy clarity is one of the greatest competitive advantages in business today.The difference between branding, positioning, and marketing, and why mixing them up creates confusion.How to become The First, The Best, or The Only in a way that feels true rather than forced.How horses reveal incongruence, energy, and leadership patterns that are often hidden in boardrooms.How to build a business and life by design, not by default.Learn More About Today's GuestLeapzone Strategies website ****→ www.leapzonestrategies.comMargarita's bestselling book: How To Love Without Limits →https://leapzone.lpages.co/book/Ebook: The First.

Be intentional. Design Your New Life in Retirement. Our next groups start in September. The very early registration discount ends June 21st. Learn more. What if everything you've been told about retirement is quietly working against you? John Coleman has spent his career around money and purpose, which makes his message all the more striking: money is a tool, not the point. In his new book, Good Money: Six Steps to Building a Financial Life with Purpose, he rethinks personal finance around human flourishing, and one of his steps reframes retirement itself: save for freedom, not retirement. We explore why the conventional retirement script, a withdrawl into pure leisure, carries real costs to meaning, community, and health; how continued, self-directed work changes both the math and the meaning of your plan; why your worth is never your net worth; and how to design your next chapter deliberately. It's a conversation that bridges the financial and non-financial sides of retirement, looks at retirement and purpose, and gives you a fresh way to think about what comes next. John Coleman joins us from Atlanta. ________________________ Bio John Coleman is the author of Good Money: Six Steps to Building a Financial Life with Purpose and The HBR Guide to Crafting Your Purpose.

Money is good only in so much as you use it for things that build flourishing in your lives and the lives of others.”  On Identity “Too often we fall into making our identity the things that are easiest to measure rather than things that are most important.” On Purpose “I believe purpose is a thing that's built, not found. It's crafted, it's not found.” __________________________ About The Retirement Wisdom Podcast There are many podcasts on retirement, often hosted by financial advisors with their own financial motives, that cover the money side of the street.

This episode is brought to you by Your Clockwise Week—a personalized weekly structure built around your actual life, not an ideal one. If your week feels full but not fitting, you can learn more at mikevardy.com/yourclockwiseweek.There is a difference between confidence and bravado, and most people have never really had to find out which one they actually carry. Confidence — real confidence — is built in the gap between the work you've done and the hard thing in front of you. Bravado is what fills that gap when the work hasn't been done. My guest in this bonus episode has spent decades inside some of the most pressure-tested environments in business, and that distinction was never abstract for him. It was survival.George Barrios is the former Co-President and Co-CEO of WWE and the author of Sometimes Wrong, Never in Doubt: How a Cuban Kid from Queens Transformed WWE. The book traces the lessons he gathered growing up in Flushing, Queens, through his rise inside corporate America, and into the center of a global media pivot that Wall Street initially ridiculed — and later celebrated as one of the most brilliant transformations in the public markets. I jumped at the chance to have this conversation. As a lifelong wrestling fan, I made that abundantly clear. This is a bonus episode, and it more than earned its runtime.Six Discussion PointsReal confidence isn't a personality trait — it's a record of preparation. The "sometimes wrong, never in doubt" mantra only holds up when it's earned through genuine craft-level work, not performance or false bravado.The Swamp of Despair is a real and necessary part of doing anything great — George and his co-CEO Michelle Wilson lived through it during WWE's transformation, and the graphic that mapped that arc became a touchstone for leading others through uncertainty without showing doubt.Your first zip code never fully leaves you — George's Queens upbringing shaped his willingness to disagree, push back intellectually, and refuse to accept "that's just how it is" as an answer. That edge has a shadow side, but directed well, it becomes a competitive advantage.Winning the battle for time, not just eyeballs — the strategic reframe that drove WWE's entire media approach was measuring time spent consuming content, not raw view counts. Attention lives inside time, and that distinction changed everything.Writing is the process by which you discover you don't know what you're talking about — George's most consistent advice to anyone starting out is to read and write relentlessly, not as discipline, but as the only real way to develop a genuine point of view.Inversion thinking as a practical tool — when George and Michelle were on the phone with lawyers trying to shut down pirated WWE content in China, flipping the assumption entirely led to one of the most counterintuitive and consequential decisions of the transformation. Assume you're wrong. Ask what you'd do then.Three Connection PointsSometimes Wrong, Never in Doubt by George BarriosReadwise — the book highlight recall tool George uses daily to surface and connect past reading:What is TimeCrafting? Mike Vardy on managing your relationship with timeThis bonus episode didn't come with a polished set of talking points — it came with the kind of directness that only develops after you've been in enough rooms where the stakes were real and hesitation wasn't an option. If there's one thing I want you to take from this conversation, it's that the confidence worth having isn't something you put on. It's something that accumulates quietly, from doing the work no one is watching. Sit with that for a while.If this episode resonated, I'm exploring ideas like these more deeply in my upcoming book, Productiveness.

This episode is a special one. Sara Jensen, co-founder and Co-CEO of Hugh & Grace  invited me to join her for a live conversation in honor of National Infertility Awareness Week and the interview was so good, I knew I had to share it with all of you here on the Egg Whisperer Show. Sara has walked the deeply personal road of unexplained infertility for 14 years, ultimately building her family through the incredible gift of surrogacy. And, she and her husband Ben and channeled that journey (and what they learned) into a company dedicated to hormone-supportive, toxin-free wellness products.  Together, Sara and I unpack some of the fertility trends we both are seeing in 2026.  From understanding your fertility before you're trying to conceive, to the emotional marathon of IVF, to the role environmental toxins play in hormone health, and the topic of sperm maxing and egg maxing - we tackle many of the trending topics. And, we share what it really takes to prepare your body, protect your partnership, and make empowered choices on the path to parenthood. In this episode, we cover these fertility trends from 2026: Trimester Zero: what it means to truly prepare for pregnancy, why it matters for both partners, and how men can improve sperm quality through behavioral changes The TUSHY Method: my method for getting the foundational fertility workup done (tubes, uterus, sperm, hormones, and genetics) before surprises arise Egg maxing & sperm maxing: the supplements I actually recommend (CoQ10, NAD+), what to skip, and why "more is not better" when it comes to your supplement stack At-home fertility testing tools: how to use LH tests, the Proof Complete kit, and ovulation apps like Oura accurately, and the timing mistakes that cause couples to miss their window The emotional toll of fertility treatments: how to build your fertility support team early, manage IVF-related stress, and protect your relationship throughout the process Environmental toxins and hormone health: how everyday skincare and household products can impact your hormones, and what Sara learned firsthand after 6 rounds of IVF The fertility trends no one is talking about: why biology hasn't changed even as more women over 40 are having babies, and what declining birth rates mean for all of us Resources: Hugh & Grace (hormone-supportive, toxin-free wellness products) The Egg Whisperer Show (Dr. Aimee's podcast) on Spotify Yo Sperm Test (at-home semen analysis) Fellow sperm testing kit Legacy male fertility testing  Proof Complete fertility hormone test The Hermosa Study (research on chemical exposure and teens): https://cerch.berkeley.edu/research-programs/hermosa-study Oura Ring (fertility & cycle tracking): ouraring.com
