In this conversation from Lenny's Podcast, Ben Horowitz joins Lenny to discuss the psychological muscle every founder needs, why hesitation can be fatal for CEOs, when it's time to replace a founder, and how to normalize failure while building confidence. They also explore the Databricks founding story, investing in Adam Neumann after WeWork, whether AI is in a bubble, where the real opportunities lie, and Ben's work with the Paid in Full Foundation supporting hip-hop pioneers.

He took Loudcloud public with just $2 million in revenue (dubbed “the IPO from hell”), sold it for $1.6 billion, and has backed companies from Facebook to Stripe to Airbnb to OpenAI to Databricks (now worth more than $100 billion). His management philosophy—forged through near-death experiences and refined through coaching hundreds of CEOs—contradicts most conventional startup wisdom.In our conversation, Ben shares:1. Why “founder mode” is half right and half dangerously wrong2. The story behind “Good Product Manager/Bad Product Manager” and why it went viral despite being written in anger3. Where the biggest AI startup opportunities remain4. Why you need to run toward fear, never away5. The one trait that predicts that a founder will fail as CEO6.

Listen now: Spotify, Apple and YouTubeThink a “portfolio career” makes family life chaotic? Ben argues the opposite.In this special episode of Supra Insider, Ben shares a more personal side of his journey in a conversation originally recorded on the Startup Dad podcast with Adam Fishman.From raising his daughter Gaia (with help from George, the family's golden retriever) to navigating solo parenting in New York without nearby family, Ben opens up about the joys and challenges of fatherhood. He reflects on why a portfolio career actually feels more stable than a full-time job, how intentional routines have transformed his days, and the lessons learned from mistakes, community, and the chaos of parenting.If you're a parent balancing an ambitious career, curious about the realities of raising kids in a big city, or simply want to hear a more personal side of Ben outside of product leadership, this episode offers candid stories, practical takeaways, and a heartfelt look at family life.All episodes of the podcast are also available on Spotify, Apple and YouTube.New to the pod?

Howie Liu is the co-founder and CEO of Airtable, the no-code platform valued at around $12 billion. After a viral tweet declared “Airtable is dead” based on incorrect data, Howie led a radical transformation: reorganizing the entire company around AI, becoming an “IC CEO” who codes daily, and achieving over $100 million in free cash flow.What you'll learn:1. The “fast thinking” vs. “slow thinking” team structure that lets Airtable ship AI features weekly (inspired by Daniel Kahneman)2. Why Howie uses AI hourly (not daily) and is Airtable's #1 inference-cost user globally3. Why CEOs must become ICs again in the AI era (and how to restructure your calendar to make it possible)4. Why “playing” with AI tools should be mandatory—Howie tells employees to cancel all meetings for a week to experiment5. The specific skills product managers, engineers, and designers need to develop to succeed in the AI era6.

What really makes us happy? In this episode, we draw from Yale professor Dr. Laurie Santos' research — featured on the Rich Roll Podcast — to uncover four surprising truths about happiness: the arrival fallacy, the bronze medal effect, how comfort can backfire, and why giving beats self-focus. What's remarkable is how these modern insights echo wisdom preserved in the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam. The yogic texts long ago revealed that happiness and distress both come to us inevitably, and that wise souls redirect their energy toward devotion. In bhakti, this opens the door to a transcendental joy far beyond worldly ups and downs — most beautifully seen in the eternal love between Krishna and the residents of Vrindavan.

Welcome back to the Crushing It In Construction podcast!After a chaotic few weeks of scheduling nightmares (thanks, end-of-financial-year madness), we're finally back with a banger of an episode. I sat down with Kyra Naylor - CEO of Naylor Commercial Interiors and third-generation leader of her family's Dallas-based architectural finishes biz.Kyra's story isn't your typical "grew up in the trades" tale. She was the kid in cowboy boots translating for supers on job sites, detoured through law school, then got yanked back into construction when COVID hit. Now? She's running the show with a mix of old-school grit and next-gen strategy like slashing 500 weekly bid requests to focus on clients who actually pay.We cover Texas's boom-or-bust construction market, why election years bring projects to a standstill, and when "being nice" at work goes too far. Plus: the raw truth about inheriting a family business - from tough firings to construction-style networking.Let's get started!Connect with Kyra Nylor:LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/kyra-naylorWebsite:https://naylorcommercial.com/Connect with Jordan Skinner:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jordanaskinner/Website: https://moonshotmedia.com.au/Ever wonder if you're being paid what you're worth? Or if you're paying your team fairly? Martin from Built & Byron's recruitment surveys 500+ actually employed construction pros (not just job-seekers) to reveal real Melbourne salary benchmarks.

“Self-fulfilling prophecies are real things. It's not going to happen for the person who says it's not going to happen. But if you convince yourself that you're going to make this happen, you'll achieve whatever it is. Your brain will look for ways to prove you right.” —Amy Chambers The difference between who you are and who you want to be begins with a single moment of radical self-belief. And that moment often arrives not when you feel strongest, but when you're most vulnerable—when you're willing to admit you don't have all the answers and are ready to embrace the discomfort of growth. Amy Chambers is a transformational coach, author, and ultra-marathon runner who pivoted from a 21-year career in financial services to walk the path of personal development. With two bestselling books on leadership and personal growth, she's dedicated her life to helping individuals break through mental barriers and create extraordinary lives.Tune in as Heather and Amy explore how embracing discomfort, challenging limiting beliefs, and taking radical responsibility can transform your career, relationships, and inner landscape, as well as the power of personal accountability, leadership strategies, and the transformative journey of self-discovery. Connect with Heather: WebsiteFacebook InstagramLinkedInEpisode Highlights:01:06 From Finance to Coaching05:51 Leadership Decoded: 7 Virtues of Exceptional Leaders 08:37 Leadership Beyond Titles14:10 The Ownership Principle19:01 Rock Bottom Transformation25:47 Authoring Change33:42 The Ultimate Life Hack: Self-BeliefResources:Books

In this episode, we talk to David Pinsof about the surprising ways people form their beliefs and build alliances. Drawing on his survey with Cards Against Humanity, he shares how people often hold contradictory views and what this reveals about group coordination. We also dive into his game-theoretic model of coalition-building, explore how humor functions as a coordination tool, and discuss the deeper logic behind seemingly irrational behavior.   David Pinsof is a behavioral scientist whose work combines evolutionary psychology and game theory, to understand belief formation and social dynamics. He is also one of the co-creators of "Cards against Humanity", the author of the blog Everything Is Bullshit and recently launched the podcast - Evolutionary Psychology (The Podcast) - in which he explores cutting-edge work in the evolutionary behavioral sciences. You can find the paper „Strange Bedfellows" David mentioned in the episode here.

Less Is More PhilosophyFocus on going deeper with fewer elements rather than adding more sounds - spend time crafting the tonal characteristics and textures of individual elements.2. Practice Over TheoryThere are no shortcuts to mastery. You can watch thousands of tutorials, but real learning only comes through repeated hands-on practice and experimentation.3. Build for Yourself FirstWhether creating music or business tools, start with solving your own problems and needs - authenticity and personal connection will naturally resonate with others.

As creators, we aren't the best judge of their own work... our time, energy, and emotional investment often cloud our objectivity. Let's continually practice creating with a light touch……detaching from expectations of outcome. Just like the vital rhythms of the body and nature, our business needs our reliable rhythms of creation... This is a public episode.

Rome wasn't built in a day – and neither was any (decent) business.It was built over thousands of tiny micro-decisions, leading to compounding effects that eventually became BIG. Gorgeous buildings, architecture that has inspired masses, and historical significance spanning centuries.Likewise, when you're establishing a business, you can't just completely quit your job and start turning a profit if you haven't already laid the groundwork. You have to consciously choose to show up every day and make those little movements that, over time, will set you up to take those big leaps of faith.In this episode of “The Shinah Show”, I'm breaking down the real path to becoming a professional calligrapher – and I can assure you, it's not glamorous, it's not linear, and it's not BIG and dramatic. I'm sharing with you:The surprising link between babies and businesses

Burnout is more than exhaustion—it's often a sign that we're clinging to outdated roles, habits, or expectations. Scott Anderson, a licensed mental health therapist and founder of Double Dare, views burnout as a form of “self-inflicted suffering” that can serve as a wake-up call for personal transformation. His work redefines success, urging individuals to listen to their internal signals rather than push harder through stress. Through tools like the Genius Zone framework and the R&R Technique, Scott helps high achievers realign with what truly matters. He guides clients in identifying the few tasks that create the greatest impact, while also addressing emotional blocks like perfectionism, guilt, and resentment. By combining strategic delegation with emotional clarity—especially the power of self-forgiveness—Scott enables people to reduce overwhelm and reconnect with meaning in their work and life. For anyone feeling burnt out, disengaged, or overwhelmed, Scott's book You're Not Toast offers a powerful, practical roadmap to recovery. It's designed for entrepreneurs, leaders, and professionals ready to reclaim control and restore clarity. Visit his website to learn more and access his proven burnout recovery resources.

In this powerful episode of The Why Intervention Podcast, host Christopher Doyle sits down with Aidan Morgan, who shares his harrowing journey from childhood experimentation to full-blown addiction and ultimately to recovery. Guest's Info Aidan Morgan is a remarkable example of transformation and resilience. After battling addiction from age 12, Aidan has now maintained sobriety for six years, completely rebuilding his life in the process. A native New Yorker with deep roots in his community, Aidan's journey from addiction to recovery showcases the power of human connection and the possibility of change even in the darkest circumstances. Now 28, Aidan has transformed from someone who couldn't be relied upon to the family member everyone calls first when they need help. His story provides both hope and practical insights for families struggling with a loved one's addiction. With honesty, humility, and occasional humor, Aidan shares his personal experiences not as an expert but as someone who's lived through the struggle and found his way to the other side. His story stands as powerful evidence that recovery is possible and that intervention can save lives. Highlights Why the "wait until they hit bottom" approach is DANGEROUS and potentially DEADLY in today's world where "you could hit a casket before you hit bottom" The SHOCKING truth about what happened when Aidan nearly died in a car accident while high - and why it STILL wasn't enough to make him stop The DEVASTATING "9-HOUR DECISION" phenomenon that explains why addicts can't stop using even when they desperately want to and have days of abstinence Why your addicted loved one already has ENOUGH PAIN to change - they just need the right connection and opportunity NOW How Aidan's father's surprising SILENCE became the catalyst that finally broke through when nothing else would The COUNTERINTUITIVE reason why taking away a teen's activities as punishment for substance use actually ACCELERATES their addiction The BIZARRE encounter with "Franklin" that kept Aidan from walking out of detox over a veggie burger Why an addict telling you "I promise I'll stop" and ACTUALLY MEANING IT still isn't enough to overcome addiction The EMOTIONAL MOMENT when a father's three simple words - "It's over" - finally gave his son permission to surrender The PROFOUND TRUTH that most recovered addicts didn't seek help on their own - and what this means for your intervention strategy How Aidan went from being "the last person anyone would call" to handle a problem to becoming the family's MOST RELIABLE member If you're struggling with a loved one's addiction, this episode provides both the inspiration and practical framework for taking action before it's too late.

Every time I promised myself I'd quit bingeing, my first instinct was to trade carrot cake for carrot sticks and run so hard I'd practically slide off the treadmill. But no matter how dedicated I was to so-called “clean eating” and marathon gym sessions, the binges always came back.  Here's what I missed back then: There are key things you can do—things that have nothing to do with counting carbs or surviving bootcamp—things that can markedly shift bingeing. Counterintuitive as this is, focusing away from restricting and working out often yields a desire to eat and move in ways that serve us—body, mind, and soul.  In all, I'll been talking about 10 important pieces to understand, and this episode focuses on understanding how your bingeing makes sense. YES, you read that right! Listen in to hear why it makes sense and why it's so powerful to understand that it does.  Get full show notes and more information here: https://www.holdingthespace.co/80.  If you're ready to invest in one-on-one support to help heal binge eating, go to https://holdingthespace.as.me/free30 and get on my calendar for a complementary consult today. I pinky-swear—NO icky salesy vibes, just compassion and understanding. 

Want to unlock a life of true blessing? What if I told you the key might surprise you?  In today's episode, I'm getting real about something that's transformed my life: biblical generosity. I know, talking about money can feel awkward, but I truly believe this message is vital. I want to share with you a conversation I had with my twin sister, Jasmine, that changed my perspective on giving. I'll also dive into what scripture says about generosity and how it's not just about finances, but about a heart surrendered to God. I've seen firsthand how obedience in this area leads to incredible blessings, and I want to share that with you. In this episode, I'm exploring: What the Bible really says about tithing (10% giving) Understanding offerings and generosity that go beyond the tithe The concept of sowing seeds with faith and expectation Sacrificial giving—what it means to give "above and beyond" Why the heart behind your giving matters most How I've experienced blessings through obedience and generosity in my own life I hope this episode encourages you to live generously and to seek those real, deep blessings that come from God. Remember, you're loved, you're valued, and you're doing amazing! Now go make some tacos and be a blessing to someone today!  Have questions or want to share a photo of your tacos, tag me @biancajuarezofficial.

Generosity is a key principle in living a blessed life. Tithing is considered the baseline of generosity. Understanding the concept of sowing and reaping is crucial. Generosity should come from a willing heart. Above and beyond giving demonstrates deep commitment. It's important to give with the right intentions. Scripture encourages us to give generously. The act of giving reflects our relationship with God. Living generously can lead to spiritual and material blessings. ⋇ Convoy of Hope - Empowering Women and Girls Together Donate here https://convoyofhope.org/bianca/  ⋇ Bianca's new book Grit Don't Quit: Developing Resilience And Faith When Giving Up Isn't An Option. https://amzn.to/3MO74OC  ⋇ The Grit Don't Quit Bible Study is now available. https://www.biancaolthoff.com/gdq  ⋇ So grateful to our sponsors!
