Today, they're achieving that vision at scale by empowering artisans in developing economies to sell their handmade goods directly to consumers. Since its launch over 20 years ago, NOVICA has sent over $142 million to more than 10,000 global artists.“We wanted to figure out a better way [for artisans] to access the market,” Roberto explained. “We built a system around being close to the artists through these Artisan Empowerment Hubs.”These hubs—located in countries like Bali, Brazil, Peru, and Guatemala—allow artisans to set their own prices, access 0% interest microcredit, and retain control over their creations. The model also preserves cultural heritage by sustaining endangered art forms while fostering economic independence for artisans, many of whom are women supporting families in their communities.Roberto's personal connection to this mission is rooted in his family history. “My grandmother on my Peruvian side was an artisan,” he shared, revealing his understanding of the challenges talented creators face. Artists are often geographically distant from buyers and hampered by middlemen, leading to slim profits despite their valuable craftsmanship. NOVICA addressed this gap by restructuring supply chains and creating digital tools to remove barriers for artisans.Now, NOVICA is raising capital for its next phase of growth by broadening investor participation through a StartEngine campaign. On the platform, anyone—not just accredited investors—can invest in NOVICA for as little as $300. Investors also gain perks like discounts or elevated customer status on NOVICA's website. “It's almost like democratizing on the investment side,” Roberto said, emphasizing how the crowdsourcing model aligns with the company's mission.Driven by their success, Roberto and his team recently launched Handmade.com, a complementary marketplace that leverages AI to help artisans manage their own product listings, allowing NOVICA to scale globally.“We're eyeing the $100 million mark,” Roberto shared. “With Handmade.com and other innovations, we're positioned to grow quickly while staying true to our mission.”By building solutions that uplift global artisans, NOVICA demonstrates how social entrepreneurship can make a lasting difference—preserving culture, creating livelihoods, and connecting communities.tl;dr:NOVICA empowers artisans globally, sending them $142 million via artist hubs in 10 countries.Roberto Milk's family connection inspired the creation of NOVICA to disrupt traditional supply chains.NOVICA is scaling through a StartEngine campaign, allowing anyone to invest for as little as $300.Handmade.com expands NOVICA's mission by using AI to help artisans self-manage product listings.Roberto credits “channeling empathy” as key to overcoming obstacles and driving social impact success.How to Develop Channeling Empathy As a SuperpowerWhen asked about his superpower, Roberto identified the ability to “channel empathy” as the key skill that drives his success. “The process of building a social impact company is really hard,” he explained. “Channeling empathy...has helped us push through and succeed because there was no plan B.”Empathy is at the heart of the NOVICA model. By deeply listening to artisans' struggles, needs, and dreams, Roberto and his team designed solutions that respect their craft, such as creating empowerment hubs that treat artists like “queens or kings.” These hubs provide not only financial tools like microcredit but also dignity, collaboration, and access to global markets, enabling artisans to thrive.One artisan, Leoncio Tinoco, an award-winning master weaver from Peru, struggled to make a living despite his expertise. NOVICA commissioned him to create a stunning tapestry depicting the iconic Afghan refugee girl from a National Geographic cover. The project brought Leoncio much-needed income and connected him with global recognition. The finished piece now resides at National Geographic's headquarters, symbolizing the power of empathy to change lives.Tips for Developing Empathy as a Strength:Listen Intentionally: Take extra time to fully understand others' words, emotions, and perspectives before responding.Practice Awareness: Be open to inspiration from conversations, meetings, or everyday experiences.Focus on Impact: Prioritize solutions that help others thrive while preserving dignity and culture.Build Relationships: Collaborate with individuals as partners in shared success, not just as contributors to your goals.By following Roberto's example and advice, anyone can make channeling empathy a skill. With practice and effort, this could become a superpower that enables greater impact 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 ProfileRoberto Milk (he/him):Co-founder & CEO, NOVICA & Handmade.comAbout NOVICA & Handmade.com: NOVICA is an established, mission-driven leader in the global artisan marketplace, with over $20M in revenue and global infrastructure already in place.

Led by Executive Director Suresh Sundarababu, the organization serves as a lifeline for mission-driven founders determined to tackle societal challenges. In today's episode, I spoke with Suresh about the innovative approach at Swan, including how they're reimagining the world of angel investing.“We equally care about impact and return on investment,” Suresh explained. “Any good value proposition can also be good for the world.” Swan Impact's model creates opportunities for even smaller investors, lowering thresholds to democratize angel investing. For accredited investors, the required minimum investment is just $5,000—shattering traditional barriers to entry that often lock out purpose-driven individuals.Swan's approach also welcomes younger members into the ecosystem, providing them with the time and mentorship opportunities to participate meaningfully even before fully entering the world of angel investing. “The associate group… allows for those who care about impact, especially the younger generation, to come in,” Suresh shared.The organization actively supports high-impact businesses across sectors like clean tech, life sciences, financial empowerment, and education. Among its many success stories are Skyven Technologies, a clean tech company maximizing the efficiency of industrial steam use, and Binary Bridge, which offers portable medical records solutions for underserved, remote areas in developing countries.But Suresh insists Swan's role extends far beyond writing checks. He explained, “Writing a check is the least of what we want to be known for… More important are the knowledge share, the bouncing board that founders don't usually have.” Swan's ability to provide strategic guidance ensures the businesses they fund are not just surviving but thriving.Under Suresh's leadership, Swan Impact Network is proving that purpose and profit can go hand in hand. By opening doors for diverse founders and democratizing angel investing, the organization exemplifies how capital can be a force for good in the hands of those strongly committed to creating a better world.If you're looking to support—or become—a founder driven by purpose, Swan Impact Network might just be your next step.tl;dr:The Swan Impact Network combines meaningful social impact with financial returns to support mission-driven founders.Accredited investors can start with $5,000 investments, giving everyday people better access to angel investing.Swan provides mentorship and guidance, ensuring founders grow their businesses with strategic support.Suresh's superpower for scaling initiatives combines vision, strategy, and action for maximum impact.The associate program educates young members and diversifies angel investing for new generations.How to Develop Scaling for Impact As a SuperpowerSuresh's superpower is scaling initiatives for impact by quickly forming strategies and building teams. “At the most fundamental level, I'm a thinking partner when it comes to scaling anything,” Suresh explained. He highlighted his natural ability to blend strategy, vision, and action to expand organizational and personal impact. Whether scaling a startup, a team, or even parenting his two young boys, Suresh uses this innate skill to amplify positive outcomes.Suresh shared an anecdote about his time working at National Instruments, where he played an essential role in helping the company grow from $125 million in revenue to $750 million during his tenure. Describing the keys to this success, he highlighted the belief in shared purpose and working toward impactful goals in collaboration with smart, like-minded individuals. The culture of trust and the commitment to scaling responsibly defined this success narrative.Tips for Developing the Superpower:Craft a Personal Purpose Statement: Write down your purpose to clarify your priorities and sustain focus.Identify Your Unique Strengths: Reflect or ask others for feedback to uncover your natural talents.Stay Aligned With Your Values: When your work or impact detours from your purpose, be quick to course correct.Combine Vision With Action: Set long-term goals (your flag) while identifying concrete next steps to maintain momentum.Collaborate With Like-Minded Individuals: Surround yourself with people who share your values for increased synergy and trust.By following Suresh's example and advice, you can make scaling for impact 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.

Democracy depends on finding common ground, yet politics have entered an era of what Director and Producer Dan Partland calls “extreme negative hyper-partisanship.” In a recent conversation, Dan discussed his upcoming documentary, UNFIT TOO, a sequel to his widely acclaimed film #UNFIT, which dissected the psychology of Donald Trump. This time, he seeks to look beyond Trump and Trumpism to examine how America can navigate out of this political and cultural divide.Dan explained the gravity of the situation, emphasizing how populism on both the right and left distorts democracy. “Populism is really about power...a ruthless majority,” Dan said. “Democracies can easily slip into that...what the study of psychology tells us is that these people are frequently...compelling...but it isn't necessarily good for the world.” Building on this analysis, the new documentary explores how polarization, populism, and societal divisions threaten democracy's core values of negotiation and representation.The concept behind UNFIT TOO takes the mission one step further: finding actionable strategies for individuals and communities to bridge the gaps between ideological divides. Dan sees this challenge reflected everywhere—from political discourse to fractured family dinners. He explained, “Every single family has been affected by this negative hyper-partisanship...What's the appropriate disposition towards that problem? How do you engage with people who you feel so different from?”As compelling as #UNFIT was in analyzing Donald Trump's leadership style, this sequel focuses on solutions. Dan noted that UNFIT TOO isn't just about diagnosing the current crisis but finding pathways to a more collaborative and functional democracy. The documentary aims to give audiences practical tools to discuss and address difficult, deep-rooted divides.Dan and his team are raising capital for UNFIT TOO through a regulated crowdfunding campaign on Wefunder. This approach reflects Dan's belief that business interests and philanthropy can align to create both cultural and social impact. Those interested in supporting the project can visit the campaign at s4g.biz/UNFIT.The success of #UNFIT, which became the top-selling documentary on Apple and a cultural phenomenon, is a testament to Dan's ability to tackle controversial and challenging topics in a meaningful way. UNFIT TOO promises to be equally impactful—a documentary that not only informs but also empowers Americans to reclaim the true spirit of democracy.tl;dr:Dan Partland's new documentary UNFIT TOO explores solutions to America's extreme polarization and populism.The film builds on the success of #UNFIT, examining Trump's psychology and its impact on politics.Dan describes populism as a key threat to democracy's representation, collaboration, and common-ground solutions.The sequel aims to provide tools for healing divides within families, communities, and broader political contexts.UNFIT TOO is raising funds via Wefunder, where business and philanthropy align for cultural impact.How to Develop Mission-Driven Leadership As a SuperpowerDan's superpower is his ability to unite people around a meaningful mission. Describing his work on documentaries like #UNFIT and now UNFIT TOO, Dan shared how engaging in mission-driven projects has fueled his work ethic and collaborations. “I really believe in... unifying people around a sense of mission,” Dan explained. For him, creating films that address real-world problems and inspire compassion in culture brings purpose to his work: “By aiming the lens at the real problems of real people, you engender more compassion.” Dan believes that great storytelling isn't just entertainment but a vehicle for social good, fostering collaboration and actionable impact.One project that exemplifies Dan's mission-driven approach was a documentary show embedded in a suburban high school, documenting students' trials and experiences. To align the production with the school's educational mission, Dan and his team created a filmmaking curriculum. This approach added value not only for the documentary but also for the students and community, demonstrating how mission-based work can serve diverse goals. Dan shared, “Creating this educational component...helped align with the project's objectives, amplifying the subjects' voices while advancing media literacy.”Tips for Developing This Superpower:Align Your Work with a Greater Purpose: Look for ways to connect your goals to real-world impact.Unify Teams Around Shared Missions: Create a sense of collective purpose for a project's success.Seek Collaborative Win-Wins: Ensure your work benefits stakeholders and participants in meaningful ways.Focus on Amplifying Social Good: Go beyond storytelling to highlight actionable change in your work.Cultivate Empathy Through Action: Use every opportunity to foster understanding, compassion, and collaboration.By following Dan's example and advice, you can make mission-driven leadership a skill. With practice and effort, you could develop this superpower to create impact and drive meaningful change 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.

Using regulatory innovations like the JOBS Act, Mark has developed strategies to make capital formation easier, faster, and more accessible. His work effectively democratizes Wall Street, opening doors for smaller businesses and leveling the playing field for individual investors.Mark explained how the traditional investment model excluded non-accredited investors from participating. “The rich were getting richer,” he said, “while everyday Americans who wanted to support businesses and be part of their growth were left out.” Regulations like Reg A+ under the JOBS Act have changed the game, allowing companies to crowdfund investments while offering liquidity through public markets. This enables “individual investors to get the same access the Wall Street elite always had.”Mark Elenowitz, CEO of Nant Global Finance, will be speaking at SuperCrowd26, featuring PurposeBuilt100™. His session, "What Actually Scales: What Survives and What Doesn't," will offer invaluable insights into building sustainable, scalable ventures. Don't miss this chance to learn from an industry innovator. Register now at https://supercrowd26.comNant Global Finance is leading the way by utilizing these updated frameworks to innovate the capital markets. In 2017, Mark spearheaded the first Reg A+ company to go public on the New York Stock Exchange. Since then, similar groundbreaking successes have followed, including the public offering of Newsmax, which raised capital from over 30,000 investors. These milestones highlight a future in which smaller businesses can access public markets without the overwhelming costs associated with traditional IPOs.Part of Mark's mission is to support entrepreneurs who start their journeys with limited capital and resources. Through regulated investment crowdfunding campaigns, Nant Global Finance provides a way for smaller businesses to generate significant capital in ways that mirror traditional IPOs. As Mark noted, “Customers can become shareholders, and shareholders can become customers—it's self-fulfilling.”Mark's approach to capital markets is clear: combine technology and progressive regulations to create wealth-sharing opportunities on an unprecedented scale. Whether you're a business owner with a bold vision or an investor eager to support innovative ideas, this model offers a tangible path to meaningful impact.By creating these opportunities and reconnecting public markets with smaller enterprises, Mark is building a Wall Street that serves both investors and entrepreneurs alike.tl;dr:Mark Elenowitz shares how new laws under the JOBS Act are democratizing early-stage business investments.Nant Global Finance creates new opportunities for small entrepreneurs to raise capital through Reg A+ IPOs.Mark highlights his pioneering efforts, including the first Reg A+ listing on the New York Stock Exchange.Through resilience and creativity, he overcame obstacles to design innovative solutions for emerging markets.Mark's inspiring determination reminds entrepreneurs to embrace persistence as a key to long-term success.How to Develop Unyielding Determination As a SuperpowerMark's superpower is his refusal to give up, no matter the obstacles. He shared, “I've never been one to accept what everyone else is doing without trying to find an alternative path.” Mark explained how this perseverance has fueled his career, allowing him to see possibilities others overlooked. By tackling challenges like modernizing Wall Street and introducing blockchain-based securities, Mark leverages his unrelenting drive to empower others. “I've been an entrepreneur all my life…I earned everything I had,” he said, highlighting how resilience has shaped his approach to business and life.One of Mark's defining moments came during the 2010 collapse of the Chinese cross-border M&A market. Overnight, he faced the stark reality of managing a firm of over 70 employees with no revenue. Standing at a crossroads, Mark embraced the newly emerging JOBS Act as an opportunity to build something transformative. This pivotal decision not only saved his business but laid the foundation for his industry-changing work in crowdfunding and democratizing capital markets.Tips for Developing Determination:Learn from mistakes and consistently use them as stepping stones for growth.Identify risk as an opportunity—take calculated risks to achieve meaningful goals.Challenge conventional paths and always seek creative, alternative solutions.Embrace resilience by committing to your vision, even in the face of setbacks.Focus on persistence by breaking down overwhelming challenges into manageable tasks.By following Mark's example and advice, you can make unyielding determination 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.

Howell is a rare combination of humanitarian and financier, blending his deep expertise in capital market formation with a passion for helping people. In today's episode, Patrick revealed that his approach to finance begins and ends with humanity, challenging us all to see the human stories that underpin every decision.Patrick credits much of his perspective to his upbringing, pointing out how his parents influenced his values. “My father always invited me to elevate myself to my highest potential. My mother taught me to do good inside the world,” Patrick shared. These foundational values have shaped an extraordinary career infused with purpose.At Global Market Intelligence & Media, where he serves as CEO, Patrick's vision is rooted in building connections that create “win-win-win-win” outcomes. He explained, “I think there's no reason why we can't do business in such a way where it enhances everybody—the person doing the business, the person receiving the business, and all the others involved.” This commitment to equitable, human-centered solutions is the hallmark of his work.Patrick also hosts a podcast called Global I Am, which highlights inspiring stories and groundbreaking ideas across culture, finance, and innovation. Through his podcast, he amplifies voices from diverse backgrounds while demonstrating the ways business and humanity can intersect to create meaningful change.In addition, Patrick is preparing to release his highly anticipated memoir, Getting Deals Done, in August. The book promises to offer a behind-the-scenes look at his remarkable journey, blending personal stories with insights into capital market formation and strategies for creating impactful connections. “It's my story in many ways, but also the story of several mentors,” Patrick said, offering listeners a glimpse of what's to come.Patrick's belief in the transformative potential of finance has deep roots. Drawing on examples like his efforts to diversify funding and catalyze financial empowerment, Patrick reminded listeners that true impact is driven by relationships and shared vision. “It always comes back to recognizing what's special about the people with whom we engage on a day-to-day basis,” he emphasized, illustrating how purpose and profit can indeed coexist.This conversation inspired me to reframe finance as a tool for collective good. Patrick masterfully shows us how the financial world can serve not only economies but also humanity, often bridging cultural and economic gaps to create opportunities that matter.With leaders like Patrick paving the way, we're reminded that our superpowers—whether insight, vision, or empathy—can be real changemakers in every facet of our lives.tl;dr:Patrick Howell shares how his upbringing shaped his humanitarian approach to finance and culture.Getting Deals Done, Howell's upcoming memoir, offers insights into impact-driven leadership and capital markets.Howell uses his Global I Am podcast to amplify diverse voices and foster meaningful global connections.Global Market Intelligence & Media builds solutions for equitable and transformative opportunities in underserved communities.Howell's visionary connection building inspires a future where humanity and business thrive together.How to Develop Visionary Connection Building As a SuperpowerPatrick's superpower is his rare ability to envision opportunities that create shared value through connection and collaboration. As he put it, “Networking is a very powerful ability, but I also love business development in the context of that networking.” What makes his approach remarkable is his focus on fostering relationships grounded in humanity. Patrick explained, “I think there's no reason why we can't do business in such a way where it enhances everybody...a win-win-win-win situation.” This people-first strategy shapes the way he builds bridges across industries and continents.Patrick demonstrated his superpower while working alongside his team at Global Market Intelligence & Media to reverse-engineer the transatlantic slave trade into a “transatlantic peace and prosperity trade.” Together, his team succeeded in securing a major agricultural grant to help create economic and technological opportunities across the Caribbean, Africa, and beyond. The collaborative process not only strengthened his team's operations but also fostered connections that highlighted the mutually beneficial impact of their visionary work.Tips for Developing This Superpower:Build relationships rooted in shared values instead of focusing only on short-term goals.Surround yourself with diverse individuals who inspire and challenge you to think bigger.Envision solutions where everyone benefits, including people, communities, and organizations.Maintain a daily spiritual practice for grounding and inspiration.Act with confidence and remain focused, even when projects feel overwhelming.By following Patrick's example and advice, you can make visionary connection building 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.

Now that football season is over, they're getting into the weird stuff: Darren Rovell going one-on-one with Kristaps Porzingas, wrestling with the idea that Biden can be president but maybe not drive, and why can't companies just create a good product and make money that way.
