This episode was originally released on September 15, 2023.A while back, Ross Gay was trying to write a book that was going to make him an expert. It was a book that would, as he put it, “get him on the shows.” It wasn't very fun. And then he read David Shields' How Literature Saved My Life, where Shields wonders about himself and literature through short, playful entries. Reading that book gave Ross permission “to be writing stuff that felt fascinating not only because it was interesting subject matter, but because it was the unfolding understanding of who I might be” (and, by extension, who any of us might be.This week on Inner States, Ross Gay and I talk about his latest book, The Book of (More) Delights – it drops on Tuesday! – about his relationship to that most basic unit of writing – the sentence – about digression, and how part of being an adult is accepting that people don't always understand why they do things. Ourselves included.Inner States is produced and edited by me, Alex Chambers, with support from Eoban Binder, Jillian Blackburn, Mark Chilla, Avi Forrest, LuAnn Johnson, Sam Schemenauer, Payton Whaley, and Kayte Young.

A while back, Ross Gay was trying to write a book that was going to make him an expert. It was a book that would, as he put it, “get him on the shows.” It wasn't very fun. And then he read David Shields' How Literature Saved My Life, where Shields wonders about himself and literature through short, playful entries. Reading that book gave Ross permission “to be writing stuff that felt fascinating not only because it was interesting subject matter, but because it was the unfolding understanding of who I might be” (and, by extension, who any of us might be. This week on Inner States, Ross Gay and I talk about his latest book, The Book of (More) Delights – it drops on Tuesday! – about his relationship to that most basic unit of writing – the sentence – about digression, and how part of being an adult is accepting that people don't always understand why they do things. Ourselves included. Inner States is produced and edited by me, Alex Chambers, with support from Violet Baron, Eoban Binder, Jillian Blackburn, Mark Chilla, Avi Forrest, LuAnn Johnson, Sam Schemenauer, Jay Upshaw, Payton Whaley, and Kayte Young.

Why are historical foodstuffs important? And what might they have to offer to us living now about some of the biggest issues we're facing? Glenn Roberts of Anson Mills and AM Research in Columbia, SC is on a journey to address these questions through interacting with the foods themselves: finding the seed, growing them out, and working with his team and a host of others around the world to test and apply the results in a climates that are rapidly changing. I spoke with Glenn a few years ago, along with Dr. David Shields, about the Carolina Gold Rice Foundation, and many of you will associate Glenn with that iconic Southern grain. But he's now applying creative thinking to the companion plants and the ecosystems of the rice, and it's leading him to new questions about salt tolerance, growing cycles, and even which parts of the plant we harvest for food. Now, I'm intellectually flying by the seat of my pants in this conversation, but there's lots of good humor amid the scientific ideas, and Glenn provides us hope for the future of food by looking to the past.

Eighty-two percent of consumers consider community involvement when deciding where to spend their money for a product or service. Having an engagement plan offers many benefits for an organization, including increased interactions between colleagues, networking with other businesses, and an overall aura of positivity when contributing to the community or a specific cause. On this episode of Like It's Your Job, hosts David Shields, Principal at Shields Legal Group, and Matt Shields, CIO at Shields Capital Group, talked with Monica Smith, Chief Giving and Community Impact officer for Communities Foundation of Texas, and JJ Ponce, Director, Communities Foundation of Texas. Communities Foundation of Texas works side by side with caring donors, committed nonprofits, philanthropy-focused businesses, and civic leaders to help build communities that thrive for all. The group discussed how corporate citizenship can be empowering for organizations and some advice on how an organization can get started. “As a community foundation, we have two different sides of our work," Smith said of CFT, who works with donors, families, and businesses to engage them in meaningful philanthropy. Through the years, CFT has developed so many great relationships with all different types of organizations that are trying to serve a community. When you engage with CFT for business, you have the ability to pick your way of helping people. "The key takeaway is you just have to get started," Smith said. "So many complex issues are facing North Texas and really the world right now, but the lesson is obviously if we all band together and work together, we can accomplish so much more than any of us can do on our own."

On this episode of Like It's Your Job, hosts David Shields, Principal at Shields Legal Group, and Matt Shields, CIO at Shields Capital Group, talked with Rayne Steinberg, CEO at Arca, an institutional-grade financial services firm that builds products utilizing and investing in digital assets. They dug into Steinberg's career and business at Arca. They also discuss digital assets investing and innovation, as well as including tokens on your capital stack Arca focuses on pensions, endowments, and high net worth individuals. Their thesis was that channel, and institutional allocators were underserved when it came to digital assets, according to Steinberg, who leads the company's overall direction and is responsible for securities structuring and risk management. "They have higher risk thresholds, fiduciary duty, they're used to dealing with established brands, there's tremendous employment risk and reputation risk for them to allocate in this space,” explained Steinberg in regards to Arca's thesis. Steinberg co-founded the asset management company, WisdomTree before joining Arca. He elaborated that this is amplified with digital assets, so this was an underserved area, and Arca was going to create a "top-notch" firm in order to address this gap. They have two sides of the business, active management practice and Arca labs, "which is our innovation arm creating better asset management products that are energized by blockchain." This leads to more liquidity and transferability with all the promises of blockchain but applied to asset management. Listen to hear more about Steinberg's insights on including tokens on your capital stack.

Transitioning a business successfully is an inherently challenging process – but it can be made even more difficult when you throw a dash of family in the mix. That's the topic for this episode of Like It's Your Job, a podcast by The Shields Group. Hosts Matt and David Shields invited Eric Beichler, Managing Principal, Mohr Partners, to the show to discuss the challenges surrounding the transfer of a family-owned business. Beichler has firsthand experience with these situations, as he recently took part in the transition of Mohr Partners, which was previously owned by Bob Mohr. The company went through the management buyout process, giving the hosts and Beichler a chance to explore what makes those specific cases unique. The trio also dove into how companies can rebrand and pivot in a way that both ensures a clean transition to the new owners' vision and mission, yet also ensures stability. “When we went through the management buyout, we started to run the company a little differently than when we were running it, truly, as a family-owned business,” Beichler said. “There are benefits of both, but, when you transition like that, I had to make some alterations on, ‘Who are my new partners? Who are my new shareholders?' “It's that collaboration that's really important.”

For their seventh episode of Like It's Your Job, Matt and David Shields brought on two innovators in the debt capital delivery world: Joe Beard, CEO, and Joel Radtke, President & COO, of CollateralEdge.CollateralEdge is an innovative fintech platform that provides community and regional banks with a flexible, automated risk management solution to strengthen the credit profile on individual corporate loans. In addition, Beard and Radtke shared their backgrounds, experiences, insights and philosophies on managing and co-founding a business. While David Shields pointed out most lawyers see more challenges than positives to a 50-50 business partnership, Beard and Radtke are proving the exception to the rule. So, why did they choose to form a partnership rather than start separate businesses? “This is how I look at it,” Radtke said. “If the business is a lemonade stand, you should probably do it yourself because of the fun, the uniqueness, the little decisions you make; you want control of that. When you set your sights on building a great company, in a big market, with a difficult problem, you need to multiply the number of ideas. You need to make sure all of the priorities and expirations that need to happen to address this don't get short shrift just because you've reached your mental limits or you're exhausted at the end of the day.” For Beard, he recognized that he could have an even more significant impact on the world with the right business partner by his side with all his talents and abilities.“Having a true peer in terms of what you bring to the table is critical,” Beard said. Beard sees it as a “two heads are better than one” situation with the complex nature of business.

Bill Cawley, Chairman and CEO, Cawley Partners is passionate about mentorship and joined hosts David Shields, Partner, Shields Legal Group and Matthew Shields, Principal, Shield Capital Group for an insightful and genuine discussion of how these relationships bring benefits and value to both the mentor and the mentee. The core of mentorship is a mix of personal and professional relationships. Cawley's experience in business, drug and alcohol issues, and faith-based mentoring gives him valuable insight into how these relationships work. It begins with mutual respect and a genuine connection where the mentee sees value in the relationship and isn't just looking for benefits. “Sometimes, you have to tell someone things they don't want to hear, but that they need to hear – having enough credibility in the relationship so that they'll listen,” Cawley said. Productive mentoring is based on trust and depends on both people being open and authentic. “I think the more genuine and open a person is about the struggles they've had in their personal life, the more opportunity, in my opinion, God brings to us to mentor people or to be a change agent for someone who's struggling,” Cawley said. In business mentoring, it's important that mentees are looking to grow and can see the value in learning from a more experienced person in the industry. These relationships can be formalized or evolve naturally within a business where younger people can benefit from the wisdom of those who are farther along in their careers. Cawley's empathy, insight and passion for mentoring and fostering business relationships is a valuable resource for both mentors and mentees looking to transfer knowledge and wisdom. These relationships are integral to the strength of any industry where mentorship leads to more highly qualified people.
