3319: Inside Innventure: Pivoting Big Ideas Toward Real-World Value

When did you last pause to consider what it takes to turn daring ideas from a lab into reality?  In this episode of Tech Talks Daily, I spend time with Mike Otworth, Executive Chairman of Innventure, whose career reveals what happens when breakthrough technology leaves the safety of research and collides with real-world demands. Mike's view offers an honest look at what changes when you match influential inventions with a team that moves quickly and welcomes a little discomfort. We begin with Mike's unexpected transition from working on Capitol Hill to joining a group of brilliant scientists in Florida. That twist of fate shaped his life's direction and planted the seed for what later became Innventure. He explains how they tackle a problem that many overlook: big companies often create advanced solutions but lack the speed or drive to launch them effectively. His answer was to build an organization that runs on agility, quick learning, and a firm belief that course corrections are normal, not failures. One idea that sticks is what Mike calls "adaptive strategic positioning." In plain English, it means leaders must remain flexible and innovative enough to adjust their direction as soon as reality reveals something new. For founders juggling investors and product timelines, this can feel uncomfortable, yet it remains a necessary task. He also shares why he looks for "athletes" rather than box-ticking hires.  For Mike, mindset beats a perfect CV every time. He seeks individuals who bring determination, resilience, and an appetite for new challenges, regardless of their starting point. We also explore how team culture can't be built with beanbags and table football alone. Real innovation teams keep an eye on the big goal and value shared wins more than individual credit.  Mike also discusses giving every team member a stake in the outcome, ensuring everyone rows in the same direction. He gives a heartfelt nod to Dr. John Scott, a mentor whose sharp mind and honest opinions shaped his knack for spotting which tech has a chance in the market. This episode is more than another story of startup life. It's a clear window into how leadership must evolve as a company grows from a scrappy experiment to a trusted player. Mike's reflections on when to step back and let new leaders steer add a layer of honesty that many founders rarely share. If you enjoy hearing how a few bold decisions can ripple through entire industries, this chat offers plenty to chew on. Expect thoughtful lessons about courage, flexibility, and what it takes to build a company where every person is trusted to run with an idea and find a way forward. For anyone curious about early-stage success beyond the headlines, settle in and hear how Mike and Innventure prove that speed, trust, and the right people still matter most.

Interview with Gregory Martyr, Executive Chairman of Capital Metals PLCOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/capital-metals-lsecmet-unlocking-value-in-high-grade-sri-lankan-mineral-sands-6384Recording date: 16th June 2025Capital Metals (LSE:CMET) has secured a transformative partnership for its Taprobane mineral sands project in Sri Lanka, marking a significant milestone in the company's path to production. The AIM-listed developer announced a 14% investment from Ambeon Capital, a Sri Lankan investment group that brings crucial local expertise and government connections to the high-grade deposit on the country's east coast.The Taprobane project distinguishes itself through exceptional resource quality, featuring 17% grade mineral sands among the world's highest concentrations. Recent aircore drilling has revealed even greater potential, with visual inspections indicating grades exceeding 60% in some areas at depths previously inaccessible through conventional hand auger methods. Executive Chairman Gregory Martyr emphasized the project's economics, noting mining costs of $20 per ton against revenue of $40 per ton, delivering a compelling 100% markup.The strategic value of the Ambeon partnership extends beyond capital injection. Founded by Australian-educated principals combining local market knowledge with international business experience, Ambeon provides direct access to Sri Lankan regulatory channels through its chairman's position on the Board of Investment. This connection proves critical as Capital Metals navigates government requirements for initial raw concentrate exports followed by mandatory value-added processing within two years.Capital Metals plans to commence operations with a $20.9 million concentrate facility utilizing 48 gravity spirals, targeting 125,000 tons of annual production. The company has structured a comprehensive $20 million funding strategy through a Sri Lankan exchange listing, with Ambeon contributing $10 million in equity and arranging $10 million in corporate debt through its banking relationships.The project benefits from established, low-risk processing technology requiring no blasting or chemicals, while the shallow 1.6-meter average depth minimizes operational complexity. With significant drilling inventory yet to be incorporated into resource calculations, the current 10-year mine life could potentially double, supporting the $155 million base case net present value and positioning Capital Metals advantageously in the mineral sands sector.View Capital Metals' company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/capital-metalsSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Interview with Arturo Préstamo Elizondo, Executive Chairman & CEO of Santacruz Silver Mining Ltd.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/santacruz-silver-tsxvscz-strengthened-financial-position-deleveraged-and-developing-6319Recording date: 16th June 2025Santacruz Silver Mining (TSXV:SCZ) has reported exceptional Q1 2025 financial results, demonstrating the success of its operational turnaround strategy. The multi-metal producer generated revenues north of $70 million with EBITDA of $27 million, representing a dramatic gross profit increase of nearly 7,000% year-over-year.Executive Chairman Arturo Préstamo Elizondo attributed the strong performance to multiple factors, including favorable metal prices, strategic investments in mining operations, and beneficial currency movements in Bolivia. "Metal prices is helping us indeed, and also we have a few things that contribute to our gross margins. One has been the result of previous year's investments into our mines which have improved our margins," Préstamo explained.The company has made significant progress reducing its debt obligations, paying down $17.5 million of its Glencore consideration. With $22.5 million remaining to be paid in three monthly installments of $7.5 million each, the final payment is scheduled for late October 2025. The company maintains a strong treasury position with over $60 million in cash reserves.Strategic capital investments have focused on the Mexican Zimapán mine, particularly the development of Level 960, which management considers "the future of this mine." The company has acquired over 15 pieces of underground equipment over the past 18 months, with Level 960 now contributing 40,000 tons monthly out of the mine's total 75,000 tons per month throughput.While these investments temporarily elevated all-in sustained cash costs to $34.32 per silver equivalent ounce in Q1, management expects costs to normalize to $22-23 per ounce by Q4 2025 as operations transition from development ore to more efficient stope mining.The company maintains its commitment to community investment, allocating approximately $4 million annually to development programs while focusing on operational excellence rather than acquisitions for 2025.View Santacruz Silver's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/santacruz-silver-miningSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Interview withAlex Black, Executive Chairman of Rio2 Ltd.Frederick H. Earnest, President & CEO of Vista GoldRecording date: 13th June 2025Two prominent gold development companies are pioneering a new approach to mine development, scaling down their flagship projects to achieve self-funded construction rather than waiting for major mining company buyouts despite gold prices reaching historic highs above $3,200 per ounce.Rio2 Limited and Vista Gold Corp have both restructured their development strategies, prioritizing buildable projects over large-scale operations requiring external financing. Rio2's Fenix Gold project in Chile has been redesigned for initial production of 100,000 ounces annually from a 20,000 tons-per-day operation, while Vista Gold's Mount Todd project in Australia targets 150-200,000 ounces annually from 15,000 tons per day – a significant reduction from previously contemplated 50,000 tons-per-day operations.The strategic shift reflects a fundamental change in market dynamics. Major mining companies are showing minimal interest in acquiring development-stage projects, preferring to purchase producing assets despite having record cash levels. "Gone are the days where you build a story up and tell everybody that you're going to flip the company and sell it to somebody," explained Rio2 CEO Alex Black. "The chances of somebody coming along and buying you out is very slim in this market."Both companies have simplified their technical approaches to reduce capital expenditure. Rio2 eliminated crushing circuits in favor of run-of-mine operations, while Vista Gold reduced ore sorting from two stages to one, accepting marginally lower recovery rates for significantly reduced upfront costs.The companies have incorporated future expansion capabilities into their designs, with Rio2 planning eventual expansion to 80,000 tons per day and Vista maintaining flexibility for larger operations. However, both emphasize proving operational capability first before pursuing growth capital.This self-reliant development model represents a paradigm shift in the gold sector, where companies must demonstrate cash generation and operational success before attracting premium valuations or strategic partnerships, fundamentally altering the traditional development-to-acquisition timeline.Sign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Arturo Préstamo Elizondo, Executive Chairman and CEO of Santacruz Silver Mining Ltd. (TSXV: SCZ) (OTCQB: SCZMF), joins me to recap the key record Q1 2025 financial results along with a comprehensive review of all operations.  Santacruz Silver operates 1 mine in Mexico, and 5 mines, 3 mills, and an ore feed-sourcing and metals trading business in Bolivia, as an emerging mid-tier silver and base metals producer.   Q1 2025 Highlights   Revenues of $70.3 million, a 34% increase year-over-year. Gross Profit of $27.9 million, a 6882% increase year-over-year. Net Income of $9.5 million, a 93% decrease year-over-year1. Adjusted EBITDA of $27.5 million, a 2202% increase year-over-year. Cash and cash equivalents of $32.5 million, a 706% increase year-over-year. Working Capital of $51.7 million, a 7530% increase year-over-year. Cash cost per silver equivalent ounce sold ($/oz) of $17.84, a 16% decrease year-over-year. AISC per silver equivalent ounce sold of $22.34, a 8% decrease year-over-year. Silver Equivalent Ounces produced of 3,688,129, a 5% decrease year-over-year.    Q1 2025 Production Highlights:   Silver Equivalent Production: 3,688,129 silver equivalent ounces Silver Production: 1,590,063 ounces Zinc Production: 20,719 tonnes Lead Production: 2,718 tonnes Copper Production: 279 tonnes Underground Development: 10,135 meters   Arturo discussed the very strong revenues, gross profit, cash and cash equivalents,  adjusted EBITDA, and working capital up substantial in year-over-year metrics. In addition their cash costs and All-In Sustaining Costs (AISC) numbers came down in a meaningful way due to a combination of factors from mine optimization work paying off, to favorable currency exchange rates, and the positive impact of paying down the Glencore loan early.    Additionally, there was better setup with San Lucas ore-feeding business absorbing the Reserva Mine ore to blend with ore from the small-scale miners, and with it not being blended with Tres Amigos and CQCQT. This made Caballo Blanco much more efficient with better metals recoveries, as well as the San Lucas operations improving efficiencies.   The water issues at Bolivar were limited to just this quarter and resolved and the reason Zimapan was higher cost this quarter was because they just bought some new equipment to optimize operations (like 3 new Scoop trams), and to take advantage of the higher-grade 960 Level.  Those were both one-off effects taken in Q1, but resolved for Q2 and moving forward for the balance of the year.   Wrapping up we reviewed the plan in place to exercise its Acceleration Option to satisfy the Base Purchase Price owed to Glencore, by making payments on a schedule that aligns the accelerated timing whilst meeting the Company's commitment to financial discipline and a strong balance sheet. The plan's primary objective is to save the Company US$40 million. The Company successfully completed payments to Glencore of USD$17.5 million by the end of Q1, and will be paying the remaining of USD$22.5 million by October 31, 2025.     If you have any follow up questions for Arturo regarding Santacruz Silver, then please email them to me Shad@kereport.com.   In full disclosure, Shad is a shareholder of Santacruz Silver at the time of this recording, and may choose to buy or sell shares at any time.   Click here to follow the latest news from Santacruz Silver

Dr. Robert Quartermain, Co-Chairman, Director and CEO of Dakota Gold (NYSE American: DC), joined me for an update on their Richmond Hill Project and Maitland Gold Project, both located in the historic Homestake District of South Dakota, near existing mining infrastructure.   The company is advancing its Richmond Hill project toward eventual surface heap leach gold operation as soon as 2029, and expanding the high-grade gold mineralization discovered at the Maitland Gold Project toward an initial resource estimate.   We start having Robert share his background in the industry, as he was previously the Executive Chairman of Pretium Resources Inc., which he founded in October 2010. Prior to Pretium, he was President and Chief Executive Officer of Silver Standard Resources Inc. (now SSR Mining Inc.) for 25 years from 1985-2010. Not only does he have a wealth of experience in developing and constructing producing mines, but he has assembled a solid management team and board filled with industry veterans that have worked in either the Homestake Mine, before it closed down, or the currently producing nearby Wharf Mine, operated by Coeur Mining.   Richmond Hill is one of the largest undeveloped oxide gold resources in the United States being advanced by a junior mining company, with over 6 million ounces of gold and over 60 million ounces of silver moving along the pathway of development into heap leach production as soon as 2029.

The Company continues Feasibility planning with M3 as the overall Study Manager as well as the lead for processing, while RESPEC will manage the mining and environmental aspects   There are currently two drill rigs turning at Richmond Hill. In 2025, the Company expects to drill ~80,000 feet (24,384 meters) using a combination of Reverse Circulation and Core drilling. The primary focus of the program is to collect metallurgical samples for the Feasibility Study, infill, and expansion resource drilling in the northeast corner of the Project area. This area is expected to be mined at the beginning of the mine plan and is higher-grade than the overall deposit.   At the Maitland Gold Project the Company is currently assessing the exploration data collected to date from the JB Gold Zone and the Unionville Zone with the intent of outlining an initial inferred gold resource. The work is expected to be completed in the fall of 2025. To date the JB Gold Zone has encountered a number of high-grade intersections which average 10.76 g/t Au over 4.0 meters.   With the recent financing announced March 20, 2025, the Company currently has a cash balance of $47 million as noted in the filed 10Q as at March 31, 2025, and is fully financed through the IACF and the subsequent completion of its Feasibility Study on the Project.   If you have any questions for Bob Quartermain regarding Dakota Gold, then please email those in to me at Shad@kereport.com.   In full disclosure, Shad is a shareholder of Dakota Gold at the time of this recording, and may choose to buy or sell shares at any time.   Click here to follow the latest news from Dakota Gold

Labor wants people with super balances over $3 million to pay more tax. That is because the system exists to encourage, and to some extent require, you to save more for your own retirement because the Government can’t afford to help you. Executive Chairman of Yellow Brick Road Home Loans Mark Bouris told Peter Fegan on 4BC Breakfast, "The problem is this will sneak through because most young people do not think about their super." "It's not even a thought, it gets taken out every week, they never see it." "They never think about the day they're going to retire, but they better start thinking about it because everybody in this country deserves to retire comfortably." "Comfortably means you've got to have the most amount of money as possible in your superannuation." "If you want to retire comfortably, you deserve to pay the same rate of tax as your parents and your grandparents did," Mr Bouris said.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What does China's unassailable lead in terms of naval power, the wording of recent US statutes and the adaptability of shipping, all have to do with how a chief financial officer eats their breakfast? It's all about how shipping perceives risk and uncertainty right now. Uncertainty has dominated the shipping industry in the past months. But this narrative that shipowners are paralysed by the geopolitical volatility is only part of the story. The global economy is at a crossroads. We are entering an era of superpower rivalry between the US and China that will fundamentally upend established trading assumptions and fragment shipping down geopolitical lines. Now, depending on who you are talking to, the response to that uncertainty results in either a barely concealed fist-bump of joy as they mentally run through the profitable opportunities ahead, or near term paralysis as they conclude that there is no value in strategic investment in the face of such unknowable odds. And that's because this isn't just the long -term disintegration of a rules-based order that we are talking about, although that is part of it. Near term that uncertainty is created by the fact that it is now security not economics that is driving the bus when it comes to US decision making, and that's confusing everyone. Agility is the new currency for shipping. We have to adapt to all these challenges – shipping's bullish elite told us. Volatility is the lifeblood of profitable shipping and certainty has never been a prerequisite for making decisions. So, why complain about exogenous shocks now? On stage, the message was defiant: shipowners paralysed by the geopolitical swings risk losing out. Off stage, their commitment to specific questions of progress and investment was generally more hesitant. But they still need to make decisions – and that's the focus of this week's podcast. Joining Richard this week on the podcast are: Øystein Tunsjø, Professor of International Relations, Head of Security in Asia Program, Norwegian Institute for Defence Studies, Norwegian Defence University College Brian Maloney, Partner, Seward & Kissel Annicken Kildahl, CFO, Grieg Maritime Group Hing Chao, Executive Chairman, Wah Kwong Maritime Transport

The company owns mineral rights to 75 million tons of tailings and stockpiles from a historic mine originally financed by JP Morgan in 1906, representing a unique opportunity to extract value from previously processed material using modern technology.The economic advantages are compelling. While traditional mining operations face costs of $50-250 per ton for underground extraction and $3-20 per ton for open pit operations, Cerro de Pasco can process tailings at just $1-2 per ton. This dramatic cost reduction, combined with grades averaging 4.3 ounces per ton silver equivalent, creates superior margin potential with minimal operational risk.Recent drilling results have exceeded expectations, revealing substantial gallium deposits averaging 53 grams per ton across 40 holes, with the latest southern holes showing 86 grams per ton. This discovery gains strategic significance amid Chinese export restrictions on gallium, a critical mineral essential for semiconductor manufacturing and defense applications.The project addresses significant environmental challenges affecting 67,000 local residents. The tailings currently produce acid water and pose health risks, making reprocessing the only viable path to environmental remediation. This creates strong community support and regulatory advantages rarely seen in traditional mining operations.Beyond base and precious metals extraction, the company has identified substantial value creation opportunities through pyrite processing, with potential NPVs of $8-9 billion from producing sulfuric acid, direct reduced iron, and green hydrogen. These initiatives align with global decarbonization trends and Peru's critical need for fertilizer production following the cessation of Russian imports.With Eric Sprott holding 22% ownership and sufficient capital to complete feasibility studies by mid-2026, Cerro de Pasco represents a de-risked entry into polymetallic extraction with multiple value creation pathways and strong ESG credentials.Learn more: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/cerro-de-pasco-resourcesSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Interview with Walter Coles, Executive Chairman of Skeena Resources Ltd.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/skeena-resources-tsxske-fully-funded-high-grade-gold-poised-for-production-5657Recording date: 29th May 2025Skeena Gold & Silver is developing the Eskay Creek Mine in British Columbia, positioned to become one of the world's largest gold-silver mines when production begins in early 2027. This project represents a compelling investment opportunity with exceptional economics, significant upside potential, and multiple near-term catalysts that could drive substantial share price appreciation.The project's economics are truly remarkable. At $3,200/oz gold price, Eskay Creek boasts an after-tax NPV of $4.5 billion and an extraordinary 72% internal rate of return. This translates to a payback period of just over six months on the $700 million construction cost. Most impressively, Skeena's all-in sustainable cost per ounce is projected at less than $600 for the first six years of production, compared to approximately $1,700 for major producers like Barrick and Newmont. "We have a project that's super super low on the cost curve, enormously profitable per ounce of production.", explains Coles. This cost advantage creates exceptional profit margins even at much lower gold prices.Skeena has secured comprehensive financing through Orion Resource Partners, removing a major uncertainty that typically impacts junior developers. The $750 million package includes equity, a gold stream, and debt facilities. Since announcing this funding, Skeena's stock has nearly tripled from around $6 to $17 Canadian. The company is now exploring refinancing options to reduce its cost of capital as the project de-risks.Beyond the base case, Skeena is advancing several value-enhancement initiatives. The company plans to extend the mine life from 12 to 15-16 years by incorporating the high-grade Snip deposit and the Albino Lake waste facility. Additionally, Skeena has identified significant antimony, lead, and zinc content worth potentially 2.2 million tons of waste tailings that could be recovered with minimal additional costs.Investors can look forward to several near-term catalysts such as final permits expected in Q4 2025, refinancing of the Orion loan facility in Q1 2026, updated feasibility study in the first half of 2026, and production commencement in early 2027.Skeena's partnership with the Tahltan First Nation adds another layer of strength to the project. The company signed the first agreement in Canada giving a First Nation formal consent rights over a mining project, creating a true partnership that reduces social and political risk factors.For investors seeking exposure to precious metals with significant upside potential, Skeena offers a rare combination of exceptional grade, economics, and execution capability in a tier-one jurisdiction. As the company advances toward production and begins generating substantial cash flow, the valuation gap with producing peers is likely to close, potentially delivering substantial returns to investors who position themselves ahead of these developments.View Skeena Gold & Silver's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/skeena-resourcesSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

He built Fortescue into a hugely successful company, partly thanks to his belief in taking unconventional paths. After a serious accident meant he had to take a break from work, he enrolled in a PhD in marine science. For over a decade now, has been very vocally committed to getting his company's practices aligned with a climate-safe pathway.

In this RSAC special episode of Inside the Network, we sit down not with one, but two remarkable guests from the center of the cybersecurity world.First, we're joined by Andy Cao, COO of ProjectDiscovery, a company focused on open-source vulnerability management tools, which won the "Most Innovative Startup" award at the RSA Conference 2025 Innovation Sandbox. Andy shares how ProjectDiscovery is reimagining vulnerability management in an AI-driven world, what set their pitch apart in the Innovation Sandbox, and how their attacker-first mindset is reshaping how security teams discover and fix real-world exposures. With over 1 million users and thousands of Nuclei templates, ProjectDiscovery is aiming to make vulnerability detection radically faster, smarter, and more accessible.Then, we shift gears to talk with Dr. Hugh Thompson, Executive Chairman and Program Committee Chair of RSAC. A world-renowned security expert and longtime steward of the conference, Hugh takes us behind the curtain of what it takes to run the world's largest cybersecurity gathering, including the bold moves that shaped this year's Innovation Sandbox, the evolution of the RSAC brand, and the future of security thought leadership in the age of AI. And most intriguingly, Hugh gives us an exclusive answer to the question everyone's been asking - is RSAC 2026 moving to Las Vegas?To close, Mahendra, Sid, and Ross share their favorite moments from the show floor - the trends that caught their attention, the buzz from founders and investors, and yes, even a surprise guest spotted at the expo (spoiler: it's not a unicorn, but maybe the GOAT?).Whether you made it to RSAC this year or followed from afar, this episode brings you fresh insights from both the main stage and the show floor.

Episode 246: The AI future of customer service is already here—and it's better than most people think. In this episode, Deon Nicholas, President and Executive Chairman of Forethought, joins host Rob Markey to show us how some companies are already using AI to resolve customer issues end-to-end in ways we could barely imagine just a couple of years ago. Deon introduces us to agentic AI: an emerging class of intelligent agents that take real action, integrate across enterprise systems, and adapt to each customer's needs. Drawing on his experience building Forethought's platform, Deon reveals how these systems are resolving issues, improving customer satisfaction, and going live in as little as 1 to 30 days. This isn't a future promise. It's happening now. The episode explores the architecture behind agentic AI, including Forethought's use of multi-agent systems, plain-language Autoflows, and a Discover model that learns company policies from historical tickets and call logs. Rob and Deon dig into risk, hallucination, and data privacy concerns—and how to address them without six-month implementation timelines. A surprising insight? Forethought sometimes adds a delay to its lightning-fast responses. Why? To build trust through operational transparency. Deon explains how even loading dots can reassure customers that the system is working on their behalf.

Key Topics Covered [1:00] Agentic AI vs. traditional chatbots [2:00] Why chatbots fail regarding decision trees and limitations [4:00] Real-time AI issue resolution and automation [7:00] AI integration with enterprise systems [12:00] Fast deployment and autoflow policy learning [15:00] Multi-agent AI systems and scalability [18:00] AI adoption challenges and business integration [22:00] Balancing AI automation and human agent handoffs [27:00] Cost comparison of AI vs. business process outsourcing [30:00] Rapid AI deployment and testing strategies Time-stamped Notable Quotes [4:00]  “With an agentic AI, you have something that has learned from your business policies. It's read through hundreds of thousands of past conversations, knows the vernacular, knows how to respond, and knows the business policy. So, instead of getting a menu of items, you just have a conversation.” [13:00]  “You probably already have hundreds of thousands of conversations, whether they're sitting in transcripts, support tickets, [or] call recordings. It turns out that is a wealth of data that can train an AI in such a way that you don't need to manually create all these rules and decision trees and workflows.” [ 16:00] “When we first launched our LLM-native AI two years ago, there were some hallucinations. But we've been able to go through, evaluate the model, fine-tune the model, and now we're at the point where it rarely happens. What we typically say to everyone is: ‘Test it. Test it before you launch it, run a 14-day free trial, proof of value, run us against anyone else in the market.'” [21:00]  “What's beautiful about all of this is now you get to the point where AI can become embedded into the ecosystem—and, ironically, make all of these human experiences better.” [21:00] “AI is making it so that when it's time to actually hand off to a human agent, you're far less frustrated, or far less likely to be frustrated. And then the humans will now be resolving issues that require more judgment and more empathy.”

Today, on Notable Leaders' Radio, I speak with David Steele, Founder + CEO of One Wealth Advisors and co-founder and Executive Chairman of Flour + Water Hospitality Group He highlights how applying the principles of service, goal-setting, and valuing people has shaped his journey from financial planning to building successful restaurant groups and supporting arts organizations. In today's episode, we discuss: True business success is rooted in serving others, not just making profits, because when work benefits others, it leads to deeper happiness and long-lasting impact, meaning you can feel good about making a difference while growing your business. Skills and principles are transferable from one industry to another, as David demonstrates by applying the same collaborative and organizational strategies across finance, food, and the arts, so you're not stuck on one path and can reinvent yourself in new fields with confidence. Pivotal life changes often start with self-awareness and honesty about dissatisfaction, like David's shift from being a successful stockbroker to a more fulfilling (but initially less lucrative) fee-based financial planning career. The lesson? It's okay, and sometimes essential, to pivot, especially if your values aren't being met. Caring for your team's well-being, even at a short-term cost, pays off through loyalty, retention, and greater future success, as shown by David's choice to keep his executive team during tough times, so you can build a lasting, supportive company culture.   Guest Bio David Steele, Founder + CEO of One Wealth Advisors and co-founder and Executive Chairman of Flour + Water Hospitality Group My primary role is as the co-founder and CEO of One Wealth Advisors, where we help people simplify their lives and achieve financial goals through Financial Life Planning.

The culinary, health, arts, and entertainment worlds are particularly important to me, as reflected in my advisory roles with Noise Pop, Brilliant Corners, Rad Restaurant Group and Folk Studios. While my background may suggest diverse interests, everything I do follows a consistent, disciplined approach: working collaboratively with partners and team members, setting clear goals, developing and executing strategic plans to achieve those goals, and continually monitoring results to ensure success.   Website/Social Links https://davidsteele.xyz/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/david-steele-76088a?   Belinda's Bio: Belinda Pruyne is a renowned Leadership Advisor, Executive Coach, Consultant, and Keynote Speaker recognized for her ability to transform executives, professionals, and small business owners into highly respected, influential leaders.
