In this episode, Michelle shares her honest experience after spending a full year in a networking group — including the time commitment, the revenue results, and what she learned along the way. We break down the real numbers, the expectations versus reality, and why what seems like a great visibility strategy isn't always the right fit.  Key takeaways from this episode: Visibility is not the same as being in the right room. Just because you're showing up doesn't mean the environment is aligned. Networking groups often favor transactional businesses. Industries like real estate, finance, and roofing naturally pass referrals — photography is a more emotional, less frequent purchase. Track your data, not just your feelings. When Michelle broke down the numbers, she could make a clear, objective decision. Everything you say yes to means saying no to something else. A four-hour weekly commitment carries real opportunity cost. Experiments aren't failures — they're clarity. The year wasn't wasted; it sharpened her messaging and helped her evaluate where her time is best spent. Environment matters. Effort alone cannot overcome a misaligned room. This is an honest look at what happens when effort meets a misaligned room — and how to evaluate business experiments without making it mean something about you. If you've ever wondered whether networking groups are worth your time as a photographer, this conversation will give you clarity.

One of the most senior former Conservative defectors to Reform UK has said she is happy if the party pursues socialist policies ;like nationalising failing parts of the British economy.Former Tory Home Secretary Suella Braverman also said she was yet to receive a personal apology from Tory leader Kemi Badenoch after the party wrongly suggested she had mental health issues before she defected.Braverman was speaking as Reform UK leader Nigel Farage prepares to hand out spokesman roles to his team of seven MPs early next week as the party tries to present itself as a credible party of government.Reform has been criticised by those on the right of politics for backing left wing policies such as nationalising parts of the UK steel industry and lifting the two child benefit cap for some Britons. However Braverman told GB News' Chopper's Political Podcast she was not troubled by this.Asked if she were "happy" if her party pursued "socialist" policies, she said: "I am actually. So I think there's actually a case for - if we are serious about industrializing our country and a renaissance of our industry - state involvement in our industries."Our heavy industries have been abandoned and unable to compete against a more powerful and ascendant East. And so I do think there is a very strong case. "The benefit will be more jobs. The benefit will be more growth for our economy. And I do think that radical thinking needs to be put in place."Beat the system with TallyMoney. Gold you can spend.

Leadership advisor and author Greg Morley joins me to unpack what it actually takes to rebound from setbacks—and why resilience isn't an individual trait as much as a relational one.Most conversations about adversity focus on grit, mindset, or personal toughness. This episode doesn't. Greg and I explore what happens after layoffs, career pivots, health crises, and identity shifts—and why the people who rally fastest are rarely the ones who go it alone.Drawing from over 30 years in global HR leadership, and from interviews conducted for his upcoming book Rally, Greg shares lessons from individuals who endured job loss, serious illness, organizational upheaval, and even genocide. The common thread isn't bravado. It's perspective, learning velocity, and community depth.We discuss why layoffs feel existential, how high burn rates trap professionals in fragile career paths, and why optionality comes from lowering fixed costs—both financial and psychological. We also examine the hidden tension between success and validation, and why redefining what “winning” means is often the first step toward rebuilding.This isn't a conversation about avoiding setbacks. It's about designing a life resilient enough to absorb them.The lesson isn't endurance for its own sake.It's adaptability, self-reflection, and tending the relationships that hold when titles fall away.TL;DR* Resilience is less about toughness and more about future orientation* Recovery speed determines long-term trajectory* Community acts as long-term insurance against career shocks* High fixed costs limit professional flexibility* Continuous learning expands rebound opportunities* Validation through status or possessions creates fragile identity* Simplicity increases adaptability* Listening across differences builds durable relationshipsMemorable Lines* “Rally isn't about pretending nothing happened—it's about moving forward with what you learned.”* “Your network is a long-term investment, not a short-term transaction.”* “Lower the bar you have to step over, and the world opens up.”* “You can't control the shock—but you can control the response.”* “Resilience lives in community, not isolation.”GuestGreg Morley — Leadership advisor, former global HR executive, and authorAuthor of Bond: Belonging and the Keys to Inclusion and Connection and the forthcoming Rally, focused on resilience, recovery, and leadership through adversity.

In this episode of Valley of Depth, we sit down with David Tearse, co-founder and CEO of Karman Industries, to explore a piece of the AI boom that rarely gets attention: thermal infrastructure.As hyperscale data centers grow into multi-gigawatt “AI factories,” the limiting factor is no longer just chips or capital — it's how efficiently we can move and reject heat. David explains how Karman's Heat Processing Unit (HPU) reimagines cooling from first principles, bringing aerospace-grade turbomachinery and modern power electronics to a decidedly unglamorous but critical layer of the AI stack.The conversation moves from the physics of heat to the politics of data centers, and ultimately to why thermal efficiency may become a quiet national security advantage.We discuss:Why thermal management—not chips—may be the next bottleneck in the AI stackHow Karman's HPU replaces traditional chillers and dry coolers outside the data centerHow much additional compute Karman can unlock from the same power inputWhy CO₂ refrigerant de-risks data center builds from a regulatory standpointHow Karman thinks about reliability, uptime, and “aerospace-style” engineeringWhy data centers are becoming a national security issueWhere Karman could expand beyond data centers—nuclear, geothermal, and beyond…and much more.• Chapters •00:00 – Intro00:51 – Elara Nova ad01:21 – Karman Industries mascot02:28 – How would David describe himself?05:01 – The original insight that became Karman Industries06:31 – What do people underestimate about thermal management?07:26 – The story behind the name08:21 – How David and co-founder CJ Karla ended up working together11:15 – Why is now the right time to be solving thermal management?15:13 – Where does the heat go today?16:31 – Energy usage for compute vs cooling17:32 – Energy Savings with Karman's heat processing units (HPUs)18:05 – Why C02?20:48 – Replacing vs integration21:37 – Regulatory side24:42 – Karman's customer pipeline26:33 – Reliability28:59 – Engineering challenges30:39 – What comes next for Karman31:55 – Is thermal management a national security issue?33:21 – David's thoughts on rerouting heat36:23 – HPUs in space37:58 – The company culture that allows for building relaiable solutions quickly44:35 – Milestones for Karman in the next couple of years47:00 – What does David do for fun? • Show notes •Karman's website —https://www.karmanindustries.com/David's socials — https://x.com/7earseMo's socials — https://x.com/itsmoislamPayload's socials — https://twitter.com/payloadspace / https://www.linkedin.com/company/payloadspaceIgnition's socials — https://twitter.com/ignitionnuclear / https://www.linkedin.com/company/ignition-nuclear/Tectonic's socials  — https://twitter.com/tectonicdefense / https://www.linkedin.com/company/tectonicdefense/Valley of Depth archive — Listen: https://pod.payloadspace.com/ • About us •Valley of Depth is a podcast about the technologies that matter — and the people building them.

Bitcoin traders "adopted SLV and GLD as their meme stocks," says George Noble. He attributes the rise of retail interest in the metal space to their profound volatility. That said, George tells investors, "don't pay attention to the daily volatility," noting both silver and gold are up double digits so far in 2026. As traders see silver as a play in AI and EVs, George makes the case that if prices go up so much, builders will just turn to other metals. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

Merryn Somerset Webb is joined by Sky News economics editor Ed Conway, author of Material World, to explain why the real engines of modern life aren’t apps and algorithms—they’re the raw materials and “unseen” industries that make everything else possible. From salt and ethylene to ammonia and soda ash, Conway argues the UK (and Europe) are rapidly losing core chemical manufacturing capacity, driven by high energy costs and complacency about imports, with serious consequences for healthcare supply chains, industrial resilience and even defense. As the world pivots back toward the physical economy, from AI data centers to net-zero infrastructure, this conversation is a wake-up call for policymakers, investors and anyone who assumes critical materials will always be available on demand.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This episode originally appeared on the Network State Podcast. Balaji Srinivasan and Benedict Evans sit down in Singapore for a wide-ranging conversation on the mechanics of disruption. Evans, a former Andreessen Horowitz partner who now writes one of tech's most-read newsletters, argues that the conversation about any technology peaks during the transition—not at 0% or 100% adoption. They cover AI's real capabilities and limits, the politics of technological disruption, why crypto's killer metric is block space, and what smart glasses, elevator attendants, and the elephant graph reveal about how change works.  Resources:Follow Benedict Evans on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/benedictevans/Check out Benedict's Newsletter: https://www.ben-evans.com/newsletterFollow Balaji Srinivasan on X: https://x.com/balajisCheck out Network State Podcast: https://www.youtube.com/@nspodcastHigh Output Management: https://www.amazon.com/High-Output-Management-Andrew-Grove-ebook/dp/B015VACHOK/eHang: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nUTu4_8QznEThe Deep Research Problem: https://www.ben-evans.com/benedictevans/2025/2/17/the-deep-research-problemARC AGI: https://arcprize.org/arc-agiUber and Airbnb didn't sell software: https://www.ben-evans.com/benedictevans/2025/3/14/what-kind-of-disruptionAI Use cases: https://www.ben-evans.com/benedictevans/2024/4/19/looking-for-ai-use-casesStablecoin surpasses Visa & Mastercard: https://crypto.news/ark-invest-stablecoin-transaction-value-in-2024-surpasses-visa-and-mastercard/Senate passes stablecoin bill: https://www.reuters.com/sustainability/boards-policy-regulation/us-senate-passes-stablecoin-bill-milestone-crypto-industry-2025-06-17/ Stay Updated:If you enjoyed this episode, be sure to like, subscribe, and share with your friends!Find a16z on X: https://twitter.com/a16zFind a16z on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/a16zListen to the a16z Podcast on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5bC65RDvs3oxnLyqqvkUYXListen to the a16z Podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/a16z-podcast/id842818711Follow our host: https://x.com/eriktorenbergPlease note that the content here is for informational purposes only; should NOT be taken as legal, business, tax, or investment advice or be used to evaluate any investment or security; and is not directed at any investors or potential investors in any a16z fund. a16z and its affiliates may maintain investments in the companies discussed.

Brady sits down with Danny Barreto of Airlock Industries to dig into what makes the Zero Gravity suppressors such a standout for hunters—especially when ounces, durability, and real-world performance all matter. Plus, the backstory on how he helped Brady rethink using a suppressor for hunting.They break down Airlock's engineering-first design philosophy—more time spent in development and testing, less time chasing flashy marketing hype—and what that means for backcountry hunters. From rifle setup and hearing protection to practical field considerations, this episode covers how to think about suppression as part of a complete hunting system. And Brady gets to the big question: why does Airlock seem to be everywhere so fast? If you've been curious about going suppressed for hunting (or you already do and want to nerd out on the why), this one's for you.Learn more about GOHUNT.Follow Brady on Instagram.Follow GOHUNT on Social Media:InstagramYouTube - Podcast ChannelYouTube - Main ChannelFacebook

In today's rapidly evolving job market, the need for continuous learning and skill development has never been more critical. With the advent of advanced technologies and automation, many workers find themselves grappling with the challenge of maintaining their employability in an increasingly competitive landscape. Traditional methods of education and training often fall short, as they may not cater to the unique needs of individual workers or the specific demands of their industries. This is where AI-driven upskilling solutions, such as those offered by companies like Viblio, come into play.The Role of AI in UpskillingAI-driven upskilling platforms leverage sophisticated algorithms to analyze a myriad of factors, including technology trends, job roles, and personality traits. By synthesizing this data, these platforms can curate personalized learning experiences tailored to the specific needs of each worker. For instance, Viblio positions itself as an AI mentor that functions similarly to a Spotify recommendation system, suggesting relevant content - from educational programs to podcasts and videos - that aligns with the worker's career aspirations and learning style.The beauty of this approach lies in its personalization. Rather than adopting a one-size-fits-all methodology, Viblio's AI-driven system adapts to the individual learner's pace and preferences, ensuring that the content is not only relevant but also engaging. This personalization is crucial, as it fosters a deeper connection to the learning material and enhances the likelihood of skill acquisition and retention.Addressing Workforce ChallengesOne of the most pressing challenges workers face today is the rapid pace of technological advancement. Industries are evolving at breakneck speed, and workers must keep up to remain relevant. This is particularly evident in sectors like manufacturing and information technology, where the demand for tech-savvy employees is soaring. Companies that fail to upskill their workforce risk falling behind in the competitive market.Viblio's focus on B2B solutions highlights the importance of organizational support in the upskilling process. By partnering with companies across various sectors-such as banks, manufacturing firms, and insurance companies-Viblio aims to facilitate a culture of continuous learning. This not only benefits the individual employees, who gain new skills and enhance their employability, but also helps organizations remain competitive by ensuring their workforce is equipped to handle new technologies and methodologies.Learning as an ExperienceAnother significant advantage of Viblio's AI-driven upskilling is the recognition that learning is not confined to traditional classroom settings. Viblio emphasizes the importance of diverse learning stimuli, suggesting that educational content can come from various sources, including podcasts and videos, and can be integrated into daily routines. This holistic approach to learning acknowledges that knowledge acquisition can occur in myriad forms and contexts, making it more accessible and less daunting for workers.By creating habits that encourage continuous learning, AI-driven platforms empower workers to take charge of their professional development. This proactive approach is essential in a world where the only constant is change. Workers are encouraged to seek out knowledge and skills actively, fostering a mindset of lifelong learning that is crucial for career longevity.Future ImplicationsAs AI technology continues to advance, the potential for enhancing upskilling initiatives will only grow. The ability to analyze vast amounts of data and generate insights will enable even more refined learning experiences tailored to the evolving job market. Furthermore, as companies like Viblio expand their reach-potentially entering new markets like the United States-their impact on workforce development could be substantial.ConclusionIn conclusion, Viblio's AI-driven upskilling represents a transformative shift in how workers approach their professional development. By leveraging technology to personalize learning experiences, address workforce challenges, and promote a culture of continuous learning, these innovative solutions are not just preparing workers for the jobs of today but are also equipping them for the careers of tomorrow.

Operating conditions in advanced manufacturing are changing fast as organizations push to modernize operations while navigating quality requirements, long lead times, and increasingly complex supply chains. As leaders look to apply AI across the physical world, many discover that technology alone is not enough. Success depends on strong operating fundamentals, clean master data, and a culture that aligns teams around execution, accountability, and continuous improvement.In this episode of Supply Chain Now, Scott Luton is joined by special guest host Wiley Jones to kick off a new 2026 series, Enterprise Unleashed, powered by the DOSS team. Together, they sit down with Garuth Acharya, investor at 8090 Industries and former operator with experience across GE, SpaceX, and Blue Origin, to explore what it really takes to build AI ready operations in advanced manufacturing. The conversation examines why AI initiatives often fail in industrial environments when data hygiene is weak, and why clean, correct, actionable data and disciplined master data practices are foundational to any successful transformation.The discussion also emphasizes practical ways AI can unlock value, from accelerating work instructions to improving shortage detection, surfacing procurement anomalies, and strengthening quality feedback loops. The panel returns to the human side of transformation: mission alignment, cross functional collaboration, clear ownership, and spending time on the shop floor before deciding what to build, buy, or partner for.Jump into the conversation:(00:00) Intro(00:47) Introducing the new series for 2026(01:32) Focus on AI-ready operations and advanced manufacturing(02:44) Special guest: Garuth Acharya(03:31) Guru's background and career journey(04:31) Rattlesnake wrestling and early career adventures(06:52) Experiences at SpaceX and Blue Origin(10:27) The importance of culture in high-stakes environments(14:59) AI in manufacturing and supply chain(20:10) Challenges and solutions in AI implementation(25:17) The importance of clean master data(26:22) Engineering and production challenges(27:26) Operational insights and red flags(29:47) Building a culture of clarity and ownership(33:35) Prioritizing modernizing operations(41:42) Advice for AI-ready operationsAdditional Links & Resources:Connect with Wiley Jones: https://www.linkedin.com/in/wileycwjones/Learn more about DOSS: https://www.doss.com/Connect with Garuth Acharya: https://www.linkedin.com/in/garuthacharya/Learn more about 8090 Industries: https://www.8090industries.com/Connect with Scott Luton:

Xi Jinping, general secretary of the Communist Party of China Central Committee, has called for efforts to leverage the country's comparative advantages, pursue progress while maintaining stability, and promote continuous breakthroughs in the development of industries of the future.中共中央总书记习近平强调，要充分发挥我国比较优势，在保持稳定中谋求发展，推动未来产业持续突破。Xi made the remarks on Friday while presiding over a group study session of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee.习近平在周五主持中共中央政治局集体学习时作出上述讲话。He noted that cultivating and developing industries of the future is of great significance to gaining a competitive edge in science, technology and industry, as well as to seizing initiative in development. It is also crucial to the development of new quality productive forces, the construction of a modern industrial system, the improvement of the people's quality of life, and the promotion of well-rounded human development and overall social progress, he said.习近平指出，培育和发展未来产业，对于在科技产业领域赢得竞争优势、掌握发展主动权具有重大意义。这对培育高质量生产力、构建现代产业体系、提升人民生活质量、促进全面发展和全面进步也具有重要意义。Industries of the future are characterized by foresight, strategic importance and disruptive potential, requiring scientific planning and holistic coordination, Xi emphasized, calling for efforts to strengthen industrial synergy to ensure that future, emerging and traditional industries complement and reinforce one another.习近平强调，未来产业具有前瞻性、战略性和颠覆性特征，需要科学规划和统筹协调。他呼吁加强产业协同，确保未来产业、新兴产业和传统产业相互补充、相互强化。He noted that the extent of scientific and technological breakthroughs largely determines the speed, breadth and depth of the development of future industries.习近平指出，科技突破的程度在很大程度上决定了未来产业发展的速度、广度和深度。The advantages of the new system for nationwide mobilization of resources should be fully leveraged, efforts to achieve breakthroughs in core technologies in key fields should be intensified, and the strategic, forward-looking and systematic layout of basic research should be strengthened, he said, adding that the application and commercialization of sci-tech achievements should be accelerated.习近平指出，要充分发挥全国动员资源的新机制优势，加大关键领域核心技术突破力度，加强基础研究的战略性、前瞻性和系统性布局，加快科技成果应用转化和产业化进程。"We should give full play to the role of enterprises, promote the concentration of various innovation resources in enterprises, and vigorously cultivate leading technology enterprises and high-tech companies with strong core technologies and robust innovation capabilities," Xi said.习近平指出，要充分发挥企业作用，推动各类创新资源向企业集中，着力培育具有核心技术和强大创新能力的技术领军企业和高新技术企业。He emphasized the need to improve fiscal and tax policies, vigorously develop sci-tech finance, comprehensively foster, attract and utilize talent, and promote a vibrant environment that encourages innovation across society.习近平强调要完善财税政策，大力发展科技金融，全面培育、吸引和利用人才，营造全社会创新的活力环境。It is necessary to ensure development and security as well as explore scientific and effective regulatory approaches to prevent related risks, he said, calling for deepened international cooperation and the active promotion of joint development of standards, collaborative rule-making and coordinated industrial advancement.习近平表示，必须确保发展与安全并重，探索科学有效的监管方式以防范相关风险，呼吁深化国际合作，积极推动标准联合制定、规则协同制定和产业协同发展。holistic/hoʊlˈɪs.tɪk/adj.整体的，全面的synergy/ˈsɪn.ɚ.dʒi/n.协同作用，增效作用

For many women, the hardest part of working in male-dominated industries isn't the work itself—it's the constant pressure to prove, tolerate, and stay quiet just to belong. In this powerful conversation, Samantha shares her lived experience as one of the few women in aviation and maintenance, revealing the mental toll of being the "only one in the room" and how that pressure quietly erodes confidence, self-worth, and wellbeing. This episode is about protecting your mental health without shrinking, and learning how to stay, lead, and earn what you're worth—without burning out. ABOUT THE GUEST: Samantha Kaye Harris is a workforce retention and confidence strategist for women in the trades and other male-dominated fields. With more than 25 years of experience in industries like aviation and structural maintenance, she helps women speak up, lead strong, and stay in careers they worked hard to get into— instead of feeling pushed out. ACTIONABLE TAKEAWAYS: 1. START YOUR BRAG BAG TODAY Document your achievements, wins, and accolades—no matter how small. Review it when self-doubt creeps in. 2. DOCUMENT YOUR EXPERIENCES Write down when you're interrupted, overlooked, or disrespected. Don't dismiss it as "just the guys." 3. PRACTICE SELF-VALIDATION Stop waiting for external validation. Trust that you are qualified, capable, and belong. 4. SET BOUNDARIES WITHOUT APOLOGIZING Practice saying: "Let me finish," or "Give me a moment, and then you speak." 5. REFRAME CHALLENGES AS GROWTH Ask yourself: "What am I learning from this that will help elevate me?" 6. BREATHE AND RECONNECT When overwhelmed, stop and take a deep breath. Remind yourself of who you are. 7.

In this episode of the Healthy, Wealthy and Smart podcast, Dr. Karen Litzy interviews Pete Moore, founder of Integrity Square, discussing the evolution of the health, active lifestyle, and outdoor sector, known as Halo. They explore the shortcomings of the term 'wellness', the importance of understanding business valuations and KPIs, and the emotional readiness required for business transitions. Pete shares insights on navigating growth, preparing for exits, and the significance of knowing one's competitors and market position. Takeaways The term 'wellness' is outdated and not serving the industry. Understanding your market position is crucial for business success. Local libraries can be valuable resources for business research. Key performance indicators (KPIs) are essential for evaluating business health. Emotional readiness is as important as financial readiness for business transitions. Knowing your competitors helps in strategic planning. Valuations are driven by more than just revenue multipliers. Founders often overlook the importance of mental preparation for exits. Networking and mentorship are vital for entrepreneurial growth. Continuous learning and adaptation are key to success in the Halo sector.  Chapters 00:00 Introduction to Halo and Wellness 01:49 Navigating Business Growth and Exits 03:22 Understanding Valuations and KPIs 05:54 Emotional Readiness for Business Transitions 06:56 Quickfire Insights for Entrepreneurs More About Pete: Pete is the Founder, Managing Partner and Chief Dream Architect at Integrity Square ("ISQ"), a leading boutique financial advisory firm focused on the $4.7T Health, Active Lifestyle, Outdoor ("HALO") sector.  Since founding ISQ in 2010, the firm has played an active advisory role in 100+ mergers & acquisitions, private placements and advisory assignments across North America.

This week on Whiskey and Windage, we sit down with the team from Troy Industries for an in-depth conversation covering where the company is today and where it's headed next. Known for their long history of rugged, duty-driven equipment, Troy walks us through their current rifle lineup and how their design philosophy prioritizes reliability, durability, and real-world performance. We also dig into Troy's approach to suppressors, discussing how sound, backpressure, and mounting considerations factor into their development process. The conversation expands into new product territory with a look at Troy's latest modular scope mount, breaking down why adaptability and repeatability are becoming increasingly important for modern shooters. We also cover one of Troy's more distinctive offerings—the Squid Grips—and the thinking behind ergonomics, materials, and user customization. Rather than focusing solely on end use, this episode centers on product development, engineering tradeoffs, and how Troy balances innovation with the expectations of a demanding user base.

Since its release in 1976, ABBA's song "Fernando" has been loved by fans around the globe both for its sing-along chorus and its revolutionary spirit. In Fernando: A Song by ABBA (Duke UP, 2025), Kay Dickinson takes readers from Sweden and Chile to Australia and Poland, tracing the complicated ways the song could express support with anticapitalist and Third World liberation struggles while remaining an unrepentant commodity. A song about freedom fighters was unlikely to become a pop mega-hit, yet as Dickinson demonstrates, ABBA's lucrative, longstanding appeal rests on their ability to bridge contradictions within everyday life. Five decades later, "Fernando's" rousing calls for freedom continue to resonate with gay liberation movements and other social struggles, demonstrating how a song can be both revolutionary and an envoy for global capital. Kay Dickinson is Programme Convenor for Creative Arts and Industries at the University of Glasgow and author of Supply Chain Cinema: Producing Global Film Workers.

Bradley Morgan is a media arts professional in Chicago and author of U2's The Joshua Tree: Planting Roots in Mythic America (Backbeat Books, 2021), Frank Zappa's America (LSU Press, 2025), and U2: Until the End of the World (Gemini Books, 2025).

Entrepreneur and sales strategist Doug Brown joins me to unpack what really happens when success collapses—and why the ability to rebuild matters more than avoiding failure.Most business conversations glamorize wins and sanitize losses. This episode does neither. Doug Brown and I walk through the uncomfortable reality of losing millions, starting over with almost nothing, and repeatedly reinventing yourself when the old path no longer works. From early failures in telecom and software to rebuilding after financial wipeouts, Doug shares what persistence actually looks like beyond motivational slogans.We explore why “safe careers” are an illusion, how low burn rates create optionality, and why scrimping alone won't build a meaningful life. This is a candid conversation about volatility, personal identity, money, family, regret, and why wisdom often comes from getting knocked down—then learning how to get up faster the next time.The lesson isn't masochism or chaos. It's designing a life and business resilient enough to absorb hits without losing yourself in the process.TL;DR* Reinvention isn't a phase—it's a permanent skill in modern life.* Failure isn't the problem; slow recovery time is.* Low burn rates create flexibility and asymmetric upside.* “Safe” careers can disappear faster than risky ones.* Wealth without alignment creates loneliness, not freedom.* Cash flow matters more than cash hoarding.* Regret comes more from inaction than from failed attempts.Memorable Lines* “It's not the setback—it's how fast you recover.”* “Live modestly so your life becomes a call option.”* “Money lets you arrive at your problems in style.”* “You only have to get it right once to set yourself free.”* “All the chips get pushed back to the middle eventually.”GuestDoug Brown — Entrepreneur, sales strategist, and founder of CEO Sales StrategiesFormer president of Tony Robbins' companies, advisor to global organizations, and veteran of 37 businesses across multiple industries.
