Can a single conversation help rewrite centuries of racial trauma? In this episode, host Gabe Howard sits down with award-winning podcaster Dominic Lawson to explore how America's racial wounds continue to shape our collective mental health — and what it takes to begin healing. From the generational echoes of slavery to the modern-day silencing of diversity and inclusion, Dominic breaks down why talking about race isn't “divisive” — it's essential.

Using vivid analogies (like concert tickets and cookouts), they discuss racism and racial trauma in approachable ways. Listeners will learn: why racial trauma still impacts communities today how privilege is better understood through access, not advantage how personal conversations can bridge racial divides practical ways to “do the work” without causing harm or overstepping If you've ever wondered how to talk about race — or where to even start — this episode is your invitation.

What if the moments that define you are the ones no one ever sees? I came across a Forbes article about Netflix co-founder Marc Randolph, and it hit me like a fastball down the middle. He shared a story from his high school baseball days that perfectly captures what leadership, relationships, and success are all about—backing people up even when nobody's looking.In this episode, I break down how the simple act of showing up every day—doing what's right, doing what you've practiced, doing what's second nature—creates impact you might never see. We talk about ego, recognition, and how to keep going when the applause doesn't come. Because here's the truth: your consistency is the seed that grows someone else's breakthrough.I'll challenge you to shift your mindset—from chasing validation to embracing purpose. Be the one who's there every day. Be the one who backs others up. Be the seed planter.Connect:Connect with Rick: https://linktr.ee/mrrickjordanSubscribe & Review to ALL IN with Rick Jordan on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/RickJordanALLIN
Founder-inspired by Netflix, powered by AI, and tested with lean startup tactics - Dublin's Sunday afternoon clubbing experiment finds its crowd. On Sunday 21st September, Dublin entrepreneur Saoirse Sheridan hosted her pilot Dance Space event at Wigwam, Dublin 1, with Reveller Music on the decks - a Sunday afternoon, alcohol-free clubbing experience. Around 20 people attended, 12 tickets were sold (€205 gross sales), and the feedback was overwhelmingly positive, with participants praising the atmosphere, the music, and the novelty of a daytime, booze-free dance floor. Dance Space Pilot in Dublin The spark for Dance Space came earlier this summer when Sheridan listened to Netflix founder Marc Randolph on The Diary of a CEO podcast discussing the power of rapid idea validation. "That really resonated - I had a personal problem: I love the clubbing vibe but don't want late nights or alcohol. Using lean startup thinking, I realized I could test the idea quickly, cheaply, and see if anyone else felt the same," Sheridan explains. The pilot investment To test the idea properly, Sheridan invested about €1,500 upfront in branding, a simple website, and promotion - the basics needed to get the first event off the ground. The pilot itself brought in €205 in ticket sales, with around 20 people dancing on the day. "Yes, it cost me money, but the real goal wasn't profit on the first night. The point was validation: would people actually come, enjoy it, and want more? And the answer, based on the energy in the room, was a definite yes." Fast learning with AI Sheridan leaned on AI tools throughout the process - from drafting the website to preparing event communications. Working with three interns, she was able to move from idea to launch in just a few months. After the pilot, she is now using ChatGPT to review ticketing data and customer feedback in preparation for the next event on 19th October. "It's all about test, learn, and pivot. AI can speed things up, but it's the human response in the room that tells you whether you're onto something," she notes. National attention Ahead of the pilot, Sheridan was interviewed on RTÉ Radio 1's Ray D'Arcy Show, which helped spread the word nationally and brought fresh attention to the idea. Bigger picture: cultural shifts The pilot reflects broader changes in Ireland's social habits. Alcohol consumption has fallen by 30% in the last two decades, and the sober-curious movement is growing, particularly among Gen Z. Wellness is no longer confined to gyms or yoga studios - people are looking for social spaces that fit with healthier lifestyles and Monday morning commitments. Sheridan says Dance Space is part of that bigger picture, but she is also realistic: "For me, this doesn't have to turn into a huge venture to be worthwhile. The real win is testing the idea, seeing people enjoy themselves, and learning from it. That in itself has been very rewarding." Balancing projects At the same time, Sheridan remains fully committed to her main venture, Elder Home Share, a social enterprise matching older people with housemates for support and companionship. Dance Space, she says, is a passion project and a live case study in rapid validation. "This has been a great learning experience. Even if it doesn't become a big long-term project, proving an idea quickly and seeing people enjoy it has been worthwhile in itself," she reflects. Founder's takeaway Dance Space represents not only a new addition to Ireland's wellness scene but also an example of how entrepreneurial thinking and AI tools can lower the barriers to testing ideas fast. Sheridan laughs: "I had a good dance myself, was home for my Sunday dinner, and in bed by 9pm - just the way I like it." About the founder: Saoirse Sheridan is the founder of Elder Home Share, a Dublin-based social enterprise that matches older people with compatible housemates for companionship and support.

You would think the most brilliant of entrepreneurs would rarely face failure. After all, didn't they just come up with one genius idea and money started flooding in? Not the case for Netflix co-founder, Marc Randolph. The truth? Marc was told, “That will never work,” more times than he could count. In this vulnerable conversation, Marc shares the challenges and harsh rejection he faced during the early days of Netflix and peels back the curtain of the often-glamorized world of entrepreneurship. And he says the problems you see every day in your business or your job could be your golden ticket to big profits.

It's the season finale of Entrepreneur Elevator Pitch and the final chance for one more round of entrepreneurs to secure life-changing investments from our board. As always, entrepreneurs have 60 seconds to pitch their big ideas. If our board of investors likes what they hear, the elevator doors open, and negotiations begin. And if they don't like what they hear? "I'm not in the business of wasting time," says investor Rogers Healy, owner and CEO of Morrison Seger Venture Capital Partners. It can be brutal, but don't get it wrong — investors might quickly turn down pitches, but when they see something they like, they pounce. "I cannot wait to see what happens if he gets into the boardroom!" says investor Marc Randolph, co-founder of Netflix, after hearing one particularly intriguing concept.

In my podcast conversations with authors, anthropologists, creatives, and change-makers, we often delve into their personal stories, encompassing their triumphs and setbacks, as well as their spiritual practices and strategies for leading a more fulfilling life.However, today's conversation is a bit different from the norm.Today, I'm privileged to engage in conversation with Sun Yi, a distinguished personal branding expert and the visionary founder of Night Owls, an acclaimed digital agency catering to esteemed clients like Mel Robbins, Jay Shetty, Marc Randolph, and Gabby Bernstein.Despite Sun's professional collaborations with prominent figures in the self-transformation space, he boldly admits his disinterest in practices such as yoga, mantras, or the ritual of smudging his home. Yet, his online presence, characterized by candid insights, thought-provoking slogans, and astute business counsel, immediately captivated my attention, resonating deeply with me as both an occasional social media gawker and a prospective client.Upon delving further into Sun Yi's work, I eagerly enrolled in his three-month marketing mentorship program. Through this journey, I gained invaluable lessons on branding, marketing tactics, the art of storytelling, authenticity, and the significance of prioritizing both customer service and personal fulfillment.Sun Yi's multifaceted expertise extends beyond his role as an entrepreneur and storyteller; he's also a TEDx speaker and the driving force behind Night Owls and Night Owl Nation. With over 20 years of experience in digital branding, Sun has helped brands go from virtual zero revenue to $1 billion. He is passionate about teaching and has taught over 22,000+ students through his online course, The Art of Storytelling for Freelancers and Creators. In 2022, he started Night Owl Nation, a global community of entrepreneurs and creators who practice storytelling together.During our conversation, Sun Yi candidly reflects on his upbringing in Korea and subsequent immigration to the United States at the age of 10, where he endured years of bullying. These experiences shaped his resilience, reinforcing his sense of self while occasionally challenging his capacity for humility.Through the highs and lows of his professional journey, including almost losing his marriage to the love of his life Gigi, Sun Yi arrived at a profound realization: true success hinges upon establishing authentic human connections with customers. He highlights the importance of active listening, genuine care, and a service-oriented approach as the most potent tools in the realm of marketing and branding.Sun Yi's authenticity, humor, and candid anecdotes will undoubtedly leave a lasting impression, offering not just marketing and branding insights but also a sense of camaraderie amidst life's ebbs and flows. His message is clear: by embracing the present moment, we unlock the fullest potential of our lives.Love,MollyLearn more about Sun Yi and his work hereFollow Sun Yi on LinkedIn, Facebook, X (Twitter), & InstagramMolly has a new website!

Netflix pasa de ser una empresa de streaming a un movimiento en el que los consumidores de todo el mundo deciden qué ver, cuándo y cómolo ven. El futuro que imaginaron Reed Hastings y Marc Randolph dos décadas antes ha llegado. El reinado sin restricciones de la televisión por cable ha terminado.En 2019, la adquisición por parte de AT&T de la empresa matriz de HBO, Time Warner, genera aún más confusión en el futuro de HBO.
