Have you ever held back from chasing your dream because of fear — fear of failure, fear of getting it wrong, or fear of what others might think? You're not alone. In fact, Gary Waldon shares in this episode that 60% of people never follow their dreams because of fear. Gary knows a thing or two about reinvention. With over 46 jobs under his belt, from topless waiter to lecturer, startup founder to CEO advisor, his “give it a go” approach has shaped a life full of transformation. Now a transformational change specialist and bestselling author of Mastering the Art of Reinvention, Gary helps people and organisations reinvent themselves when they feel stuck. In this episode, we dive into Gary's brilliant “boss of the brain” analogy, the tension between foresight and blindsides when it comes to change, and why sometimes it takes hitting rock bottom to force reinvention. For me, the most powerful reminder was that reinvention is never one-size-fits-all. The art of reinventing yourself is unique to each of us, but it's also one of the most empowering ways to move forward when life feels stuck. Key Episode Takeaways: Gary's simple “boss of the brain” analogy to explain the difference between brain and mind. Why 60% of people never follow their dreams, and how fear of failure is at the root of it. How foresight versus blindsides impact our ability to reinvent, and why catalysts matter. Reinvention is deeply personal, but it's always possible when you're willing to try. About the Guest: Gary Waldon is a transformational change specialist who has helped many people and organisations reinvent themselves using his practical and engaging approach. He has had over 46 different jobs throughout his life, including being a topless waiter, lecturer, teacher, start up founder and CEO advisor, along with earning two master's degrees in business and finance. Gary has played significant transformational roles across multiple industries including health, technology, finance, consulting, education, and aviation. His ‘give it a go' approach to life has seen him featured in media widely. He is also the best-selling author of the 2020 book release, Sort Your Sh!t Out.

Reinventing your life or career starts with reflection and conversation. Making the leap — to a new career, to the next stage of a relationship, or to a different version of yourself — requires honest communication. For Ilana Golan, being “leap-ready” requires that we answer three questions: Why me? Why this? And why now?Golan knows all about these leaps, as her career spans corporate executive roles, entrepreneurship, and even F-16 flight instruction. As the founder of Leap Academy and host of the Leap Academy Podcast, she helps equip others to navigate their own personal and professional reinventions. As she says, “It's really about communicating from the vision,” which starts as an inside job. “Why is this the right thing for me right now? You convince yourself first, because when you're [at] peace with what you're trying to do, it's a lot easier to convince others.”In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Golan and host Matt Abrahams explore how honest communication shapes every stage of reinvention, whether that's listening to the signals your mind and body are sending you — like “sleepwalking through life” and imagining something more — or articulating your pivot in ways that create understanding rather than resistance. Wherever you hope to leap, Golan's insights show how to communicate through change with confidence and clarity.Episode Reference Links:Ilana GolanLeap Academy Podcast | Leap AcademyEp.187 Experimenting, Failing, and Finding Your Job Fit - Catalyze Your CareerEp.147 Disrupt Yourself: How to Innovate Who You Are and Become Who You Can Be Connect:Premium Signup >>>> Think Fast Talk Smart PremiumEmail Questions & Feedback >>> hello@fastersmarter.ioEpisode Transcripts >>> Think Fast Talk Smart WebsiteNewsletter Signup + English Language Learning >>> FasterSmarter.ioThink Fast Talk Smart >>> LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTubeMatt Abrahams >>> LinkedInChapters:(00:00) - Introduction (01:39) - Breaking Barriers & Career Patterns (02:18) - Waking Up to Change (03:42) - Signs It's Time for a Pivot (06:45) - The Rise of Portfolio Careers (10:17) - Communicating Career Leaps (13:29) - Finding Clarity in Reinvention (20:01) - The Final Three Questions (22:56) - Conclusion *****Thank you to our sponsors.

What if “wealth” wasn't about hitting some magic number in your bank account… but instead about clarity, cash flow, and confidence to live a life you never have to retire from?That's exactly what this week's guest, Brian Skrobonja, has helped thousands of high-net-worth entrepreneurs and business owners figure out over the last 30 years.Brian is a nationally recognized wealth advisor, a Forbes Top 10 podcast host, and the creator of the WealthSync Process—a system that goes way beyond rates of return to align your money with your life's bigger purpose.We dive deep into:Why most people define “wealth” the wrong wayHow to think about passive income beyond real estate or investmentsThe psychology of purpose after a business sale or big transitionThe tax blind spots that cost founders millions (and how to avoid them)If you're an entrepreneur who's built wealth, sold a business, or are staring down a transition—you cannot afford to miss this conversation.KEY INSIGHTS & TAKEAWAYS:Wealth Isn't a Number — It's Purpose-Driven Most people chase net worth goals… but often end up miserable. Brian reframes wealth as “funding your purpose,” not just padding your account.Cash Flow is King Assets alone don't equal freedom. Everything should be measured against one question: “How does this affect cash flow?”The Myth of Retirement You can retire from a job—but you don't want to retire from life. Align your money with activities, goals, and impact that keep you engaged and alive.Tax Blind Spots that Burn Millions Business exits, 401Ks, and charitable giving are often mishandled. The difference between structuring a deal before or after signing could be millions saved.The WealthSync Process Brian's proprietary system ties together lifestyle goals, business exits, philanthropy, tax planning, and legacy so your money actually funds your life.TIME STAMPS:[00:00:00] Introduction – Why “clarity, confidence & cash flow” matter more than chasing returns.[00:03:10] The #1 money mistake most couples and founders make.[00:05:51] Brian's backstory: from Croatian family work ethic to building a financial legacy.[00:08:56] The mindset shift from working harder → building passive income.[00:10:38] Introducing the WealthSync Process: aligning money with purpose.[00:14:07] Why $10M net worth can still leave people miserable.[00:16:36] Helping founders after business exits: the “Monday after the sale” question.[00:23:58] CPA blind spots, charitable strategies, and avoiding tax disasters.[00:29:27] Assets to Income: how to make your money actually work for you.[00:31:27] Everything comes back to cash flow.[00:32:33] Build a life you don't have to retire from.In this episode, I sit down with nationally recognized wealth advisor Brian Skrobonja to break down why the traditional wealth path is broken, how passive income actually works, and why wealth isn't a number—it's about clarity, confidence, and cash flow.If you're planning a business exit, sitting on a tax-deferred fortune, or just want to create reliable cash flow—you need this conversation.
“I became an American & said goodbye to them [the KGB].” – Jack Barsky Sounds like the opening line of a spy thriller. Except this one's real. For a decade, Jack lived undercover in the U.S. as a KGB agent. His mission wasn't excitement. No tuxedos. No martinis. Just the discipline to disappear — and never get caught. And he did it so well that he not only avoided capture — he built a whole new life. A college valedictorian. A corporate exec. A family man no one suspected. Until one day, the story broke on 60 Minutes. That's when Jack faced the choice every entrepreneur knows too well: – Start over. – Reinvent yourself. – Risk failing again & again. He wrote a book that flopped until he rewrote it from scratch. He gave speeches so bad he wanted to “jump in a lake”… and kept at it until Microsoft put him on stage. He built a business that went nowhere — and had the guts to kill it when no one showed up. Every failure became fuel. Every dead end, a redirection. This isn't just a peek into espionage. It's a raw look at resilience, reinvention, & the grit it takes to survive when the plan collapses. Winston Churchill said it best: “Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts.” Connect with him on LinkedIn
You were an R&D exec, an engineer, a builder of real things. And now? You're told to watch Wheel of Fortune and sit still. That's nonsense. You've still got curiosity. You've still got edge. You're finally free to mess around, screw up, and chase what made you excited in the first place. Reinvent your toaster. Obsess over headlights. Start that blog about Lego men.No one's stopping you now. So… why the hell not?

Robert Kittridge spent 30 years as a fire chief, running toward disaster and saving lives. But beneath the uniform was a man running from a deeply violent past, a trauma that secretly fueled his entire career as a rescuer. When the weight of conformity became too much, he embarked on a radical journey that forced him to burn his old life to the ground.In this conversation, former Fire Chief Robert Kittridge reveals how a breakdown led to a profound breakthrough. He shares the story of leaving a prestigious leadership organization, giving away all his suits, and diving headfirst into the world of Human Design and plant medicine to rediscover his true self. This is a story for anyone who feels trapped in a role they were conditioned to play and is searching for the courage to find true authenticity.** timestamps/chapters **00:00 - The Hook: A Violent Childhood01:25 - From Mechanic to 30 Years as a Fire Chief07:24 - The Emotional Toll of Being a First Responder10:18 - How Childhood Trauma Shapes Your Career15:19 - Why I Left The John Maxwell Leadership Team19:24 - The Turning Point: Discovering Human Design & Plant Medicine25:13 - What Is Human Design?

What's the fastest way to hit your goals in business? My client, Vincent Holthouse, will tell you it's not trial and error. It's not grinding away for years hoping something clicks. It's simple: find the people who already have the results you want—and model what works. In this 30-minute episode, Vincent breaks down how he applied that exact philosophy. He runs a thriving high-ticket coaching program in real estate, and once he decided to invest in mentoring instead of trying to figure it all out alone, his business scaled fast. This conversation is for anyone who's sick of spinning their wheels, tired of “figuring it out,” and ready to shortcut years of frustration by following a proven path.

What if I told you there's a way to pull $10,000–$50,000 of tax-free money out of your business every year—without working harder, changing your business model, or hiring a single new person?Sounds crazy, right? But it's been hiding in plain sight inside the IRS code for over 50 years.In this week's episode of Capability Amplifier, I sit down with my friend Nathaniel Ely (co-founder of TheAugustaRule.com) to break down how the Augusta Rule works, why most business owners are leaving serious money on the table, and how to make sure you don't miss out.I'll also share how I personally got a $40,000 tax-free check this year—and why I kicked myself when I realized I had missed out on hundreds of thousands of dollars in past years.KEY INSIGHTS & TAKEAWAYS:The Augusta Rule, Explained Simply A 14-day tax loophole that allows business owners to rent their residence(s) to their business, tax-free.Why Most CPAs Get It Wrong 80–90% of deductions fail because of sloppy documentation. If it's not written down, it doesn't exist.Multiple Homes = Multiple Opportunities Your vacation home, second home, or even your RV may qualify. The IRS defines “residence” more broadly than you think.Real Case Studies From a modest ranch in Ohio ($6,700 in savings) to multi-home entrepreneurs pulling in over $100K tax-free every year.The 10 Conditions for Compliance We cover the step-by-step checklist to keep everything bulletproof—and why this strategy only works if you follow the rules.Done-For-You Solutions Nathaniel's team built software + services to make compliance effortless. They're on a mission to put $1B back into entrepreneurs' pockets by 2030.TIME STAMPS:[00:00:00] What Is the Augusta Rule?Nathaniel explains how business owners can rent their home to their own company—14 days tax-free.[00:01:56] My $40K Check (and $360K Mistake)Mike shares his personal experience of saving—and losing—hundreds of thousands by not applying the rule earlier.[00:04:14] Why It's Called the Augusta RuleThe Masters golf tournament origins and how wealthy homeowners lobbied Congress to add this provision to the code.[00:06:42] From Tax Bills to Tax BreakthroughsNathaniel's personal journey of learning, failing, and finally systemizing the Augusta Rule.[00:12:40] Case Study: The “Normie Home” in OhioHow an average homeowner saves ~$6,700 annually with zero behavior change.[00:16:21] Multiple Homes, Big ReturnsHow vacation homes, rentals, and even RVs qualify under the IRS definition of “residence.”[00:18:37] Case Study: $126K in Tax-Free RentThree beach houses in Mexico equal $46K in real tax savings.[00:20:00] Case Study: $224K Rent = $118K Cash BackA California entrepreneur uses three properties to generate six-figure tax-free income.[00:22:46] The 10 Conditions for ComplianceFrom rental agreements to meeting length, the checklist that makes it all audit-proof.[00:32:11] How Easy Is It Really?Why Nathaniel's platform + EA support can make this a 5-minute-per-meeting task.[00:38:28] Free Tools & ResourcesThe Augusta Rule calculator, deduction guide, and masterclass—all available at TheAugustaRule.com/save.If you hate writing checks to the IRS, this is one of the biggest “money on the sidewalk” opportunities I've ever covered on this show.

Wade Foster, co-founder and CEO of Zapier, joins Henrik and Jeremy to talk about how AI is changing the company from the inside out. He shares the moment Zapier declared a “code red” on AI and the steps they took to turn urgency into action — encouraging more experiments, removing tolerance for inaction, and celebrating wins along the way.Wade discusses his own AI use cases, the importance of internal examples in driving adoption, and why duplication of efforts can speed up learning. He reflects on the leadership challenge of guiding a 14-year-old company through cultural transformation, balancing productivity gains with employee well-being, and preparing for a future where AI agents work with each other.This episode offers a clear, practical look at what it takes to embed AI into an established organization, and keep it moving forward.Key Takeaways:A “code red” can be a catalyst for real change.When Zapier declared a company-wide “code red” on AI, it wasn't just a signal. It pushed people to experiment more, act faster, and rethink established ways of working.Culture is harder to change than technology.The real challenge wasn't getting the tools in place, it was getting people to use them. Zapier's approach focused on rewarding curiosity, sharing internal examples, and removing tolerance for inaction.Duplication can drive innovation.Instead of centralizing all AI projects, Zapier encouraged parallel efforts. When multiple teams tackled similar problems, they often uncovered different and better solutions more quickly.Leadership in the AI era is about speed and sustainability.Henrik and Jeremy highlight how Wade's approach blends urgency with care for the people doing the work. Productivity gains matter, but so does avoiding burnout and making AI adoption last.Zapier: Zapier: Automate AI Workflows, Agents, and AppsLinkedIn: Wade Foster | LinkedIn00:00 Setting Company Culture: Rewards and Tolerances00:43 The Rise of AI at Zapier02:19 Wade's Social Media Presence05:06 Challenges in AI Adoption07:32 Personal Use of AI: Health Tracking10:21 Business Applications of AI13:34 Automating Repetitive Tasks20:35 Voice of Customer Program24:26 Customer Brief Generator33:27 Code Red: Embracing AI35:32 Subtle Encouragement and the Impact of GPT-436:38 Code Red: A Turning Point36:51 Embracing AI: From Fear to Familiarity38:13 The Journey to AI Adoption39:11 Challenges in Organizational Change40:41 Managing Resistance and Encouraging Experimentation43:55 Building a Remote Culture with AI46:29 The Future of Work and AI48:33 Agent-to-Agent Communication51:32 The Importance of Duplication in Innovation56:43 Final Thoughts

In this powerful episode of Lessons from a Quitter, I'm joined by Ysabelle Allard for a vulnerable conversation about what it really takes to transform your life from the inside out.

In this powerful and eye-opening episode, Number 160 of the Fit Mother Project Podcast, Dr. Anthony Balduzzi is joined by naturopathic physician Dr. Sharon Stills, a leading expert in women's hormone health and a passionate advocate for transforming how we approach aging and menopause. Dr. Stills shares how she went from aspiring pediatrician to menopause expert—thanks to one curious patient and a Suzanne Somers book—and how that moment sparked a lifelong mission to help women reclaim vitality in their second act of life.Dr. Stills challenges the outdated narrative that menopause is a disease to be feared or managed. Instead, she offers a "pro-aging" perspective, describing menopause as a sacred transition that can be optimized with the right tools. She dives deep into the science and clinical application of hormone replacement therapy (HRT), explaining why most women are being underserved by conventional approaches—and how individualized care using 24-hour wet urine testing, bioidentical hormones, and strategic supplementation can unlock vibrant energy, libido, and mental clarity.Listeners will learn why standard blood tests miss the mark, how improper supplementation (like DIM and calcium d-glucarate) can backfire, and why topical hormone creams need to be applied to the mucosal tissues—not the skin—for proper absorption. Dr. Stills also debunks myths around estrogen, explains the vital role of estriol in preventing cancer and inflammation, and shares inspiring case studies of women who got their lives back—even after decades of suffering.Whether you're in your 40s, 50s, or beyond, this conversation will reframe how you see aging—and give you real tools to thrive physically, emotionally, and spiritually.Key Takeaways:Menopause is a natural transition, not a diseasePro-aging is a mindset: support aging instead of fighting itEstriol (E3) is anti-inflammatory and protective, not dangerousStandard blood tests often miss hormone fluctuations and metabolites24-hour wet urine testing offers the most accurate hormone insightsIndividualized treatment is essential—no one-size-fits-all protocolsHormone creams must be applied to mucosal tissue for effectivenessDIM and calcium-d-glucarate can be harmful if not neededHormones impact brain, bones, gut, libido, and overall vitalityHormone replacement therapy (HRT) can work in as little as 3–4 weeksTransdermal patches often contain toxins and are poorly metabolizedDHEA is best delivered orally in liposomal formWomen in their 70s and 80s can still start HRT and experience huge benefitsSymptoms like joint pain, insomnia, and brain fog often resolve quickly with proper HRT“Sort of better” isn't good enough—optimize to feel amazingWhere to Discover More with Dr. Sharon Stills:Website: https://drstills.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drsharonstillsFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/REDHotMedicineBiographical Information on Dr. Sharon Stills:Dr. Sharon Stills, a licensed Naturopathic Medical Doctor with over two decades of dedicated service in transforming women's health has been a guiding light for perimenopausal and menopausal women, empowering them to reinvent, explore, and rediscover their vitality and zest for life.

Aaron Tartakovsky is the Co-Founder and CEO of Epic Cleantec, a leading startup revolutionizing onsite water reuse and sustainability in the built environment. His journey blends bold innovation with a legacy of science and policy. Raised by a Soviet-trained rocket scientist father, Aaron grew up with cutting-edge engineering in the household. Aaron went on to shape federal policy before co-founding Epic Cleantec, initially inspired by tackling a lighter challenge: after his co-founder received a ticket for not clearing up his dog's poop, they imagined a device to disintegrate waste. That idea evolved, and work with the Gates Foundation's Reinvent the Toilet Challenge led to Epic's current mission. Today, Aaron leads Epic Cleantec to deploy water reuse systems in buildings, turning wastewater into reusable water, reducing costs, carbon, and reliance on aging infrastructure. Their clients include Salesforce Tower in San Francisco and other high-profile developments committed to water resilience and sustainability. He's a vocal advocate for blending smart regulation, government partnerships, and technology to drive global water resilience.(01:57) - Aaron's Journey to Epic Cleantec(05:51) - How Epic Cleantec Revolutionizes Water Recycling for Buildings(08:36) - The Gates Foundation & Public Reception(14:10) - Real Estate's Water Infrastructure Challenges(18:15) - Scaling Epic Cleantec(21:26) - Feature: Blueprint - The Future of Real Estate - Register for 2025: The Premier Event for Industry Executives, Real Estate & Construction Tech Startups and VC's, at The Venetian, Las Vegas on Sep. 16th-18th, 2025.(28:39) - Navigating Regulations and Politics(36:29) Collaboration Superpower: Aaron's grandfather
