Send us a textJR Strave JR joins us to share his wealth of knowledge on serial entrepreneurship and his journey from combat veteran to whistleblower to shed light on mental healthcare for veterans.

Back in 2011, I took my first business class in college. I had heard about this professor who had a really innovative way of teaching inside of the business school at ColumbiaAfter taking that class, I ended up having quite a few classes with him and he ended up becoming my Advisor for a little while. It was in 2012 during my junior where I took my first entrepreneurial class with him, created my first business plan and learned that Monopoly actually could be tied back to business (my family strongly dislikes playing with me now). Some of my favorite classes ever were taught by today's guest and I consider him my first mentor in the business world. The fact that we are sitting together now on my podcast over a decade later, it feels very surreal and I'm grateful. My guest today is Dr. Sean Siebert. Dr. Siebert's Bio:Dr. Sean Siebert's breadth of knowledge and experience, combined with his story-telling ability, make him a much-sought-after speaker, panelist, educator, and consultant. His messages resonate with audiences, leaving them both motivated and committed to embrace a future of endless possibilities. Currently, Siebert has authored the award-winning books, Fighting The Good Fight and Conversations on Grief.Additionally, Siebert serves as a contracted subject-matter-expert (SME) for the Institute for Intergovernmental Research (IIR). His work in the industries of education; workforce development; entrepreneurship; and economic development continues to be recognized across the United States and around the world. Dr. Siebert has been honored by the Missouri Association of School Administrators (MASA) with the prestigious Friend of Education Award for his work with school districts across the State of Missouri. Dr. Siebert was the national recipient of the National Association of Development Organizations Innovation Award, for his work that helps communities, and individuals, to combat the mental health and opioid epidemics. Siebert has also been honored as the Entrepreneur of the Year, Citizen of the Year, Faculty Member of the Year, and he was the recipient of the Exclamation Award for Excellence. Siebert has been recognized on numerous occasions by the Missouri Department of Economic Development as he was a featured keynote speaker at the Governor's Conference on Economic Development in 2015, 2016, 2018, and 2023. In May 2024, Siebert's work was identified by the United States Department of Justice (DOJ), the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP), as a best practice for addiction and recovery that leads to hope and resilience. Connect with Dr. Sean Siebert:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/sean.siebert.7 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dr-sean-siebert-23109746/ Twitter: @DrSeanSiebertWebsite: www.50ByFriday.com Builders of Authority:FREE Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/7685392924809322 BOA Mastermind: https://buildauthority.co/order-form-mastermind GoHighLevel Extended 30-day Free Trial w/TONS of Personal Branding Bonuses: http://gohighlevel.com/adammcchesney

(2:43) • I'm always trying to find something that nobody else can figure out, then we try to figure it out. (11:55) • I don't care who you are, what kind of grades you made, how smart you think you are – if you focus 100% of your effort on one thing, you're gonna do great things in that area. (20:33) • I was one of the few guys that never quit. (33:37) • I was a 29 year old public company CEO, the youngest one on the street by probably 30 years at that time. (38:17) • The fun was born to focus on early stage bio-tech, early stage drug development, and medical devices. (38:58) • It's the small companies that invent these great things that the big companies buy. They need the money so bad that they're not all willing to sign a development agreement. (44:02) • 90% of the most promising projects don't make it to market. (47:52) • Great things [we try to develop], if they fail, we move on and try to do another great thing. (59:31) • Product in development:  EON Laser, a robotic body contouring device – AI guided. (60:53) • The dermatology space may be the first specialty to be replaced by AI. (62:59) • They do have mini X-Rays now that are really safe for small body parts, you could actually have it at home.

It eliminates liposuction. (70:36) • Anti-aging Treatment: Your brain is wired to think that it should repair everything to your peak reproductive year. For men, it's 22 years of age and for women, it's 32 years of age. In the last hundred years, we've gone from an average life expectancy of 35 or 40 to 80, because health care has advanced. The magic is to trick your brain into thinking that you have not hit your peak reproductive mode. (74:03)

Have you been bitten by the start-up bug? Wander Beauty's CEO and Co-Founder, Divya Gugnani, certainly was. When it comes to starting companies, Divya's infectious enthusiasm is hard not to catch. What started as an accidental venture into entrepreneurship, turned into five companies, two of which Divya runs today. While Divya originally worked in finance, she quickly discovered she was addicted to starting up businesses after the formation of her first company. As an investor and entrepreneur with more than 20 years of experience, Divya attributes her success to her eternal optimism and penchant for risk-taking.  So what's next for Divya?

Today on the show, Judi hosts the Emmy nominated Costume Designer, serial entrepreneur, and fellow Arizonan, Jessica Wenger McPhaul. Just like her father, Jessica eats, sleeps and dreams entrepreneurship. After being fired on the spot as a costume designer for “buying the wrong thing”—when the right thing literally wasn't available in stores—Jessica recognized the market need for nude lingerie in all shapes, sizes and colors. It took years before she and her husband finally built up the courage to launch what we now know and love to be Naked Rebellion. In this conversation, we hear all about the tools Jessica uses to successfully manage four businesses and three kids, as well as what it looks like to build an inclusive company in the modern world. Today on Yes, And:Painting cacti between ‘vintage' women: How Judi and Jessica metWhat Jessica learned from her dad's entrepreneurial highs and lowsStarting a company with your spouseJessica's deep commitment to preparationWhy you should hire people in their zones of genius—even when you can do the work yourself  This show is supported by:AdvoCare® | Use Code “FeelBetter15” Resources:Get on the Speaker School WaitlistGet the Fearboss Boss Project WorkbookGet the print edition goal-focused Possibility Planner OR download it digitally here for FREEConnect with Jessica:Instagram: @jessicawengermcp | @naked.rebellionWebsite: nakedrebellion.com | jessicawenger.comConnect with Judi:Book: Fear Is My HomeboyJudi on Instagram: @judiholler Judi on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/JudiHollerFanPage Website: judiholler.com Email: hello@judiholler.comCheck out HAUS of Holler on Amazon for Judi's favorite products!This show is produced by Soulfire Productions
