My guest is Dr. Jessica Kind. She is a climate change scientist, entrepreneur, and NFT illustrator currently living and working in Guatemala. Back in 2015, she and a group of friends started the fossil fuel divestment movement in Switzerland because of the risks it poses for both investors and the planet. In 2011, she also
Chase Lambin played professional baseball until he was 35 years old. During that span, he played a stint for Bobby Valentine in the Japanese Big Leagues with the Chiba Lotte Marines. When my wife & I visited Chiba in 2016, we deliberately stayed in a high-rise hotel near the stadium so we could see inside.
My guest, Florica Means, is the first polymath I’ve had on this show. She was born & raised in Romania. She escaped her home country in 1990, at the age of 36. Her story is incredible, which, even writing the word incredible, feels like I’ve cheapened the word a long time. I’ve done it justice
JR Gondeck is the sharpest financial mind I’ve had on this show. He’s a Wealth Advisor & Managing Director at The Lerner Group. Not to mention he’s been featured in Forbes, Barron’s, VP at a big bank and has 4 kiddos! JR works with families to promote intentional communication and drive collaboration between all generations.
My podcast guest today is one-of-a-kind. Those are words I’ve never used to describe any prior guest. Strong words, you might say. Deserving, I’d throw back at you. Harry Corcell is someone I’ve liked and respected since we met in late 2000s working at Idera Software. I wish we’d met sooner. Yeah, that sounds like
My guest is James Corfield, who goes by Jim. Most James’ do. I’ll admit, I’ve never understood why. Maybe it has significant meaning. But when I don’t understand something of the sort, I’ll ask myself: Is it “worth a google?” Normally, this Jim / James dilemma would qualify [as worthy of a google]. After all,
My guest is Alla Bondarenko. She’s an art historian and gemologist from St. Petersburg, Russia. She works remotely for a Russian company in Playa Del Carmen, Mexico. Her two passions are psychology & travel. Lucky for us, I’m not interested in gemology, so we mostly discuss travel & psychology. No applause please—it’s my job to
No guest will be joining me for this episode. Instead, by popular request, I’m revisiting the blog post I wrote called: 40 Pieces of Life Advice for 20-Year Old Me. Positive feedback received from the article continues to be overwhelming, in the best way possible, and much appreciated. Tens of thousands of you have read
Mr. Donald Sperier is a 96-year old World War II Veteran who retired as a mechanical engineer in his 60s. These days, he still drives, attends Catholic mass every Sunday, and drinks coffee on his porch (some days in his robe till 2pm). As a child of the Depression, Mr. Sperier has always been frugal-minded.
My guest is listener-favorite, Jerrard Parfait. Last time he was on the show—it was the most-downloaded episode of the year (2021). Parfait is someone I respect for his parenting style, relationship-building skills, compartmentalization of risk-taking (which is an underrated skill set btw). Not to mention he’s a smart man and great conversationalist. In this episode,
My guest is Tyler Aaron Johnson. He’s a former Division I student-athlete at Nicholls State University. He played a big role on a defensive front that led the nation in sacks and tackles for loss in 2017 & 2018. In Tyler’s senior season, they won the 2018 Southland Conference Championship! Tyler & I first met
