In this episode of The Pulse Ox Podcast, host Eric Stopper sits down with Spencer Taylor, CEO of Medicaid Soft and lifelong entrepreneur, for a refreshingly honest exploration of business, miracles, and the messiness of spiritual searching.From Startup Struggles to Spiritual BreakthroughsEric takes a vulnerable turn in the podcast’s new direction, asking Spencer about the miracle, mystical, and spiritual moments that have shaped his entrepreneurial journey. Spencer shares powerful stories from the trenches—like the surprising series of events that helped him secure crucial funding for Medicaid Soft after relentless effort and, in his view, a little divine intervention.Why Suffering Is (Probably) Part of the ProcessTogether, Eric and Spencer dig into the pain and friction that comes from chasing ambitious goals. Drawing on the survival tale of Alexander Selkirk (the real-life “Robinson Crusoe”), Spencer reframes suffering not as something to avoid, but as an essential part of “activation”—the process of becoming and thriving, even amid struggle.Balancing Business and JoyEric opens up about recent professional losses and personal spiritual searching—from business shutdowns to walking through existential doubt. Spencer offers thoughtful perspectives on finding balance, processing stress, and recognizing the impact of hardship, even before you have time to make sense of it all.Is It All In Your Head—or Is Someone (or Something) There?As the episode winds down, the conversation hits at the heart of spiritual experience: Is the “spirit” something outside us, or is it chemistry and synapses in our brains? Spencer shares his certainty in an unseen, benevolent influence—while Eric keeps searching for answers through doubt, deconstruction, and honest questioning.Episode Highlights:A real story of business miracles and how “out-of-the-blue” moments can shape successThe philosophy of “activation” and why struggle might just be what brings us aliveCoping with unexpected setbacks and learning to process entrepreneurial stressRaw talk on faith journeys, doubt, and what it means to seek spiritual connectionWhere to Find Spencer:Connect on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/spencertaylor24/Learn about Medicaid Soft: medicaidsoft.comIf this episode resonated with you, please leave us a like on Spotify and share it with a friend who might benefit from a little entrepreneurial encouragement and some spiritual food for thought.Follow MeLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ericstopper/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ericstopper11/My Spotify Podcasthttps://open.spotify.com/show/5f2XoyL8Paw9V1K08jvAvz?si=ad06061c9b594bf9Scale Your Business With Pay-Per-Lead Laser Targeted Prospects While Only Paying For Performancehttps://www.profitibull.com/
