What if the secret to building billion-dollar ideas isn’t experience but curiosity?
In this episode, we dive into the mind of a founder who built 15 companies, reads over 1,000 article headlines a day, and believes AI, clean food, and remote teams will shape the future of business. From freeze-dried strawberries to why unhappy employees kill culture, this conversation is raw, real, and wildly insightful.
We explore why fast learners beat seasoned pros, how junior hires can build world-class products, and what makes a team truly unstoppable in the age of automation and AI agents. You’ll also hear his bold take on corporate life, remote work, and why your workday probably only has 4 real hours of productivity.
Tune in to learn how founders can think bigger, ship faster, and stay true to what really matters. Curiosity, culture, and creating something that truly helps others.
