I sit down with New York Times bestselling writer Bill Blankschaen to unpack how your real breakthrough starts when you start with your story, for real, and we get into leaving safe gigs, choosing the calling, and building StoryBuilders to help leaders craft books and content that actually move people.

We talk mindset, faith as action, the hero’s journey, the normalcy trap, and how motion creates options. Bill shares the framework behind Your Story Advantage, from finding a meaningful message to multiplying it through books and platforms, then monetizing it in the creator economy. I share my own leap moments, from Vietnam to film sets, and how answering the call opened wild doors.

If you want a life that feels aligned, if you want clarity on your strengths, and if you are ready to tell your story with courage and cash flow in mind, press play and let’s build.

I sat down with leadership coach Hugo Breton to talk about one of the hardest jumps in any career, going from being the best individual contributor on the team to actually leading one. We got real about the gap between management and leadership, learning to delegate, building trust through authenticity, and why communication is everything.

Hugo shared how great leaders set a clear North Star, keep their teams aligned like a perfect LEGO build, and create systems that prevent burnout instead of causing it. We even dove into how creative teams, from game studios to media companies, can use Pixar-style feedback loops to level up together.

If you’re ready to stop micromanaging and start scaling, this episode is your cheat code for leadership.

In this podcast, I sit down with science communicator Erin Winick Anthony, formerly MIT Tech Review and NASA, now founder of Steam Power Media, to design the next space station from the ground up.

We unpack how modular stations get to orbit, what materials and shielding protect crews from radiation and micrometeoroids, and why robots like AstroBee will take routine tasks off astronaut schedules. We dig into microgravity science, fire that burns as a sphere, 3D printing human tissues, hydroponics and aeroponics for tomatoes and lettuce, and the very real upgrades to sleep, food, and even toilets. We dream up a space pinball machine and a science arcade, talk about space hotels for families, and what kids need to train for microgravity. Erin shares lessons from zero-g flights, Meow Wolf tech art, and NASA’s Benefits for Humanity, plus how to make complex science engaging on social media.

If you care about ISS replacement, STEM education, and inspiring the next generation, this episode is for you.
