  • The Ultimate Infinite-Minded CEO with Trek Bicycle CEO John Burke
    May 28 2024

    The jump from $250 million to $2 billion in revenue doesn't happen overnight. Over 25 years, John Burke transformed Trek Bikes into a global powerhouse — one mom-and-pop bike store at a time.

    The key to John's success is simple but powerful. Create value for others first, and you too shall be rewarded.

    John and I discuss why the best way to win isn't to focus on "winning," but to focus on "play," and how the principles of The Infinite Game have guided his leadership. And he tells me why creative leadership is exactly what's missing in American government.

    This...is A Bit of Optimism.

    his book, A Bold Plan For America

  • Be Necessary with war journalist Sebastian Junger
    May 21 2024

    War reporters risk their lives to document conflict. And yet, after a career living on battlefields, Sebastian Junger's closest brush with death was surviving an aneurysm.

    Sebastian's story of his sudden internal hemorrhage and making sense of what he saw while dying is the subject of his new book In My Time of Dying. As someone who usually writes as an outside observer, it's an atypical and personal exploration of death.

    I was privileged to speak with Sebastian about the fragility of life and why being necessary to others is one of our highest needs of all.

    This...is A Bit of Optimism.

  • Invention is Reinvention with entrepreneur Eric Ryan
    May 14 2024

    Starting a company from scratch isn't easy. Doing it multiple times seems downright impossible.

    Eric Ryan is one of those serial entrepreneurs. Most known as the co-founder of Method soaps, he's also the founder of Olly vitamins, Welly first aid kits, Cast jewelry, and he has more ventures planned.

    I sat down with Eric to ask him about his creative process. What follows is a conversation about serial creativity and why reinvention is the key to repeating creative success.

    This...is A Bit of Optimism.

Insights to millennials

I wasn’t aware of Sara Kuburic before this podcast but am so glad I listened. My children are millennials and so much of what Sara says resonates with my understanding of their struggles. Very helpful to me to increase my awareness of what questions and tools can help. Thanks !

Insightful!

I very much enjoy Simon and his guests. He has a wide array of topics to discuss and I appreciate his mindfulness while interviewing. I especially loved the episode with the TSA lady and the guy who did the voice of Goofy! So much fun!
