In this episode, I sit down with Bear Handlon, Co-Founder of Born Primitive, to dive deep into the evolution of entrepreneurship, the rise of live social shopping, and the importance of staying authentic in business. We discuss how platforms like TikTok and Whatnot are reshaping commerce, and why betting on emerging trends early can create massive opportunities.

Bear shares the inspiring story behind Born Primitive, how it evolved from a grassroots idea into a thriving brand rooted in giving back to veterans and first responders. We also unpack the emotional highs and lows of entrepreneurship, from navigating failure to understanding the power of intent in storytelling and marketing.

I open up about my own journey, from shoveling snow as a kid to running a global marketing agency, and how real success lies in the grit, determination, and willingness to adapt. Whether you're an entrepreneur, a creator, or just looking for inspiration, this episode is packed with actionable advice and heartfelt stories that will leave you motivated to take action.
