In this episode of Glue Guys, Alex Smith, Shane Battier, and Ravi Gupta dive deep into the concept of aging - both professionally and personally. They explore how different industries favor youth over experience, the power of compounding growth versus explosive success, and finding sustainable urgency in your career. Shane shares his "Imperial Period" concept using music analogies, Alex discusses the challenges of staying relevant in sports media, and Ravi breaks down why consistent 20% growth beats sporadic 80% spikes. The conversation covers everything from health anxiety to maintaining authenticity as you age, choosing whose opinions matter, and balancing professional opportunities with being present for family. A honest discussion about mortality, legacy, and the wisdom that comes with getting older.
