When everyone looks left, Colin Stuckert looks right. According to him, it's always been this way. From a young age, Colin felt a steady tug away from what people thought of as "normal". In school, business, and life, Colin has often found himself time after time wearing the contrarian hat. And, that's just the way he likes it.

As an entrepreneur, Colin has dabbled in just about everything, from a gym owner to a juice bar to a supplement company and an agency. His natural appetite for risk and competition may seem like second nature, but it's been reinforced in him over time through years of taking risks, going all in, and iterating along the way. As you'll hear in our podcast with Colin, his path toward success has been anything but conventional. Even for him, the origins of his intuition around spotting an opportunity aren't fully clear. Was it the years he spent as a poker player in Las Vegas? Or was it his thousands of hours logged playing the video game Age of Empires with his friends (earning him a top spot in the global rankings)? Regardless of where Colin's edge comes from, he's got it and we spend a good portion of this episode unpacking the keys to becoming serious about finding opportunities, taking risks, and building things of value for people. It's hard to not have a conversation with Colin without getting excited about the endless world of opportunities out there. If you're struggling to break through, in need of inspiration, or not sure where to start with turning the thoughts in your head into something more than just ideas, this is the podcast for you.
