Segment 1 with Ricardo Jimenez starts at 0:00.

Some people say that failure, if you can survive it, if you can move on from it, is the best teacher in small business. My first guest is Ricardo Jimenez is a Puerto Rico- and Barcelona-based writer, entrepreneur and active angel investor. Since 2014, he has performed direct investments in over 30 tech projects, including the Ethereum token.

He talks about coming back from going broke- very broke.

Segment 2 with Patrick Nelson starts at 17:05.

Within the past month, we saw an incredible example of leadership with President Joe Biden not running for president again. This was the right thing for his party and the country - not too many leaders have this self awareness.

My next guest is Patrick Nelson has gained both local and national accolades for his military service, academic career, and work as a professional speaker and trainer, including being named the inaugural NFL-Tillman Military Scholar. He is an experienced leader who spent nearly seven years in the US Army as a paratrooper and completed three combat deployments leading soldiers. His military awards include the Bronze Star Medal and the Purple Heart Medal.

He discusses that the secret sauce to leadership is actually vulnerability- a surprising observation for a military veteran.
