In this episode, we showcase some of the most powerful clips from The Intentional Investor. These conversations explore how strategic thinkers, founders, investors, and creatives navigate risk, build vision, overcome adversity, and retain their humanity along the way. This highlight reel offers a taste of the depth, honesty, and storytelling that define the series.

• Why entrepreneurs are actually risk mitigators, not risk takers
• The power of mentorship and the people who fill the gaps in our lives
• What freedom means in global markets and why incentives matter
• Family stories, grit, and how small acts of kindness shape entire lives
• What true creativity is and why inventors matter more than we realize
• How to stop caring about external approval and shed status games
