The Reboot Podcast

As frequent listeners of the podcast can attest, a well-formed open, honest question can be a catalyst for radical self-inquiry and deep inner work. For Gino Zahnd, the founder of Cozy and Seabright, that question was, “What would I like the people that I work with to know about me that they don’t know?.” Gino, who lives with a rare genetic order called Fabry Disease, shares how one profound question asked at Reboot Bootcamp gave him the courage to share his health struggles with his team and ultimately led to a life-changing kidney donation from a colleague. Jerry chats with Gino about how things have changed since his Bootcamp experience in 2016, his decision to step down as CEO of Cozy, and his new life in Colorado. Leave us a review on Apple Podcasts!

But nothing can be changed until it is faced.” - James Baldwin In this release, Jerry sits down with Forest Richter, Co-founder and CEO of Uncrowd.io, a software platform that serves to connect underrepresented startup founders with investors.

As their conversation progresses, they shift to discuss the white savior model, why addressing systemic problems require systemic solutions, and with help from James Baldwin, Jerry reminds us all why nothing can be transformed until it’s faced.
