What does it look like to become obsessed with... a city? A mission? A data set? This week, I’m talking with Nate Watson, CEO of Contemporary Analysis and Executive Chair of the Omaha Data Science Academy, who’s not just helping companies use AI and data—he’s helping Omaha reimagine what’s possible.

We get into:

  • how Nate went from rock-obsessed geologist to sales guy to data-driven CEO,
  • why he’s betting big on Omaha’s future,
  • and how he’s helping businesses of every size get smarter with data.


We also talk about balance, burnout, and what self-care looks like when your obsession fuels everything you do.

And yes, we get nerdy about Omaha’s restaurant scene, childhood adventures, and the power of painting by numbers. You’ll walk away inspired to take your vision further—and make sure your obsession leaves an impact.
