Sarry Ibrahim, founder of Financial Asset Protection, joins Sheiny to discuss his passion for helping clients fully understand the in's and out's when it comes to financial planning, asset protection, and tax advantages. We go into depth behind starting his own business after learning about the Infinite Banking Concept (also known as the Bank On Yourself Concept) as he saw this as an opportunity to save retirement accounts, real estate properties, and businesses from market failures and other risks. We discuss how he's put together a wealth management strategy, how he would be utilizing these strategies if he consulted clients in the 25-35 age range, and understanding his goals for the business moving forward. We go deeper into the importance of leveraging his knowledge and work through other mediums, such as his podcast, "Thinking Like a Bank" and who he looks up to and continues to learn from within the wealth management industry.

Beyond the Profile is a podcast where we discuss hard-hitting career stories with professionals of all ages. We’re looking to get into the nitty gritty when it comes to breaking down our guests' career paths, why did they choose the industry/company they work for, where did their passions come from, and what are they looking to do to make a difference in the future for the work they’re involved in. This is a chance for all of us to learn and potentially implement how these guests go about their business, decision-making, and ultimately how they found a love for their craft.

Chante Harris, Sr. Manager of Venture for ClimateTech at SecondMuse and Co-Founder of Women of Color Collective in Sustainability (WOC/CS), joins Sheiny to discuss her passion to launch better solutions, initiatives, and technologies when it comes to urban/social innovation, building sustainable cities, and cross-sector collaboration. We go into depth behind her love for driving long-term growth for companies through successful go-to-market and social impact strategies, particularly when it comes to Climate Tech. We discuss the work she's done to formulate WOC/CS and the founding genesis her and her co-founder have had to create a mission to amplify the voices and presence of WOC who historically have been under-looked, underutilized, and unrecognized by the sustainability industry. We go deeper into her thoughts on the proposed Biden Infrastructure Plan, how it affects the work she is doing now, and why she felt stepping away from the policy side of the aisle was more beneficial in both the short and long term when it comes to sustainability and the Climate Tech industry.

JonRobert "Tat" Tartaglione, founder of Influence 51, joins Sheiny to discuss his passion for using his expertise of psychology and behavioral science to figure out what moves people. We go into depth behind starting his own business surrounding the art of influence and helping clients in the corporate, political, legal, nonprofit, and restaurant domains leverage insights from psychology to build more successful influence strategies.

We go deeper into examples and insights from his 5 Principles of Influence such as how liberals and conservatives differ more than just inside the voting booth, knowing from a young age that working under someone would not work out, and his willingness to fail and learn from his mistakes that lead him to consult and advise for some of the largest companies in the world.

Welcome to the launch of an exciting new series we're putting together under the Beyond the Profile umbrella - Side Hustle Series (SHS)! We look to interview people who are currently making efforts to go hard on their side hustle in hopes to create it into a full time job. 

Today's Side Hustle Spotlight is on Ryan Dunn, a podcaster for Destination: Different and founder of the newsletter, Strange Brains! We dive deep into his side hustle and love for creating content that'll make you want to stay weird. He interviews creators, entrepreneurs, adventurists, and everyone in between. We talk through his creation of the podcast, how he utilizes marketing techniques from his full time job to create all sorts of content, the grind that goes into running a podcast (from booking, recording, editing, marketing, etc.), and where he's found this love and drive to keep going with this show when in reality sponsors are not all storming to his front door...yet.

Blake Sorensen, founder and CEO of Blake's Seed Based, joins Sheiny to discuss his passion for intertwining entrepreneurship and allergy-friendly snacks to build a brand and product that is fun, carefree, and something everyone can eat and enjoy. We go into depth behind starting his own business from the ground up after pitching the idea in his social entrepreneurship MBA course, growing up with a deathly nut-allergy and being known on and off the football field as the "EpiPen Guy", and the importance of creating a snack brand for people with any type of food intolerance. We go deeper into how his career as a linebacker for the University of Wisconsin helped him in the business world, the pivot the business had to make to focus more on direct to consumer right after launching in over 1,000 retailers when the pandemic hit, and the hardest lessons he has had to learn when growing this brand in a crowded CPG industry.
