What if the future is the precise return to the past that we all need?

Chad Jenkins, serial entrepreneur and founder of The CoLab by SeedSpark, shares the three moments that shaped his life and his approach to business: learning the art of value creation as a child trading horses, transforming industries by noticing points of friction, and discovering that everything in life is collaboration.

From his “Creation Code” to his daily practice of gratitude, Chad shows how vision, imagination, and collaboration open doors to possibility. This conversation is about shifting from competition to creation, from scarcity to abundance, and about the limitless potential of combining your unique gifts with others.

Key Lessons & Takeaways

• The Creation Code: Collect relationships, awareness, knowledge, and experience, then combine them to create new value.
• Imagination as an advantage: In the idea economy, creativity and vision matter most.
• Collaboration as growth: Growth accelerates when we bring strengths together and share outcomes.
• Gratitude as a daily unlock: Deep, specific gratitude creates awareness and perspective that changes how you see the world.
• Make it easy to say yes: Show up in ways that create value for others, and they will open the door to you.
