Entrepreneur Perspectives

David Selinger (aka “Selly”) is the founder and CEO of Deep Sentinel, a security company blending AI with live human monitoring to stop crime in real time. From Amazon to Redfin to AI security, Dave Selinger has built a real-time protection system now scaling fast with $15M in Series B funding from top investors.

In this episode, Selly breaks down how Deep Sentinel works—from crime prediction models and real-time police calls to training AI to spot danger before it happens. He explains how the company went from idea to reality, how it stacks up against traditional alarms, and why his military mentors shaped his leadership style.

This isn’t just about cameras. It’s about making AI useful, delivering outcomes that matter, and building a team with zero tolerance for compromise. You’ll also hear Selly’s thoughts on parenting, college, career detours, and how early obsessions with tech led him from Stanford to Jeff Bezos’s office to the front lines of crime prevention.

Main Topics

• How Deep Sentinel stops crime before it happens using AI and live guards
• Why traditional alarm systems fail — and what real security should look like
• Lessons from military mentors on leadership, discipline, and zero compromise
• The challenge of scaling real-time protection for homes and businesses
• How Selly’s early work at Amazon (with Jeff Bezos) and Redfin shaped his tech mindset
• Raising kids with curiosity, independence, and meaningful support
• Why the future of security depends on speed, customization, and trust

Blake Harris is the founder of Blake Harris Law, the largest exclusively offshore asset protection law firm in the United States. With a team spread across four continents, Blake has built a niche global practice helping high-net-worth individuals legally protect their assets through Cook Islands trusts and other offshore strategies.

In this episode, Blake breaks down how his firm grew by narrowing focus, embracing content creation, and rejecting the traditional image of a law office. He explains how social media became a tool for trust-building, why he abandoned domestic estate planning, and how he hires team members from unconventional places — including front desks, social DMs, and international job boards.

This isn’t just about trusts. It’s about creating leverage, working remotely before it was trendy, and building a brand clients feel like they already know before the first phone call. You’ll also hear Blake’s thoughts on confidence, criticism, client education, and why offshore asset protection isn’t just for the ultra-wealthy — it’s smart business.

Main Topics

• The leap from traditional estate planning to niche offshore asset protection
• Why building trust online can be more powerful than in-person meetings
• How Blake hires global talent through unconventional methods
• Dispelling myths around offshore trusts and legal asset protection
• The role of social media in modern law and client acquisition
• Why endurance and content consistency matter more than perfection
• What business owners misunderstand about narrowing focus

Scott Sheridan is the CEO of Tastytrade, a trading platform and brokerage he co-founded with longtime partner Tom Sosnoff. Together with their amazing team, they’ve built a trading and media empire using a counterintuitive strategy: giving away their best content for free.

In this episode, Scott explains how their “goodwill model” works — from free education on Tastylive to transparent customer service — and why betting everything on authentic content paid off. You’ll also hear his thoughts on broken systems, the future of education, and what separates genuine content from noise.

This isn’t Scott’s first rodeo. He and Tom previously built Thinkorswim — you’ve probably heard of it — which was acquired by TD Ameritrade (now part of Charles Schwab). Today, Tastytrade serves thousands of active traders while Tastylive produces 10 hours of live market content daily, has 447K+ and growing subscribers on YouTube, and their videos regularly get hundreds of thousands of views! Tastytrade is the brokerage platform where viewers can actually execute trades — turning educational content into trading customers.

Conifer co-founder Ankit Somani left Google to build something with more heart — and fewer rare-earth magnets.

Backed by a $20M seed round, Conifer is making electric motors that are clean, compact, and don’t rely on China-controlled materials. In this conversation, Ankit talks about the problem they’re solving, what it’s like building real hardware in a software-driven world, and why he’s telling his kids not to go to college.

We also get into the mindset side of entrepreneurship: parenting in the age of AI, staying grounded through spiritual practice, hiring for “high agency,” and handling the daily chaos of startup life.
