Introducing 177. 14 Quick Hacks For Massive Business Success with Justin Williams (REPLAY) from Millionaire University.

Follow the show: Millionaire University

Business ideas are a dime a dozen. Execution is everything. I could say that execution is the hard part, but it's really not. Coming up with an execution plan is easy as well. We live in the information age. Everything we could ever want to learn about making money and marketing and selling our product or service is literally at our fingertips.

So if ideas aren't the hard part and coming up with ways to market and sell your product or service aren't the hard part...why is it that not everyone is a deca millionaire with a thriving business that gives them the financial and life freedom they dream of?

The truth is, our brains have been programmed for survival and are not always the best at helping us get the things we really want. You combine that with the modern day, instant gratification world we live in, it's no wonder why we struggle achieving our long-term goals, the things that we truly care about in life.

But our brains are incredibly powerful as well and the modern age we live in can be a huge benefit. We just need to be aware of what we're dealing with and set up the right system for long-term success!

Do you want to know what’s happening on college campuses this election cycle? Then look no further, because JVN went to the heart of the matter in 2024 swing state, Michigan, at the University of Michigan Ford School of Public Policy. JVN got to talk to returning guest and Getting Curious MVP, Dean Celeste Watkins-Hayes, Political Science Professor (and Icon) Jenna Bednar, as well as two student leaders from the non-partisan voting organization Turn Up Turnout (TUT). TUT’s Co-Presidents, Hillary Poudeu-Tchokothe and Maurielle Courtois, break down what TUT's mission is on the University of Michigan campus, and how the university supports student voting efforts.

Celeste Watkins-Hayes is the Joan and Sanford Weill Dean of Public Policy at the University of Michigan's Gerald R. Ford School of Public Policy and founding director of the school's Center for Racial Justice. Watkins-Hayes is also the Jean E. Fairfax Collegiate Professor of Public Policy, University Diversity and Social Transformation Professor, professor of sociology, and an Anti-Racism Collaborative research and community impact fellow. 

Jenna Bednar is Professor of Political Science and Public Policy and serves in the provost’s office as the inaugural faculty director of UMICH Votes and Democratic Engagement.  She leads the campus’s voting infrastructure and is co-chair of the Year of Democracy and Civic Engagement, a campus-wide collaborative effort to elevate democracy-related research, curriculum, and engagement as part of the launch of the university’s next capital campaign.

Professor Bednar’s research focuses on how collective action builds social goods and the role that institutions play in making that collaboration possible.

Hillary Poudeu-Tchokothe, Co-President of Turn Up Turnout, is graduating in the Class of 2026 double majoring in Political Science and History.

Maurielle Courtois, Co-President of Turn Up Turnout, is a political Science major with a minor in Law, Justice, and Social Change graduating in 2025. This club is the perfect intersection of my interest in voting rights and politics.

“Everybody's doing it, but nobody's talking about it because it's so secretive.”

Alrighty, curious people, we’re getting spicy & kicking off Queer History Month with a smash (not a pass) - it’s all about gay cruising this week with professor & author, Alex Espinoza. We’re asking hard hitting questions like: Where was the first gloryhole? Were gays cruising during the Renaissance? Can U host? JK - but we do also talk about what apps like Grindr have done to this age old practice, and why the taboo of a sexual gathering space has been “a thing” all throughout history.

Alex Espinoza is a queer writer born in Tijuana, Mexico and raised in Southern California. He is the author of “Cruising: An Intimate History of a Radical Pastime” and has written essays, reviews, and stories for the New York Times Sunday Magazine, Virginia Quarterly Review, the Los Angeles Times, LitHub, and NPR. He is also the recipient of awards and fellowships from the National Endowment for the Arts, and the Macdowell Foundation. Alex is the chair of the Creative Writing department at the University of California. His latest novel, “The Sons of El Rey” came out earlier this year.
