Would you board a flight if the pilot landed safely only 99.5% of the time? Ricardo Villadiego wouldn’t—and he applies that same mindset to cybersecurity. In this high-impact episode from IT Nation Secure 2025, Joey Pinz talks with Ricardo, founder of Lumu, about precision, preparation, and protecting MSPs from EDR evasion and network breaches.
✈️ Drawing parallels between aviation and cybersecurity, Ricardo shares how checklists, training, and feedback loops apply to both flying planes and defending networks. He recalls lessons from the Miracle on the Hudson and explains why being “left of boom” isn’t optional—it’s essential.
🇨🇴 From building his first fraud prevention company in Colombia to a $2.8B exit, to scaling Lumu into a leader in network detection and response, Ricardo opens up about overcoming geographic and funding barriers as a Latino entrepreneur.
🧠 He also discusses motivation, metrics that matter (like customer retention), and how Lumu enables MSPs to self-defend in real time.

In this enriching episode, Joey Pinz meets Russell Graham, a 76-year-old fragrance entrepreneur and teacher of self-discipline. Their conversation, held at the Winthrop Market, dives into more than just scent—it explores the power of mindset, personal growth, and community upliftment.
Russell traces his aromatic journey back to the incense-rich days of the 1960s, sharing how smell became both his business and his method for connecting with people. He believes the right fragrance can change how others see you—and more importantly, how you see yourself.
But there’s more to Russell’s story. He’s also an educator who teaches classes on self-discipline and anger management, especially for those within the prison industrial complex. With a master’s degree earned at age 60 (summa cum laude), Russell proves that personal reinvention has no age limit. His motivation? Life—and his 19 grandchildren.
Whether it’s how to choose the right scent or how to stay out of trouble, Russell brings wisdom, humility, and focus to every topic.

In this impactful conversation recorded live at the Winthrop Market, Joey Pinz interviews Charles Jacobs—a 70-year-old veteran, mentor, and creator of a system he calls the “Line of Transition.” Developed during his military years and refined through mentorship with local youth, this framework helps guide people through key life stages—from finishing high school to choosing college, Job Corps, military service, or independence.
Charles shares how this life-mapping strategy has helped countless teens and young adults navigate complex decisions, especially those without mentorship at home. He recounts how he distributed hand-drawn GPA and goal charts to groups of kids in Brandon and how decades later, some still knock on his door asking for them.
With sharp insights on responsibility, social structure, and staying active in aging, Charles speaks to the power of purpose. His personal battles—including surviving cancer—add emotional weight to his belief that independence, positivity, and self-discipline are key ingredients for long-term success.

His reflections on pastoral leadership are powerful, revealing what true spiritual guidance looks like. He also opens up about his own struggles with weight and smoking, and how he’s working toward renewed health and purpose.

Joel opens up about his battle with psoriatic arthritis, the dismissive treatment he received from the traditional medical system, and how that moment became the turning point in his life.

Joel shares his wellness pillars—meditation, movement, hydration, and gratitude—and how he uses them to maintain health and help others do the same.
The episode also touches on trauma recovery, mental wellness, and how acupuncture has supported his healing after Hurricane Milton left him displaced. Joel’s motto is clear: focus on gaining health, not losing weight. If you want a dose of hard-earned wisdom, this is your episode.

In this heartfelt episode recorded live at the Winthrop Market, Joey Pinz has a powerful conversation with Michael Johnson—one filled with wisdom, culture, and legacy. Michael dives into the Gullah language, recently recognized as a distinct linguistic heritage spoken by over 250,000 people in South Carolina’s Lowcountry. Rooted in African and Caribbean traditions, Gullah isn’t just a dialect—it’s a cultural treasure that’s slowly fading without active preservation.
Michael shares why Gullah has often been misunderstood or dismissed, and how institutions like the Smithsonian and Harvard are working to document and study it. He also reflects on today’s generational divides and expresses deep concern for the future of young African-American males.
The episode concludes with personal stories of family, legacy, and love. Michael speaks candidly about what motivates him: his grandchildren and the desire to leave behind more than wealth—something deeply human and irreplaceable.
This is more than an interview—it’s a tribute to heritage, love, and purpose.
