No Labels, No Limits podcast

In this compelling episode of No Labels No Limits, we welcome Rick Walker—founder, investor, strategist, and author of the upcoming book 9 Steps to Build a Life of Meaning: How to Unlock Your Mind, Happiness, Power, and Your Enemies’ Demise.

From running for U.S. Congress to undergoing life-altering brain surgery, Rick’s story is anything but ordinary. By age 26, he had scaled and exited a company with 400 employees and led a nonprofit across 53 countries. Now, he chairs a $150M foundation and leads a private equity firm formed with 11 families—yet his focus has shifted from achievement to impact.

In this episode, Rick shares his powerful 9-step framework to help listeners build lives of deep purpose, drawing from ancient wisdom, spiritual insight, and his experience across the public and private sectors.

We explore:

• Why comfort is a hidden threat to growth
• What it means to choose a worthy enemy
• How men (especially ages 18–50) can rediscover discipline, direction, and meaning
• The most radical step in his framework—and how it can radically change your life
• How faith, beauty, and opposition shape true leadership

Rick doesn’t just talk strategy—he lives it. Whether you're stuck in comfort or seeking clarity, his bold, no-fluff wisdom will challenge and inspire you to take the next step toward a life of relevance.

Ever wonder what it takes to spark real innovation, navigate billion-dollar ideas, and keep your sanity in the process? Join us for this episode of No Labels, No Limits with Terry Rich—entrepreneur, former CEO of the Iowa Lottery, and global keynote speaker.

Terry has done it all: turned a struggling nonprofit zoo into the 2nd largest state attraction, gave away over $1 billion, and even sat on the panel of The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson! In this episode, Terry shares how to balance the drive for success (which he says can feel like “cocaine”) with the importance of enjoying the journey and staying true to your values.

We dive into topics like how to brainstorm without judgment, why failure is the first step to success, and how to lead with integrity and humor in uncertain times.

• How to find the balance between ambition and well-being
• Real-world lessons from turning around nonprofits & growing revenue
• Fraud prevention tips for leaders and nonprofit teams

In this insightful episode of Nonprofits Today, we’re joined by Deb Porter, founder of HOLD Business Solutions (Hearing Out Life’s Drama) and a champion of active listening as the foundation of all strong relationships—personal or professional.

Deb’s journey started with a Master’s degree in Care & Counseling and personal experiences as a caregiver and divorcee, ultimately leading her to create a practice that helps people be heard in a world that rarely listens. Her approach transforms workplace culture, leadership, and family dynamics alike.

• The CORE Framework for listening (Calm, Outcome, Relate, Empathy)
• Why only 2% of people are ever formally trained in listening
• The biggest communication pitfalls (like jumping into “fix” things)
• How listening skills can build trust and reduce stress in nonprofits
• Her special “party trick” of guessing Myers-Briggs profiles in minutes!

Deb’s Key Message: "We're taught in the American education system how to speak, but we are not taught how to listen until master's level."

In this heartfelt episode of the No Labels, No Limits podcast, host Sarah Boxx welcomes Layne The Auctionista—an unstoppable, non-binary force in fundraising who has raised over $50 million for charities while breaking barriers and building bridges. Layne openly shares their journey: from feeling isolated as a young person to finding community, living authentically, and becoming a vibrant ambassador for nonprofits.
