How does the wisdom and resilience of past generations shape our ability to succeed in today's rapidly changing world?
In a world of rapid change and easy access to information, the younger generations often feel disconnected from the resilience forged by their predecessors. This disconnect raises important questions about how we can bridge the gap and keep the lessons of the past in mind as we move forward.
Leonard Brody, a prominent entrepreneur, venture capitalist, and author, shares his insights on the challenges faced by today’s generation, the importance of resilience, and the role of entrepreneurs in shaping a better future.
He opens up about his own journey and the ways in which his family’s experiences have shaped his worldview and approach to business. Leonard also discusses how the lack of direct experience with global-scale trauma in younger generations might affect their resilience and perspectives.
In this episode of The Greatness Machine, Darius is joined by Leonard Brody to talk about the modern entrepreneurial landscape and the importance of bridging the gap between economic realities and personal resilience. The conversation touches on the role of entrepreneurs in addressing societal challenges and mitigating the risks of radicalization and economic disenfranchisement.

How far would you go to achieve your dreams? Are you willing to burn the boats and give it your all to get to where you want to be?
Matt Higgins, an American entrepreneur, author, and Co-Founder and CEO of RSE Ventures, joins us on the Greatness Machine to talk about how he went from scraping gum off the chairs in a New York City McDonald's to becoming a successful entrepreneur, investor, and media executive.
Despite starting from humble beginnings, his hard work and determination led him to executive positions at major sports organizations, including the New York Jets and the NHL. In fact, Matt drew inspiration from his tough childhood in writing “Burn the Boats: Toss Plan B Overboard and Unleash Your Full Potential.”
In his book, Matt explains how the strategy of fully committing to a goal and eliminating the option of retreat can create a sense of urgency and focus, driving individuals toward achieving their goals. It provides valuable insights and strategies for overcoming fear and uncertainty and taking bold action toward achieving one's goals.
In this episode, Matt and Darius talk about the importance of finding our leverageable assets and using them to our advantage, the principle of compounding, the effects of family caregiving, and a lot more.

What if you had the power to save a life with just one decision?
Imagine being given the opportunity to offer someone a second chance, to become a lifeline in their darkest hour. This act of generosity goes beyond mere kindness—it is a courageous decision that changes lives.
As the only organ in the human body that can regenerate itself, the liver allows living donors to donate part of their liver while still maintaining their own full liver function.
Joining us on The Greatness Machine is David Galbenski, an individual who has not only embraced this life-saving cause but has dedicated himself to advocating for it. His story is one of inspiration and purpose, and through his efforts with the Living Liver Foundation, David is making a profound impact on countless lives, inspiring others to consider the life-saving potential of becoming a living donor.
In this episode, David takes us through his transformative journey from a successful entrepreneur to a passionate advocate for liver donation. He shares his personal story of becoming a living liver donor, the challenges he faced, and the profound impact it had on his life. We delve into the mission of the Living Liver Foundation, which David founded to raise awareness and support for those considering liver donation. Through candid reflections and powerful insights, David sheds light on the importance of organ donation, the lives it saves, and the enduring legacy of compassion it creates.

How can one break free from fear and live a fearless life?
Fear has a remarkable ability to hold us back, trapping us within the confines of our comfort zones. But what if we could break free from the shackles of fear and live a truly fearless life? Imagine the possibilities that would unfold if we could face challenges head-on, pursue our dreams with unwavering determination, and embrace uncertainty with open arms.
Drawing on the wisdom of Dandapani’s The Power of Unwavering Focus, I will share some of the effects of fear and worry on one’s personal growth.
In his book, Dandapani emphasizes that fear often arises from a scattered and undisciplined mind, and adds that fear is often rooted in the mind’s projections about the future or past, rather than the present moment.
Today, I am flying solo to talk about living without limits and embracing a fearless life. Join me for another inspiring episode as I discuss the secrets to living a life free from the constraints of fear and discover the incredible rewards that await those who dare to step outside of their comfort zones.
