In this episode, I sit down with Omar Sahyoun, a proven operator who has scaled companies in e-commerce, retail, and technology. Omar explains why short-term thinking kills scale, and why CEOs must treat their business like real operators — focused on revenue, fundamentals, and long-term stability. We also talk about white space opportunities, building teams that follow you for years, and how to grow without burning cash.

In this episode, I sit down with Adam Lieb, a CEO who has been building companies since he was 11 years old. Adam talks about one of the hardest parts of scaling — letting people go sooner. He explains why waiting too long hurts the company, why roles that work at 15 employees don’t work at 50, and how CEOs must keep evolving as the business grows.

In this episode, I sit down with Christophe Zoghbi, the founder and CEO of ZAKA. Chris explains why scaling too fast can destroy a company, and why building the right foundation matters more than speed. We also talk about sustainable growth, the power of community, and how CEOs can use AI to stop being the bottleneck.

In this episode, I talk with Dr. Philippe Bousso, CEO of Blue Dots Partners and author of Aligning the Dots. Philippe explains why alignment is the real driver of growth and why most companies slow down when they lose that alignment. He breaks down how to match what you offer with what customers truly want, how to create real delight, and why CEOs must fix internal and board alignment if they want to scale from 10 million to 100 million and beyond. This is a clear and practical conversation about understanding your market, removing confusion inside the company, and leading with more clarity and focus.

In this episode, I talk with Kiran Mann, CEO of Brar’s and founder of M2M Business Solutions. Kiran explains why burnout has little to do with long hours and everything to do with ignoring your own signals. She talks about the power of pausing, the importance of clarity at the top of an organization, and how her Harmonic System helps leaders create fulfillment and growth at the same time. We also talk about workplace culture, handling pressure across the company, and how AI can support humans rather than replace them. This is a calm and honest conversation about leading with balance, clarity, and self awareness.

In this episode, I talk with Dr. Karla Johnson, CEO of the Pennsylvania Leadership Charter School. Karla shares how her view of leadership changed completely over 30 years — from trying to do everything herself to realizing that true leadership is about what you get done through your team. We also talk about building trust, scaling education with technology, and preparing the next generation of leaders to think differently.

In this episode, I talk with Fran Brzyski, the CEO and co-founder of Hark, a feedback intelligence platform that turns customer stories into business insight. Fran shares why believing in yourself (even when it feels a little crazy) is what it really takes to build something great. We also talk about scaling empathy with AI, trusting your gut as a founder, and learning how to scale yourself before scaling your company.

In this episode, I sit down with Alex Shevelenko, CEO and co-founder of Relayto AI, to explore how AI is redefining the way we share ideas. Alex explains why information alone doesn’t move people — and how static documents like PDFs and slides are holding companies back. He shares his lessons from scaling SuccessFactors to a $3.4B exit and why every business must design intelligent, interactive content that drives real action.

In this episode, I sit down with Norberto Clemente, founder of ProTopVA, to talk about the art of letting go. Norberto shares how founders can escape the chaos of doing it all, build systems that scale, and delegate with confidence. He explains why every entrepreneur must shift from hustle to structure — because holding on too long keeps your business from growing. A must-listen for CEOs learning to scale smarter, not harder.

In this episode, I sit down with Kian Alavi, CEO of Mazlo, to talk about purpose, leadership, and building tech that serves the greater good. Kian shares why he believes it’s immoral to let nonprofits fight for good with outdated tools, how values alignment builds trust, and how AI can help nonprofits close the gap and scale impact faster. A powerful reminder that capitalism and compassion must grow together.
