Elias Weiss Friedman is the Founder and President of The Dogist. After years in corporate marketing developing a skill set in brand strategy and social media, he was unexpectedly laid off. Elias transformed what most would view as a hardship, into an opportunity. Reconnecting with his childhood passion for photography and dogs, he seized the moment and built The Dogist, one photograph at a time. With hustle, grit and an unrivaled commitment to his art, he built the social media and digital storytelling platform that is now celebrated worldwide by an audience of 3.5 million. He is also a NYT bestselling author, gifted public speaker and proud advocate for many dog rescue and rehabilitation organizations. Nevertheless, humble to the core, he still puts on his knee pads daily and proudly photographs all content for The Dogist with unwavering commitment. 

We covered Elias's whole story as per usual on the Tartare Project with him giving solid advice on how to push forward with your passion and grow it into a business just as he did with The Dogist.

Joe Holder wears a few hats as the founder of the Ocho System, a Nike Master Trainer, Head of Performance for WHOOP, Creative Director of Wellness for smartwater, co-founder of System of Service... and that's not even everything! The Ocho System is a philosophy that was formulated during Joe's time at the University of Pennsylvania which promotes productivity and progress through physical wellness, but more importantly encourages a goal of being holistically, and wholly, better. 

Joe and I had a great conversation covering a lot of his concepts like You, LLC , the plant-based gang and how tasting success is when the hard work really starts. Joe's done an incredible job building his own brand(s) as well as lifting up the brands he's been associated with over the years. You'll hear it in the intro, but my favorite thing about Joe is how much he makes me take a step back and think.

Matty Mo is a Los Angeles-based contemporary artist and marketing entrepreneur best known for creating the conceptual art group, "The Most Famous Artist."

It was really fun hearing the thinking behind some of Matty's work. Key topics we covered were the importance of being in control of the narrative you're portraying for your online persona (and that you have more power around that than you might think) as well as leveraging media as a growth hacking tool.

Marc Barros is the co-founder of Moment, the outfitter for photographers and filmmakers. He's also the founder of Hardware Workshop, a workshop series to help fellow hardware founders and the co-founder of Contour, a hands-free camera company that makes action video easy to capture and share. He does startup lessons every week at @marcbarros.

We covered SO much and we had a great time. It was especially interesting hearing stories from Marc's first company, Contour, and how the lessons he took away from his experience competing with GoPro for years shaped his approach to starting Moment. I also really enjoyed hearing the details of his process for evaluating what industry/sector he wanted to play in next post Contour.

John Fiorentino is an inventor and entrepreneur. He is the creator of the viral product sensations Gravity Blanket and Moon Pod which raised over $6 million dollars on crowdfunding site Kickstarter. Both products have since gone onto be multi-million dollar companies that are growing daily. 

This was a fun episode especially since John was super open about the ups and downs of his journey to date - everything from the importance of mentors to whether venture capital is right for everyone to his insightful life mantra. John's an extremely talented creative mind and I can't wait to see what he launches next.
