A few months ago I came up with an idea that derailed me and my family's life. Let me tell you a bit about it in this short episode. Music: www.bensound.com

Marcus has been a Founder, CEO, and Advisor to companies spanning consumer electronics, blockchain, and biotechnology since 2012. Marcus is currently CMO at iTrust Capital and Head of Science at Halcyon Biotechnologies Inc. We talk about what consolidation may look like in crypto, tribalism in the space, and we ask one big question: Can the world truly be decentralized?

Today I sit down with Nathan Mintz who is the CoFounder/CEO of Epirus Systems. Epirus is a venture-backed startup specializing in agile development of advanced defense systems. The team combines decades of aerospace & defense experience with Silicon Valley innovation in order to address 21st century threats, such as drones and other asymmetric technologies.

As a continuation of my Blockchain series, on this episode I sit down to chat with Fred Krueger. Fred is a Stanford PhD and serial entrepreneur with 9 significant exits. He is focused on making consumer blockchain and high volume daaps a reality. EOS Lynx is the fastest growing wallet on the EOS Blockchain, and Workcoin is a gig marketplace on EOS. The highlight of the conversation is Fred's thoughts about the roll that stablecoins will play in the future of crypto. Music: www.bensound.com

Taylor is the founder & CEO of MyCrypto, one of the leading blockchain interfaces. Previously, she founded MyEtherWallet. She loves the fast-moving, iterative adventure that encompasses the blockchain space & looks forward to ushering in the decentralized future with easy-to-use products. Since starting as a simple paper-wallet generator, Taylor has expanded the reach and feature-set of MyCrypto, built a team of talented & empathetic people, and welcomes new challenges each day.

In this episode of the Prior Transformation I sit down with Kaj Larsen who is a former US Navy Seal, VICE conflict reporter, and current owner of Crossfit Santa Monica. I've been fascinated with SEAL training for years so this conversation was a bit of a treat. Among many other things, we talk about leading men in combat, building team cohesion, and how some of the ideas from SEAL training can be applied to people in leadership positions outside of the military.

On this episode I sit down with Scott Clausen who composes TV/Movie/ Video game music. His has worked on shows like The Simpsons, King of Queens, Better Off Ted as well as many other shows. If you ever have thought "I'm on a creativity dry spell" then you will want to listen to this episode because Scott talks through how he is able to produce high quality creative work day in and day out without what many people would call "inspiration".
