Hurry Hard: Chasing Curiosity and Sharing Boundless Insights from Ideas that Matter

Today we talk to Nic Sulsky— TV personality, tech entrepreneur, and the guy on a mission to revolutionize the sport of curling. Nic is a character. He went from hosting a kids' TV show to conning his way onto a sports talk show, to pioneering two fantasy sports companies to his latest challenge, making curling the biggest winter sport in the world. Now if you think that sounds a little far-fetched, I’m with you. But when you hear Nic’s passion for the game and his plans, you start thinking he could actually pull this off. Nic’s talks about playing for Canada’s national rugby team in the Jewish Olympics, which I didn’t know was a thing. He talks about the pain of watching one of his companies implode in 3 weeks. And why he launched the Grand Slam of Karaoke to showcase the amazing athletes he wants to turn into superstars I guarantee this conversation will change how you think about curling, which to be honest is not something I’ve thought much about at all. But more than that, it’s about what’s possible when you find the courage to take big swings on what you care about most, and giving zero fucks about what anyone says about it. Resources and Links Grand Slam of Curling – Learn more about the premier curling series that Nick is working to transform. Instagram YouTube Twitter / X Grand Slam of Karaoke – The fun event featuring curlers singing live on stage.

Tales of Trauma & Resilience: Chasing Curiosity and Sharing Boundless Insights from Ideas that Matter

Nicole Ferry is a 26-year veteran of law enforcement who’s on a mission to help others build resilience by sharing her heart-breaking stories of PTSD, trauma and suicide. Nicole is best known for her talk “What the Hell? The 3 Things I learned in the worst year of my life.” Nicole has spent her life in law enforcement. She holds a degree in Criminal Justice, she’s been an executive police leader for a railroad, she did an 8-year tour as a Military Police Officer and is a graduate of the FBI National Academy in Quantico, VA.I don’t have any direct experience with PTSD, any more than I know what it’s like to get a yellow brick from the FBI or investigate deaths on America’s railways. But I felt Nicole’s stories in my bones. I know how it feels to carry the weight of past traumas and the toll that takes on me and the people around me. I also know the freedom that comes from letting that baggage go. This conversation is a bit of a roller coaster. It’s heavy material but we also laughed a lot, mostly as I tried to relate Nicole’s stories to my only frame of reference - Law & Order, A Few Good Men and bro-cop movies set in Boston. Nicole’s brave stories carry a message of resilience and hope. But most importantly, they’re a reminder of how much we can learn from those with dramatically different experiences from our own.Takeaways Authority figures can have a dramatic impact on how we see ourselves early in lifeYou don’t have to be a first responder to have powerful stressors in your jobEveryone accumulates stress over their lives that will eventually come out in terrible ways if you don’t manage itSimple daily practices like journaling, meditation and physical exercise make a huge difference in managing stress and staying mentally healthyTragedy can present you with an opportunity to find your purpose and help othersConnect with NicoleWebsiteLinkedInSurvive First National Gala: Guest SpeakerListen to Nicole on these podcasts:Uncharted Journey: Nicole Ferry, Mental Health ChampionLaw Enforcement Life Coach / Sometimes Heroes Need Help Podcast: Nicole Ferry Thank you for listening today.
