Entrepreneurship has a longer history than you may think. Derek Lidow, a Princeton University professor, has found evidence of entrepreneurship from 9,000 years ago – a mini workshop used by hunter-gatherers to produce beads and pendants for trade. In 4000 BC, there was a Silicon Valley-like village that produced copper tools. 

This week, he discusses the fascinating history of entrepreneurship, as well as how entrepreneurs work collectively in swarms, simplifying control, building bedrock companies, and taking responsibility for the negative consequences of innovation.

One thing worse than the temporary pain of discomfort is the avoidable pain of regret, says Judi Holler. She’s on a mission to increase her tolerance for pain by conducting daily fear experiments and trying to be a bit braver and more authentic today than she was yesterday. Judi has brought her Second City improv training and humor to her work as a keynote speaker, best-selling author, podcaster, and entrepreneur.

Bill Murphy didn’t believe he was worthy of a PTSD diagnosis, because "that's a warrior’s diagnosis, that's a soldier. I'm not on the battlefield.” He was an overachieving workaholic, running marathons, and doing extreme sports and triathlons. But he hadn’t recovered from his abusive childhood and that started to affect him, leading to him checking into psychiatric care after finishing an Ironman race. This week he talks with Tristan about caring for his younger self, developing a thriving mentality, the importance of routine, and journaling as self coaching.
