    Season 2 Episode 4: Joel Hodroff (Part 2)- Money Innovation: Is the World Ready?

    Season 2 Episode 4: Joel Hodroff- Money Innovation: Is the World Ready? I’m your host, Jeff Conner and I’m excited to jump into part two of my conversation with Joel Hodroff, my economic futurist friend who is trying to change the world through money innovation. Before we get to the show, I want to share with you a development with the foundation I started in memory of our son Waylon, who passed away in November of 2019. For those of you who have been listening for a while, you know that the #LITA podcast was inspired by Waylon’s life. If you want to learn more about why I started this podcast, go back and listen to Episode 3. Over the past year, we have formed a board, received our 501C3 status as a non-profit, and now have a clear mission and vision for our foundation. Our mission is to help parents and caregivers of troubled teens so they don’t have to go through what Waylon’s mom and I went through as we struggled to understand what Waylon was going through and to get him the help he needed. We meet our mission by being a resource to parents as well as connecting them to resources available. We are also facilitating support groups for parents and providing education through speaking event. You can learn more at www.waylonjames.org. While you’re there, please consider making a donation to help us grow and connect to more parents. We look forward to making a difference in communities by helping parents help their kids. Again, you can learn more and support us by going to www.waylonjames.org This week, we’re picking up where we left off with Joel Hodroff. We’re talking about how his dual currency system could actually work, how you can be a part of it and some of the barriers Joel has faced getting his creation into the world. He extends an open invitation to early adopters, so if you would you like to get in on this now, get in touch with Joel through his LinkedIn Page: https://www.linkedin.com/in/joelhodroff Enjoy as we conclude this timely conversation.

    Season 2 Episode 3: A Better Alternative to Win-Lose Competition Over Money (Part 1)

    Season 2 Episode 3: Joel Hodroff- A Better Alternative to Win-Lose Competition Over Money This week’s guest is Joel Hodroff. He is an inventor, a 40+ year business entrepreneur and an economic futurist. He often feels like a Stranger in a Strangle Land (if you Grok). Joel believes that emerging business models—based upon cooperation and sustainability—can rapidly solve our most pressing social, economic, and environmental challenges. All the needed technologies are already at hand to update money, economics and commerce towards an ever-improving quality of life for individuals, families and communities. He has been a Visa Innovation Provocateur and a Twin Cities Innovator of the Year. He’s playing for (and praying for) a “25-year overnight success story” and is only 2 years behind schedule. Joel is a great friend and mentor to me. We have spent uncountable hours talking about economics, money, life and love and that’s why this conversation is split over two episodes. We had a lot to unpack in looking at how we could build a better world of win-win-win cooperation over money. I hope you enjoy this conversation as much as I did!

    Episode 19: Ron Henderson- Race & Law Enforcement, Never Have Another Bad Day, and Choosing Your Attitude

    Ron Henderson, “The Fitness King”, is an author, fitness innovator and speaker, who has been providing personal training and motivational presentations to audiences for the past 40 years. Ron was the first fitness professional in the Minneapolis – St. Paul area to work with clients and help them define, develop, and pursue their fitness goals as a personal trainer. Ron has been called upon to coached Top Doctors, NFL players, Lawyers, and CEOs throughout the state of Minnesota. Ron’s goal is to help people become the best version of themselves by providing them with training that builds their body and motivational presentations that give them the mindset, attitude & beliefs for success. I met Ron when I saw his vehicle outside a coffee shop and had to go in and find out more about it. From that first chance encounter, which lasted well over an hour, I’ve enjoyed learning about Ron and being in his enthusiastic presence. Ron has a zeal for life that is pervasive and infectious. I asked Ron to come on the #LITA Podcast with me because he posted a video on Facebook about the current racial tensions in our nation. I was very interested to hear his perspective, as a black man, on law enforcement, police officers and following directions and the law. We have a really fun and far reaching conversation that touches on many different topics. I hope you enjoy listening to Ron as much as I did.
