    Get Into Form: What Entrepreneurs Can Learn From Kobe Bryant

    Send a text Entrepreneurs Need Mamba Form — Not Motivation Most entrepreneurs think they need more motivation. More inspiration. More hype. More energy. But motivation isn’t the problem — form is. In this episode of The Un-Traditional Entrepreneur, we break down what it really means to get into form as an entrepreneur — mentally, emotionally, and strategically. Because when your emotions run the business, burnout isn’t far behind. Using Kobe Bryant and the true meaning of Mamba Mentality as a blueprint, we unpack why discipline, structure, and emotional control matter more than how you feel on any given day. Kobe wasn’t driven by motivation — he was built on form. And that same principle applies to entrepreneurship. This episode explores: Why motivation is unreliable for entrepreneursThe difference between reacting emotionally and responding strategicallyHow unresolved personal stress leaks into business decisionsWhy discipline protects your mental capacityWhat “getting into form” actually looks like in real lifeIf you’re feeling scattered, overwhelmed, or constantly in your head, this episode will help you reset your approach — not by grinding harder, but by building structure where chaos lives. Because entrepreneurs don’t burn out from work. They burn out from being out of form. Entrepreneurs don’t need more motivation — they need form. In this episode, we break down mental discipline, emotional control, and what Kobe Bryant’s Mamba Mentality really teaches about building businesses that last.

    ChatGPT Don't Always Get It Right.

    Send a text At least that’s what I thought at first. I did what everyone else is doing—used the prompts, asked the “right” questions, tried to automate the process, and expected the results to magically show up. But they didn’t. And it wasn’t because AI is bad or useless. It was because AI doesn’t replace thinking, strategy, or systems. ChatGPT can write fast, organize ideas, and speed things up, but it can’t fix a weak business model, create clarity where none exists, or build infrastructure for you. Most people aren’t failing with AI—they’re failing before AI even enters the picture. In this episode of UTE, we break down why ChatGPT “fails” so many entrepreneurs, how prompt culture has created false expectations, and what actually needs to be in place before automation works. This conversation is about using AI as leverage, not a crutch, and building real systems that turn effort into results. Because tools don’t build businesses—systems do.

    Serious People Pay to Be in Serious Rooms

    Send a text I’m breaking down my trip to Podfest and why conferences still matter — especially paid conferences. This isn’t about flexing attendance. It’s about understanding the difference between people who consume information and people who invest in themselves. We’ll talk about: Why serious people find a way to attend paid conferences The mindset difference between free vs paid rooms Why free access often leads to free results How proximity creates opportunity Why being in the right room matters more than taking notes If you’re serious about your industry, your craft, or your future — this conversation is for you.

    Why Leaving Your Job To Become An Influencer Is A Bad Idea.
