    Using Poker Strategy as a Framework for Winning at Life, Investing and Decision Making with Professional High Stakes Poker Player Alec Torelli

    Using Poker Strategy as a Framework for Winning at Life, Investing and Decision Making with Professional High Stakes Poker Player Alec Torelli

    Poker strategy isn't just for winning the World Series of Poker, a back room high stakes poker game in Macau, or a big online poker tournament. 

    The game of poker mimics life in the sense that it forces you to make decisions without having complete information. 

    After playing millions of hands over the past 14 years, and mastering the art of taking calculated risks, Alec has developed an unparalleled ability to apply the skills he learned in poker to evaluate situations in life and business.
    Learn how to use a combination of logic, intuition and self-awareness to make better, more informed choices, and determine the optimal course of action when you can’t ‘see all the cards’.

    ABOUT ALEX TORELLI
    With over $2,200,000 in poker tournament winnings and millions more in both live and online cash games, Alec Torelli is one of the most respected poker players in the industry today.

    He is the founder of the popular poker training site Conscious Poker, and his YouTube channel has over 10,000,000 views.

    For the past decade, he has taken the principles he’s learned in poker, from risk management to decision making, and applied them to making investments.

    Alec has been investing in cryptocurrency since 2017, and also has helped syndicate deals for mobile home parks and early stage start ups. He writes a newsletter, WHealthier, to 25,000+ investors.

    Authenticity and Enthusiasm: Why Anyone Can Use Them to Do Hard Things Including Building a School from Scratch with Jim Eagen Head of Synapse School in Menlo Park, CA

    Authenticity and Enthusiasm: Why Anyone Can Use Them to Do Hard Things Including Building a School from Scratch with Jim Eagen Head of Synapse School in Menlo Park, CA

    Jim visited our studio to talk about how he, his team and the Synapse School community built a school from the ground up with an innovate approach to education.

    The best way to describe what Synapse is doing is educating Change Makers by focusing keenly on Social-Emotional Learning, innovation and leading edge academics.

    Their teachers, who are as committed as they are remarkable, build classroom communities and relationships based on trust, an essential ingredient in teaching and learning, while they cultivate in their students curiosity, creativity and risk-taking.

    Most importantly, they are about helping human beings be better human beings.

    Listen in for this fun, "educational" conversation.

    ABOUT JIM EAGEN
    Jim Eagen believes that when schools and their leaders focus less on what to change and more importantly, embrace constant change in order to develop the critical skills of implementing change, transformation in education is possible. Jim has enjoyed a wonderful 35 year career in independent schools, first as a student, then as classroom teacher, coach, and administrator, and now, in his 11th year, as the Head of School at Synapse, a one-of-kind K-8 lab school in Menlo Park with a signature project based curriculum and brain-based framework.

    Synapse has grown exponentially in size and impact under his leadership and has earned a reputation for being a place where students, teachers and families thrive in large part due to Jim’s vision and energy.

    When not at Synapse, presenting about Synapse, or talking to just about anyone who
    will listen to him about Synapse, he can often be found on a ride, on a run, or laughing and learning with his wife, dog, and their two kids, a college senior and a high school senior.
