  If I had to change my title, it would be Professional Shot Shooter. It's how I came up with the concept of Orbit Jumping. It's why I'm bullish on partnerships and collabs, it's why my business is running, profitable and energizing to this day, it's why I believe with every fiber of my being this is the answer to push back against Tech CEO Psychosis.

Brown also believes it's a life well lived.

  Comparison, Competition, and What We Get Wrong About Both 22.07.2026 29min

  I woke up thinking about the Latin root of "com" which sent me down a rabbit hole -- turns out, these used to be quite positive words back in the day. The words "comparison" and "competition" had a whole different meaning before capitalism and industrialization took over (shocking!) and in this ep, I'm exploring how we can get back to its original roots: "to make equal with" and "to strive together". Come with me as I make comparisons to modern day media powerhouses like Alex Cooper, ho...

  How to Manage Topsy Turvy Finances 24.06.2026 1t

  My financial situation this year is giving... erratic. I share every detail in today's ep and why I'm not calling 911 yet. After YEARS of steady monthly recurring revenue that paid all my basic expenses and then some, I changed my business model in late 2025, which resulted in seeing income numbers I haven't seen since year 1 of starting my business. I'm talking "how am I going to afford all this month's expenses?" kind of numbers. At first, I was chill, leaning on my savings and systems. The...

  The Great AI Debate: Claude, ChatGPT, Broken Systems and The Beauty of Friction 28.05.2026 59min

  K, grab your glass of red and come sit. We need to talk about AI. The discourse has been rampant the last few months: vibe-coding, Claude Cowork, agentic AI, OpenAI and partnering with the Department of War, AI psychosis, custom dashboards, apps, and GPTs... We are FLOODED with info right now, and instead of leading with curiosity, social media has become a 360 slam-dunk fest on who's right or wrong.

  The Invisible World Inside You (And How Astrology Helps You Bring It Into Reality) w/ Hollis M.M. 19.05.2026 57min

  Hollis is one of those wise women I stumbled upon while scrolling Threads, and wondered: what is she doing over there and how can I be in her world?!

In this episode, we use astrology as an actual roadmap to understand our inner worlds (and why it's not just some fun personality quiz). We get into:&n...

  Predictions for the Next Era of the Online Coaching World 12.05.2026 19min

  Between the rise of AI and its ability to "clone" a coach, the whiplash of being on Threads and finding out your fave coach is kinda a Mean Girl, and the fall of celebrity coaches, there seems to be a crack in the coaching space.
