#14: Rahsaan King - The evolution of a start-up (and an entrepreneur)

This conversation with Rahsaan King, Harvard student and founder of Students of Strength, sheds light on eroding factors the start-up is facing as it seeks to serve schools as well as individual students. During the conversation we also uncovered a potential enabling factor that might just be the key to overcoming some critical eroding factors. It's a great conversation for any entrepreneur looking for ways to think differently about their business in order to gain new insights. And, Rahsaan is quite inspiring too. Enjoy the conversation!

#17: Mark and Bethany Douglas Part I—Building a Family’s Future Using V-REEL

While the V of V-REEL stands for Value, after visiting with Mark and Bethany Douglas, I’m thinking of another v word: versatility. The way Mark and Bethany are applying V-REEL is very versatile and, honestly, they surprised me. Mark and Bethany are both entrepreneurs and have used the V-REEL framework in their businesses for a while now. Mark’s business, Fidelis Creative Agency, helps businesses look, sound, and perform better. They handle digital services, websites, media, and are expanding into digital marketing.

#18: Mark and Bethany Douglass Part II—V-REEL for the Whole Family

In Part II of my conversation with Mark and Bethany Douglass, we talk about how the L in V-REEL, Longevity, helps them carry out their family mission statement— training their children in an atmosphere that seeks creativity, education, and fosters the entrepreneurial spirit in their kids.  Bethany is quick to point out that as a family, they apply V-REEL to more than business/financial decisions. It also works with abstract and emotional goals and helps the kids better understand who they are.
