  • #235 Harley Finkelstein: Why You Must Requalify for Your Role—Every Year
    2025/07/08
    What does it mean to live—and lead—with intention? Shane sits down with his friend and Shopify President Harley Finkelstein to explore what happens when you treat every role in your life—father, husband, leader—as something you have to requalify for, every single year. Harley shares why stepping down as COO was the hardest decision of his life, how a simple family motto is shaping his daughters, and what it really takes to become a world-class storyteller. They also unpack AI’s real advantage, the calendar system that keeps him honest, and the quiet force of standards that never get lowered. It’s a candid look at ambition, identity, and the challenge of holding yourself to a higher standard—everywhere it counts.

  • #235 Outliers: Jimmy Pattison — Building a $16B Empire Without Connections, Capital, or Credentials
    2025/07/01
    At 96 years old, Jimmy Pattison still runs his $16 billion empire personally. He’s built it over 63 years without outside capital or a college degree. He owns 100% of car dealerships, billboards, radio stations—even Ripley’s Believe It or Not—with a philosophy of: "No partners, no shareholders, no relatives." This episode reveals the principles behind one of North America’s great private empires: how to build and compound a reputation, why the best deals happen in silence, and what a Japanese bicycle taught him about operational excellence. You’ll learn the hidden advantage of selling “souvenir editions” instead of newspapers, how he turned a ghost radio station into a ratings leader overnight, and why he once fired the entire bottom 10% of his staff—then took them out for steak. Most people play for approval. Pattison plays for permanence through reputation, relentless clarity, and never mistaking flash for fundamentals. This episode is for informational purposes only and is based on Jimmy: An Autobiography by Jim Pattison and Paul Grescoe.

  • #234 Indra Nooyi: Lessons from the Top of PepsiCo—and the Cost of Getting There
    2025/06/24
    On her first day as CEO of PepsiCo, Indra Nooyi fired her general counsel. Then rehired him before dinner. It wasn’t a stunt. It was a signal. She ran a $200 billion empire the same way she ran her life: with surgical precision, uncompromising standards, and an allergy to corporate theater. But here's what separates this conversation from every other CEO interview: she tells you what her massive ambition cost her and her family. What it means to carry the hopes of millions who look like you. What happens when a strategy you bet your career on starts to crumble. She reveals her private system for tracking 400 rising stars inside of a corporate giant and the advice Steve Jobs gave her that changed everything. If you’ve ever felt the pull between ambition and identity, this one’s for you. Indra doesn’t just talk about power. She shows what it costs.
