Selena argues that the friction between generations isn't a "Gen Z problem"—it's a leadership crisis. We explore why Gen Z views entrepreneurship as a career insurance policy, why they refuse to make work their entire identity, and why your attempts at control and surveillance are destined to fail.
Forget everything you think you know about loyalty and motivation. This conversation provides a new framework for leading in an era of radical transparency and economic uncertainty.
You'll learn the difference between "Least Generous" and "Most Generous" interpretations, why vulnerability is a leader's greatest asset, and how to build a culture of co-creation instead of compliance.
If you're ready to stop complaining and start leading effectively, this episode is your wake-up call.

Fast-forward five years and he’s running Spirited Hive and Strive Soda — two honey-sweetened beverage brands rewriting the “better-for-you” playbook.
In this unfiltered conversation, Jack and Ryan Hanley dig into:
How to turn early failure into a profitable foundation
Why naïveté can be a founder’s secret weapon
The brutal truth about distribution, marketing, and shelf space
Building slow, selling smart, and setting up for acquisition
What “better-for-you” really means (and what it doesn’t)
This one’s part business therapy, part entrepreneurial bloodsport.Grab a drink, settle in, and take notes.
Because growth done right still takes sweat, humility, and a little honey.
