How the show works

Titled by the problem

01

One guest, one hour

A long conversation with someone a few years ahead of you on the same road. No panel, no pitch.

02

The Business of…

Each episode is named for the problem it solves: starting over, saying no, getting laid off, finding clients. Pick the one you are in.

03

In their own words

Every episode runs as a full feature you can read in one sitting. Guests see every word before it runs.
