How to Stay Calm When Everything Goes Wrong | Jenn Cassetta
Why can you handle a setback one day, but the smallest thing pushes you over the edge the next?
Jenn Cassetta, keynote speaker, author and third-degree black belt, returns to Adventures in Business with Amani Roberts and Mandi Graziano to explore what keeps us steady under pressure. Drawing from her upcoming book, The Secrets of the Sensei, Jenn introduces her resilience reservoir assessment, and the hosts put their own results on the table.
A chaotic morning for Mandi becomes a real example of how everyday habits can prepare us for the moments we cannot plan. Jenn's routines faced their own test when she returned to Los Angeles during the wildfires and struggled to feel safe, even at home. From that experience to the rejection and uncertainty of building a speaking career, the conversation connects resilience to morning routines, boundaries and having something to work toward. Martial arts provides the backdrop for learning to trust yourself, protect your energy and keep getting back up.

How Do You Move Forward When You Feel Stuck? | Mini Episode
What's still on your list before the year ends, and do you have room for it? Mandi Graziano and Amani Roberts are in the final lap of the year, but Amani is still figuring out what he wants next after a summer of burnout. Mandi's approach comes down to capacity, consistency and care: look at what's filling your day, put your priorities on the calendar and give yourself credit when something goes right. Between grading papers, workouts and sponsor emails, there's plenty to get done. But taking care of yourself needs a spot on the list, too.

What Does It Take to Run a World Cup Host City? | Brandy Thigpen
How do you lead a World Cup operation when there's no roadmap and your team is working for months away from home?
As Los Angeles host city director for FIFA World Cup 2026, Brandy Thigpen oversaw operations outside the stadium, from transportation and hotels to safety and security. Years of relationships in the city helped her take on the role, but the tournament tested her in ways she hadn't expected.
Brandy talks with Amani Roberts and Mandi Graziano about supporting an exhausted team, working inside an emergency operations center and building trust before a crisis happens. She also shares why she returned to school as a working single mom, the uncertainty of finding her next role and why it took six weeks to feel like herself after the tournament ended.
