David Waddell, CEO and Chief Investment Strategist at Waddell and Associates, joins the Founders Club to share how he transformed a family money management practice into a comprehensive wealth service. Known as "The Fog Cutter," David unpacks his journey from Charles Schwab to Babson to eventually taking over his father’s business in Memphis. He discusses why successful entrepreneurs must view failure as "just data," the critical importance of massive operating agreements for partnerships, and why a crisis is often the best time to play offense. Finally, David breaks down the macroeconomic impact of AI and explains why gathering primary information through world travel is essential for making smart business decisions.

The Cost of Scaling | Hannah Kaul
Hannah Kaul, founder of Women in Biz, shares how a local Nashville community expanded across the country before she intentionally brought it back to its roots. Hannah discusses the overwhelming demand among women for in-person connection and the importance of having a safe space to navigate the isolating journey of entrepreneurship. From navigating male-dominated corporate boardrooms to unpacking the hidden costs of rapidly scaling a business, she opens up about stepping back to find balance. Hannah and the hosts explore why women must reject unrealistic societal standards, the vulnerability required to make the "bold ask", and why success doesn't have to equal suffering.

The 5 Attributes of the Top 1% | Micheal Burt
Former championship-winning basketball coach Micheal Burt shares his transition from the basketball court to building a multi-million dollar business coaching empire. Coach Burt breaks down how to activate your "Prey Drive"—the instinctual human ability to see a goal and pursue it with intensity. He unpacks the five key attributes of the top 1% of performers, the vital difference between confidence and remarkable boldness, and why finding your primary skill matters more than finding your "why". From utilizing the "Whole Person Theory" to overcoming local zoning laws to build his $8 million Greatness Factory, Coach Burt offers a masterclass in grit, resilience, and getting a seat at a bigger table.
