Ep. 101 Going Deeper and Asking the Tough Questions
Tim Croll and Steve Gohl share an honest conversation about suicide, grief, mental health, and the importance of truly checking in with the people we care about.They talk about losing people close to them, the shock and guilt that follow, and how grief can continue to return over time. They also explore why “I’m fine” does not always tell the full story and offer three questions that can lead to deeper conversations:
How are you sleeping?
What is taking up space in your head?
What is the one thing you cannot say out loud?
The episode also includes practical ways to support someone who is struggling, including listening without trying to fix everything, showing up, sharing emotional burdens, and creating a simple daily routine built around gratitude, encouragement, and quiet reflection. This is a vulnerable conversation about loss, hope, and learning to be more present for the people around us.

Ep. 100 Surviving Startup Mode - The Internal Shift That Changed Everything Outside for Hess Adnani
Most founders fail because they treat their business like a math problem when it’s really a story about survival, identity, and timing. Hess Adnani reveals why the real breakthrough comes when you stop forcing a dead idea, start listening to the market, and build the internal strength to keep going.
Tim Croll and Hess Adnani unpack the overlooked connection between entrepreneurship and personal transformation, from the brutal startup “valley of death” to the inner work that changes everything outside of you. Hess shares how selling everything he owned, traveling across 30 countries, and stepping away from the grind led him to a new framework for growth that blends business strategy with nervous system regulation.
You’ll discover:
Why most startups die by falling in love with their first idea
How to know when a pivot is smart instead of quitting
The mistake of building in isolation before talking to customers
Why self-worth shapes the money you make and the boundaries you set
How Hess’s “organic technology” maps the mind-body system into two axes: doer mode and wise mode
