This is my second conversation with Marcy Axelrod, a continuation on the topic of Truly Showing Up, Marcy's 20 year long research on neuroscience and psychology to point to a way to create meaning in life and business by choosing to truly show up.

How to truly show up and the role of loving relationships and the society with Marcy Axelrod. Part 2

Save this Track!
“What if someone created the most optimized song for decreased stress, increased focus, improved mood, and instant flow-state for any and all creative, deep work you have to do today?”

At Grownlearn, I am excited to share a revolutionary 25-minute track designed to help you unlock peak productivity and creativity. Created by James Beshara, blending sound, science, and wellness, this track is crafted around the transformative power of 528 Hertz—the “Love Frequency.”

Here’s how James describes his journey:

    “Hey, hey there. I’m James, the creator-founder of a few different things, one of which is a little energy drink called Magic Mind that you may have come across that gets you dialed in for flow state. Eight hours of just dialed-in, your to-do list just melts away. I’m also a musician here in Los Angeles.”

James’s passion for sound therapy grew from research into 528 Hertz:

    “The research around music at 528 Hertz, as that has become more and more clear in the last few years, that it can decrease stress, increase focus, flow, improve mood—all within minutes of exposure—I started to make music only around this frequency.”

The track is also timed to align with the Pomodoro Technique, a proven productivity method involving 25-minute focused work intervals followed by short breaks:

    “I am releasing a song that is, dare I say, 25 minutes long, because of the Pomodoro. A method of productivity, where you set a timer for 25 minutes, take a 5-minute break, and then another 25-minute block. I always wanted music that was timed for 25 minutes, instead of just setting a timer or having to have a timer on your desk.”

This unique sound experience blends 528 Hz frequencies with rhythmic elements that naturally sync with your breathing, creating a calming, uplifting, and focused environment:

    “I wanted to share it with as many folks that might find this interesting. Sound frequencies... In fact, Einstein himself said that the therapy of the future will be frequency-based. You have PEMF mats, you have red light therapy, and I think 528 Hertz sound therapy is going to be massive in the future.”

This 25-minute track is ready to accompany you through your deep work sessions, creative projects, or daily to-do lists.

Impact Investing & Real-World Asset Tokenization with Dr. Karen Wendt | Scaling for Sustainability

In this Grownlearn conversation, I sat down with John Knowlton, a former jail chaplain who went on to co-found and scale a wealth management firm to over $1 billion in assets—and then chose to walk away to pursue a deeper calling.

John shares some of the pivotal moments that shaped his path—from working with inmates in DuPage County Jail to leading a billion-dollar financial advisory firm, and now mentoring Christian CEOs through the C12 Group. We talk about how our thinking shapes our outcomes, what success really means, and how service can be a growth strategy—both in business and in life.

He also gives us a peek into his upcoming book, Thinking for Success, a collection of stories designed to spark better thinking and deeper purpose.

If you're building something meaningful—or trying to figure out what that even looks like—this one will speak to you.

What if your credit card debt... isn’t really debt? 🤯
In this mind-opening episode of the Grownlearn Podcast, Tommy Kilpatrick reveals the illusion behind credit cards and how he legally eliminated $85,000 in bank-issued credit card debt — not by filing bankruptcy, but by exposing how banks actually operate.
Tommy shares how banks issue “credit” without a real loan or signed promissory note — and why that means you may not legally owe them a thing. He takes us deep into the world of legal definitions, Federal Reserve documentation, and powerful court cases that challenge the very foundation of consumer debt.

If you’ve ever felt trapped by credit cards, overwhelmed by balances, or suspicious about how the banking system works… this episode is for you.

🔍 You’ll learn:

    The difference between real vs. fraudulent credit

    Why most credit card debt is technically unsecured and undocumented

    How banks profit from illusion, not actual lending

    Legal strategies to challenge false debt and clean up your credit

    How Tommy helps others fight back — and why he’s not afraid to expose the truth

Plus, we talk about his humanitarian projects in the Philippines — building bamboo dome homes and launching community healthcare clinics with futuristic tech.

Book: Forgive and Forget How to Nuke Your Credit Card Debt. Please review:  https://designrr.page/?id=450370&token=3112357095&h=6546    Amazon: Don't believe anything in this book. Take this book to your CPA and have s/he read the chapter “Act 1 Scene 1”, and hear from their own lips, that the bank could never issue a true credit card. This may be the first time your CPA has ever realized that their own bank-issued credit card is in reality a debit card.

How to Make the 10X Leap in Business with Steve Walsh | Grownlearn Podcast

In this episode of the Grownlearn Podcast, I sit down with John Cousins, entrepreneur, educator, and founder of MBA A$AP. John has a bold mission: to make high-level business education fast, practical, and accessible—without the crushing costs of elite MBA programs.

We dig into why higher education has become a luxury good, what’s broken in traditional MBA programs, and how John designed MBA A$AP to deliver simple but powerful mental models for business success. If you’ve ever wondered whether you really need an MBA to grow as an entrepreneur—or if you’re looking for sharper tools to compete in today’s hyper-competitive world—this one’s for you.

We also explore John’s philosophy on teaching, confidence, and why lifting others up economically makes everyone better. It’s a conversation about business growth, scaling, and building a life you’re proud of.

The Future of Business Learning MBA Knowledge with 0 Debt – John Cousins

In this episode of the Grownlearn Podcast, I sit down with Joris Delanoue, co-founder and CEO of Fairmint. We dig into how Fairmint evolved from a VC capital-raising platform into a pioneer in blockchain-based equity tokenization.

Joris breaks down the Open Cap Table Protocol (OCP), how startups can issue shares directly on-chain, and why this could reshape the $6 trillion private securities market. We also explore the future of regulated DeFi, the role of big players like BlackRock in asset tokenization, and why compliance and investor protection are absolutely key in this next wave.

If you’re into startup growth strategies, scaling with compliance, and the future of blockchain + equity, this conversation is for you.

How Tokenized Equity Will Change Investing Forever | Joris Delanoue

On this episode of Grownlearn, Zorina sits down with Loic Potjes—Executive Coach, former Corporate & Scale-Up CEO, tech investor, and Managing Partner—who’s coached 40+ CEOs across 17 countries. We dig into what actually scales a business: a crisp 80/20 strategy, the right “engine” (your core team), and smart use of AI that goes way beyond meeting notes and automation.

Loic breaks down YPO’s value (it’s growth, not “networking”), how psychometrics (Map & Match) surface your real strengths, why many founders should stop “running the machine,” and his three levels of AI—especially Strategic AI, which he uses in 90-minute workshops to unlock new markets, products, and business models without the old-school strategy-consulting price tag.

The AI-Powered CEO Playbook: Use AI Like a Top Strategy Consultant to Scale Fast and Lead Globally

In this Grownlearn episode, Sal Rehmetullah (co-founder of Stax Payments and now Worth) breaks down how he and his sister Suneera scaled Stax to 500 employees and $200M ARR, sold it for $1B, and then turned their attention to the broken world of small-business credit.

We dig into Worth’s AI-powered underwriting plus onboarding stack, why they don’t touch fund flows, and how they’re partnering across global data sources so banks and lenders can understand real-time business risk—think “Credit Karma for business,” but built for enterprise adoption first. Sal also gets candid about purpose post-exit, minority-led entrepreneurship, the $25M seed led by TTV Capital, and what SMB owners can do today to become more lendable.

About the guest:
Sal Rehmetullah is the co-founder of Stax Payments (one of the first minority-led fintech unicorns) and co-founder of Worth, which is rebuilding the financial infrastructure for SMBs with real-time compliance, onboarding, and underwriting.

We get into raising from RIAs, sales coaching (his 4 principles of fundraising), and the “no-policy policy” that built a high-trust culture. Gui also shares why kindness + clear expectations outperform, how hiring for culture compounds, and how to convert content into pipeline without the gimmicks.

How Dakota CEO Gui Costin Turned Weekly Sales Meetings into “Dakota Live” and Deal Flow

In this episode, I sit down with Saul Cohen (Partner at The Expert Eye, ex-PwC) to unpack how small and mid-sized businesses can grow faster with mergers & acquisitions. We get real about today’s market—why interest from buyers and sellers is up, why fewer deals are closing, and how founders can still build momentum by de-risking, acquiring strategically, and planning tax-smart exits.

We cover:
• How to make your company buyable (and why 85% never sell)
• When an add-on acquisition beats organic growth
• Values & culture fit (the hidden deal killer)
• Search funds, seller-supported deals, and liquidity constraints
• Baby boomer exits and the coming wealth transfer
• Cash vs valuation trade-offs, and practical tax & succession tips

About Saul Cohen
Saul is an accountant and acquisitions advisor who’s helped entrepreneurs navigate financial audits, risk, and strategic deals. At The Expert Eye, he empowers owners to go from operators to savvy investors—optimizing wealth, readiness for exit, and impactful acquisitions.

If you’re a founder or operator eyeing transformation, this conversation gives you the playbook to scale intentionally.

The 2025 M&A Reality Check Risk, Liquidity & What Buyers Want with Saul Cohen

In this episode of the Grownlearn Podcast, host Zorina Dimitrova sits down with Maximiliano Stochyk, an executive at CoinTerminal — a Dubai-based decentralized fundraising platform helping DeFi and Web3 founders raise millions transparently while giving retail investors a fair chance to participate.

With nearly a decade in the blockchain industry, Maximiliano has helped founders raise over $25 million, scaled ChainPort from $1M to $500M TVL, and built systems that eliminate the typical barriers in early-stage crypto fundraising — no staking, no token lockups, just open-access opportunity.

Why Every Founder Needs a Book Scale with Storytelling, Trust & Brand Authority with Doug Crowe

In this episode of GrownLearn, host Zorina Dimitrova sits down with Andrea Iorio — one of Brazil’s most sought-after keynote speakers and a global authority on digital transformation, leadership, and human behavior in the age of AI.

Andrea shares his groundbreaking approach to AI implementation, focusing not on the technology itself but on people, mindset, and ethics. Drawing from his roles as Head of Tinder Latin America and Chief Digital Officer at L’Oréal Brazil, he explains why most AI projects fail — and how leaders can build the skills and governance needed for long-term success.

Together, Zorina and Andrea explore:

Why AI success depends on human soft skills — not just data and algorithms

How to create a culture of adaptability, empathy, and curiosity in business

The three pillars of skill transformation from Andrea’s upcoming book Between You and AI

Why behavioral change, not technical training, drives digital transformation

Whether you’re a business leader, innovator, or lifelong learner, this conversation will challenge how you think about technology, leadership, and growth in the AI era.
