Pursue Your Own Self Growth - With Dustin Miller
Friday May 07, 2021
Friday May 07, 2021
This week's episode is a deep dive into Polymaths, individuals who embody the quote “Jack of all trades, master of none, though oftentimes better than master of one.” Which our guest Dustin Miller has modeled his entire life and career around. Carving his own path is something Miller is familiar with, and the niche world he has carved out now has plenty of space and a well worn path for others to discover and follow.
Come with us as we tour the inspirations, motivations, and ideas behind Dustin’s PolyInnovator- a Omni-Support channel depicting his journey to becoming a polymath and the skills he’s picking up along the way. This endeavor stemmed from many years and frustrations of having so many platforms and modes of communication. Miller, like many polymaths and go-getters, took matters into his own hands and created the space he had dreamed of for years. The self-teaching tool has enabled Miller and his followers access to hundreds of videos, guides, and other documentation of the learning processes that he experienced.
This entire project is based off of a simple premise, and that premise is that “Power of Choice is Key” to anyone's success. Driven forward by the desire to become a better individual, Miller has been pushing boundaries for decades and shows no signs of slowing down. After building his own computer at age ten, it may seem like this bogging guru has continued to build his life and pursue progress at every turn.
So dive into this episode and learn how human nature is inherently polymathic, and how our problems can be solved in surprising ways.
Notable Quotes:
“Polymathic is human nature. Some more than others like da vinci are super polymaths. Many of us are polymaths without even realizing it.”
Dustin Miller
“If you can “cross pollinate” with the knowledge and innovation of other areas of expertise you already have. You can overcome and blow past the roadblock. It may seem circular but it ends up becoming the way to grow in different categories.”
“#makeachange - wants to help the world become a type 1 civilization- our species is lame and choosing the wrong items to focus on.”
“Strategyx automation.x execution= success”

Cultivating a Carbon Negative Future: Part 2- with James McWalter
Friday Apr 09, 2021
Friday Apr 09, 2021
Welcome back to part two of our exclusive interview with entrepreneur and climate change activist James McWalter. In our first episode two weeks ago we got an inside look into a fascinating field that has rapidly grown within the past few decades as our impact as humans becomes more apparent. One result of the negative human impact is carbon emissions. Tons, and tons, and tons of carbon emissions. Clouding the atmosphere, causing temperature, ecological and oceanic changes that will ultimately destroy life as we know it.
That's where James comes in. Inspired by the impending problems facing down humanity, James created a goal to help reduce 1 gigaton of carbon in our atmosphere. That’s essentially 1/40th of all carbon that is in Earths’ atmosphere. The current plan to achieve this goal is through restructuring our agricultural practices through a technique called regenerative agriculture.
Join us as we discuss how Facebook plays a large role in farmers communication, planning and communities. Why so many in this crucial circle become defensive about farming practices and their contributions to potential change. James’s advice on how to become a carbon reducing consumer with your foods in easy steps (spoiler alert- red meat is NOT off the menu); and how you as an entrepreneur, aspiring business person, and passion follower can structure your priorities.

Notable Quotes
“We have the right to be able to contribute to the work in the world, but think about all the ways we are inhibited from doing that. We don’t live in a safe community, we don’t have adequate education or clean air, clean water, all the things that make it problematic to be the best versions of ourselves. Those are contributive injustices.” - Dawn Carpenter
“I just want everyone that ever meets me or listens to me on a podcast or hears me speak or reads something that I write… I want them to understand that no matter who they are or what they do, their life matters.” - Dawn Carpenter

Notable Quotes
“Just because something has good software or is technically correct, is doesn’t mean it’s the right solution for the problem.” - Ryan Hildebrandt
“People aren’t buying the speakers, they can get the speakers and ideas for free online, at their convenience. Why would you try to market to them and get them to buy tickets for the speakers? … Basically, what people were paying for is the experience of being in the same room as all the smartest people in your town… like who knows what could happen!” - Ryan Hildebrandt
“Your opportunities in life are a function of the quality of your ideas as people are seeing them and the number of people that are exposed to those ideas.”
