In March, we expect mercurial weather- intrat leo, exeunt agnus-but this March has taken things to an extreme. In Washington, D.C., where I live, the weather was eighty-four degrees and sunny one day, then just above freezing and snowing the next.
"Boom, you wake up one day and you say, 'Wow, this is interesting, but it doesn't change anything.' That's the crazy thing. And every millionaire [or] billionaire I talk to says, 'Yeah, it's not that big a deal.'"
Having spent 22 years living in Dallas and eating at some of the best BBQ joints in the world, I can say unequivocally that BBQ sauce, while great, is the least important aspect of an authentic BBQ experience. It's all about the wood, the smoke and lots of patience.
At Extra Ibiza, I focus on building and growing the ecosystem around the company while protecting its human and creative soul. This involves developing partnerships with yacht and villa owners to curate experiences that fit our clients' desires.
I was going to doctors for seven years trying to figure out what's going on with me. I had tummy problems. My skin was a mess. I was tired all the time. When traditional medicine fell short, she turned to the Internet, discovered apple cider vinegar and realized, if you read labels and you actually look at what you're putting in your body, you can affect the way you feel.
In the digital world that we're in, you know, negative videos are what goes viral. People are always knocking people down a peg and it's really easy to fall into that. If something bad happens-which, when you own your business, something bad happens every day- it's easy to circle in despair. But my challenge is to look for the positive and figure out how to pivot, and if something isn't working then figure out a different way to get it done.
Fridays are my errand day. That's when I go to the dentist. That's when I take my dog to the groomer [or] when I get my nails done. For the rest of the workweek, Gonzalez keeps her schedule tight, working Monday through Thursday from 2 p.m. to 6 p.m.
When the crypto startup I was working for was sold in July 2025, I saw it as the perfect opportunity to go all in on myself as a content creator. I had about $6,000 in savings and less than 40,000 followers on TikTok, but I believed I was worth the investment.
I knew I needed help, so I put an ad in MySpace. A woman named Beth responded and I met her for an interview at a coffee shop. As we talked I realized she had all the skills I didn't have. She had a design degree. She had business savvy and technical skills. And she was wildly smart and more importantly, kind.
It's great because honestly it fits perfectly into this relationship. It's obviously a three-co-founder relationship. He's also the one that brings sanity to the conversation and can draw the line sometimes. As Rivio has grown, they have two main takeaways: First, co-founders should have clearly defined lanes. Second, it's a good idea to bring in a third co-founder as a tie-breaker.
The more wealth one accumulates, the more fragile one can feel. What begins as a quest for freedom can morph into a fortress mentality. I have seen peers-brilliant, driven individuals-become distracted by the fear of losing what they have built. Instead of leaning into the adaptability that made them successful, they retreat behind walls, both literal and figurative.
We are changing how the gig economy operates. We let all of our providers quote their own jobs and keep 100% from each job. We are making providers much more money and they're coming to us. It also saves the customers 20-30 percent.
My mom was a nurse. She worked three jobs, so she was often working the morning shift and then night shift. I've always appreciated how hard work was a necessity to getting somewhere.
I had a desire to find a way to blend function and indulgence. LEEVA is collagen-based with 10 grams of protein per serving. Collagen, the most abundant protein in our body, naturally decreases as we age. I wanted to create an experience that was not just functional but also crave- and ritual-worthy.
After getting engaged in 2013, we started kicking around a wild idea: What if we moved back and revived the prohibition-era distillery his family had owned three generations back? The family business had been passed down for decades until it closed in 1919 due to prohibition. In particular, we had on our hearts Andy's dad, who died of cancer in 2010, but had always said, 'Don't move home unless you have a real good reason to.' This felt like it just might be that real good reason.
