Season 6 Episode 24
Leadership struggles? You’re not alone. Hear how Steven turned career setbacks into success.
Steven drops this truth bomb: everyone’s got something special cooking. Get the right people on the bus who actually give a damn about the mission. Make sure they know what you’re all about and why it matters. When you spot what makes each person tick, you can help them soar.
Steven lays out his journey from code monkey to filmmaker and back again. He’s straight-up about it: success is part hustle, part lucky breaks. He’s been through the startup rollercoaster - both the highs and the face-plants - and sees it all as education.
Steven gets raw about his Fox days - wasn’t feeling the whole pump-out-sequels-for-cash vibe, so he bounced back to tech. Launched two startups that went nowhere. His pro tip? Journal those lessons while they’re fresh, and actually listen when people try to school you.
Enter Suka - born from the remote work struggle and the endless quest for focus. Steven borrowed from his film days (where remote work is old news) to build something that helps people dodge distractions and get in the zone. The name? It’s Sanskrit for finding your lane and owning it.
