  • Audacious Confidence: Building for Justice in Business and Community
    Feb 3 2026

    In today’s episode, Nathan Stuck sits down with J. Dontrese Brown, Founder and CEO of BROWNBAYLOR™, to unpack what he is doing to reimagine leadership through the lens of purpose, courage, and justice.

    Dontrese is a creative strategist who "fell into" a deeper calling of community and civic leadership after realizing that corporate notoriety wasn't enough to satisfy his "Why." He is on a relentless pursuit to help others maximize their potential.

    Nathan and Dontrese explore the concept of Audacious Confidence—the unshakable belief that every action we take creates a ripple effect for future generations. Dontrese also gives us a sneak peek into his upcoming book, Build for Justice, which serves as a call to action for leaders to lead with both their minds and their hearts.

  • No Margin, No Mission: Capitalist Success and Social Impact
    Jan 13 2026

    How do you build a business that scales its impact without running its leader into the ground?

    In today’s episode, Nathan Stuck sits down with Peter Georgariou, Founder and CEO of KarmaDharma, to unpack what he is doing to build a "Deloitte for do-gooders" while maintaining a raw, human approach to leadership. Peter is a social purpose entrepreneur based in Ottawa who helps organizations strengthen their strategy and culture through internal alignment that holds up under pressure.

    Nathan and Peter explore the "sobering" side of social impact work—the burnout and anxiety that often hide behind the facade of purpose—and why building a profitable, sustainable bottom line is the strongest form of advocacy for the B Corp movement. Peter shares his personal journey through a high-stakes corporate career in radio to founding a mission-driven agency that prioritizes human connection over "formulaic" leadership.

    In this episode, you will learn:

    • Why the "B" in B Corp shouldn't be a taboo word and the importance of capitalist acumen in driving social good.
    • How to lead teams with radical trust, including Peter's experience with unlimited time-off policies and "dormant" seasons for human performance.
    • Practical ways to activate the B Corp community by intentionally choosing values-aligned suppliers.
    • Peter’s "inside out" approach to leadership, navigating a cancer scare, and learning to lead with more trust and less control.

  • Crafting a "Why" That Actually Connects with Ashley Bryant
    Nov 18 2025

    How do you build an authentic brand story when you're still figuring out your "why"? This week, Nathan is joined by storyteller and "accidental entrepreneur" Ashley Bryant for an incredibly open and powerful conversation. Ashley shares her unbelievable journey of resilience and reinvention—from navigating a life-changing multiple sclerosis diagnosis and relearning her own identity to moving to China and getting stranded back in the U.S. at the start of the pandemic.

    This path led her to discover her "through line": helping sustainable, mission-driven brands tell their stories. Ashley gives us the "dos and don'ts" of impact storytelling, challenging founders to get beyond the buzzwords and ask themselves one blunt question: "Why should I give a shit?". This episode is a must-listen for any leader who wants to craft a message that truly connects.
