If you are a regular listener to the program…we love to ask our guests when they have trouble thriving who or what do they turn to to get back on the Thriving Track. The responses always vary and show how unique, authentic and inspiring our incredible guests really are. Back in 2017 I had THEE Phil M. Jones on the program.  Phil is an amazing speaker, a brilliant thinker, a rock-star sales trainer and a personal friend of Lou. Check out how Phil answered what he turns to … which is a poem called ‘IF’ - one that he wrote at a moment in his life when he actually wasn’t thriving. Phil’s got a new book coming out in October 2018 called ‘Exactly Where to Start’ which will include this very poem. Enjoy this Minisode with Phil M. Jones. Thrive LOUD!

Greg Larkin​ began his entrepreneurial life in 2006 when he nearly got fired from an investment start-up, Innovest, for publicly predicting that the booming housing market would collapse. (He wasn't, and it did). As his prediction came true, Innovest’s sales skyrocketed, leading to a $16 million acquisition in 2009. After the buy-out Greg made the tough transition from startup entrepreneur to corporate intrapreneur, learning how to move fast in companies that are often slow, cautious, and hierarchical. Since then, he has built more than thirty products for companies like Google, PWC, Nestle and Bloomberg. He is the founder of Bowery315, a product consultancy which launches new products for huge companies in eight weeks. He is also the Director of Innovation for Spring Design Partners. His new, best-selling book “This Might Get Me Fired” offers an insider perspective on how to thrive as an entrepreneur in a company that’s more afraid of change than extinction. The book has been called “bold,” “practical,” “cou

ANDY LANDORF, writer, was a veteran of the ad wars for 39 long and (occasionally) wonderful years.  He prefers wearing his heart on his sleeve and insists that is why he never learned to play poker.  He loves comics and making people laugh but says he’s mainly in this for the money (silly boy). He gives this dire warning:  If you are with me, near me or within earshot of me, you are fodder for this strip. JOHN COLQUHOUN, writer/illustrator and fellow veteran of the ad wars, prefers to keep his heart in his chest (where it belongs).  John enjoys ballroom dancing, carving humorous pumpkins and training his pet flamingo. Actually, only one of those things is true. As if working on this strip didn’t keep him busy enough, John also creates political (and apolitical) cartoons, designs animated characters and is working on several children’s books. On alternate nights, he actually sleeps. Together they are the creators of the The New 60 Comic that's about what it's like to be 60, right now. Hear them chat with Lou D
