单集简介 ...

Entrepreneur, author, and podcaster Tim Ferriss joins Guy on the Advice Line to answer questions from three early-stage founders. Plus, Tim shares the inspiration behind his latest venture, Coyote—a 10-minute card game that encourages time spent with friends and family. First, Lauryn from San Francisco asks about the best way to scale her biodegradable ear plugs in two very different directions. Then Emily from Kansas City weighs whether DTC or wholesale is where to focus her accessory brand after Taylor Swift wore one of her rings and sales exploded. And finally, Kimberly in Woolwich, Maine wonders how to incentivize her customers to pre-order her high-quality, sustainable, clothing.  Thank you to the founders of GOB, EB & Co, and K. Becker Designs for being a part of our show.

  • Building a marketplace is easy.

  • Building one with a soul is hard.

  • In an industry where healthcare is being handed over to AI and algorithms,

  • Mochi Health's founder, Myra Ahmad, saw a gap that needed fixing.

  • She built a positive disruptor that proves you can scale technology without losing humanity.

  • Mochi is already a powerhouse in weight loss.

  • They've helped 400,000 members lose over 5 million pounds.

  • But Mochi has evolved into a comprehensive healthcare marketplace covering over 120 conditions

  • from longevity and nutrition to hair care, menopause, and mental health.

  • The foundation of this platform is the human-doctor connection.

  • At Mochi, every member gets a one-on-one evaluation with their physician and a personalized medication plan.

  • It's the perfect marriage of growing technology and the ancient foundation of medicine, the doctor-patient bond.

  • Join the movement at joinmochi.com.

  • That's J-O-I-N-M-O-C-H-I dot com.

  • Before every interview I do, there's a mountain of material.

  • Books, notes, transcripts, research.

  • And the difference between a good conversation

  • and a great one usually comes down to how well I've absorbed all that stuff.

  • Lately, I've been using the new Kindle Scribe to do some of that work.

  • It lets me read and annotate everything in one place, especially PDFs.
