Über diesen Titel

 Yes, it’s possible to be successful AND happy. This podcast will show you how. Hosted by serial entrepreneur and lawyer, Brian H. Potts, and top self-compassion and leadership of self expert, Elizabeth Pyjov, this podcast will teach you how to be successful—and be happy. Elizabeth Pyjov is a founder, CEO, theologian, lawyer, facilitator, published poet, and business school faculty who holds three Harvard degrees, speaks five languages, has lived in seven countries, and has created over a hundred different programs for happiness, energy, connection, and resilience. Through her organization Lead with Compassion, she has reached over 20,000 people. Brian H. Potts is a partner with Husch Blackwell but is best known for being a mentor and a connector. He serves as a resource to anyone he can help in any way. He loves connecting clients and potential clients with investors and likely business partners (as well as other lawyers), and as the founder and board chair of The Legal Mentor Network. As a law student, Brian was rejected by each of the top 100 law firms in the U.S.—including the one where he made equity partner less than a decade later. After posting about this experience on LinkedIn in 2020, he found himself inundated with requests for mentorship. Over the next few months, he built a nationwide network of attorneys willing to mentor law students and recent J.D. grads—which formed the beginning of the now-nationwide Legal Mentor Network. Brian has since connected thousands of mentors and protégés through the program, personally mentored more than 1,000 individuals, and helped thousands of others obtain mentorship.Copyright 2025 All rights reserved.

  • Startup Advice for Founders: Services vs Products, Funding Basics, and Staying Sane

    Startup Advice for Founders: Services vs Products, Funding Basics, and Staying Sane
    Jan 15 2026
    In Give & Receive Podcast Episode 8, hosts Brian Potts and Elizabeth Pyjov take a practical turn into the real-world startup playbook—covering the fundamentals most founders don’t think about early enough. Brian breaks down startup terminology in plain English, including services vs. product businesses, why product companies are often harder to scale, and what people actually mean when they say SaaS (software as a service). They also unpack the funding ladder—angel investors vs. venture capital (VC) vs. private equity—and explain how raising money works (and what “dilution” really means). Elizabeth brings the founder mindset: how to avoid burnout, reduce attachment to one outcome, and “ride the wave” through pivots, uncertainty, and the emotional roller coaster of entrepreneurship—while staying grounded. What “startup” really means (and why it applies to more businesses than you think) Services vs. products: which business model is easier—and why What SaaS means and why it can change the economics of a business The hidden reality of product businesses: inventory, cash flow, and risk The investor landscape: angel vs VC vs private equity Incorporation basics: what a company is, shares, and how founders set it up Founder mental health: non-attachment, pivots, and staying steady under pressure A “Give & Receive” story on how generosity created unexpected opportunities If you’re building a business, thinking about launching a side hustle, or trying to understand startup language without the jargon—this episode is for you.

  • Healing Healthcare: Urvashi Bhatnagar on Population Health, Venture Capital & The Power of Giving

    Healing Healthcare: Urvashi Bhatnagar on Population Health, Venture Capital & The Power of Giving
    Dec 11 2025
    In Episode 6 of the Give and Receive Podcast, hosts Brian Potts and Elizabeth Pyjov sit down with health-science leader and venture capitalist Urvashi Bhatnagar to explore how giving can reshape healthcare, business, and our inner lives. Urvashi shares her journey from physical therapist in India treating post-polio patients to founding the Good Science Fund, a venture fund focused on population health and solutions that transform lives at scale. She explains what a venture fund actually does in simple terms, how she evaluates early-stage health-related startups, and why social determinants of health (housing, income, environment, education) matter just as much as traditional medical care. Along the way, the conversation dives into: How early experiences in a polio ward in New Delhi shaped her belief in giving and system-level change Why investing in environmental and social factors is real healthcare, not just charity The connection between air pollution, environmental law, and population health How value-based care and modern healthcare models are (slowly) catching up to whole-person wellness Brian also tells a viral story about how he literally grew 1.5 inches at age 46 by using ChatGPT-prescribed posture exercises to correct a lifelong spinal curve – a fun example of digital tools intersecting with health, movement, and daily life. Elizabeth shares how her company Happiness Sangha helps high-achieving professionals (law partners, PE executives, and more) transform their inner world through structured year-long programs in self-compassion, mindfulness, and emotional resilience—and why true change in the outer world starts by healing the inner one. Urvashi closes with powerful stories of “give and receive” in real life: staying late to support patients and staff, focusing on outcomes beyond billable hours, and then unexpectedly receiving kindness back years later from people she helped—sometimes in the most everyday ways (like a ride, childcare, or a few dollars at a parking gate). If you’re interested in: Healthcare innovation & population health Venture capital in health & wellness Social determinants of health (SDOH) Mindfulness, self-compassion, and emotional well-being How giving comes back around in surprising ways …this episode will really resonate. 🎧 Listen / Follow: 👉 Subscribe to Give and Receive for more conversations at the intersection of giving, purpose, health, and leadership.
