Big ideas don’t move people, clear pictures do.

This week Shawn sits down with Deb Liu, former President and CEO of Ancestry and Silicon Valley tech leader, to break down a Shawnism that separates visionaries from wishful thinkers: Paint the Picture.

Shawn and Deb break down why great leaders show, not tell, how powerful imagery turns ideas into action, and how praise is infinitely divisible. They also discuss why repetition is a leadership superpower, and how sometimes the smartest move is hiring out the storytelling so your vision actually lands.

This episode perfectly shows that if you want people to follow you, don’t explain the future. Paint it.

What happens when friendship, grit, and 1,000 miles of desert collide?

This week Shawn brings his Baja 1000 race teammates (and lifelong friends) into the studio to relive their latest adrenaline-fueled trip to Mexico. What starts as a race recap quickly turns into a powerful conversation about the Shawnism: “Bring Your Boots.”

From broken pelvises and shattered feet to the unforgettable story of Ryan losing a finger this year, Shawn and the guys don’t hold back. They talk about why they keep racing every year, how to push your limits without losing who you are, and why going far in life almost always means going together.

It’s a raw, hilarious, and surprisingly thoughtful reminder that the best adventures are done with your core people. And as Wade says, “When it comes to truly living, why bury a body you’ve hardly used up?” Strap in because this one hits hard.

What if generosity wasn’t something you waited to “earn”, but something you practiced the moment you could?

This week Shawn catches up with the founder of Fans First Entertainment and the wildly original mind behind the Savannah Bananas, Jesse Cole, to unpack a powerful Shawnism: “If I can afford it for me, I can for others.” Not just financially, but in spirit, effort, and intention.

Shawn and Jesse explore why giving things away often brings more in return, why Jesse refuses to focus on competition, and how long-term fans always beat short-term profits. The two also share why generosity has nothing to do with money and everything to do with how you show up, why the best creators build what they genuinely love, and the philosophical difference between chasing a billion fans and chasing a billion-dollar valuation.

Whether you’re building a brand, a team, or a community, this episode proves that generosity isn’t a cost, it’s the strategy.
