This week on Spin It, Stephynie is speaking with Nathan Chan!
Nathan’s journey started off like so many of the other stories you hear out there. He got an IT degree because he believed it was the best degree to set him up for the future. He proceeded to get a job in IT and instantly hated it. So in order to break away from the misery, he headed off to Europe. While in Europe he had an epiphany and makes the decision not return to the job he dreads so much.
Fast forward, Nathan takes a leap of faith and bootstraps what we know today as Foundr magazine on less than three thousand dollars and takes it from idea to inception in just 4 months.
Today, Foundr is much more than the magazine it started off as. Foundr has grown into a digital content empire and serves as a major resource for today’s entrepreneurs and business owners of the future.
On today’s episode, they take an intimate look into Nathan’s journey and find out how he was able to turn several obstacles along the way into opportunities and ultimately find a way to spin life in his direction!

This week on Spin It! Stephynie is speaking with Kara Goldin, founder of Hint Water. For those of you who have not tasted Hint Water, Hint is an unsweetened flavored beverage.
When Kara launched Hint she actually launched it from her garage with the support of her husband Theo. Kara’s story is brillant. Her tenacity, grit and ability to never take no for an answer will deeply inspire you!
Her book, “Undaunted” was one of my favorite books to light a fire under anyone who is stalling! Her message, “START NOW - get out there and TRY! It wont be easy, and it wont be straight but failing is not an option, now or ever.”

This week on Spin It! Stephynie is speaking with THE MARK METRY- If you have not heard of Mark or are not familiar with his work, you are in for a treat. Mark's parents immigrated from Egypt, he is first generation here in the US. Mark was so painfully shy due to various issues like mental health, social anxiety, and feeling like he just didn't quite fit in.
However, Mark prevailed! Today he is a Forbes Featured TedX speaker, host of a global top 100 podcast and a best selling author- BUT, that is not what I am most excited about. What I am most excited about is who Mark is, and how he is constantly and consistently giving back.
He has dedicated his life to being of service to others by making an impact in the industries of mental health, career enablement, mindset, health & wellness, storytelling, and more...
I'm not sure I have interviewed such an inspirational 25 year old. He has been featured on over 250+ podcasts and media like Forbes, Mindvalley, Influencive, Inc Magazine, Huff Post, Fearless Motivation, Spartan and many others. He has also interviewed top names such as Tim Ferriss, NPR, Lewis Howes & Gary Vaynerchuk.

This week on Spin It! Stephynie we will be speaking with Jon Ferrara Founder and CEO of Nimble. Jon is considered to be an early pioneer in the CRM space and was the Co-Founder of Goldmine Software Corporation. Ten years following the acquisition of GoldMine in 2000, Jon returned to the start-up world revolutionizing customer relationships AGAIN by founding the relationship-focused CRM Nimble.
While Jon’s been recognized by Forbes as one of the Top 10 Social CEOs in the World as well as Top 100 Marketing Influencers, his rise to the top wasn’t without its share of struggles, and personal challenges that resulted in nearly a decade long absence from the tech space.
In this episode, they discuss Jon betting on himself and leaving his job at 28, the incredible story of starting Goldmine in an apartment with a buddy from college with only 5,000 dollars to their name, and how his life would never be the same again after doctors found a tumor on his brain in 2000.
But through it all, Jon was able to turn all of these obstacles into opportunities and truly found a way to take control and “spin” life in his direction!
