C.E.O. Mindset with James Keyes

In this episode, I sit down with James Keyes - former CEO of 7-Eleven and Blockbuster, bestselling author, and a leader whose journey is defined by resilience, reinvention, and an indomitable spirit. We talk about the hardest chapters of his life, the mindset that allowed him to keep rising, and the discipline required to lead through uncertainty. His story is a masterclass in grit, clarity, and long-horizon thinking. If you’re building something, rebuilding something, or fighting through a difficult season - this conversation will remind you of what’s possible when you refuse to break.
