Outliers Do & Thrive in What Others Call Unconventional | Unni Rav | Shawn Flynn | Abhi Prakash | Ep 951

from Outlier's Edge Podcast with Niiamah Ashong

"Specialization is for insects. You can be an investment banker and an actor. A Navy SEAL and an author. A film director and a football coach. Don't buy into the myth that you have to over-specialize." – Abhi PrakashJoin Niiamah (@niiamahashong) and three outliers who are building worlds from scratch, Unni Rav, Shawn Flynn and Abhi Prakash. In this episode, they go all the way in on the thing nobody talks about enough: what it actually takes to keep growing when the problems get bigger, the stakes get higher, and you're doing something most people around you have never done before. From M&A deals that carry the weight of 200 families, to standing in front of a camera for the second time ever, to coaching JV basketball while building AI companies. This one hits different.Welcome to the Outlier's Edge Podcast, hosted by Niiamah Ashong, Founder of Outlier's Edge and Sherpa of the World of Difference. On this podcast, you'll join other high-performing unconventional leaders and entrepreneurs (aka Outliers) as they talk about leveraging what makes them different to make a difference in the world.--Check out the video episode on YouTube!--Timestamps:00:00 Meet today's three outliers01:45 Unni Rav: indie films and grit04:10 Shawn explains M&A like life06:54 What gives you sweaty palms11:27 Shawn: stakes are not abstract15:25 Abhi: plan your life quarterly18:50 Unni: wealth is not just money23:01 Growth vs results tension31:28 Shawn's secret mastermind method35:54 Abhi: specialization is for insectsEnter Unni Rav's World:Facebook | Instagram | LinkedIn | YouTube | WebsiteEnter Shawn Flynn's World:LinkedIn | YouTube | WebsiteEnter Abhi Prakash's World:Instagram | LinkedIn | YouTube | WebsiteContinue into Outlier's Edge World:Facebook | Instagram | LinkedIn | Youtube | Website | Guild CommunityDisclaimer:The views expressed in this podcast are for informational purposes only.
