In this episode of the podcast, I sat down with CEO and Co-Founder of Next Gen HQ, Justin Lafazan, to discuss why he went down the entrepreneurial path as a graduate from Wharton, how young people can achieve the lives they want by "thinking" like entrepreneurs, and how he plans to take his company to a billion-dollar valuation.

Justin is the Co-Founder and CEO of Next Gen HQ with his partner Dylan Gambardella. Growing up, the pair felt a desire to live life on their own terms. Looking for direction, they started asking questions and seeking out peers equally excited about chasing their dreams. In 2014, they started Next Gen HQ to help those just like them - young people looking to design the lives they want to live. What started out as an events and networking business has now exploded to a venture-backed, multi-million dollar company with an online platform called Momentum, an ecosystem that includes the Community, Education, Resources, and Mentorship young leaders need to achieve the success they desire.

In this episode of the podcast, Jesse sits down with Dave Rubin to discuss how he became the public figure he is today, the state of America in the era of Cancel Culture, and what mark he wants to leave on this planet.

Dave is a a New York Times Best Selling author, comedian and political commentator, and the host of The Rubin Report, the largest talk show about free speech and philosophical ideas.

Dave’s journey from a left leaning progressive to a free thinking classical liberal has been quite an adventure. As a gay married man living in America, Dave spent the majority of his adult life subscribing to a certain political belief system based primarily on his immutable characteristics. Fed up with the mainstream media narrative and click-bait news, Dave decided to open up about his awakening, for all to see. He came to realize
that no person or idea should be expected to join a side, but rather they should embrace their status as an individual.

He now feels that the modern left has lost its way by taking political correctness and groupthink to a dangerous level, distracting from the true American dream of the pursuit of life, liberty and happiness.

Dave’s background as a stand up comedian, degree in political science,
and willingness to listen without fighting has uniquely positioned him to tackle big ideas and uncomfortable truths with thought leaders from both sides of the aisle. His show The Rubin Report aims to create civil discourse with people we both agree and disagree with,
and host a dialogue with others whose ideas are judged before being given the chance to be presented in an honest way.

Dave recently joined clinical psychologist and New York Times Best Selling author Dr. Jordan Peterson on his worldwide tour “12 Rules for Life Tour” and performing stand up comedy in cities around the U.S.
