In this episode, Kristian Marquez is joined by James Paul Costa, founder of Grapetree Ventures. Drawing on a background that includes the Naval Academy and early-stage tech growth, James breaks down the psychological frameworks necessary for elite leadership. They discuss the "Clock on the Wall" strategy for conflict resolution, the importance of "re-attachment" in habit formation, and why solving the world's biggest problems might actually be easier than solving small ones.
