I interview Nate about why he is always a customer of a product before he works or invests in the company that creates that product. We also talk about nature, fitness, ego, the gold rush and much more.

I think you can learn a lot virtually, so you can basically map out a landscape of a space you're interested in, which in the past was hard to do. Right. So you can basically spend a bunch of time just learning and understanding the language and who are the players. You can do that remotely. And then you need to essentially provide some value in some way. And then I do believe there's nothing that beats human interaction.

Stewart Alsop III00:33

Hi, my name is Stuart Alsop, and this is my podcast, Crazy Wisdom, where I interview creative people about how they work with and manage the stress that is inherent in creative work. What I've realized over the past 10 years of my research is that anybody who is creating something of value that is significantly different from what has come before is considered crazy. Most of us have a fear, an ingrained fear of going crazy. So what I'm saying is grab onto that fear, realize that it's there, and just go with it. Because the problems we're going to be facing over the next 20 years require crazy people in order to solve them. Foreign. So welcome to the Crazy Wisdom podcast. My guest here is Nate Bossard and I'll let him introduce himself.

Yeah, my name is Nate Bossard, entrepreneur, investor, co creator, co founder of Tonal most recently. And I've spent a bunch of time at various consumer brands and kind of also kind of on the investing side. And then I'm also have been kind of like indoctrinated into a bunch of family business stuff that I've been involved in since I was a little kid. So that's my high level. But I don't self identify by the work I do.
