The Athlete’s Edge: Why Entrepreneurs Should Stay in the Game

What if the skills that make you great at business are the same ones you learned playing sports? In this solo episode of Rich and Remote, Alex Booth explores the surprising connection between sports and entrepreneurship, and why the lessons learned on the field, mountain, court, or trail can have a lasting impact on how you build a business. Drawing from his own experience with competitive snowboarding, Alex shares how repeatedly failing, taking calculated risks, networking, and becoming completely committed to a goal shaped the way he approaches entrepreneurship. He also looks at the growing connection between athletes and successful business leaders, from CEOs with competitive sports backgrounds to entrepreneurs who built businesses around the sports they loved. The conversation goes beyond simply staying active. Alex breaks down three skills he believes sports can develop that directly transfer into entrepreneurship: resilience under repeated failure, comfort with calculated risk, and identity fusion. If you're an entrepreneur, thinking about starting a business, or raising kids who you hope will become confident and resilient adults, this episode offers a different perspective on why sports might be one of the best training grounds for life and business. In this episode: The surprising connection between sports and entrepreneurship Why competitive athletes often develop skills that transfer into business How Alex's snowboarding career shaped his entrepreneurial mindset Why repeated failure can be one of the most valuable things you experience How sports teach you to take calculated risks Why fully identifying with what you're building can be powerful The connection between athletic backgrounds and successful CEOs Why individual sports may develop particularly valuable entrepreneurial skills How sports can help entrepreneurs stay healthy and manage stress Why having an activity outside of work matters How "sweat working" can create unexpected business opportunities Why sports can be a powerful networking tool How Canva's early funding was connected to kite surfing Why parents should consider the long-term lessons their kids can gain from sports Why it's never too late to find a sport that works for you Whether you're already an entrepreneur or simply looking for a better way to build resilience, confidence, and meaningful connections, this episode might make you look at sports a little differently.

Leadership in the Age of AI with David Chung

Why do so many AI rollouts fail, even when everyone has access to the best tools? In this episode of Rich and Remote, Alex and Karla Booth sit down with David Chung, Fractional Chief AI Officer and founder of Kyber5, to explore why AI adoption isn't really a technology problem, it's a leadership problem. While many business owners have already introduced AI tools to their teams, few are seeing meaningful results. David explains why simply adding ChatGPT or Claude to your tech stack isn't enough, and why successful AI adoption starts with trust, communication, and a clear strategy from leadership. The conversation dives into the biggest mistakes companies make when introducing AI, how to create a culture where employees feel safe using it, and why the businesses that thrive won't necessarily be the ones with the best tools but the ones with the most adaptable people. If you're leading a team, running a business, or wondering how AI will reshape the future of work, this episode offers a practical framework for building an AI-enabled organization without losing the human side of your business. In this episode: Why AI adoption is a people problem before it's a technology problem The biggest mistake leaders make when introducing AI to their teams Why AI isn't a "genie" and what business owners should expect instead How to onboard AI the same way you onboard a new employee Why employees often hide their AI usage from leadership The importance of creating psychological safety around AI experimentation How to measure AI success through outcomes instead of usage Why curiosity is becoming a more valuable hiring trait than AI expertise The security risks of "shadow AI" inside organizations David's 90-day framework: Align, Equip, and Prove What leadership must do first before expecting teams to embrace AI Whether you're just beginning your AI journey or trying to improve how your team uses it, this conversation will help you think beyond tools and focus on what actually drives transformation.

How to ACTUALLY Make Millions with Content with Kevin Yee

Most creators don't have a content problem. They have a monetization problem. In this episode of Rich and Remote, Karla Singson Booth and Alex Booth sit down with Kevin Yee, former Head of Sales for Ali Abdaal, who is building his seven-figure YouTube business in public. Kevin shares what he's learning as he grows his creator business, along with the lessons he learned helping scale high-ticket sales for one of YouTube's biggest creators. From building trust before the sales call to designing offers that practically sell themselves, he explains what separates creators who build profitable businesses from those who simply accumulate views. The conversation explores why audience size isn't the metric that matters most, how founders should think about delegating sales, and why the strongest creator businesses are built around solving one clear problem instead of chasing viral content. If you're building a personal brand, growing a YouTube channel, or using content to attract clients, this episode offers practical insights on turning attention into a sustainable business. In this episode: Why millions of views don't always mean millions of dollars The difference between entertainment content and revenue-generating content How creators can build offers that naturally convert What Kevin learned leading sales for Ali Abdaal Why trust matters more than aggressive sales tactics When Founders should stop selling everything themselves How customer success supports long-term business growth The role of personal branding in high-ticket sales Why content should solve problems not just attract attention The biggest mistakes creators make when trying to monetize their audience If you're creating content to grow your business, not just your following, this episode will help you think differently about sales, positioning, and long-term growth.

3 Real Reasons Why You Work 60+ Hours a Week

What if burnout is not just a time management problem? In this solo episode of Rich and Remote, Karla Singson Booth gets honest about something a lot of entrepreneurs quietly normalize: being constantly busy, constantly tired, and somehow still feeling behind. Instead of giving another surface-level productivity checklist, Karla goes deeper, into founder burnout and the real culprits underneath. She unpacks why some founders struggle to delegate, why "high standards" can sometimes hide something else entirely, and why certain business models keep people trapped in overwork no matter how disciplined they try to be. Here's what you'll learn: How to spot when burnout isn't about your time management, it's about your business model. Why delegation without guilt matters more than grinding harder. And how to build a sustainable entrepreneurship practice that doesn't demand you sacrifice everything to make it work. This episode is especially for founders who have built something real, but are starting to realize that the way they are working may not be sustainable. If you're overwhelmed, exhausted, and wondering if there's a better structure underneath all this, this one's for you. In this Episode:  why burnout is often deeper than a calendar problem the hidden identity issues behind not delegating what ego can look like when disguised as “high standards” why some founders struggle to hire great people how certain offers create burnout by design the difference between building a business and building a well-paid trap the question every founder should ask if they want more freedom If you’ve been telling yourself you just need to be more disciplined, this episode may help you look at the problem differently.

Thoughts on Leaving Your Hometown

What happens when the place that shaped you is also the place you feel called to outgrow? In this episode of Rich and Remote, Alex and Karla Booth talk about something deeply personal for both of them: leaving their hometowns, building a life elsewhere, and making peace with what that decision gives and takes away. From Idaho to Davao, from Seattle to Thailand to Mexico, this conversation moves through the emotional and practical sides of leaving home. They unpack the pressure to stay, the reasons people go, the identity shifts that come with starting over, and why sometimes leaving is not rejection, but expansion. This episode is especially for anyone who has ever felt torn between comfort and growth, family and freedom, roots and reinvention. In this episode: how success can look completely different depending on where you grew up the fear of leaving, and the fear of staying too long what changes when your income is no longer tied to one place the skills that actually transfer into a remote life the hidden emotional cost of leaving your hometown why identity can feel shaky after a big move what made leaving worth it for both Alex and Karla practical advice for anyone thinking about making a move If you’ve been wondering whether leaving home would change your life for the better, this one might stay with you.

The ROI of PR is Forever with Bryce North

What if PR is not just about visibility but about building the kind of trust that keeps paying you back for years? In this episode of Rich and Remote with Alex and Karla Booth, Alex and Karla sit down with Bryce North, founder of Don’t Be A Little Pitch, to talk about what PR really does for a business when it’s done well. Bryce shares why most founders think about PR the wrong way, why trust beats leads in the early stages, and how earned media can shape everything from partnerships and sales conversations to hiring and authority in your space. This is a really good episode for founders, coaches, consultants, personal brands, and online business owners who know they need visibility, but want visibility that actually compounds. In this episode: Why PR should not be judged like paid ads How earned media creates trust that compounds over time The difference between attention, credibility, and actual authority Why partnerships can be one of the biggest hidden returns of PR How PR helps pre-frame trust before a sales call even happens The role of vulnerability, story, and personality in getting noticed Why founders with imposter syndrome still need to learn to tell their story How strong PR can shape who reaches out to work with you, buy from you, or partner with you If you’ve ever wondered whether PR is really worth it — or how to think about it beyond short-term leads — this episode will give you a much better lens.

The State of Social Media in 2026 with Kate Buck Jr.

The State of Social Media in 2026 with Social Media OG Kate Buck Jr. Everyone published their "2026 trends" list in January. Then they stopped paying attention. The problem is that the year already moved. What looked true in Q1 is not what's actually showing up in the data now, and the gap between the two is where most personal brands are about to lose six months they can't get back. So we did something different. We pulled the real numbers from Hootsuite, Sprout Social, and Metricool's study of more than 39 million posts, then sat down with someone who has watched every algorithm shift since 2008 to make sense of it. Here's the part we'll say out loud: the things winning in the back half of 2026 are the exact things AI cannot fake. One of them is hiding in plain sight, and most people are doing the opposite of what the data rewards. We name it in the episode. About my guest: Kate Buck Jr. Kate Buck Jr., known online as @katebuckjr or simply "KBJ," has been called the Godmother of Social Media, and the title is earned. She got her start on Twitter in 2008, accidentally built a reputation as a social media expert by answering questions, and within 18 months was earning more than double her previous income. That accident became an empire. Today the numbers speak for themselves. She has trained over 50,000 social media managers and built a boutique agency serving names like Keala Kanae, Perry Belcher, Mark Moss, and Russell Brunson. She has consulted with top brands and spoken on stages worldwide, including SXSW and the Traffic & Conversion Summit. She is the founder and CEO of Social Media Pro, the certification her students proudly display on their profiles year after year, and she runs it all as a full-time digital nomad. She has also burned it down and rebuilt more than once, which is exactly why her read on what's coming next is worth more than a recycled trends post. Kate doesn't guess from vibes. She's been reading the signals for almost two decades. I’m lucky enough to have spent a huge chunk of my life with her, as best friends, since 2021. Fun fact: She was my maid-of-honor for my 2023 Mexico wedding! Kate and I nerd out on social media a lot, and this time, you get to be the fly on the wall.  Why you'll want to hear this one If you have a personal brand and you use it to make money, this is the strategy session you didn't schedule but needed. We get into why the aesthetic influencer is quietly losing ground, why posting more is the wrong instinct right now, and the one format that has become completely human-proof. There's also a prediction about where the smart money is moving its budget before Q4, and a platform shift that has every agency scrambling for a point of view. We tell you what it is. We don't tell you what to do about it. That part's the conversation. Press play. Bring a notebook. This is the episode that decides how your next six months go.
