Welcome to “Wow, We Never Thought About It This Way!”

Imagine introducing yourself at COP as a future Nobel Peace Prize winner for solving climate change. That’s exactly what my guest, Chris Frolic, did — and not one person doubted him.

Chris’s journey is a story you don’t hear every day: a high school dropout who went from DJing raves to hypnotizing comedy audiences to co-founding a multimillion-dollar tech company. He’s someone who doesn’t wait for permission or “feel ready” to show up. Instead, Chris creates his own game, and here’s the rule: he wins the moment he decides to play.

We dive deep into how Chris turned what others might label as weaknesses — his “weirdness,” his continuous reinventions — into his greatest strengths. At COP, he wasn’t there to analyze molecules or rising oceans; he showed up as a walking demonstration of what it means to chase an impossible goal and make it seem possible.

There’s more.
