Derek Haswell: Why Founders Feel Lost After Success - Money Stories Ep 15
Épisode 15
vendredi 20 juin 2025 • Durée 59:52
When Derek Haswell co-founded Ten Percent Happier, he wasn’t chasing profit, he was chasing peace. What he didn’t realize was that the drive powering his every move wasn’t purpose… it was unworthiness.
In this conversation, Derek opens the hood on his journey; from growing up in a home where money was never discussed, to building a mission-driven company that served millions, to quietly unraveling at the height of “success.” What followed was a retreat-induced reckoning, a season of depression, and a reorientation toward enoughness.
We unpack:
• Why founders often ignore money until it's too late
• The moment Derek realized his entire drive was rooted in shame
• What it really means to lead from a place of worth
• The “crater” moment that birthed Ten Percent Happier
• How clean and dirty fuel show up in entrepreneurship (and why both matter)
• The unseen cost of excluding yourself from your mission
About Derek Haswell:
Derek Haswell is a product builder, meditation advocate, and co-founder of Ten Percent Happier. For over a decade, he helped shape the intersection of mindfulness and tech, building tools that demystify inner work without losing depth. Today, he coaches high-performing founders who want to lead from a place of alignment, not achievement. His work is less about scaling businesses and more about scaling wholeness.
The truth? You can build something beautiful for the world and still burn yourself out doing it. This episode is a map for founders who feel that tension… and are ready to choose differently.

Carm Huntress: He Sacrificed Health, Marriage, and Identity to ‘Make It’ - Money Stories Ep 14
Épisode 14
vendredi 13 juin 2025 • Durée 53:24
At 15, Carm Huntress lost both his parents to cancer. By 45, he had founded two nine-figure companies. But the path between those moments wasn’t paved with strategy—it was survival, trauma, and a hunger to feel like he was enough.
In this raw conversation, Carm opens up about what it cost to build a company from darkness—and what it took to finally lead from light. We explore the invisible forces that drive founders, the false gods of hustle culture, and the quiet unraveling that often follows external success.
This isn’t a story about scaling—it’s a story about shedding. About facing the hard truth that even when you “win,” it might not be your life you're building.
We unpack:
• How Carm turned grief into his first startup—and why distraction became his lifeline
• The near-collapse of RxRevu, and why he bet everything he had (and lost almost all of it)
• The boardroom moment that shattered his identity—and what rose from the wreckage
• The shift from people-pleasing to value-aligned leadership
• How Credo Health is using AI to transform “sick care” into true healthcare
• Why your greatest trauma might also be your deepest gift
About Carm Huntress:
Carm Huntress is a mission-driven founder and technologist who’s spent 20+ years building ventures that challenge the healthcare status quo. He was the Founding CEO of RxRevu, pioneering real-time prescription benefit tools now used nationwide. Today, as CEO of Credo Health, he’s tackling one of healthcare’s biggest blindspots—fragmented patient data—by giving providers a full clinical picture before a patient even walks in.
His fire used to be fueled by pain. Now, it’s powered by purpose.
Listen and let it shift you. This isn’t just about business—it’s about building a life that’s actually yours.

Popcorn in hot dog buns. Running to Oklahoma. Living on one salary while building a business worth tens of millions.

Seth Conger: Escaping the Hustle Trap - Money Stories Ep 11
vendredi 23 mai 2025 • Durée 01:01:38
At age 14, Seth Conger made $225 in tips on his third day working at a golf course—and unknowingly walked into a trap that would define the next two decades of his life.
His boss told him, “If I don’t see you sprinting, I assume you’re not working.” That offhand comment became his operating system. And like a lot of high-achievers, Seth built an identity on speed, sacrifice, and showing his value through effort alone.
But eventually, the hustle stopped working. In this conversation, Seth unpacks the uncomfortable truths that forced him to evolve—from proving himself to building systems, from over-functioning to operating with leverage.
We unpack:
• The hidden cost of external validation—and how to reclaim your value without someone else’s permission
• Why “just work harder” is the ceiling, not the strategy
• The $225 day that built a work addiction (and what finally broke it)
• How the Sauna Squad became a world-class accountability engine
• The two biggest mistakes founders make when scaling—and what elite operators do differently
• A new definition of wealth that balances money, time, impact, and relationships
True wealth isn’t found in the sprint. It’s built in the space you create when you finally stop running.
About Seth Conger:
Seth Conger has spent the last decade proving that medicine doesn’t have to be reactive—or broken. After scaling a seven-figure Functional Medicine clinic to exit and co-founding the first venture-backed Alzheimer’s reversal startup, he turned his focus to building the business infrastructure for the post-sick care model. Seth is the COO of Freedom Practice Coaching, Vibility, and Aptogenix—an ecosystem of companies designed to equip practitioners with the tools, technology, and strategic support needed to reclaim their time and transform patient lives. His mission is simple: make chronic disease optional.
