What Drives Us to Do This: The Real Why Behind the FreshMinds Podcast | Ep. 13

What if before starting any new team, project, or partnership, you asked the questions that actually matter? Not what is our mission or what are our KPIs, but why do we genuinely want this to exist? What do we each personally need from it? What would make this one of the best parts of our week? Episode thirteen of FreshMinds Podcast is unlike any other in the series. Instead of talking about how to design great collaboration, Mitch Simon, Ronen Gafni, and Simcha Gluck actually do it, live on the podcast, in real time. The topic: the podcast itself. Why does it exist? What does each host personally need from it? And what does a collaborative quest really mean when three people who genuinely care about each other decide to build something together? In this episode: Why Mitch, Ronen, and Simcha started this podcast and what keeps them coming back The collaborative quest: what Fresh Biz calls the shared mission that makes a team more than just a group of individuals Why Ronen says the podcast helps him package his weekly experiences and move his thinking forward Why Simcha compares coming back to record as simply coming home What Mitch personally needs: to become a better facilitator for the teams he serves The questions every team should ask before starting anything: why do we really want this? What do we each need? What would make this great? Why the best collaborations are not always built on business strategy but on friendship, care, and a shared fire How putting content out into the world creates ripple effects you may not feel for seven years Why the most human conversations are also the most strategically sound This episode is a genuine window into what it looks like when a team practices what it teaches. Honest, warm, and one of the most memorable in the series. FreshMinds Podcast is hosted by Mitch Simon, leadership coach and retreat facilitator at Simon Leadership Alliance, alongside Ronen Gafni, creator of the FreshBiz business game and TEDx speaker, and Simcha Gluck, co-founder of FreshBiz and co-author of The New Entrepreneurs.
