40:48

In this episode of the Innovators and Investors Podcast, host Kristian Marquez welcomes Ralph Groce, an angel investor and partner at Scroobious.

Scroobious aims to bridge the gap between these talented founders and a vast network of angel investors, tackling misconceptions about perceived risks associated with diverse entrepreneurs. Ralph shares his journey into angel investing, which was influenced by his father’s early investment education and his own entrepreneurial experiences. He emphasizes the importance of team dynamics, problem-solving relevance, and execution capabilities when assessing potential investments. Additionally, the discussion touches on the growing significance of AI in various sectors, especially financial services, indicating it as a transformative force for the future.

Today, we’re diving into one of the hardest kinds of forgiveness—the kind we give ourselves. We all carry parts of our past that still tug at our hearts. Maybe it’s a decision we regret, time we can’t get back, or words we wish we’d said—or not said. The truth is, we’ve all lived through moments that shaped us. Some made us stronger.

In this episode I want to talk about why we create New Year's Resolutions and what happens after that. Is the reason as simple as the hope for a fresh start? Is it our getting caught up in the excitement of the moment? Maybe it is the symbolic clean slate a new year provides, or simply the pull of tradition? I want to talk about these questions. I also want to look at the motivations behind resolutions and the challenges of sticking to them.…

New Beginnings 33:32

for 48 weeks siden33:32

33:32

This is my first podcast “New beginnings.” That seemed like a good title for it given that getting to this point had more twist and turns than the “Tail of the Dragon.” In case you don’t know about the “Tail of the Dragon” all you really need to know is that it has 318 curves in eleven miles. Anyway, I completed my journey to this point and now everyone can listen to “New Beginnings.” I am going to talk about why it took me over two years to get to this point. How I felt when facing self-doubt multiple times. My starts and stops. I am also going to talk about what we are going to do moving forward. Everything I intend to do is about us making each other better in our personal, professional, and spiritual lives. I know we can help each other, and both get better one step at a time.…
