- Adrian Aoun of Forward: My Favorite Books, Tools, Habits and More | 20 Minute PlaybookIn Episode #121, we deconstruct Adrian Aoun's peak performance playbookâfrom his favorite book to the tiny habit that's had the biggest impact on his life. Adrian Aoun is the CEO and Founder of Forward. We cover why medical wearables donât work, focusing on impact, and creating companies that can change the world. âCare deeply about the problem, not about your idea.â â Adrian Aoun EPISODE GUIDE (LINKS, QUOTES, NOTES, AND BOOKS MENTIONED) https://www.danielscrivner.com/notes/adrian-aoun-playbook/ FULL TEXT TRANSCRIPT https://www.danielscrivner.com/notes/adrian-aoun-playbook-transcript/ CHAPTERS In this episode, we deconstruct Adrian Aounâs peak performance playbookâfrom their favorite book to the tiny habit that's had the biggest impact on their life. In it we cover: 00:00:00 â Introduction 00:02:21 â Creating companies that change the world 00:06:07 â On being stubborn and persistent 00:09:51 â Why medical wearables arenât working 00:14:03 â Itâs just as easy to work on something big as something thatâs small 00:16:19 â Everything should relate to the problem 00:17:39 â On fiction and factfulness 00:19:20 â Cycling as meditation 00:20:23 â The only thing that matters is impact ABOUT ADRIAN AOUN Adrian Aoun is the founder and CEO of Forward, which is building an insurance-free healthcare system focused on preventative healthcare from the ground up. Forward was founded in 2017 to invert the typical model of healthcare. Where most healthcare follows the service model, where one patient sees a single doctor only when they need care, Forward is building healthcare focused on health and preventative care. It's productized so you can use it anytime, anywhere. It's scalable so it's affordable for everyone and always on with help available through Forward's app, as well as a network of doctors' offices around the United States, which might sound like, well, how healthcare should have been all along, which is the goal. In this episode, Adrian shares why he's so fanatical about being problem-focused rather than solution-focused and how he runs problem-centric brainstorms at Forward, where the goal is to beat up on other people's ideas in the name of getting to the best ideas. What he learned working with Sergey Brin and Eric Schmidt at Google, as well as the other advisors on the President's Council of Advisors on Science and Technology, why modern fitness wearables are broken, and why Adrian thinks we need to build tools to tell people what to do with that data, not just share the data with them. đ FREE NEWSLETTER https://www.outlieracademy.com/newsletter đ LISTEN ON iTunes: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/outlier-academy/id1523851182 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/58edVNgqaPNaCSGSxM6pef?si=88f37a5d20434775 Overcast: https://overcast.fm/itunes1523851182 ABOUT OUTLIER ACADEMY Learn timeless lessons on work and life from iconic founders, world-renown investors, and bestselling authors.

Robert is the Portfolio Manager at Compound Kings. We cover longevity in investing, source documents, and learning from fintwit. âI wish someone told me that who you work with peer-wise is the number one driver of whether or not you enjoy working or not.â â Robert Cantwell EPISODE GUIDE (LINKS, QUOTES, NOTES, AND BOOKS MENTIONED) https://www.danielscrivner.com/notes/robert-cantwell-playbook FULL TEXT TRANSCRIPT https://www.danielscrivner.com/notes/robert-cantwell-playbook-transcript CHAPTERS In this episode, we deconstruct Robert Cantwellâs peak performance playbookâfrom his favorite book to the tiny habit that's had the biggest impact on his life. In it we cover: (00:00:00) â Introduction (00:02:13) â Longevity in investing (00:03:37) â Investment philosophy at Compound Kings (00:09:05 â Source documents can level up investment knowledge (00:11:23) â Consuming info vs. processing info (00:14:02) â Key tools and learnings from fintwit (00:16:30) â Who you spend your time with is paramount ABOUT ROBERT CANTWELL Robert Cantwell is Founder of Upholdings and Portfolio Manager of Compound Kings, which is an exchange traded fund focused on investing in compounders. I had Robert Cantwell on last year in episode 23, where he joined me shortly after launching Compound Kings in late 2020. Before founding Upholdings and launching Compound Kings, Robert had an incredible career, both as an operator and an investor. Robert started his career as an analyst at Elevation Partners, which was co-founded by U2's lead singer Bono. He then worked at the long short hedge fund Meru Capital before serving as Everlane CFO for five years. Robert founded Upholdings in 2019 and officially launched Compound Kings in late 2020. In this episode, we cover why Robert is obsessed with how we think, process information and make decisions. The single biggest lessons that Robert has taken away from launching and scaling Compound Kings over the last two years, how being a compounding focused investor is different than being solely growth or value focused, why he skips to the back of investment books and goes straight to the source material to form his own opinions about the contents of the book, the investing tools that he and his team use daily at Compound Kings to beat the S&P 500, and his three-step process for consuming thinking through and ultimately coming to conclusions about everything that he reads. đ FREE NEWSLETTER https://www.outlieracademy.com/newsletter đ LISTEN ON iTunes: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/outlier-academy/id1523851182 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/58edVNgqaPNaCSGSxM6pef?si=88f37a5d20434775 Overcast: https://overcast.fm/itunes1523851182 ABOUT OUTLIER ACADEMY Learn timeless lessons on work and life from iconic founders, world-renown investors, and bestselling authors.

Compounders are typically profitable, growing, and generate very high returns on invest capital (ROIC). This is an incredible interview with a true pioneer in the actively managed ETF space. In it, we look back at the top three positions in Compound Kings when Robert and I sat down in early 2021, which feels like a world away, to review the performance of Alibaba, Meta, then Facebook and Berkshire Hathaway. Robert shares the three biggest learnings from the last 18 months including: why you always have to be learning new industries; why you should add a quant to your investment team; and why knowing the people running public companies matters a lot. Robert also walks through his team's thesis on the three largest positions in the fund today, which include Meta, ServiceNow and Adyen. This section of the interview is fantastic so skip ahead and don't miss it if you're short on time. And finally, Robert shares what it's like to build an ETF business scale assets under management and why running an investment business is very similar to an enterprise software business. đ FREE NEWSLETTER https://www.outlieracademy.com/newsletter đ LISTEN ON iTunes: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/outlier-academy/id1523851182 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/58edVNgqaPNaCSGSxM6pef?si=88f37a5d20434775 Overcast: https://overcast.fm/itunes1523851182 ABOUT OUTLIER ACADEMY Learn timeless lessons on work and life from iconic founders, world-renown investors, and bestselling authors.

He spent 10 years building Brainient into one of the leading ad-tech companies in Europe before it was acquired by Teadsâone of the largest advertising platforms in Europe, with 1.8-billion impressions per month. After working with Hospices for Hope, a non-profit in Romania that builds and operates hospices for terminally ill cancer patients, Emi realized that one of the biggest problems with cancer is the lack of a fast, accurate, affordable way to screen for cancer everywhere in the body. He founded Ezra in 2018 to solve this problem using Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Artificial Intelligence. To date, heâs reduced the cost of getting a full-body cancer screening by 80% and reduced the time required to get screened by 66%. đ FREE NEWSLETTER https://www.outlieracademy.com/newsletter đ LISTEN ON iTunes: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/outlier-academy/id1523851182 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/58edVNgqaPNaCSGSxM6pef?si=88f37a5d20434775 Overcast: https://overcast.fm/itunes1523851182 ABOUT OUTLIER ACADEMY Learn timeless lessons on work and life from iconic founders, world-renown investors, and bestselling authors.

As well as how theyâve built an asset light business in healthcare and what it takes to be a software-centric business within a heavily regulated industry. âI realized that the main reason why people die of cancer is because they found it too late.

And so, I decided to focus on that problem.â â Emi Gal EPISODE GUIDE (LINKS, QUOTES, NOTES, AND BOOKS MENTIONED) https://www.danielscrivner.com/notes/ezra-fast-affordable-cancer-screening-outlier-founders FULL TEXT TRANSCRIPT https://www.danielscrivner.com/notes/ezra-fast-affordable-cancer-screening-outlier-founders-transcript/ CHAPTERS (00:00:00) - Introduction (00:01:21) - Origin Story of Ezra (00:03:22) - How Ezra Tried 12 Different Ideas Around Cancer Screening (00:08:22) - Screening for Cancer with Ezra vs Best Practices Today (00:11:01) - MRI 101: A Simple Explanation of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (00:14:45) - The Dawn of Proactive Healthcare and The Patient Will See You Now (00:19:58) - The Hippocratic Oath, Doing No Harm, and Early Screening (00:25:09) - How Often Should We All Be Screening for Cancer?

To do this, theyâve harnessed the power of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, often called an MRI, and dramatically improved the efficiency of imaging and analyses using Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning. To date, theyâve decreased the cost of getting a full body MRI scan by 80% and the time required to get scanned by 66%. Every year, more than 20,000,000 Americans are diagnosed with cancer. Without a fast, accurate, and affordable way to proactively screen the entire body for cancer, many of these diagnoses come too late. For some types of cancer, including colon cancer, once it reaches Stage 4 your chances of survival are just 4%. Ezraâs goal is to bring down the cost and time required to get screened for cancer by an order of magnitudeâreducing both by 90%+. Ezra is an incredible example of using AI and ML to dramatically improve the effectiveness of an existing technology in order to bring down costs within a critical segment of healthcare.
