Dr. Mo is the author of Freedom to Shift, and this conversation earns every word of that title. Jerry opens up about one of the rawest chapters of his life: being hospitalized 71 times, carrying 110 extra pounds, living on 19 medications, quitting 200mg of oxymorphone cold turkey after a 25-year addiction, and the moment in November 2021 when he was down four pints of blood and chose not to die.

What Nobody Tells You About Selling Your Business show art What Nobody Tells You About Selling Your Business

The Kronos Group Podcast

Marvin Karlow has been on both sides of the table. He built a manufacturing business out of distressed private equity, grew it, merged it, and sold it to a publicly traded acquirer. Then he watched too many business owners in the $1M to $50M range get underserved at the exit and decided to do something about it. He runs Raincatcher, and he runs closed bid auctions the way investment banks do it for big deals, except for the business owners everyone else ignores. Jerry and Marvin break down the real M&A process, not the version you read about in Forbes, but the version that actually applies...

The Kronos Group Podcast

Alan Lazaros was on paper doing everything right at 26. Global top earner, debt paid off, money invested. A head-on crash changed all of it — and forced him to ask the question he had been avoiding: was he actually living at his potential, or just performing for an audience that did not matter?
