What does it take to lead—and live—when the world won’t sit still?

Hosted by executive advisor and bestselling author James Allen, Founder’s Mentality: The CEO Sessions is a leadership development podcast that goes beyond the boardroom.

Each episode features a conversation with a prominent CEO—from the likes of Audible, Walmart, and AWS—who reflects on the lessons that reshaped their business and their personal growth. But you won’t just hear from business leaders. Jimmy brings in artists, musicians, comedians, and other unconventional thinkers who explore the same lessons through a completely different lens.

These conversations surface aha moments from some of the world’s most influential leaders and thinkers. Intensely curious and open to new experiences and perspectives, they seek inspiration in unexpected places as they constantly reinvent their businesses and themselves.

In turn, you’ll walk away with a fresh take on how we all grow as individuals, what we are capable of building, and the legacy we leave behind.

So, whether you’re a CEO, a rising executive, or simply passionate about leadership, influence, and business at scale, this podcast will challenge and inspire you—one story at a time.

Founder's Mentality: The CEO Sessions was recognized with the Platinum 2026 AVA Digital Award for Outstanding Host.
