About this episode
In this episode, I catch up with Joe Bryan to dive into his fascinating journey from studying physics to navigating the high-stakes world of investment banking. Joe opens up about his childhood, the teachers who left a mark, and what eventually led him to Bitcoin.
We talk candidly about stress, career pivots, and what wealth and happiness really mean. Joe shares how his perspective has evolved—from traditional finance to rethinking pensions, freedom, and the role Bitcoin might play in shaping a better future. It’s a thoughtful, honest conversation with someone who’s lived through big transitions and come out with clarity and conviction.
