People You Should Know is hosted by Jenny Bain and presented by Octus.
Each episode is a real conversation with someone worth knowing. Some are the people behind the Octus platform. Some are friends of Octus from across credit, finance, and the worlds adjacent. All of them have a story you won’t get from a press release.
Jenny gets them talking about the path that got them here, the moments that shaped them, the work they take seriously, and the parts of life that have nothing to do with work at all.
Listen long enough and you’ll find the kind of people you wish you’d met sooner.
Why do some incredibly talented people never make it, while others with average talent become unstoppable? Dr. Jonathan Fader, Co-Founder and Director of Performance Coaching at SHRPA, joins Jenny Bain on the latest People You Should Know. Fader traces his curiosity back to the 80s, sitting in zip-up pajamas listening to his mother reframe career stories for clients at the kitchen table (02:24). He walks through what he learned working with the Mets, the Giants, and the FDNY about why prospects fizzle and suspects outperform (05:13). He breaks down the “X Factor” trap where a leader’s greatest strength becomes their Achilles heel (16:07), and gets specific on the five-minute-a-day skill that compounds into transformation (44:13). A conversation about adjustment, trust, and the practice of being present.
