In this launch episode of our Business Agility series, host Nu Epps introduces her desire to chronicle the real, raw, and strategic side of business pivots—what sparks them, what sustains them, and what it really looks like to evolve when you finally realize that what used to work no longer serves or satisfies you.
This episode goes beyond surface-level advice and digs into the mindset behind the subject matter. It's an honest reflection on making directional shifts in business, refining offers in real time, and leading with both strategy and intuition during seasons of uncertainty or rapid change. Stay tuned in as we interview entrepreneurs in this series who pivot with purpose.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
