In this special episode, I’m sharing a powerful message from my friend Assia Mahmood, originally aired on her podcast She Busy. It hit me so deeply that I asked if I could share it with you too.
Assia unpacks a phrase we all need in our back pocket: “I reserve the right to change my mind.” As entrepreneurs, we’re taught to follow through at all costs but what if honoring your original plan is actually getting in the way of your vision? This episode is your permission slip to let go of what’s not working, pivot when needed, and lead with clarity instead of ego. You don’t owe loyalty to the first plan—you owe it to your vision.

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.
