In this action-packed episode, Joey Pinz sits down with cybersecurity executive and youth baseball coach Aaron Peterik, recorded live at Pax8 Beyond 2025. From the dugout to the datacenter, Aaron shares what coaching six-year-olds taught him about communication, patience — and how those same lessons apply to securing networks and running channel programs.

The conversation kicks off with rule changes in Major League Baseball ⚾ and transitions to the state of youth sports today, emphasizing how multi-sport participation builds better athletes — and people. Aaron also shares sharp takes on parenting in youth leagues and how modern coaching is often hijacked by commercialization.

But it doesn’t stop there — we dive deep into Aaron’s work at Zero Networks, a startup redefining MSP security with agentless micro-segmentation and MFA at the port level 🔐. He explains why VLANs and VPNs are no longer enough and offers a glimpse into Connect, their new remote access platform that blends security with speed.

 

🎯 Top 3 Highlights:

  1. 🧢 The biggest myths in youth sports coaching
  2. 🔐 Why VLANs fail & how Zero Networks changes the MSP game
  3. 🏆 Aaron’s personal transformation through focus, goals & hustle
