Episode 113: Honesty Over Hype

Welcome to Episode 113 of The Endless Growth Podcast!

This week, Alex and Edgar explore everything from spiritual superstitions to the power of reputation in business. It kicks off with a playful take on Friday the 13th, tarot readings, and egg-cleansing rituals—and quickly turns into a deeper conversation about belief systems, misinformation online, and why people are so drawn to the unknown.

But the episode doesn’t stop there. The conversation shifts toward the real world—weekend plans, outdoor adventures in Utah, and how job hunting feels like a full-time job. Alex opens up about putting off his job search until after his Europe trip, while Edgar talks about how referrals and insider info can make or break an opportunity in today’s job market.

The two break down what it really takes to succeed in B2B sales, the structure of high-level teams, and why character matters more than ever in a world filled with smoke and mirrors. From shady mechanics to overpriced attorneys, they call out unethical practices—and highlight why honesty, transparency, and follow-through still win.

Whether you’re navigating career moves, building trust in business, or just trying to make sense of what you believe—this episode offers a thoughtful mix of humor, insight, and real talk about the things that shape our paths.

If you value good people doing good work—this one’s for you.
