JOSH KUSHNER, THRIVE, AND THE NEW WORLD

Josh Kushner's Thrive Capital has grown into a major VC firm, with investments including a $2 billion stake in Stripe and $150 million in OpenAI leading to substantial returns. Despite Thrive's success, Kushner sought guidance from Rick Rubin on maintaining his intuitive decision-making, reflecting concerns about losing this edge as decisions often rely on non-explainable intuition. Thrive's strategic investments, such as in OpenAI during its leadership crisis, demonstrate its ability to capitalize on opportunities, even under challenging circumstances.

MAP USER JOURNEYS TO SEARCH QUERIES AND PROMPTS

Most SEO still looks like shooting arrows in the dark: picking keywords and hoping they hit a target. Search today is closer to a conversation than a list of results. People ask questions the way they think, and AI tools answer them that way too. Treating search like a guessing game misses how users actually move. Map it instead. Know when someone's just exploring, when they're comparing, and when they're ready to buy.

CONGRATULATIONS, PUBLICLY

You can't just be happy for someone anymore. Even small moments of support now demand an audience. A text of genuine congratulations doesn't feel complete until it's echoed online, where friendship doubles as performance. We call it community, but it's really choreography. Each like, quote, and comment is part of an endless loop of reciprocal praise. For founders, it's the same trap in different clothes. The pressure to show momentum, post wins, and stay visible can quietly replace the work itself.
