The Layover

In this episode of The Layover, we dive into a tough truth of entrepreneurship and leadership: not everyone is rooting for you. People are often quick to critique when you stumble, but they go silent when you succeed. Why is that? We break down the psychology behind why some people resist celebrating others’ wins—jealousy, comparison, scarcity mindset—and explore how this affects entrepreneurs emotionally and professionally. More importantly, we talk about how to flip the script: protecting your mindset, finding the people who genuinely support you, and learning to celebrate yourself unapologetically. At the end of the day, the absence of applause doesn’t make your success any less real. Your journey is for you, not for the critics. ✅ Check out The Layover YouTube channel here [https://www.youtube.com/channel/UChCq2sg0gd-3C57kGzbIR7Q] !

In this heartfelt and candid last episode of the season, we dive into the reality of fatherhood on the road. Patrick opens up about the emotional highs and lows of being a dad who travels frequently—balancing work commitments, long-distance parenting, and the guilt that often comes with not being physically present. From navigating FaceTime check-ins to managing the emotional toll of missed milestones, this episode sheds light on the often-unspoken challenges of modern fatherhood in a career-driven world. It’s a conversation about vulnerability, presence, and redefining what it means to show up for your kids—even from thousands of miles away. ✅ Check out The Layover YouTube channel here [https://www.youtube.com/channel/UChCq2sg0gd-3C57kGzbIR7Q] !

In this solo episode, Tracy dives into the raw, unfiltered side of entrepreneurship—grit. Inspired by Emma Grede’s bold take on what it really takes to succeed, Tracy opens up about her own journey building TRAX Analytics from the ground up. From being told the idea was stupid, to choosing the wrong partners, to getting rejected by investors hundreds of times, this episode pulls back the curtain on the messy middle that most founders don’t talk about. Tracy shares how grit—not connections, not credentials, not luck—was the one thing that carried her through product failures, lonely moments, and leadership growing pains. If you’ve ever questioned whether you have what it takes, or felt like quitting when things got hard, this episode is your reminder: grit will take you further than talent ever will. ✅ Check out The Layover YouTube channel here [https://www.youtube.com/channel/UChCq2sg0gd-3C57kGzbIR7Q] !
