Entrepreneurship
Michael Peres welcomes Eran Mizrahi to the podcast—South Africa–born entrepreneur, MBA, and co-founder of Source 86, a global sourcing and private label company built on transparency and better partnerships. After working with high-growth startups like Plated (acquired by Albertsons for $300M) and nuts.com, Eran has carved a career path defined by curiosity, intensity, and a refusal to follow a straight line. In this episode, we go deep on the real, lived experience of navigating ADHD—how it shaped Eran’s leadership, creativity, and resilience, and why open conversations about neurodiversity matter more than ever.

Mental Health
Catching up with another powerful episode as Michael Peres sits down with Mary Beth O’Connor – former federal judge, author of From Junkie to Judge: One Woman’s Triumph Over Trauma and Addiction, and a woman who went from shooting meth at 17 to over three decades of continuous sobriety. From surviving severe childhood abuse to rebuilding her life in recovery, earning a Berkeley Law degree, and eventually serving on the federal bench, Mary Beth opens up about what “rock bottom” really looked like and why we shouldn’t wait for it to seek help. She breaks down dual diagnosis, multiple pathways to recovery, and why tough love and TV-style interventions often miss the mark for both families and people struggling with addiction.

Gordon opens up about the unlikely origins of his cocaine dependence at 48, the thousand-day spiral that followed, and the recovery journey chronicled in his memoir Cracking Up. A candid conversation about stigma, leadership, and why “it can happen to anyone.”
