About This Podcast

Crushing It: Risk, Resilience, and the Real Story Behind Success In every industry, the line between risk and opportunity is razor-thin — and learning to navigate it is what separates good leaders from great ones. Crushing It is the show for those who live at that intersection: founders, executives, CPAs, technologists, and investors who know that progress and peril often travel together. Hosted by Jonathan Trimble and Rob Cochran, two former FBI agents turned business builders, Crushing It explores what it takes to thrive in complexity — when markets shift, technology evolves, and resilience becomes your greatest asset. From cybersecurity and compliance to leadership, innovation, and strategic growth, each episode unpacks the hidden dynamics that shape modern enterprise. --- What It’s About Crushing It isn’t about avoiding risk — it’s about mastering it. The show takes listeners behind the curtain of high-stakes decisions across industries like finance, energy, technology, and professional services, revealing how today’s most effective leaders transform disruption into momentum. Each conversation combines practical frameworks with real-world stories: How businesses rebound from failure stronger than before. How CFOs and CPAs quantify and communicate emerging risks. How founders turn regulatory or technological headwinds into strategic advantage. How boards and investors rethink resilience in an age of volatility. How mission-driven leadership builds organizations that don’t just survive change — they lead it. --- Format The tone is straight talk, not jargon. The conversations are candid, practical, and forward-looking — designed to help listeners think bigger about resilience, leadership, and intelligent risk. --- About the Hosts Jonathan Trimble and Rob Cochran built Bawn after careers in the FBI, where they led investigations, technology modernization, and crisis response at national scale. Today, they help companies build operational resilience through risk intelligence, governance, and technology. Their FBI backgrounds give them a rare vantage point: they’ve seen how systems fail — and how people rebuild them stronger. That same perspective shapes Crushing It — an unfiltered look at how to make smarter decisions under pressure. --- Why Listen In every episode, you’ll hear insights that connect across disciplines — from cybersecurity to finance, operations to innovation. You’ll discover: How to assess and manage risk before it becomes crisis. How to lead through uncertainty without losing focus or trust. How to align technology, people, and purpose for lasting advantage. How resilience fuels performance — not just recovery. --- The Mindset “Crushing It” isn’t just a name — it’s a mindset. It’s about turning obstacles into catalysts, complexity into clarity, and risk into a competitive edge. Whether you lead a fintech, an energy firm, or a professional practice, this show helps you reframe resilience as strategy — and leadership as the ultimate advantage. --- Tune In Join a community of leaders who aren’t just surviving change — they’re Crushing It. Subscribe wherever you get your podcasts, and learn how to see risk differently, lead with purpose, and seize the opportunities hidden inside every challenge. Because the future doesn’t belong to the fearless. It belongs to the prepared.
