Darick Spears found his passion for writing when he was young, but his vision clearly formed after a trip to the most magical place on Earth: Disney World.


Seeing the universe of Disney characters and the dozens of media formats used to captivate the audience, Darick dreamt of a creating his own legacy through Darick Books. Darick writes every book that he sells in his store, but they aren’t just available for purchase. His works are distributed through educational facilities and the corrections system, and he envisions them reaching as many people as possible.


Darick expanded into writing for others, creating videos and documentaries, and a few other outlets for creative expression. Now, he’s coming to the YG Workshop team to get some direction and find his true north.

Milwaukee has always been the little brother to a number of Midwestern metros like Chicago and the Twin Cities, and few would argue that the start-up scene in Silicon Valley considers MKE a threat.




Dana Guthrie of Alchemy Angel Investors and Matt Cordio of Start Up Milwaukee have a few things to say about that.





The city and the surrounding areas are booming and the opportunities here are rich for growth and investment. Capital isn’t quite abundant yet, but both seem to think: we’re not far from it, and we’ve earned our place at the table.

For Christine Specht, it wasn’t written in stone that she’d eventually take the helm of the family business – but she’s happy to be there.

It all started when she was young and working as a cashier at Cousins Subs, the company started by her father and his cousin, who missed the sub shops and bread from their New Jersey youth. Christine fell in love with the mission and grew within the company until today, where she is the CEO.

Alongside leading redesigns of shops, franchisors, or expansion plans in the Midwest, Christine even gets to be involved in creating the menu – whose staples, besides sandwiches, include cheese curds and french fries.

It’s not about what you say, it’s about how you say it. And sometimes, it’s about not saying anything at all. Sometimes, you just need to listen.

Roger Wolkoff of All About Authenticity teaches us four traits of successful leaders and runs through a few scenarios that we all bobble in. How are we sounding or coming off when we speak out of turn? How are we shaping the conversation when we take control of it?

We’re all guilty of imperfection and we have the opportunity to grow as business leaders, luminaries, and entrepreneurs when we work towards the characteristics that Roger walks us through.

It takes a lot of hard work to lead a million dollar company – but how about leading a hundred million dollar company? How about a $1.4 billion company? Let’s ask Kevin Steiner.

Kevin Steiner takes pride in being the CEO of West Bend Insurance, a Wisconsin-based mutual insurance company that has been in business for over 125 years. Kevin views the company as relationship-based, and emphasizes connection, family, and providing excellent value-adding service to their clients.

With more than 1000 agents, there’s more than a few minds to manage, but Kevin doesn’t see that as a challenge. Instead, he sees an opportunity to connect, both through meetings on workplace anniversaries and also through servant leadership and community support. Volunteering, for example, is one of the actions Kevin credits for his success in business.

Dive in to the episode to hear more about Kevin Steiner and West Bend Mutual as he and Paul M. Neuberger, the CEO of the Young Guns Movement, go One-on-One on this episode of YGTV.

Richie Burke, like many entrepreneurs, led a pretty active and exciting life in the early days of launching his business, Go Geddit Marketing & Media. But, for Richie, it all came to a screeching halt aboard one stressful flight – one that would change and challenge his responses to situations every day.

From that day forward, Richie wasn’t “the old Richie” anymore. He had a new set of constraints, a new way to approach life, and a new set of coping mechanisms – most of which were not the healthiest.

So how did Richie return to “the old Richie?” How many people have found themselves in his shoes, similar situations, or are enduring these challenges on a day-to-day basis? Tune in to YG Stage with Andy Weins to find out.
