Some founders chase growth. Others chase cures.

On this episode of What Keeps You Awake .tv, David Hooser talks with Jeff Glazier, co-founder and CEO of General Oncology, about building a biotech company where the stakes are measured in human lives.

What started as a family fight against stage 4 pancreatic cancer became a decade-long mission through clinical trials, scientific risk, and relentless problem-solving, now nearing the end of a Phase 1 trial at Memorial Sloan Kettering.



This is a conversation about leadership under pressure, persistence through uncertainty, and why progress matters more than comfort when lives are on the line.

What problem would be worth losing sleep over if it meant helping others?

You can work harder and still fall behind.
Or you can build smarter and stay in control.

In this episode of WhatKeepsYouAwake.TV, David Hooser sits down with Steve Feld to talk about the real reasons businesses stall and what owner-operators must do differently to grow, scale, and eventually exit.

This is a grounded conversation about systems, sales, mindset, and using AI as leverage instead of noise.

If you’re building something meant to last, this episode will challenge how you think.

What’s one lesson 2025 taught you that more people need to hear?

Most small businesses don’t fail because of a bad idea.
They fail because there was never a real plan.

On WhatKeepsYouAwake.TV, David Hooser talks with Steve Feld, a seven-time entrepreneur, about what actually keeps owners awake at night and what separates real businesses from income streams.

This episode covers:
• Why planning backward changes everything
• How failure builds better systems and decisions
• Where AI and automation actually help (and where they don’t)

If you’re serious about growth and exit, this conversation is worth your time.
