On this episode of The Joy of Living Podcast, Barry Shore welcomes Tristan Capes-Davis for an energizing conversation about mindset, business, relationships, and building the future with purpose.

Tristan shares his journey from growing up as a competitive multi-sport athlete on Long Island to attending the Virginia Military Institute, where discipline, resilience, and teamwork became central to how he approaches life and business. He opens up about adapting to unexpected challenges, breaking into investment banking through relentless persistence, and learning that meaningful success is built through action, service, and authentic relationships.

Barry and Tristan explore the deeper meaning of business as both transactional and transformational, unpacking why trust, community, and putting others first are still the foundations of lasting success. Tristan also gives listeners a look into PodGo, his venture to help podcasters grow through better analytics, stronger distribution, and a more creator-focused model for the industry.

At the heart of the episode is a powerful personal theme: Tristan’s reflection on becoming a new father while launching a company and stepping into a new level of responsibility, purpose, and legacy.

Filled with Barry’s signature joy, uplifting wisdom, and memorable insights, this episode is a reminder that when you lead with purpose, stay open to opportunity, and keep building with heart, you really can make a difference.
