From Die Hard to Deep Focus Secrets with Steven Puri: Hollywood Exec Turned a Tech Founder

Ever feel like your to-do list is growing — but your focus is shrinking? Or that success is slipping between your fingers and failure might be knocking on the door?

If you’re a founder, business owner, or exec trying to do less noise and more results, this episode will shake up how you think about productivity, leadership — and reinvention.

In this episode of Change Talks, I welcome Steven Puri — a former Hollywood executive turned tech entrepreneur — who walked away from running the Die Hard and Wolverine franchises to build something radically different: an AI-powered focus assistant. A man who knows both the glamour side of the business, but had to swallow some hard lessons and failures too.

This episode is for entrepreneurs, builders, and bold leaders who are tired of surface-level hacks and want:

Real talk on career changes that don’t fit on LinkedIn
How to find motivation and purpose when facing downturns
Insights on how to build products that people actually pay for
A smarter way to run remote teams without micromanaging or burning out

Steven’s story is a proof that reinvention isn’t just possible — it’s necessary. From selling his first company at 28 and dream career in Hollywood, to crashing two startups and learning how humility (and brutal feedback) fuel growth, his journey is full of lessons no MBA will teach you.

Change Talks is your no-bs podcast for real conversations with entrepreneurs, change-makers, and rebels who reshape business and life on their terms. Episodes drop bi-weekly and run 45–60 minutes, featuring honest interviews with real people who share real change stories.
