Cold Coffee Challenge - Reflection Lab One-Off

Reflection Lab Studio presents: Cold Coffee Challenge with special guest Nolan Isear.

This week, Seba & Nolan broke down the Cold Coffee Challenge, what actually happened when two college students decided to cold outreach professionals in their fields and ask for their time.

We got into what the challenge taught us:

  • an 80% response rate nobody expected

  • Why the fear of rejection is almost always worse than the rejection itself

  • and why most experienced people actually want to help

We also got into:

– what Troy said about baby boomer businesses with no one to pass them down to, and why that’s one of the biggest overlooked opportunities for our generation.

– why the advice doesn’t matter as much as the values underneath it – and what it means to build your own path instead of copying someone else’s.

One thing we’d both do differently: be more intentional about who you reach out to.

Volume is good. Precision is better.
