Tom Hardin, also known as Tipper X, author of Wired on Wall Street, global keynote speaker, corporate trainer, and board advisor on behavioral ethics, compliance, and culture risk, joins me on this episode.
Tom is a former hedge fund analyst whose life took a dramatic turn when he crossed lines he never thought he would. That path ultimately led him to secretly wear a wire for the FBI in what became the largest insider trading sting of a generation.
🎙️ What We Discuss:
✅ How good people make bad decisions
✅ The psychological toll of becoming an FBI informant
✅ Rebuilding trust after failure
✅ And much more!
