What is a dreamer? When is something done? The One Second Podcast

Nathan and Mondo explore what it feels like to be the person who sees a future no one else can yet imagine. Mondo shares the weight and responsibility of carrying a vision that feels bigger than himself, while Nathan reflects on the role of translating dreams into reality, building systems, and knowing when to finish, refine, or let go. Along the way, they unpack trust, spiritual growth, and why the strongest partnerships aren't built on thinking alike, but on honoring each other's unique way of seeing the world. This is One Second, a conversation between two people with wildly different identities where we’re exploring how we’re different while embracing that we’re better, together. Hey, this is Nathan Young, founder and Author of How to be Second. If you want more like this, subscribe or find more on Howtobesecond.com In our vernacular at H2B2, I am a Second (plans, systems, management, gets it done, type people) My co-host Aramondo Davison is what we call a "Natural 1iC" (one of those 'in the clouds, ideas, visionary, entrepreneur type people) What's a Second? “Seconds” (people with this identity) are people who tend to have ALL of a long list of natural tendencies, all bundled into one person, like: team focused, inspired by the needs of others, collaborative, high willingness to serve, seeks alignment, sees in implications, and understands systems. Common roles they find themselves in might be: The right hand, the glue, the everythinger, the tig-tig saya, admin, Second in Command, COO, Chief of Staff, Manager, Integrator, President. What's a 1iC? People with this identity seem to have grandiose ideas on the daily, dreamer, visionary, tip of the spear, ceo, etc A couple ways you can go deeper if you are interested: If you resonated with the way that Nathan talked about himself and how he sees the world, you might be what we call a Second, which is an identity, not a role.
