From Punk Rock to Published: Brad Bussie on Cybersecurity, Writing, and Stoic Courage
In this first guest episode of Drink Coffee. Do Cool Stuff., I sit down with Brad Bussie – cybersecurity executive, technology leader, sci-fi fantasy author, and lifelong punk rock fan. We talk about how publishing his first novel decades after being told it was impossible shaped his courage and confidence, how Dungeons & Dragons prepared him for executive leadership, and why stoicism keeps him grounded in a noisy world.
If you’ve ever doubted whether you could finish what you start, this conversation will remind you: courage isn’t something you have, it’s something you choose.
