E1: Why I'm Starting This Podcast (And Why Most Founder Content is BS)
Manage episode 499269809 series 3682696
Lost a major partnership at 8pm. Pivoted our entire strategy by morning. This is founder reality - not the highlight reel you see on LinkedIn.
I'm tired of the founder content circus. VCs who've never run companies teaching startup strategy. Consultants giving entrepreneurship advice who've never taken real risk. It's all startup theater.
In this first episode, I share:
- The partnership termination that forced our overnight pivot
- Why most founder advice comes from people who've never founded anything
- How we changed our entire strategy in 24 hours
- The difference between substance and performance in founder content
- My journey from frustrated intern to running two companies (SimpleDirect & ANC)
This isn't motivational fluff or productivity bluff. It's the unfiltered reality of building companies - the decisions, mistakes, and lessons that don't make it into LinkedIn posts.
New episodes every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.
