Dr. Matthew Jones is a licensed psychologist turned startup co-founder coach and cofounder of Co-Founder Clarity. With six years of experience working with hundreds of entrepreneurs—from YC to Sequoia-backed teams—he specializes in helping founders prevent burnout, resolve conflict, and build stronger, more resilient partnerships. His work has been featured in TIME, Business Insider, and Inc., and his new book The Co-Founder Effect dives into the psychology of what makes or breaks founding teams. In this episode, he unpacks the hidden dynamics that shape co-founder relationships and offers practical tools founders can use to scale both their companies and their partnerships.
