034: In the Weeds, On the Brand, and Under Pressure: The Real Rhythm of Founder Priorities
Manage episode 519380242 series 3682994
Matt and Anne dive into what it really feels like to run a company while juggling detail-oriented work, shifting identities, marketing experiments, and the constant pressure of “the one task that keeps everything alive.”
Anne breaks down her complete overhaul of November — canceling commitments, resetting availability, rebuilding boundaries, and finally owning how her energy, cycle, and creative demands shape her productivity. Matt shares the three buckets he uses every single morning to survive ChipBot’s dynamic chaos, plus the real emotional cost of ignoring the one thing that truly moves the business forward.
If you’re a founder juggling vision, execution, burnout prevention, and the guilt of needing more flow-state time… this one is going to hit deep.
