I'm back for another business focused podcast. The first one focused on launching a business, this episode is all about what comes next: growing, scaling, and sustaining a company once you’re past the startup phase. I break down why scaling is often harder than launching and what it really looks like to keep pushing a business forward without burning out. We talk about burnout, doubt, and the mental weight of ownership, when to pay yourself as a founder, the pros and cons of taking on investors, how to launch new categories the right way, marketing wins, mistakes, and brand-building moments, lawsuits, pivots, and knowing when it’s time to walk away.
