Episode notes
Founder Confidence and External Expertise
- Founders often lose confidence as their companies grow, leading them to seek external expertise.
- This vulnerability can attract "experts" who offer solutions but may not fully grasp the company's core identity.
Maintain Founder Confidence
- Founders should maintain confidence in their vision and decision-making.
- Remember, you are ultimately responsible for your business's growth.

- Be wary of charismatic advisors who offer generic solutions without deep understanding.
- Seek out "walkers," individuals with a proven track record of delivering results, not just talk.
