But first, you might find some of these resources helpful:

PS: Something a lil different this week:

I'm building something new for founders, which, yes, means I'm doing the thing every founder says they'll do and then definitely skips: actually talking to people first. :)

I'm having conversations with founders and operators who are dealing this specific tension:

• Built something real, but the next move isn't obvious
• High performing externally, running on fumes internally
• Surrounded by people, operating completely alone at the top

If that resonates and you want to share what's actually on your mind, no pitch, no agenda, just a quick casual chat via message, I'd love to hear it.
