What to Do Before You Start a Business
Notas do episódio
We're unpacking what it actually looks like to prepare for a business we can't start yet - using the months before we have land, capital, or customers to test the real model instead of just dreaming about it.
Drawing from a listener's question about building an organic-garden and teaching business from the ground up, we talk through why passion alone doesn't guarantee a sustainable business, and how running small, real experiments now beats waiting for someday.
It's a conversation about grounding ambition in reality - building awareness of what the numbers actually say, intention around the specific tests worth running today, and action that turns a someday dream into something we can actually sustain, instead of one more good idea left to drift.
