Episode Synopsis

Founders (and leaders) are addicted to solving problems. It’s their crack cocaine. That’s what startup scaling coach Rob Bier, author of Smooth Scaling and coach to 40+ startups including six unicorns, told me. And the more I thought about it, the more it made sense. Fixing things feels good. It proves we’re still valuable. Still sharp. Still in control.But the addiction comes at a cost.It blocks us from building teams that solve problems without us.And it traps us in an old identity—just when we’re ready to grow into something new.We explore this and more in this episode of the podcast. Episode Shownoteshttps://howtolive.life/episode/092-let-go-to-grow-with-rob-bierFor Folks Affected by Restructuring4 Week Career Transition Program. https://www.sharadlal.net/thrivethroughtransition How to Live NewsletterGo deeper with articles every 2-3 weeks.
