What big decision are you avoiding today that would make everything else easier?Sundae co-founder and CEO Josh Stech sits down with host Jonathan Mitchell to unpack the mantras and moments that shaped his path from Stanford grad to Vegas flipper to co-founder of LendingHome and now the operator behind Sunday. He shares why “tough decisions easy life” guides how he hires, pivots, and right sizes, plus how timing and integrity beat brute force growth.Josh gets specific about the interest-rate whiplash, how he scaled to 29 cities then decisively pulled back, and why storytelling not spreadsheets closes investors. He spotlights mentorship from leaders like Meg Whitman, the emotional core of fundraising, and Sunday’s value to sellers agents and investors in California while keeping a “war chest” ready for the next national push.If you’re an agent investor or homeowner with a property that needs love reach out to Sunday and explore today’s smartest path to sell buy or partner.
