Listen "Can I Design My Startup Around My Life?"
Episode Synopsis
In today's Startup Therapy Podcast, Wil and Ryan discuss if founders can design their startups around their life. Should your life adjust to your startup or could you design your startup to fit your lifestyle? It's all about making intentional choices and taking small steps to align your business with your desired lifestyle. By carefully planning, testing things out, and being open to adjustments, you can create a startup that fits seamlessly into your personal life instead of consuming it. It's all about finding that sweet spot where work and life complement each other.Sign up for the Startups Newsletterhttps://www.startups.com/newsletterResources:Startup Therapy Podcast https://www.startups.com/beginJoin our Network of Top Founders Check in with us on LinkedIn | Wil Schroter | Ryan RutanWhat to Listen For00:00 Intro01:26 Beyond binary thinking02:08 What was your lifestyle 10 years ago?05:46 Baby steps to improve your life07:09 Starting a work-from-home setup09:30 Remote work and personal health11:22 The challenges and rewards of incremental changes in work and life15:20 Stop seeking certainty17:09 Make this your corporate goal and externalize it22:20 Share your personal goals with your team26:38 Take one step toward your goals30:26 As founders, you can do anything
