As you can probably tell from the title of this episode, things are about to get vulnerable here on the podcast today, as I reveal how very recently I almost gave up and completely shut down Thrivers.
In this episode, I want to share the untold story behind my darkest leadership low. From chaotic team expansion and communication breakdowns to the silent sabotage of misaligned visions, it all brought me to the brink of selling my company…
Fast forward to today, and I am at a place where I feel like I am awake again and I want to talk about hard things differently. If you're navigating the messy middle of growth right now, I hope the leadership lessons that I learned will empower you to identify red flags, make tough decisions, and build your thriving enterprise.
