Summary

Episode 223: This week Nat’s sitting down with her partners in code, a.k.a., her Rella co-founders, Nick and Connor! Join the squad as they reflect on their journey so far, reminiscing about how they met, the early days of Rella, and how much the company has grown since the beginning. The boys share how avoiding "real jobs" after school led them to teach themselves coding and start a consulting firm, while Natalie shares her first impressions of them. The co-founders also dive into the pivotal moments that pushed Rella to new heights, including the decision to raise money and expand the business, plus they discuss their unique team dynamics and how their diverse skill sets complement one another. From the valuable lessons learned so far to emphasizing the importance of hard work, patience, practicing "directed delusion", and diving in headfirst, tune in to hear from this candid and close-knit team as they offer empowering advice for those looking to embark on their own entrepreneurial path.

Nothing happens in a vacuum.

0:10.0

You always hear about overnight successes or solo successes and you know this is a very generalized statement but I don't think those really exist in the way people think about them.

0:21.0

So just learning that you know success doesn't happen in a

0:24.3

vacuum and it does take time and also just how much we don't know and being able to

0:28.7

accept and acknowledge some of that ignorance and be able to ask for help and be coachable.

0:33.0

You know, I know we know some people

0:35.0

and have heard of other people

0:36.0

and entrepreneurs in the space that

0:38.0

I think we've all obviously done a really good job at not doing that.

And Nick is in town, he lives in North Carolina, so I had to do the podcast, but I'm very excited because we haven't done a podcast together in a very long time. I think it was before Rella ever was launched.

1:31.0

I think the last time I remember me being just recording in my room by

1:34.8

myself because we were all in separate places at that time. Or no I was living with you.

1:38.3

We were in the same house but we were in different rooms. So the last time we recorded, we had a podcast for Rela, which I honestly would love to bring back,
