Summary

A few weeks ago, Dan and Ian hosted their annual Dynamite Circle event in Austin, Texas.

They met many listeners of this show who traveled from all around the world to attend that event.

Those entrepreneurs shared some incredible stories, insights, advice, and feedback with us, and we can't wait to talk about them.

On today's podcast, we're discussing some of our biggest takeaways from DC Austin 2019, including one of the most common recurring themes that we've heard from entrepreneurs there that we like to refer to as "The Six-Figure Slump".

Stick around after the credits to hear some bonus reflections from our friend Shayna Oliveira, who spoke about the event on her own podcast, Entrepreneurs in Motion.
