In today’s episode, I answer rapid-fire questions on breakthroughs, scaling, and relationships. I share how my first financial leap came nine months after law school by betting on sales skills early, and how my real life shift hit at 38 with a painful lesson that changed my perspective. We talk about building culture that can survive fast-moving markets, why success often moves slowly then suddenly, and how to stay focused on behaviors instead of daily evidence. I break down partnership “rules,” the relativity of time, and a practical way to let underperformers either rise or remove themselves.
