Maxed out cards. Burned out CTO. Seven years of pivots, flops, and feeling stuck. So why didn’t we quit?
In this raw and honest episode, the twins open up about what it really felt like to build for 7 years with no traction. From sharing a room and renting their apartment to scraping by on side gigs, to watching peers take off while they questioned everything—they dive deep into the emotional rollercoaster of long-term failure.
You’ll hear:
The full timeline from their first company to Black Labs Studio today
The moments that almost broke them
4 mindset shifts that kept them going
What they’d tell their past selves
Practical advice if you’re in year 1 or 2 and ready to give up
This one’s for the builders who are still in the mud. You’re not alone—and it’s not over.
If this hits home, share it with a fellow struggler. Let’s normalize the long game.
