Founder Culture with Romaine Wright

Still feel weird owning the title of CEO even though you built the business? You’re not alone.

In this follow-up to our Season 1 episode “I Don’t Feel Like a CEO”, I’m joined by Vince Quinn, co-founder and CEO of SBX Productions to unpack the identity gap many founders quietly experience.

Together, we explore why so many entrepreneurs struggle to feel like the leader their business requires and how imposter syndrome often shows up not as fear, but as hesitation to fully own your role.

If you’ve ever downplayed your leadership, avoided visibility, or felt disconnected from the CEO title, this conversation will help you see yourself—and your role—more clearly.

Season 2 starts here.

You built this business because you lived the problem yourself. You know what it feels like to be the overlooked customer, the frustrated client, the person who didn’t get the help you needed. That memory fuels your passion—but it can also set a trap.
