Welcome to the very first episode of Business Design Podcast! Join hosts Lisi and Andrew as they embark on a candid exploration of what it truly takes to launch a business. This episode is not just about the logistical hurdles of entrepreneurship; it's a deep dive into the personal transformations that accompany the journey from idea to reality.

✨ Key Takeaways✨

1. A Shift in Mindset: Discover the crucial mindset shift required to move from a 9-to-5 mentality to the unpredictable world of entrepreneurship. 

2. A Journey into the Unknown: Navigate the uncharted waters of business ownership with us. Learn about the importance of understanding the "physics" of your business environment and how embracing the unknown is a key component of entrepreneurial success.

3. Learning and Doing: Andrew emphasizes the delicate balance between acquiring knowledge and taking action. 

4. Embrace the Iterative Nature of Entrepreneurship: Hear about the importance of iteration in business, and learn why flexibility and readiness can sometimes be your best assets.

5. Weathering the Storms of Entrepreneurship: Patience is more than a virtue in entrepreneurship—it's a necessity. The goal isn't to weather the storm but to learn to dance in the rain.

6. Starting Small: Understand the pragmatism in starting small, building your "boat" piece by piece, and why a gradual approach to growth can be more beneficial than aiming to build a "juggernaut" from the outset.
