Running a business isn’t all vision boards and victory laps — it’s about navigating layoffs, investor panic, self-doubt, and brutal decisions no MBA class prepares you for.
In this episode of Lit in a Nutshell, we break down Ben Horowitz’s brutally honest book, The Hard Thing About Hard Things. Drawing from his rollercoaster journey as a tech CEO and now a legendary VC, Horowitz shares the gritty truths of leadership — the kind that come after the business books run out of answers.
🎧 Tune in to learn:
Why great CEOs are made, not born
How to make decisions when there are no good options
Why culture isn’t about perks — it’s about behavior
And how to keep going when everything is falling apart
Whether you’re building something from scratch or leading through chaos, this episode will leave you sharper, braver, and less alone.
