Asian Business Owners - A.B.O.

What Founders Don’t Talk About Enough — Part 2: Support, Expectations and Why Not Everyone Will Understand [FOUNDER REALITY]


Listen Later

Entrepreneurship changes how you see people, what you expect from them and what support really means.


This is Part 2 of my conversation with Rasheed, entrepreneur and host of Entrepreneurs Stories Podcast.


In this episode, we talk about the personal side of building a business and the part that affects your life outside of work.


What we discussed:

  • Why not everyone will understand your journey
  • Why your close circle isn’t your target audience
  • How your priorities and lifestyle naturally evolve
  • Friendships, expectations and letting go
  • Choosing energy over expectations


🎧 If you haven’t listened yet, start with Part 1: Clients, boundaries and the people around you.
