The Founder Threshold Challenge

Most entrepreneurs don’t get stuck because they’re doing something wrong.

They get stuck because the business crosses a threshold they’ve never navigated before. What worked early on—hustle, intuition, being the best producer—starts to create friction as the company grows.

Recognize this?

  • Business still depends too much on you
  • Making bigger decisions with fewer people to talk to
  • Growth feels harder to predict
  • Events feel shallow or transactional
