Startup Breakdown

In this episode of Startup Breakdown, we share a big update: after nearly two years and 87 episodes, we are taking a well-deserved pause for the rest of the year! So as to not disappoint we go out in style with more dog and TV chat. And with Milly's new AI "Chief of Staff" highlighting the true time investment behind producing the show, we dive into evaluating strategic purpose in business, avoiding burnout, and stepping back to plan a stronger comeback in the New Year.
