    Ep. #39: Alex Bean - Founder of Divvy ($2.5 billion exit) & Juggling Success with Family

    "Things are never as good as they seem, and they're never as bad as they seem." I’ve respected what Alex Bean has built from the outside looking in for a long time—not just because he co-founded a massive company like Divi, but because of how he’s kept his family at a high regard through it all. In this episode, Alex and I sit down to talk about the "burn the boats" moments that defined his career. We dive into the raw reality of quitting a stable job during the 2008 recession and eventually taking an 80% pay cut to start Divi with three kids at home. Alex opens up about the soul-crushing stress of the COVID-19 era when $100 million in funding vanished overnight, and how a simple "We love you, Dad" banner from his kids saved him when he felt like he was breaking down. We also get into the "world's tiniest violin" problems—the unexpected challenges of finding purpose and maintaining a marriage after a multi-billion dollar exit. In this episode, we discuss: Spousal Alignment: Why taking massive risks is impossible if you and your spouse aren't on the same page.The Happiness Audit: The spreadsheet Alex built on a flight to New York to find out if money actually buys happiness (and what the results showed).The Bank of Mom and Dad: How Alex is raising his kids in Utah to have "skin in the game" and earn their own way, despite his success.Earning Your Sleep: Why the "rat race" provides a unique fulfillment that golf and hobbies just can't replace.Seattle Legends: A quick detour into our shared love for the Mariners, the Sonics' return, and why Ken Griffey Jr. is the GOAT. Whether you’re a "young hustler" trying to balance the grind with fatherhood or you're wondering what actually happens after the "big win," Alex’s perspective on life and legacy is a masterclass in staying grounded.
