    Taking Inspiration From Anthony Bourdain & Climbing The Ladder of Ideas | Founder Insights #4

    Welcome to another episode of our founder insights, where we pass along what we get from the unseen, helping you navigate your founder's journey as you help build the next era. This week, I take inspiration from Tony (2026) and Anthony Bourdain's origin story to gain insights into how to navigate the founders' journey. We take a look at the idea of the catalyst, the reasons why we become founders, as well as the idea of climbing the ladder of ideas. Inspired by Plato's Ladder of Love, it's a way to help us see how sometimes the first dream or idea often needs us to go on another journey, for us to become the person who can bring the original dream or idea to life. Also, happy Ada Lovelace Day! Don't forget that the tech industry and the first computer programme were built by a woman who could see into the unseen and believed in magic.

    Tidy Up The Loose Threads & Stay Focused | Founder Insights #3

    Welcome to another episode of our founder insights, where we pass along what we get from the unseen, helping you navigate your founder's journey as you help build the next era. This week, there's a call to adopt a gratitude practice, and a need to tidy up the loose threads of your life. It's time to clear out the closet of your life, and don't be tempted by things just because you're bored. It's time to stay focused, stay boring, and allow yourself to be inspired by a movie this spooky season.

    If you want different, you have to do it differently | The Butterfly Effect & Making Decisions

    Would've, Could've, Should've. Almost every founder has a moment where they look back and think, "What if I pursued the idea back then? What would life look like now?" Use the next time you notice a moment of déjà vu to make a decision that opens the door to what you want to build. And remember, being as delicate as a butterfly can make all the impact in the world.
