    Taking a Company Public at 26 | Brandon Moak

    In Episode 03, we sit down with Brandon Moak, founder of Embark Trucks. He dropped out of Waterloo at 19 to build self-driving trucks. By 24, he'd taken the company public at a $5 billion valuation. He shares what it was like getting into YC with a self-driving golf cart and raising $30M from Sequoia, then the shift when the markets collapsed and he was burning $25M a quarter with no clear way forward. This is not a story about the wins. It's about being young and responsible for hundreds of people and not knowing if you'll make it. If you're building something uncertain, this one's for you.

    From The Brink of Bankruptcy to $1M/Month | Haley Pavone

    In Episode 02, we sit down with Haley Pavone, founder of Pashion Footwear, to talk about the parts of the journey most people never see. Before million-dollar months and a cult-like following, Haley was navigating investor rejection, supply-chain chaos, trade wars, and moments where the company was on the brink. She shares the decisions made under extreme pressure, having to project confidence when you don’t feel it, and what ultimately kept the company alive. This isn’t a growth-hack episode. It’s a conversation about resilience, survival, and what it really means to keep going when the path forward isn’t clear. If you’re building something hard, this one’s for you.

    I Taught Myself To Code in a Dunkin’ Donuts | Ishmael Samuel

    Ishmael’s early life demanded maturity long before most people his age. He arrived in the U.S. with nothing, taught himself to code, and eventually became the co-founder and CTO of Paragon, with $22M raised. This conversation isn’t about overcoming adversity or achieving milestones. It’s about how those experiences shape who you become.
