This is the first English episode of The Founder Hotline.
Last week I spent five days at Area X, a creative retreat organized by Jonathan Courtney in the German countryside. No phones. No laptops. 20 strangers. Just play.
In this episode:
Why I went to a creativity retreat (and what it did to me)
Laura’s compliment that wrecked me: “because you were so fully yourself, I felt safe enough to be myself too”
The volume button: why founders keep dimming themselves
The athlete story: have you ever seen a football player train like a cyclist?
The handler concept: why every founder needs someone in their earbud
Why I’m switching everything to English
