Education
This episode is a pause and a check-in.
I’m sharing reflections from our first full One Day MBA community event, the first time founders from all stages of the program came together in one space. Not just my November cohort, but founders who are brand new, founders deep in the work, and founders just weeks away from graduating.
Led by mentor Brian, the conversation wasn’t about tactics or growth hacks. It was about where we actually are right now, at the end of 2025. The real blockers. The life stuff. The exhaustion, the responsibility, the hope, and the rebuilding that happens alongside building a business.
In breakout rooms, we heard from parents, caregivers, nonprofit leaders, bootstrapped founders, and longtime entrepreneurs, all navigating different chapters of the same journey. Different timelines, same human questions.
This episode is a snapshot of the One Day community as a whole, honest, grounded, and very real. If you’re building something and wondering if you’re the only one feeling tired, behind, or uncertain, you’re not.
This is where a lot of us are right now.
