01

The idea

Every business podcast was about raising money and getting big. I wanted to hear from the people who chose not to.

02

The format

Forty minutes, one guest, three questions I ask everyone: how you make money, what you said no to, and what a normal Tuesday looks like.

03

What I learned

Small is not a stage. For a lot of people it is the whole plan, and they are the happiest founders I know.
