Manage episode 433905079 series 2690257
In this episode of the Startup Therapy Podcast, Ryan Rutan and Will Schroter discuss the often overlooked costs of ambition in the startup world. They explore how ambition, while necessary for building innovative companies, can become a debilitating force, leading to severe health issues, strained relationships, and emotional burnout. Using personal anecdotes and analogies, they emphasize the importance of recognizing the tipping point where ambition becomes more detrimental than beneficial, and advocate for a balanced approach to sustain long-term personal and professional health.
