In this episode of Creating the Curve, Anna Bravington is joined by long-time mentor, connector, and all-around business whirlwind Beverley Poole, to talk about something every founder needs - support.

Together, they explore:

  • Why technical founders struggle when they try to go it alone

  • How to know what you’re good at and when to outsource the rest

  • The importance of building your “trusty tribe”

  • Why burnout and overwhelm are real threats for early-stage businesses

  • And how founders with ADHD or neurodivergence can work with their strengths, not against them

If you’ve ever felt like you should be doing everything yourself, this episode will remind you that getting support isn’t cheating - it’s smart strategy.

From community networking to finding the right mentor, Beverley and Anna share candid insights into what makes support work, how to set boundaries, and how to build a business around what you are best at, not just what needs doing.
