Are you building bridges or burning them?
In this episode of Both Sides of the Check, we're getting real about the unspoken tension in entrepreneurship: should we collaborate or compete? Ms Cat and LiShon break down the mindset shifts necessary to grow in community without compromising your value, and the strategic moves that separate real partnerships from performative ones.
You’ll hear:
- How to identify when collaboration is a smart move (and when it’s a trap)
- Why competition isn’t always the villain — and how to use it to level up
- The sneaky ways scarcity shows up in your business decisions
- And of course, the money mindset behind both strategies
If you've ever side-eyed a potential partner or felt torn between “we could build together” and “I need to protect my lane,” this episode is for you.
💡 Tap in, take notes, and let’s stop playing small when we could be scaling together.
