Entrepreneurship isn’t just about hustle, funding rounds, or scaling fast. It’s also about the inner game—mastering your mindset, aligning your purpose, and creating a business that doesn’t consume your life.

In this episode of Marketing Spark, Zaheer Merali—founder, investor, and executive coach—shares what he’s learned from two decades of advising entrepreneurs and navigating his own personal reinvention. We dig into:

  • Why overthinking and overworking plague founders
  • How to break free from the addiction to hustle culture
  • The power of pausing, pivoting, and uncovering your true passion
  • Why aligning your inner compass is more important than any revenue target

This isn’t about working harder. It’s about working better—on your terms.
