In this episode of Open Source Health, Tripp and Marcus unpack a different kind of leadership discipline—the kind that doesn’t show up on your calendar. They explore what it means to lead with intention rather than intensity, and how slowing down can actually be the most strategic move for a founder, parent, and partner.
Tripp reflects on his upcoming month-long trip to Spain as a forcing function to step into a more strategic role, and what it means to run a values-driven company without falling into the hustle trap. From hyper-productivity and masculine-coded “grind culture” to the real emotional labor of leadership, this episode asks: how do we balance growth with flourishing?
Takeaways
Hustle isn't always helpful—clarity often beats effort.
Asking for help is a superpower, but over-advising can derail you.
Leadership means managing your inner state, not just your output.
Leverage isn’t just capital—it’s time, trust, and media too.
If you want to scale a values-driven company, start by living your values.
