What really happens behind the scenes of startup life?
In this episode of Projecting Grandeur, we peel back the layers on the founder’s journey—the late nights, the pitch decks, the pivots, and the personal growth that no one talks about. This is not a glamorized highlight reel. It’s an honest look at the emotional rollercoaster of building something from scratch.
We explore the tension between vision and execution, the loneliness of leadership, and why startup success often comes down to one thing: how well you hold yourself together when everything else is falling apart.
Whether you're raising your first round, stuck in the middle grind, or just dreaming of your own venture, this episode is your reminder—you’re not crazy, you're just early.
