Most entrepreneurs quit before they hit traction. Trent Carter shares the raw truth about building in healthcare, risking it all, and why scaling is less about strategy and more about grit.
📌What’s covered:
- The contrarian reason why having no MBA and no business background may actually give you an edge.
- How Trent went six weeks without a single client—and why most entrepreneurs would’ve quit too early.
- The mindset shift that made him go from provider to CEO (and what every founder gets wrong about delegation).
- The work ethic philosophy that beats startup capital, connections, or credentials.
- Why scaling fast is less about opportunity—and more about learning to walk the line between profit and public good.
Trent Carter is a board-certified addiction specialist and nurse practitioner with a master’s degree from the University of Cincinnati.
