Episode details
In one of our favorite episodes to date we had the pleasure of bringing on Erik Severinghaus a multiple time founder and current VP of strategy and development at Conexiom. Erik also has successfully scaled and climbed Mount Everest and talks about how that was easier then climbing Everest itself!
Erik shares the stories of entrepreneurship that no one talks about. He is very transparent on the challenges of being a founder and how hard it is mentality and physically to be successfully. It is why in many cases, founders deal with depression and talks about how to create a better support system.
He shares the things he has learned that has lead him to launch his book, Be your own Everest: How to be a Resilient Entrepreneur, where he talks about these challenges and the best way to cope and keep driving your business forward. A super refreshing conversation that no one is talking about that I am sure people will enjoy.
In Today's Episode you will learn:
- What are the biggest challenges of entrepreneurship
- Why climbing Everest was easier then building a company
- The dark side of being a founder and how it leads to anxiety and depression
- How to create a more "real" founder ecosystem
- His stories of climbing Mount Everest
