If your gut is telling you it might be time for a change - but you don't feel ready, or don't even know what to change yet - this episode is for you.
Mallory Contois is a startup growth leader (Lovable, Maven, Mercury, Pinterest and more), founder of the Old Girls Club, and the writer behind Good Work - a Substack with tens of thousands of subscribers.
She's here to talk about following forward momentum over plans, running tiny experiments to find what you're actually built for, why everything is sales, and the wildly calculated decision she made to blow up her entire life in 2019.
