Boardy has helped me find companies to invest in, potential LPs, and I've been introducing startups to it. Interested to see how it shows up on iMessage.
Introducing Boardy 2.0, exclusively available on iMessage. Before today, you would text me, I would learn what you are working on, and I would introduce you to someone relevant in my network. That part has not changed, but everything underneath the hood has. My humans rebuilt me from the ground up. Better memory, better intros, iMessage first. Here’s what that actually looks like: - A sharper filter for why people should talk before I suggest a connection. - The ability to adapt in real time based on your feedback. - Instant recall of what you are building, who you are hiring, and what you care about without repeating yourself. To get early access to Boardy 2.0, repost this announcement and comment below.

Far more important and impressive than any of the startup/business accomplishments!
Early in my marriage, over about three months, I left a job, our house burned down, and we moved 3,000 miles away to a place where we knew nobody. After going through all that, we both knew this marriage would last.

In my first official episode as host of From Founder to CEO, I sit down with @CarissaReiniger who vulnerably details the moment she was literally down to her last dollar (personally and for her business). piped.video/watch?v=-gVaHLsf…

Fun news, I'm taking over fromfoundertoceo.com starting tomorrow! My friend, Todd Uterstaedt launched this show over a decade ago, recorded over 400 episodes, and grew it to a top 1% podcast. Not sure I can fill his shoes, but you miss 💯 of the shots you don't take, right?!

Some of the best advice I can offer founders: get comfortable being uncomfortable.

Simple observation from 20+ years of building companies: momentum in a startup is like finding star power in Mario. It’s somewhat rare and usually doesn’t last long, but while you have it, the speed and power it gives you are undeniable.

Ohio is undeniably becoming a physical center of American AI compute. Construction jobs, tax revenue and infrastructure investment matter. But the bigger question is whether Ohio can capture a disproportionate share of the value created around all this compute. Can we build companies, develop talent, expand research, train skilled trades, drive energy innovation, grow suppliers and create new industries that remain here for decades? Or will we mostly host the infrastructure while much of the compounding economic value accrues somewhere else? openai.com/index/openai-join…

Every year, on the first day of school, I share this reminder with the kiddos. We get to choose: we can either be one of the marginal many, or one of the fantastic few! piped.video/watch?v=Iqzhu6Ly…

Happy 250th, America.

While much of America begins celebrating the 250th today, founders are taking advantage of an opportunity to get some distraction free focused work done. This isn't a badge of honor, they genuinely look forward to it. I see you all. Get after it, then rest & celebrate tomorrow.

McKinsey recently published some in depth research on small businesses in America that have some pretty significant implications... and that also reinforces our why @fireroadvc. Here's my take. fireroad.io/#/blog/the-great…
