Small Business Growth Podcast

LISTEN TO THIS EPISODE IF YOU ARE A FOUNDER BUT ARE UNSURE IF YOU’RE ACTING LIKE IT In this episode of The Business Growth Podcast, we’re having one of the most important conversations in business: the difference between owning a business and thinking like a founder. Today we’re unpacking what I call Entrepreneurial IQ. The mindset, decision-making, prioritization, and leadership skillset that separates operators from founders. This episode is about shifting from reactive to proactive, from busy to intentional, and from running tasks to building a real business. In this episode: • The difference between being an operator vs. acting like a founder • Why 90% of businesses fail and what the 10% do differently • What Entrepreneurial IQ actually is (and why it matters more than ever) • The difference between the player and the playbook in business • How founders prioritize growth over busyness • The biggest mindset traps keeping business owners stuck • Where your energy actually needs to go as a founder • How to stop reacting and start leading • The identity shifts required to scale sustainably • Action steps to start thinking and operating like a true founder JOIN THE FOUNDER CAFE FREE COMMUNITY // CLICK HERE FREE TRAININGS // CLICK HERE TO BROWSE EXPLORE PROGRAM & SERVICES // CLICK HERE APPLY TO WORK WITH ME // CLICK HERE FOLLOW MADI ON INSTAGRAM // @thisismadisonpaige
