The Startup Solution tackles the make-or-break situations that entrepreneurs face, offering clear advice on how to survive and thrive in an early-stage company. Who's it for? Founders, startup execs, and investors who want to learn from real-world situations, unpacked by Heidi Roizen, a "recovering" entrepreneur and current VC who has seen it all through 40 years and 40 boards. Heidi uses a case method to unpack a new situation in each episode, breaking down why it's a big deal and talking about how it was solved or could have been solved. The situations are from her direct experience, though all names and details have been changed to uphold our commitment to the Entrepreneur Protection Program. Heidi has spent 40 years in the tech startup world, the first dozen years as an entrepreneur herself, and since then, 25 years as a venture capitalist. She's served on over 40 boards, from seed stage to public companies. She also co-leads the Threshold Venture Fellows program at Stanford University and is a partner at Threshold Ventures.

It’s All About You/It’s Not All About You

Thu Jun 26 2025

Listen

In this episode, Heidi discusses how founders tend to swing between two extremes — thinking it’s not all about them (when actually, it is), or believing it’s only about them and their company (when it really isn’t). She’ll review both sides and point out what founders often get wrong — and how to get it right. More information: https://www.threshold.vc/podcast Further reading: On the occasion of our 40th episode, here are the names and links to the ‘village’ of people responsible for making this podcast a reality! My partners at Threshold: https://threshold.vc/team Carol Wentworth, my creative partner for all 40 episodes: https://www.linkedin.com/in/cawentworth/ Producer/Director Nick van der Kolk: https://loveandradio.org/     Forrest Lawrence/Working Title Recording Studio: https://workingtitlerecordingstudios.com/ Albertson Design for original concept, production, and creative artwork: https://albertsondesign.com/ Music composer Brad Wells: https://www.roomfulofteeth.org/bios/brad-wells And thanks to our own Wendy McArdle, who manages distribution
