Description

"You need to slow down", founders often hear. But what does it mean, to slow down, when you are building a company from scratch? And how does this slowing down look like depending on where you as a leader and your company as a business are? I discuss that with my guest Gardar Stefansson, CEO of Good Good. This Icelandic startup is the fastest-growing jam brand in the US and Gardar's third venture.

In this episode, you will learn about:

• the journey of a (recovering) workaholic
• the value, pros and cons of checking out as an entrepreneur
• a startup hamster wheel, getting out of it, examining and fixing it
• why herding sheep is a vital tool for Gardar's entrepreneurial and leadership success
• what most founders get wrong in the "take a pause" advice

Stay safe and #standwithukraine,

Anna
