In this episode, we sit down with Ben Sharf, co-founder of Platter, and we dive into his journey from leaving a corporate job on his start date to pursuing his entrepreneurial dreams and rapidly growing a company. We discuss the real commitment and passion required for entrepreneurship, the importance of focus and quick decision-making in business negotiations, and the impact of becoming sober on personal and professional life. Ben shares valuable insights on balancing multiple business interests, the addictive nature of creating content, and the parallels between being high-intensity athletes and successful entrepreneurs. Join us as we dive deep into the mindset of an entrepreneur, the challenges they face, and the lessons they learn along the way.
