Introducing the Non-Founder Crew Podcast

Navigating the world of tech startups can be confusing and chaotic. Here’s how you can get ahead to not only survive, but thrive.

Working in a high-growth tech startup is not for the faint of heart. Even when you’re not at the top of the org chart, your contributions are everything.

I’ve spent over a decade in that world, getting swept up in rapid changes, confusing equity options, the pressure of hyper growth, and many moments when I wondered if anyone else really knew what was going on.

I founded Non-Founder Crew (see what I did there?) to help people work their way through startup life without drowning in the uncertainty of it all. And now, I’m launching the podcast of the same name to bring stories from the startup world straight to you.

What people can expect in the podcast

Non-Founder Crew is a space for experts and non-founder employees like me to take you behind the scenes of this ever-changing world, from surviving the madness to understanding the subtle power dynamics that you can’t find in your onboarding docs. We’ll tackle topics like navigating difficult personalities, decoding equity packages, and the mysterious world of company valuations.

Together, we’ll unpack the sticky situations, share tactical advice, and help you level up your career.

Why you should listen

I know what you’re thinking. “Does the world really need another tech podcast?”

Fair question. But there aren’t many podcasts out there that are dedicated entirely to helping non-founders navigate the tech startup space. So if you’re reading this blog, then this podcast is for you.

Here’s what you’ll get:

  1. Real-world advice: As a non-founder employee who has climbed the org chart in the startup world, I’m here to share what really works and what doesn’t.

  2. Expert insights: You’ll hear from people who have worked through the same challenges you’re facing. We’re all in this together.

  3. Practical tips: Whether you're trying to evaluate a startup, building your personal brand, or just trying to survive another chaotic all-hands meeting, I’ve got you covered.

You’ll leave each episode feeling more empowered, equipped with actionable advice, and hopefully with a little smile on your face (because hey, sometimes we all need to laugh at how ridiculous startup life can be).

Check out the trailer, hit subscribe, and let’s make sure that the next time your company throws you a curveball, you're the one who actually gets it.
