Description

In this episode of the CTOx Podcast, host Marissa sits down with Lior to unpack what it really means to leave corporate tech and step into the life of a Fractional CTO. Far from abstract theory, this conversation dives into daily rhythms, mindset shifts, and the systems that create both freedom and sustainability. From structuring client relationships with intention to balancing delivery with pipeline building, Lior shares a transparent look at what it takes to thrive in this entrepreneurial career path. Listeners will come away with clarity on how to design a fulfilling workweek, avoid burnout, and build a practice that supports not just business growth but also personal wellbeing.


 


You’ll learn:




  • How to reframe your identity from “corporate leader” to entrepreneur in control of your day




  • Why the right client mix creates stability, scalability, and resilience in your practice




  • Practical routines for structuring your week to balance work, health, and family time




  • A delegation framework that helps CTOs avoid burnout and focus on outcomes over firefighting




  • Why consistent pipeline building is essential—even when you’re fully booked






If you’re a Fractional CTO—or any kind of visionary leader—this conversation is a must-listen.
