What does it take to grow a business from 0 to $20M while navigating the highs and lows of leadership?

In this episode of Leaders Lead, I sit down with Rasmus Holst, CEO of Sensei, to uncover the secrets behind scaling a learning platform to global success. Rasmus shares how his team leveraged Microsoft’s ecosystem for explosive growth, the critical role of distribution, and why having the right mindset is key to overcoming challenges.

We also dive into the personal side of leadership: how Rasmus managed burnout, balanced family life, and found clarity in unexpected places—like on top of a mountain in the middle of a business acquisition. If you’re an entrepreneur or leader ready to scale your impact, this episode is packed with insights you don’t want to miss.

You’ll Learn:

• The strategy Sensei used to scale from 0 to $20M as a bootstrap business.
• Why distribution, not just product, is the secret to sustainable growth.
• How to lead with optimism through the ups and downs of business.
• The importance of balancing professional success with personal well-being.
