In this episode, I chat with a good friend, Luc Tenthorey, who is a founding partner of a Philadelphia-based design engineering company called Oat Foundry.
Luc’s biz story is a really unique one about six friends with a strong bond and powerful level of trust that carried them through years of struggle in their business.
Luc talks about the ‘dark years’, aka the early years, of starting a business. The “why the fuck are we doing this” moments of being an early-stage business owner, doing and taking any job to get by.
We talk about the twists and turns of being a business founder along with the mental and emotional waves that accompany that and all of life.
Plus, we get into the deep stuff about mental and emotional states and the path we go through with rejecting things in ourselves that we didn’t like about our parents.
All of this, plus:
💪 Getting to the point where you can say ‘no' to opportunities, and learning what your niche is by doing everything and all things in the beginning.
💼 Work life presence and co-dependence on your business: the business being the defining factor of how you are doing as a person
📚 Defining success by continuing to learn and do interesting things
✨ Moving beyond the novelty of a new business
🌩️ Experience with moving through depression, negative thought processes and emotional blocks
🎆Mastering the art of working the process, not the outcome
💡 How to get out of a rut and upward spiral to feeling better and better
🌱Live gratitude meditation
🔥 Engaging with a creative pursuit that isn’t tied to financial game to balance your sex and creative energy
For any new business owners, aspiring business owners, or people with mental and emotional disturbance and mindset challenges, this is for you!
