About I wish I knew that earlier - stories of personal growth, mindset & entrepreneurship
Inside the Founder is a podcast for entrepreneurs doing the real work behind the scene; overcoming self-doubt, burnout, and the internal blocks that hold them back.
Each episode breaks down honest stories, mindset shifts, and hard-earned lessons from people building businesses and figuring life out as they go, so you can move forward with more clarity, confidence, and perspective.
Because the truth is: building a business isn’t just strategy…it’s an inside job.
Why slowing down is the fastest way forward - we're talking business, with Gina Keeping
You're building something, but it's building you into the ground, and nobody's telling you that doing it slower might be the fastest path forward.
Gina Keeping, founder of The Business Circle and host of her own podcast, has spent years teaching mindset and personal development through the lens of nervous system wisdom. She's not here to sell you another scaling framework, she's here to teach you what sustainable actually looks like.
We explore:
Why your nervous system is the blueprint for your business (and why you've probably been ignoring it)
How being "authentically yourself" can still be a performance, and what actual authenticity requires
The question that changes everything: do you need stability to build, or does needing stability mean you're not serious enough?
The two-minute rule and why it works when willpower fails
Why slowing down isn't giving up, it's the thing that makes success sustainable
If you're caught between wanting to build something meaningful and wanting a life that has space in it for joy, this conversation is for you.

Why Your Business Operations Matter More Than Your Marketing (And What to Do About It) with Diane Mayor
Most people think marketing is the exciting part of a business. Diane will tell you why operations is actually the sexiest thing in the room.
Diane Mayor spent years in investment banking before burning out completely, and now works as a fractional COO and business consultant helping founders build the systems that hold everything else together. Her take is simple. Marketing gets people through the door, but operations is what decides whether they ever come back.
What you'll get from this one
How a cocktail napkin in a bar turned into a career as a fractional COO
Why operations is the glue holding every other part of your business together
What an eleven dollar product taught Diane about what happens after someone hits buy
Why handing AI a system you don't understand might be riskier than it feels
The system you're already running every day without realising it
The honest truth about what's really happening behind the businesses you admire online
If you're...
a founder who's poured everything into your marketing and never quite looked at what happens once someone actually buys from you, this one's for you.
