About this talk

Do you parent, partner or panic over your business?

For years you've been the business. So who are you when it's gone? A candid session on what happens when your identity merges with what you're building. Personifying your business as a real relationship, not just a functional role, Charlotte interviews Rachel on the psychological patterns founders project onto what they build, and why self-awareness is what lets you survive the exit intact.
