In this episode, Leonard Grape joins us to share his journey of transitioning from a corporate career to entrepreneurship and the challenges he faced along the way. He emphasizes the importance of networking and building a power circle for mutually beneficial value exchange. Leonard also highlights the mindset shift required to sustain a business and the need to stay in the game even during tough times. He encourages aspiring founders to trust their gut and take action, while also being prepared and scrappy. Leonard's definition of networking includes both selling and offering value, with the ultimate goal of helping others. Networking is about generosity and the exchange of giving and receiving. It's not about an eye for an eye, but rather a continuous cycle of support.
