The Mycelorium

A glimpse into some recent messages of gratitude sent within The Mycelorium Community. *”Damn [name], this is awesome, pretty much lays things out in a very emotion-free way! Much appreciated!" *“thanks so much for helping out with BW jobs/items you've been such a great partner. just wanted to let you know as I think that's sometimes forgotten" *“[name] has been such a dream, fyi” *”Awesome event. Thanks for all that you do." *”Thank you for opening up these conversations, very interesting to see the early thinking." Getting to see messages like these passed around is always a reminder on why Jen Berry and I started The Mycelorium: to cultivate a space where 1+1 = 3. Happy Thanksgiving Everyone! #gratitude #thanksgiving

At The Mycelorium, we’ve worked with a wide range of founders to help their startups grow and thrive. Whether through our community, resources, recruiting services, business development or fundraising, our mission is to support the whole startup ecosystem. But growth isn’t just about the business—it’s about the founder. That’s where our coaching comes in. Over the years, Ryden and I have seen one truth repeatedly: the very strengths that make founders extraordinary can also hold them back. In my latest article, The Founder's Paradox, I share lessons from years of coaching—how to identify the patterns limiting your growth and what to do about them. This piece is for founders navigating the transition from startup scrappiness to sustainable scale. It’s not just about strategies; it’s about the deeper, personal shifts that unlock the next level for you and your business. If this resonates, we’d love to help. Our team of coaches specializes in supporting founders through these transitions—whether through one-on-one coaching, workshops, or through our cohorts of founders in similar industries and phases. Let’s talk about what’s holding you back—and how to turn it into your next breakthrough.
