TRIGGER WARNING: Difficult subject matters within this episode including death and mental health
Host Chris Melville introduces a new monthly accountability check-in with returning guest Richard Harrison, founder of Caldera Capital. They discuss why entrepreneurs must train their brains to notice wins and progress, and share July highlights: Richard’s second talk (on ADHD), new connections, a house sale to fund his business, increased gym time, and being asked to mentor.
Chris describes client progress, restructuring her business after her ex-husband’s death, preparing an August/September launch, and creating an accountability community outside Facebook, plus a supportive week including events and seeing Snow Patrol. In struggles, Chris reflects on grief, nervous system responses, being the only parent left for her adult children, and feeling time pass; Richard shares feeling stuck between old and new identities, imposter syndrome, and balancing accountability with grace, likening the transition to a messy construction site.
