SOBRE ESTE EPISÓDIO
In this episode of The Founder's Growth Podcast, host John Hill, AKA Small Mountain, sits down with close friend Quentin "Q" Allums, Business Coach for Creators and Content-Driven Founders at QuentinAllums.com.
After closing his highly successful personal branding and video agency in 2020 following personal loss and pandemic shifts, Quentin went offline for several years to examine how public perception was quietly ruining his business and health.
Together, John and Quentin unpack what happens when founder mindset gets trapped by vanity metrics, and how to shift from anger-fueled growth to sustainable devotion.
They also explore:
- Practical strategies for B2B selling,
- Sales hiring and professional leadership,
- And scaling a business by making intentional choices "upstream."
Whether you're navigating a startup pivot, drowning in a business you resent (even if it looks good on paper), or stepping back to analyze what you really should be doing, this honest conversation offers actionable clarity on building a resilient enterprise focused on real progress rather than optics.
