Built to Last: The Mental Resilience Every Social Entrepreneur Needs with Mohamed (Mo) Ahmed
Social entrepreneurs out there, this one's for you: Yes, you built something incredible from nothing. Yes, your work is changing lives, making things easier for so many. Yes, you create jobs and provide financial security for dozens of families. But no, you don't have (nor should you have) all the answers. No, you're not meant to do everything alone. You don't have to play God.
In this episode, I'm excited to be joined by Mohamed Ahmed. Mo is an AI Business Leader specializing in AI Cloud Infrastructure at Intel with a track record of scaling AI-driven ventures. He is also the Author of "The Inside-Out Entrepreneur" and the Founder and President of Boundless Founder. Relying on his many years of experience (and the hundreds of lessons learned the hard way), Mo helps entrepreneurs build the mental resilience and strategic clarity they need to scale their businesses.
Tune in and listen to the sixty-seventh episode of Avant-garde Entrepreneur. You'll hear Mo's unique recipe to build the resilience and mental endurance you need to take your social enterprise to the next level without sacrificing your mental health or jeopardizing your relationship with your family. Mo also shares his thoughts on the importance of seeking mentors and advisors, why he believes it is crucial to rely on family and friends to succeed as an entrepreneur, and much more.
