Arvid & Tyler Catch Up Tyler Tringas and Arvid Kahl

Arvid and Tyler finally find a date for the very first Calm MBA milestone. They also find out that they have quite different perspectives on how much structure their week needs. Things like deadlines.
Mark it down. July 7th. And they found that date in just 12 1-hour podcast episodes.

Arvid & Tyler are on fire: not only do they talk about what founders can do when their main source of revenue isn't enough, but they also FINALLY come up with how they will launch the Calm MBA. Brainstormed it live on air. They sure love Building in Public!

Arvid and Tyler share how they tackle prioritization issues — and if you should have many small bets as a calm founder.
It turns out, these questions can't be answered by reflection alone. What matters is doing the right experiments.

Tyler's all healthy again, and Arvid is writing another book. Together, they wonder if they have some sort of "expert-level imposter syndrome." So many influential advice-givers out there have no shame and happily embellish their own stories, yet Tyler and Arvid hesitate to promise even realistic outcomes. You'll find they have a very good reason for that hesitation, and it's a surprising one: intimacy.

Arvid and Tyler discuss Arvid's recent interest in writing and publishing books, including his potential book on building in public — and how it should be published. Tyler also shares his recent struggles with illness and the outpouring of support he has received after announcing staff reductions at the Calm Company Fund. They both reflect on the value of building in public and the community it creates — and how this community can help entrepreneurs navigate the choppy waters of social isolation. Paul Millerd and Dagobert Renouf get shouted out... a lot.

Arvid has returned from MicroConf in Denver, and Tyler has made a few important changes at the Calm Company fund. Beyond catching up, Arvid & Tyler chat about how hard it is to stay a contributing member of your business as a founder when you start hiring people.
