Podcasts about grind culture

In this episode of Run the Numbers, CJ Gustafson sits down with Ivan Makarov, Operating Partner at Andreessen Horowitz and former VP of Finance at Webflow, to explore what it takes to build a finance function from scratch inside a fast-growing startup. Ivan shares lessons from the trenches—how to decide between outsourcing and hiring in-house, what makes a great first finance hire, and why early-stage companies often run out of cash before they run out of ideas. He also dives into fundraising pitfalls, audit readiness, and the tools that make up a modern finance stack. Beyond the spreadsheets, Ivan opens up about the shift from operator to venture partner, the value of helping founders avoid his past mistakes, and what makes an offsite actually work.—LINKS:Ivan Makarov on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ivansmakarov/Andreessen Horowitz: https://a16z.com/CJ on X (@cjgustafson222): https://x.com/cjgustafson222Mostly metrics: https://www.mostlymetrics.comRELATED EPISODES:Webflow's VP Finance Ivan Makarov on Understanding Startup Equity:Portfolio Operations: This Is What You Actually Have To Do To Make Sure a Company Is Successful:Brex COO/CFO Michael Tannenbaum on Taking Risks996 Culture, Exploding AI Bills & SaaS Chaos—TIMESTAMPS:(00:00:00) Preview, Intro(00:01:18) Meet Ivan Makarov of Andreessen Horowitz & Episode Setup(00:02:39) Sponsor – Tipalti | Aleph | Rillet(00:06:51) From Webflow to Andreessen: Becoming an Operating Partner(00:09:19) When and Why Founders Hire Their First Finance Leader(00:12:52) Hiring Early in Complex or Regulated Industries(00:13:58) The First Finance Hire in 2025 vs. 2015(00:15:46) Sponsor – Fidelity Private Shares | Mercury | RightRev(00:19:02) The Many Hats of Finance Leaders & The Rise of RevOps(00:24:55) What Founders Look For: Startup DNA and Work Ethic(00:26:05) Grind Culture, Return to Office, and New Expectations(00:28:20) From BizOps to RevOps: How Finance Roles Are Evolving(00:31:57) The First 12 Months of a Finance Leader's Playbook(00:35:05) Choosing Audit Partners and Avoiding Hidden Costs(00:36:32) Why Startups Really Fail — Running Out of Cash(00:39:16) Cash Controls, Banking Diversification, and Fraud Prevention(00:43:48) Fundraising Red Flags: Metrics, Definitions, and Diligence(00:47:50) 409A Valuations, Equity Clarity & Candidate Questions(00:50:09) The Modern Finance Tech Stack & Gen 3 Tools(00:55:05) AI's Impact: Replacing Labor, Not People(01:00:00) Offsites, Team Building & The Future of Finance Leadership(01:02:28) Wrapping Up: Reflections, Gratitude & Closing Credits—SPONSORS:Tipalti automates the entire payables process—from onboarding suppliers to executing global payouts—helping finance teams save time, eliminate costly errors, and scale confidently across 200+ countries and 120 currencies.

Hustle culture nearly destroyed my health, my marriage, and my ability to be present for my daughters. In this deeply personal episode, I share why I stopped glorifying the grind and learned that working smarter not harder is the real path to sustainable success. From leaving Deloitte to build BudgetDog while caring for my daughter with Dravet syndrome, to discovering toxic mold that threatened our entire family's health, this is the raw truth about what endless hustle really costs. I'll walk you through the moments that forced me to choose between proving my worth through output and actually being present for what matters. Episode Timeline & Highlights [0:00] - Why hustle culture almost broke me [1:04] - The Big Four grind: Last man standing from my starting class [2:31] - Building a business from scratch isn't what Instagram tells you [3:44] - The moment everything changed: Logan's first seizure at 5 months [6:46] - October 2022: Turning the car around in a Michigan snowstorm [11:17] - The diagnosis that explained everything: Mold mycotoxins [14:19] - $300,000 gone in two months—and why we had to leave everything behind [20:04] - Dallas ice storm: Heart rate of 203 and another house rejection [23:13] - The health markers that scared us straight [29:10] - Making $1 million sitting by the pool vs. hundreds of thousands in a cubicle [32:34] - My new operating model: High-intensity spurts, not endless hustle [34:56] - Setting boundaries that actually stick Key Takeaways 1. Seasons of sacrifice are necessary staying there forever is dangerous - There's a time to grind, but knowing when to stop is what separates success from self-destruction 2. Your biggest breakthroughs come from rest, not burnout - The most strategic moves happen when you step back and think, not when you're drowning in details 3. Health markers don't lie - When your cortisol is shot and your testosterone drops, your body is telling you something the hustle bros won't   Quotables "I made $1 million sitting at a pool. I made a couple hundred thousand sitting in a cubicle at Deloitte." "You can run on the treadmill to get in shape, but if you run on it forever, you're going to fall off and hurt yourself." "Sustainable success comes from clarity, not chaos." "Our disadvantage led to our advantage if my daughter didn't have that seizure, we would've stayed in that toxic house much longer."   Links & Resources Learn more about BudgetDog Academy: https://budgetdog.com Connect with me on Instagram: https://instagram.com/budgetdog My book, The Roadmap to Financial Freedom: https://budgetdog.com/book If this episode resonated with you, share it with someone who needs to hear that rest isn't giving up it's gearing up for what's next.

End chaos in your firm—300+ peers use this framework. Free video here: https://www.businessofarchitecture.com/framework Enoch Sears and Rion Willard tackle the myth of hustle and grind. Why do smart architects work more yet feel behind? They walk through the real cost and hint at a better path that frees your time, profits, and nerves. They share stories from studio all-nighters, a high-stakes talk in Austin, and a sharp lesson on leadership. You'll hear a clean way to pick what to stop, what to keep, and what to hand off. Most of all, they show how ease beats force when you build your firm. The 30-second check that exposes hidden grind—and what it reveals about your pipeline, projects, and pride this week. A quiet switch of leaders flips to stop bottlenecks, lift team ownership, and unlock profit without longer hours or late nights. The garden-style tactic that attracts better clients, calmer weeks, and growth that feels aligned—and lasts, without chasing or forcing deals.

Imagine a factory where the workers come in for eight hour shifts. At the end of each shift, a whistle blows to signal that it's time to pack up and go home. It's eight hours of work and then time to punch out. There's a new and different working trend among young adults that's been labeled as “grind culture” or “hustle culture.” Works days are marked by a work hard and don't go home mentality, all in an effort to increase production and climb the ladder. The World Health Organization reports that four hundred and eighty-eight million people around the world are putting in more than fifty five hours a week at work. As Christians, we are to work as unto the Lord. We are to be hard workers who pursue excellence. But if the motivating factor to our hard work is about bringing glory to something or someone other than God, then we are engaging in idolatry. Teach your children to see work as an act of worship, without sacrificing time with family, and time with the Lord.

Featuring: Coach R.L. Simmons, Money Mike (The Green Order), & Yaz Franco----In this episode of the 7th Cents Podcast, Coach R.L. Simmons, Money Mike (The Green Order), and Yaz Franco dig deep into the toxic side of hustle culture — the obsession with working 80+ hours a week, glorifying “the grind,” and wearing burnout like a badge of honor.

From the chaos of modern schedules to the pressure to do it all, we're cutting through the noise to talk about how flexibility, consistency, and mindset shifts can help you stay in the game without burning out. We share how our own routines have evolved—especially as parents, business owners, and health professionals—and how you can build sustainable habits that don't require perfection. Plus, we weigh in on the ancestral health debate, shifting your mindset for better outcomes, and the small actions that actually move the needle for long-term health. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed or just trying to find a rhythm that works, this one's for you. What You'll Learn: Why balance doesn't mean 50/50, and what to aim for instead How to stay consistent when life gets chaotic The mindset shift that makes health sustainable Where ancestral health advice falls short in the modern world Why your version of self-care matters more than any trend Press play, and let's build a life where health supports your hustle—not drains it.

   WHAT IF THE VERY THING WE'VE BEEN CONDITIONED TO SEE AS WEAKNESS IS ACTUALLY OUR GREATEST SOURCE OF POWER? IN A WORLD THAT GLORIFIES PRODUCTIVITY AND ENDLESS HUSTLE, REST IS OFTEN TREATED AS AN AFTERTHOUGHT-SOMETHING TO BE EARNED, DELAYED, OR SACRIFICED. BUT WHAT IF REST IS MORE THAN JUST SLEEP? WHAT IF IT'S A RADICAL ACT OF RESISTANCE, A WAY TO RECLAIM OUR HUMANITY FROM THE FORCES THAT SEEK TO GRIND US DOWN? THROUGH PERSONAL REFLECTION AND HISTORICAL INSIGHT, THIS EXPLORATION CHALLENGES THE MYTHS WE TELL OURSELVES ABOUT REST AND DARES US TO IMAGINE A DIFFERENT WAY OF BEING-ONE WHERE REST ISN'T A LUXURY, BUT A NECESSITY FOR JUSTICE, JOY, AND LIBERATION.

Life is tough. Not always.  But along the way.  And even after you get past one struggle, that doesn't mean there isn't another one up ahead.  That's just the nature of life. It doesn't mean you are doing anything wrong or that the world, God, or the Universe is out to teach you a lesson.  It's just the nature of life. You may notice 2 crowds.  First is the "Grind Culture" that just says to suck it up, keep on grinding, and MAKE it work.  They have a point that you have to get through some tough times.  But sometimes, it is wise to step back and ask if the fight is worth it. Then there is the "Sign Culture."  That group tells you that any struggle is an indication you are on the wrong path, that something is wrong with you, and that life "should" be easy... if you are doing it right.  They have a point that sometimes, a struggle is pointing to you moving the wrong way... swimming upstream.  But the fact is, life means struggles... at times. So what do you do to hold up when life gets you down? We discuss it... and 5 things to do... on this episode of the Thriveology Podcast.  Listen below.

Welcome to the College Parent Podcast!  On this week's episode, RDs Chad Clark and Sam Herlihy interview Doreen Dodgen-Magee, a psychologist, speaker, & author about navigating "Grind Culture" in college. Let's dive into the episode! 

Imagine a factory where the workers come in for eight hour shifts. At the end of each shift, a whistle blows to signal that it's time to pack up and go home. It's eight hours of work and then time to punch out. There's a new and different working trend among young adults that's been labeled as “grind culture” or “hustle culture.” Works days are marked by a work hard and don't go home mentality, all in an effort to increase production and climb the ladder. The World Health Organization reports that four hundred and eighty-eight million people around the world are putting in more than fifty five hours a week at work. As Christians, we are to work as unto the Lord. We are to be hard workers who pursue excellence. But if the motivating factor to our hard work is about bringing glory to something or someone other than God, then we are engaging in idolatry. Teach your children to see work as an act of worship, without sacrificing time with family, and time with the Lord.

On this World Mental Health Day, a groundbreaking study has been published about how social media intersects with various pressures teens feel (e.g. the pressure to have a game plan, to achieve, to be good friends, to look certain ways, etc.). In this episode, we hear from teens themselves about their experiences of these pressures, and then we hear from researchers from the Center for Digital Thriving, Common Sense Media, and Indiana University about teen feelings of pressure and burnout on a national scale. To learn more about this research, check out the report and the Center for Digital Thriving's website.

[Video available on YouTube]  Welcome back to Diary of a Drop-Out, with me, Naomi Balderson. Today's episode is all about rethinking a habit that often gets a bad reputation: procrastination. But not the kind that derails us—the kind that can actually ignite our creativity and help us push back against toxic productivity culture. I'll be sharing my own story, from being perpetually last-minute to understanding how to harness the natural waves of inspiration in a way that's both productive and kind to myself. We'll explore how procrastination isn't always the enemy—it can actually be a powerful tool for creativity and self-discovery when approached with compassion and awareness. I'll share insights on finding the balance between a slow, intentional way of living and working hard to make your dreams a reality. We'll discuss how taking breaks and allowing ourselves time to rest can be a necessary part of the creative process, giving our brains the space to subconsciously work on ideas and make new connections. If you've ever felt guilty for procrastinating or struggled to balance ambition with self-care, this episode is for you. Join me as we challenge the grind culture mindset and redefine what it means to be productive and inspired.  How can you embrace your own natural rhythms to create a life that feels both fulfilling and true to you?

From the founder and creator of The Nap Ministry, Rest Is Resistance by Tricia Hersey "is a battle cry, a guidebook, a map for a movement, and a field guide for the weary and hopeful. This book is rooted in spiritual energy and centered in Black liberation, womanism, somatics, and Afrofuturism. With captivating storytelling and practical advice, all delivered in Hersey's lyrical voice and informed by her deep experience in theology, activism, and performance art, Rest Is Resistance is a call to action and manifesto for those who are sleep deprived, searching for justice, and longing to be liberated from the oppressive grip of Grind Culture." https://thenapministry.com/ Join Moni and Kat this week as they unpack what it means to find rest in the midst of living life or if it's even possible.
