In this thought-provoking episode, host Bo Kemp explores a question every founder must eventually face: Are you building an empire — or chasing a payday?

This conversation dives deep into the distinction between creating generational wealth through long-term empire building versus scaling and exiting quickly for short-term gain. Bo challenges listeners to get clear about their purpose and strategic vision — because that clarity is the foundation for understanding if, when, and how much capital your business truly needs.

Key insights include why most businesses don’t fail from lack of funding — but from growing too fast and outpacing their resources, how the Sustainable Growth Equation can help you determine your business’s capacity to scale responsibly, the hidden costs of premature capital raises, and the value of proving your model before you raise, and why intentional strategy beats hustle when it comes to raising capital with confidence.

Whether you're a solo founder bootstrapping your dream or a seasoned entrepreneur eyeing your next raise, this episode will help you assess your growth path with more discipline and direction.
