About this listen

In this episode of the MVP Pod, we delve into an intriguing concept known as "going from -1 to 0." This concept was coined by Ruchi Sanghvi, the founder of South Park Commons. We were fascinated by this idea and believe it holds immense value for product builders and entrepreneurs.

The idea of going from -1 to 0 refers to the initial phase where individuals strive to determine their path and what they want to accomplish in the next five to ten years of their lives. It's a period characterized by uncertainty, messiness, and confusion. According to Ruchi, this phase is often the most challenging part of entrepreneurship as it involves finding the right idea to pursue rather than achieving product-market fit.

Check out the full article by Ruchi that sparked our conversation here.

As always, we are constantly looking to improve The MVP Pod as our goal is to make building successful products easier by sharing stories and learnings of other products and builders. We would appreciate it if you could tweet or dm us⁠⁠ @m2s4n⁠⁠ and⁠⁠ @harrysiva_⁠⁠ with your feedback!
