About this listen
What do you do when the thing that breaks your product becomes the thing that saves your company?
Sam Chlebowski — Co-founder of Motion.io platform — joins Scaling Station to tell the behind-the-scenes story nobody expects: the chaotic night that exposed a flaw, the gut-wrenching decision to pivot, and the unlikely sequence that turned panic into purpose.
You’ll ride the tense moments with Sam:
• 🌙 The midnight incident that nearly shut everything down — and the moral choice that followed.
• 🔧 The 48-hour hack that revealed a hidden user behavior no one studied.
• 🚀 The counterintuitive playbook they used to turn breakdown into traction.
Bold takeaway: product mistakes can be strategic signals if you know how to listen.
This is a raw founder confession — filled with real metrics, cultural trade-offs, and the exact decisions that rewired growth strategy.
Don’t just watch—learn the mindset that turns crisis into runway. Join us, apply one tactic this week, and report back.
