About this listen
Feeling stuck, unmotivated, or quietly wondering if you’re cut out for entrepreneurship? You’re not alone—and you’re not broken. In this episode of The Soft Startup Podcast, we’re talking honestly about the founder funk: that heavy, foggy season where momentum stalls, confidence dips, and everything feels harder than it should.
We’ll unpack:
- What a founder funk actually is (and why it’s so common for bootstrapped entrepreneurs)
- The difference between burnout, boredom, and misalignment
- Gentle, practical ways to get unstuck without hustling harder or forcing motivation
- How to reconnect with your original vision—or evolve it without guilt
- Small mindset and strategy shifts that can help you move forward again
If you’re building a business slowly, sustainably, and on your own terms—but feel like you’ve lost your spark—this episode is your reminder that you can pause, recalibrate, and keep going.
✨ Perfect for: early-stage founders, solopreneurs, creatives, and anyone building a business while trying to protect their energy.
