This episode is better than most business and personal development books and podcast. “Crucible moment” has applications not just for entrepreneurship but in life.
Awesome interview, thanks Jason! Just had a meeting with Sequoia earlier this morning actually :)
Great interview, I can see why Roelof is leading the firm now. Irrespective of their occasional missteps
Awesome interview!
