What happens when the bank pulls a million-dollar line of funding two weeks before your launch? Or when you buy a $20 million company only to discover on day one that the books were completely fabricated and you are facing immediate payroll collapse?
In this episode, serial entrepreneur Mike Hammond opens up his 25-year playbook of launching 15 multi-million dollar companies. He breaks down the practical mechanics of risk, the reality behind failure statistics, and why the ultimate entrepreneurial superpower has nothing to do with market strategy—and everything to do with the biblical principle of letting go of what you cannot control.
Plus, Mike shares the incredible origin story of Signal Relief, a non-invasive, military-grade Technology that is transforming pain management across the globe.
