Most founders obsess over revenue growth.

Very few talk about what growth does to the person leading it.

In this final pre-launch episode of The Building Business Relationships Show, Matt Stone sits down with Theresa Cantley, growth architect to CEOs and founders, for a candid conversation about the internal side of scaling a business.

Theresa shares stories from both ends of the leadership spectrum — the boss who nearly broke her, the mentor who changed her trajectory, and the identity shifts that happen as founders rise.

This episode explores:

• why leaders lose connection to themselves as they scale
• the difference between revenue growth and human growth
• how toxic leadership can catalyze entrepreneurship
• why identity work is foundational for CEOs
• what it means to build from the inside out

If you’re leading a team, building a company, or stepping into your next level, this conversation will challenge what you prioritize — and why.

This episode also marks the close of the pre-launch run of The Building Business Relationships Show and the transition to The Bigger Stage w/ Matt Stone.
