For Startup Founders, what could you use the most help with? How would you fill in the blanks: If I had _________________then I could _______________________________. More...I'm a founder-turned-startup coach who's building a group coaching program for startup founders. Your feedback would be super helpful!Below are the areas that I plan to tackle in the group program. There will be homework assignments and feedback given on each module. The mindset pieces will follow you through the entire program and shift from clarity/purpose exercises to performance focus as you progress through the program. What do you think about these modules? Which ones would be helpful to you and which ones would you not be interested in? What areas am I missing that you could use help with?

These sound like great modules! I'd be most excited about product market fit, as I've found that extremely hard to approach and get right in my (limited) experience. Building an MVP is great too -- it's so common to over-build and understand what really is your minimum viable product -- i.e., what's the least you can build while still getting viable results. And, similarly, what are the resources you can use to do so without code and/or design skills?Another area might be identifying the right business model (not sure if you're considering this part of cash flow projections, but I think it's worth calling out separately)
dealing with the emotional rollercoaster of that MVP/early stage startup phase, and also keeping healthy
Do you have a co-founder or someone that helps with the workload? Having someone you can share your worries and workload can help tremendously in reducing the stress that comes with managing and streamlining the business process of a startup.
I do. I have a great co-founder and we share the workload. Previously, I've worked in product engineering teams, and having a wider team of people to work with is what I've missed. Doesn't mean we'll not get there (i.e. build our company/team to be able to do that), but COVID + social isolation has made this more challenging this year :(
