Some of my favorite episodes of Masters of Scale are with entrepreneurs addressing problems that are so obvious in hindsight and where the founders themselves didn’t even realize they were the ones to found the companies and create the solutions. The stories resonate even more when the founders are solving problems they deal with personally. This is the one with Lauren Wang from The Flex Co. I think you’re going to love her and her journey will resonate with so many of you. Links in comments below.
