Scale Back to Scale Up

Scale Back to Scale Up Dr. Seku Gathers

Good People,

Time to switch things up again! On this episode of The Truth Prescription, I’m sitting down with Allan Boomer and Tiffany Hawkins on The Momentum Advisors Podcast. We talk about my entrepreneurial journey and how that intertwines with my career as a physician, and why I ultimately transitioned into entrepreneurship. Specifically, I tell stories around my first business in New York, how that went, and some of my regrets about how I handled the end of that business. We also talked about some tips on how to be a successful entrepreneur, the importance of growth, and how you can outgrow your ability to scale a business.
