It's like, as a founder, How do you maintain resilience and adaptability in the face of setbacks and obstacles? And what advice would you give other founders, especially from the lens of when is quitting the right strategy?

Michael GurshaGUEST
I think when you're at a point where you've tried all the things that you want to try or that you think could possibly work with the product that you're trying or the thing you're trying to solve for, and you're just not seeing what you want to see.

Michael GurshaGUEST
At that point, I think It's either quitting to pivot to like a totally different idea or totally different business or quitting to say, look, I'm going to focus on something else, right? I'm going to do something else.
