GROW INTO IT: The Entrepreneur’s Manual You Wish You Had at the Start
You’re not chasing perfection—you’re chasing possibility.
Maybe you’re building something from scratch. Maybe you’re scaling your second act. Either way, you’ve realized this game isn’t about flashy funding rounds or viral launches. It’s about staying in the ring long enough to win—and doing it without burning out or selling out.
You’ve hit the moments of doubt. The nights staring at spreadsheets. The early mornings wondering if you’re building something that will last—or if you’re just building yourself into the ground. You’re resourceful, driven, and maybe a little tired of advice from people who haven’t built a damn thing.
This book was written for you.
I never set out to be an author. I set out to build.
After two decades growing companies in Europe and the U.S., investing in ventures, and mentoring founders, I saw patterns in what actually works. Grow Into It was born not from theory, but from lived experience—like launching a medical device startup with my father on a tiny budget, no investors, and scaling it to 100 countries.
This book is a manual for entrepreneurs who want to build sustainably, scale intentionally, and lead without losing themselves.
Each chapter tackles a real part of the journey: overcoming perfectionism, bootstrapping with grit, validating your idea, building a team, managing energy, and playing the long game. It’s strategic without being abstract. Honest without being discouraging. Practical, grounded, and battle-tested.
If you’re tired of startup porn and hype-fueled hustle, this is your alternative. This is the book I wish I had when I started.
You’re not alone on this path—and you don’t have to figure it all out the hard way.
Where are you on your journey? Or, is this book for?
Grow Into It is your invitation to build smarter, grow stronger, and stay grounded while doing it. If you’re a founder, creative, or solopreneur forging your own path—this is for you.
