A new podcast from Linda van Egmond about honest shifts and smart moves for overwhelmed, mission-driven founders.
You're building an impact business that matters, but you're drowning in decisions and day-to-day actions. This Is Harder than I Want It to Be gives overwhelmed impact founders practical frameworks to delegate effectively, build independent teams, and create systems that work for you.
Linda van Egmond draws from a lot of failure and success during 20 years of supporting impact startups, and running her own B-corp start-up, to deliver 5-8 minute episodes. One shift, one tool, one step forward. New episodes every other Thursday.

Fractional CMO & Integrator aka Temporary Co-Founder for Impact Founders
If you want someone to tell you you're doing great..., I’m not your person.
If you want to know exactly why your company isn’t scaling the way it should, and how to fix it, that’s my zone.
I step into the messy middle: between “we have great plans” and “we’re actually pulling them off.” The part where everything feels urgent, but nothing is running as smoothly as it should. There I fix the stuff you don’t want to deal with (but know you should).
I’m a Fractional Integrator, or temporary co-founder, for impact-driven founders who want to grow without burning out or losing sight of their mission.
