Anti-hustle Entrepreneurship: Building a Business That Fits Real Life

from b. frank Podcast · host Firuze Cisem Odabasi

Most startup advice is built around burnout. Hannah built a business designed to fit real life, and still stay profitable.On our first episode of b. frank podcast, we have Hannah Phang, founder of The Now Work, to break down what it really takes to build a career and a business in sustainability without the "hustle culture".We talk about:- Building a sustainable business model. How to design work around real life, and still stay strategic and profitable.- Credibility before communication. Why sustainability comms can backfire if the strategy and infrastructure are not there first, and what “foundation first” actually looks like.- Careers, portfolios, and relationships. Why proof of work and personal connections often beat generic applications, plus what to focus on if you are early-career.If you’re a student or young professional trying to break into sustainability, entrepreneurship, or climate-related work, take this episode as a practical guide: build a portfolio that shows your thinking, get close to real problems, ship small MVPs to learn faster, and invest in relationships that open doors.instagram - tiktok - linkedin:  @b.frankpodcast ​
