When business partners try to create a non-hustle work culture

My business partner and I are trying to build a company culture that isn't about grinding and hustle, where people can think deeply and work sustainably, but we're fighting against every business norm and half our team thinks we're naive while the other half gets frustrated that we're not moving fast enough. We're questioning everything about growth and pace and whether we're building something real or just being idealistic.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Two leaders are attempting to embody a different relationship with time while navigating the tension between vision and practical pressures.
