In this episode of the Intelligent Performance Podcast, we sit down with Matthew Stafford, an Angel Investor and one of the authors of 'Find Your 9others,' a book about the unique global '9others' community of entrepreneurs he has co-founded. We dive into Matthew's journey into angel investing, the common misconceptions about Angel Investors, and the story behind 9others. We also navigate through the concept of resilience - how can we teach it as a skill and foster comfort in discomfort?Matthew also shares his insights on utilising gut instincts in decision-making and reflects on how his perception of 'success' has transformed through the journey of 9others. Join us for a conversation that promises to challenge your notions of success, resilience, and intuition in the entrepreneurial world.To learn more about Matthew's work, connect with him on LinkedIn here: https://www.linkedin.com/in/staffordvc, and/or follow 9Others on X (Twitter) here: https://twitter.com/9others.To order a copy of the 'Find your 9other's' book, click here: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/1788604466To learn more about Matthew's VC investing, click here: https://www.stafford.vc
