Matt and Anne break down the real difference between a startup and a lifestyle business. Matt shares how ChipBot evolved from 110% startup grind to a sustainable, founder-led company—and why effort, not just capital, defines the startup mindset. They discuss growth pressure, investor expectations, personal sacrifices, and even how companies like OpenAI are still startups despite their size.
