 Anger as a Compass: How Founders Can Use Emotion to Set Clearer Boundaries and Make Better DecisionsMost entrepreneurs are taught to suppress anger—or worse, use it as a weapon. But what if anger isn’t something to avoid… but something to listen to?In this episode of The Heart of Entrepreneurship, Jesse and Dave explore how anger, when processed healthily, becomes one of the most powerful tools a founder can access.
