Welcome to the Collective, and thank you for your support in reading this newsletter over the past few weeks!

This week, we will be retooling and repairing our newsletter. LinkedIn Founder Reid Hoffman has said that “starting a company is like jumping off a cliff and assembling a plane on the way down,” so naturally, we must take some time to retool the plane that we’ve been working on.

Once this week is over, we’ll be all set to fly high in the best version of our plane as possible.

We’ll be back a week from today, on Monday 9/16, with a new format. We’ll be diving deeper, seeking to answer the questions that define the entrepreneurs and industries of today and tomorrow.

In the meantime, don’t miss this week’s podcast featuring Anja Westhues of Endure, which will be released on YouTube and all podcast platforms tomorrow morning. 

This episode is special because it focuses on what it’s like to run a business in college. If you know any college students, we strongly encourage you to share the episode with them, whether or not they are entrepreneurs. Anja is a role model, an innovator, and a changemaker (who also details expert time management skills for students).

And even if you’re not a student, there are plenty of lessons to learn from Anja's tour de force of knowledge in initial product creation and community building.

That’s all for now! Thank you for bearing with us and we hope you have an impactful and innovative week. As always, stay tuned with us on socials @CoeusCollective.
