“I started this Mastermind in 2010 I believe... it's been two of us once a month since 2010 now 13 years I mean just with this one other guy... masterminds are huge I used to be in two masterminds because I wanted every you know and they were every other week”

Masterminds beat conferences and communities as the solo-founder antidote

Rob's ranking of solo-founder antidotes, strongest first: (1) masterminds — small group, recurring, real accountability; (2) in-person events; (3) communities. He's been in one mastermind with the same partner for 13 straight years, monthly. MicroConf's mastermind matching has paired ~800-1000 founders with ~$150M collective MRR. If you're a solo founder spiraling, this is the single highest-leverage intervention.
