He wants a genuine roadmap for growth, not just more hustle. Preston and Vijay Rajendran, founder coach at Startup System and partner at GAI Ventures, walk through what it actually takes to build that bigger vision: why your values have to come first, the simple three-part framework that keeps a growth roadmap grounded, and how to carve out the mental space to act like a CEO — even when your inbox is full.
