Christopher shares his unconventional journey into strata management, growing Vantage Strata from zero to more than 14,000 lots under management, and why he ultimately stepped aside from the CEO role. The conversation centres on Taylr Services, a separate venture born from a long-held belief that strata communities represent untapped micro-economies - and why solving this problem is far harder, slower, and more capital-intensive than it appears. Together, they explore founder psychology, raising capital for your own business versus helping others raise, fairness versus ownership, and the hidden cost of building technology without deep technical capability. They also unpack why slow progress can sometimes be an advantage, how optimism shapes risk tolerance, and why founders must eventually focus only on the work where they have true comparative advantage. This episode is an essential listen for founders, CEOs, and operators wrestling with capital raising, venture timing, co-founder dynamics, and the mental load of building something genuinely new.
