In this episode, I talk with Scott Cohen, the founder of Byte — his biggest win yet. Built without outside investors, Byte sold for over $1 billion, making Scott one of the few to bootstrap a company to that scale. But his success doesn’t stop there. From early ventures to multiple thriving businesses, Scott shares what it really takes to build with vision, grit, and heart. If you love real founder stories, this one’s a must-listen.

If you're curious about the business side of building, leadership under pressure, or what a great CFO actually does—this one’s for you.
