On this episode of The Kara Goldin Show, we’re joined by Kass Lazerow, serial entrepreneur, investor, and co-author of the upcoming book Shoveling Sh!t: A Love Story About the Entrepreneur’s Messy Path to Success. Kass has helped build and scale companies like Golf.com) and Buddy Media (acquired by Salesforce for $745 million), invested in over 100 startups, and mentored countless founders navigating the chaos of startup life.During our conversation, Kass shares the raw and real journey of entrepreneurship—what it really takes to build something from scratch, and why embracing the messy, unglamorous parts of the process is what separates those who survive from those who thrive. We talk about building businesses with your partner, learning to fail forward, choosing the right co-founders, and the emotional toll leadership can take when no one’s watching. Kass also dives into lessons from her book, written with her husband and fellow founder Mike Lazerow, and why this “love story” doubles as a survival manual for every aspiring entrepreneur.Whether you're launching your first startup, scaling your next one, or simply love hearing the truth behind the headlines, this episode is a must-listen. Now on The Kara Goldin Show.
