Summary: What do you do when you quit your great P&G gig to start a company and your best laid plans fall apart? If you’re William Schumacher, you have a midnight brainstorm session, screw up the courage to email a highly sought-after partner, and miraculously get a call back. So began www.uprisingFood.com, which today sells keto bread across the country. On episode 54, William talks about fulfilling a life-long dream of being an entrepreneur, how to separate your identity from your professional performance, and what he learned from his father’s business failure.
