Because sitting comfortably never changed anything.

This blog isn’t for cheerleading or clichés.
It won’t echo what everyone already thinks, and it’s not here to play nice with the status quo.
The Squeaky Chair is where my discomfort gets a seat at the table — and where I’ll explore the things most people avoid.
It’s where friction isn’t a failure — it’s a signal.
I work with leaders, entrepreneurs, investors, and ventures who want to do things differently.
Not for the sake of being different, but because the old ways don’t work for what matters now.
Here, I’ll explore:
The gap between what’s written in strategy decks and what’s actually felt in the room.
The myths, defaults, and “best practices” that keep getting repeated without question.
The tension between purpose and profit — and why it’s not either/or.
Why clarity so often begins with discomfort.
This is a space for thought, not noise.
For progress, not posturing.
For people who don’t mind the squeak — because they’re more interested in the shift.
Welcome to The Squeaky Chair.
Let’s sit with what matters.
