🎙️ EOE Ep 4 - The Entrepreneur Gene — Sid Mohasseb on Redefining Risk, Failure, and Change

Guest: Sid Mohasseb, Entrepreneur Philosopher | Founder of Anabasis Academy

What if entrepreneurship isn’t just a profession—it’s part of your DNA?

IThis one’s for the builders. The thinkers. The quiet risk-takers. The “I have an idea, but…” crowd.

Sid Mohasseb isn’t just an investor, educator, or founder—he’s a philosophical firestarter. In this conversation, he breaks down entrepreneurship as something far deeper than business. It’s a birthright. A way of seeing. A way of exchanging what we have for something better—even when the outcome is uncertain.

You don’t need a startup to be an entrepreneur. You just need a pulse and the willingness to choose. Every decision—every deck you build, every pivot you make, every “ordinary” choice—is a risk exchange. And Sid argues that it’s in our genetic code.

We go deep into:

  • Why entrepreneurs aren’t risk-takers—they’re risk navigators

  • What Martin Luther King and Mother Teresa have to do with entrepreneurship

  • How to stop chasing failure and start chasing learning

  • The mindset shift that turns daily life into creative fuel

  • Why “fearless” is bad advice—and “mindful fear” is where the power is

  • The #1 myth about minimum viable products (and who really defines viability)

“Change is our best friend,” Sid says. “It’s the only thing that gives us options.”

This is one of the most clarifying, energizing, and perspective-flipping episodes we’ve done. If you’ve ever felt called to do something more—this will remind you: you already have what it takes.

What are you willing to exchange for something better?
