How to Become Irreplaceable to a Visionary Founder with Jeremy Bergeron

Companion to the MaxLife episode with Jeremy Bergeron

Jeremy Bergeron walked up to a busy founder, said 'why don't I just jump into that role,' worked 30 days for free, and built one of the most trusted partnerships in his field. The principle: the right opening rarely comes with a job posting.

▶ Watch the full episode with Jeremy Bergeron for deeper context on how to approach these questions
01

The Gap You Keep Seeing

Where do you keep thinking 'someone should really be handling this,' and quietly wondering if that someone is you?

02

The Reason You Stay Quiet

When you picture stepping into that gap, what do you tell yourself about why you're not the right person for it?

I don't speak up because I tell myself ___.
03

Your Messy Past Fits

Think of the jobs, skills, and detours in your past that don't seem to add up to anything, the stuff that feels random. Which of those odd pieces are actually the exact combination this gap needs?

04

Holding Space, Not Just Doing

The best number-twos add the quiet stuff nobody puts on a job description (steadiness, trust, attention). What would you bring that can't be measured but would be missed if it were gone?

Calm when things breakTrust people feel fastNoticing what's unsaidFollowing through quietlyReading the roomMaking others braver
05

Offer Before They Ask

Jeremy didn't apply. He offered to prove it for 30 days. What small, low-risk version of that offer could you make to one specific person this week?

You already know the door you've been standing outside of, waiting for someone to open it. The whole thing is just knocking before you feel ready. What changes the day you decide the someone who handles it is you?
