The Woes of Middle Entrepreneurship

Do you remember that weird in-between stage of life—when you weren’t a kid anymore but not quite a teenager?

It was a time of trying to figure out who you were and where you belonged. Believe it or not, entrepreneurship has a similar stage, where you’re no longer a beginner but not yet at the pinnacle of success either. This is what we call “middle entrepreneurship,” a phase where you’ve moved beyond the early struggles of getting your business off the ground, but the next level of growth seems frustratingly out of reach. 

You know your stuff, but navigating the path ahead feels tricky and uncertain. Sound familiar? Don’t worry, you’re in good company—and we’re here to help you push through this stage and keep climbing.

Starting a business? 

There’s no shortage of advice out there. But once you’re in the trenches, running the day-to-day, the conversation changes—and not always in ways that are helpful. It’s easy to get caught up in the grind, but what about when you’re no longer in startup mode? 

Welcome to middle entrepreneurship, the often-overlooked middle child of the business world.

At this point, you’ve already passed the initial stages of ideation and validation. Now, you’re in the thick of the Growth phase—a phase that’s all about scaling, but often feels like you’re spinning your wheels. 

You’re not a rookie, but you’re not yet where you want to be, and the path forward is full of twists and turns. This phase is crucial; many entrepreneurs plateau, stuck between maintaining momentum and striving for more.

But here’s the thing you don’t have to stay here. As a Movement Maker, you’re driven by more than just growth for the sake of growth. You’re aiming for something bigger—lasting impact. And that means not getting comfortable in the Growth phase, but pushing through it to reach the Creative Expansion and Transition phases–where real change happens.

Feeling stuck? 

It might be time to take a closer look at where you stand. If you’re curious about your business phase you can find out by taking our FREE Impact Equation quiz, and discover how to keep moving forward.
