When securities attorney & serial entrepreneur Bethany LaFlam watched her first investment fund implode, she lost more than cash—she lost confidence. In this premiere of ADAPT or Die, host Andreas Pettersson unpacks the exact moment Bethany hit rock-bottom, the mindset pivot that set her free, and the measurable wins that followed.
- Challenge → A brilliantly complex $50 M fund no investor could understand—followed by debt, doubt, and angry LPs.
- Adaptation → Bethany gave herself permission to fail forward, invested in masterminds & coaching, and coined her core philosophy: OPE—Other People’s Everything.
- Success → She rebuilt credit, launched a thriving securities law firm, and now helps founders leverage other people’s money, skills, and ideas to scale safely.
🔥 60-Second Hot Seat: Bethany’s mantra for overwhelm—“I can do hard things”—and how to spot (and prune) misaligned partnerships fast.
