Most people don't build a SaaS company after getting buried in an avalanche.
But Evan Huck isn't most people.
In this episode, Mark and Evan click into their boards and rewind the tape - from Evan's first startup sales gig to the near-death moment that completely changed how he shows up as a founder.
On the lift, through the trees, and in between turns, they dig into the stories that shaped Evan's philosophy on growth, grit, and second chances.
What's on the mountain:
• The Avalanche: A slide that left Evan buried and unconscious
• The Aftermath: How surviving that day reset his life and leadership style
• Early Sales Days: From cold calls to closing deals at a bootstrapped startup
• Scaling from Scratch: Lessons from building a 60-person team without a playbook
• Bootstrap vs. Venture: What Evan learned doing both - and how it shows up in the metrics
• Show Up, Don't Show Off: Why consistency beats flash when you're building something real
This one's a mix of powder, perspective, and no-BS founder stories - straight from the chairlift.
