In this episode of Beyond Four Walls, host Sean digs deep with Steven Vaivada of Scout Engineering to explore how space, environment, and community shape the way teams grow, collaborate, and survive the wild ride of entrepreneurship. From startup chaos to Work Nicer camaraderie, Stephen shares how being surrounded by ambitious, slightly unhinged people (his words, not ours) transformed his business—and his mindset. Tune in to Beyond Four Walls, where there are no sharks, no suits...just guts, grit, and great conversation.
