In this episode, Arick Wierson sits down with Mike Nathan, one of the Twin Cities’ most prolific startup investors, best known for his work in healthcare ventures, but with a portfolio that spans everything from whiskey to tele-legal platforms.
A partner at Exit 156 Capital, Nathan has earned a reputation as a CEO whisperer — someone with an uncanny ability to read entrepreneurs and see around the curve before anyone else. He shares hard-won lessons from years of building, funding, and scaling startups: how to spot great founders, when to walk away, and what it really takes to win early-stage.
Wierson also explores Nathan’s latest evolution. His emergence as a modern business influencer. On LinkedIn and beyond, Nathan has built a loyal following with his sharp, short-form takes on leadership, strategy, and growth — and he opens up about what inspired him to start creating content of his own.
A fast-moving, insight-packed conversation on investing, influence, and the instincts that separate good entrepreneurs from great ones.
