Sometimes the next step is a stepping stone. Sometimes it opens doors you didn\u2019t even know existed, and sometimes it leads you to build something completely new. In this episode, I\u2019m talking with Sinon Bennett, a former Navy submarine officer who went on to work in private banking at J.P. Morgan before co-founding Wavvest, a fintech company helping modernize advisor operations and financial planning through AI and technology. Sinon shares what the Navy taught him about problem-solving, how private banking exposed him to a whole new side of money and business, and what it really took to move Wavvest from an idea to a company with paying customers. We also talk about customer discovery, finding the right co-founder, hearing no, knowing when to pivot, and why service members need to think about their financial runway if they want to build something after military service.
