Birthing of Giants Central Texas Information Session: Jan 15, 2026
|
Join Me at the Birthing of Giants Regional Cohort Program Info Session - Austin, TX Date: January 15, 2026 If you're a business owner in Central Texas running a company in the 7-8 digit revenue range, I want to invite you to something I'm genuinely excited about—an info session for the Birthing of Giants Regional Cohort Program. This isn't just another networking event. It's an opportunity to learn about a proven program designed to help you increase your company's value, improve profitability, and scale with clarity and confidence. Why I'm Bringing This to Central Texas After bootstrapping woom bikes USA from $0 to $20MM in revenue and later leading the combined $100MM+ global business as CEO, I experienced firsthand what it's like to build and scale a company. The long hours, the tough decisions, the sleepless nights—those are all part of the journey. But the hardest part? The loneliness. Carrying the weight of the business when no one else truly understands what you're going through. That's why I've joined Birthing of Giants as an Instructor for Central Texas. I'm ready to build a high-performing cohort with a growth mindset and commitment to holding each other accountable while scaling our businesses together. What Makes This Program Different Most coaching programs are led by people who studied business in a classroom. Birthing of Giants is different. It's led by successful business owners who have built, scaled, and exited real companies. These aren't consultants reading from a playbook—they're entrepreneurs who wrote it through hard-earned experience. The Regional Cohort Program brings together motivated, like-minded business owners in Austin and San Antonio who are facing similar growth challenges. You'll work together to tackle the real issues keeping your business from scaling—whether that's refining your business model, building scalable systems, developing stronger leadership teams, or breaking through revenue plateaus. You'll gain access to strategic frameworks like One Year From Today (OYFT), peer accountability from fellow CEOs who are in the trenches right now, and the kind of support that makes the lonely journey less lonely and far more effective. What You'll Learn at the Info Session This info session is designed to give you a clear understanding of what the Regional Cohort Program is, how it works, and whether it's the right fit for your business. Specifically, you'll learn:

If that sounds like you, this session is worth your time. Who This Is NOT For Let me be direct: This program is NOT for you if you're looking for a free ride, lack a growth mindset, aren't highly motivated, won't share openly or engage fully, aren't "in it to win it," or bring a negative mindset to the table. This cohort demands excellence, accountability, and a relentless commitment to growth. If that doesn't describe you, please don't apply. But if it does—if you're ready to show up, do the work, and grow alongside other driven entrepreneurs—then this is exactly where you need to be. Why Now If you've been thinking about taking your business to the next level but aren't sure where to start, this is your opportunity. The Regional Cohort is launching soon, and spots are limited. This program isn't for everyone—it's selective by design to ensure the cohort is filled with committed, high-performing business owners who are ready to grow together. The info session on January 15, 2026 is your chance to learn more, ask questions, and determine whether this is the right move for you and your business. What Happens Next After you register, you'll receive confirmation details including the exact location and time for the info session. Come with questions, come with an open mind, and come ready to explore what's possible for your business. I'm looking forward to meeting you, sharing more about the program, and hearing about your business journey. Whether you decide to join the cohort or not, my goal is to provide value and insight that helps you think differently about growth. Register for the Info Session - January 15, 2026 Can't wait to see you there! Mathias Ihlenfeld Questions? |

Lead with Focus - Mathias Ihlenfeld For founders, executives, and creators who want to lead with vision, not noise Hi My Friends and Supporters, Thanksgiving week always brings me back to gratitude—and this year, I'm feeling it more than ever. You've probably heard that gratitude is good for you, but it's worth repeating: it literally rewires your brain to think more positively. It helps you feel less stressed and anxious, boosts your mood naturally, and makes you happier overall. Plus, when...
Celebrating Women's Founders Reflecting on an Evening of Women Founders and Community Wednesday night at The Modern was one of those evenings I'll carry with me for a long time. Not because everything went perfectly. Not because we had the biggest crowd or the fanciest setup. But because of what happened when we all showed up—14 female founders, 5 brave enough to take the stage, and around 50 people who chose to spend their evening supporting something real. The Power of Showing Up I'm...
In 2019, my company hit $15M in revenue. Inc. 5000. 742% growth rate. Press coverage. The whole nine yards. From the outside, I was crushing it. Inside, I was drowning in questions I couldn't ask anyone: Should I take institutional capital or stay bootstrapped? Is my leadership team capable of scaling to $50M? What decisions am I making today that are killing my exit valuation? My team had opinions but no experience at this scale. My advisors had frameworks but no scars. My successful friends...
