What I Learned From 100+ Young Entrepreneurs in France

What I Learned From 100+ Young Entrepreneurs in France

Author: Andrew Youderian | e-Commerce Entrepreneur August 14, 2026 Duration: 51:29

What if the goal of entrepreneurship wasn't to build the biggest business possible, but to build a business and a life you genuinely don't want to escape from? In this episode, I sit down with Evan Bryce Riddle, co-founder of Art of Mondays, a community for "lifestyle founders" who want to pursue entrepreneurship alongside health, wellness, travel, relationships, and personal growth. Evan shares how he and his co-founder built the community around their own values, why they reject traditional hustle culture, and how they think about creating a business that provides freedom of time, location, and choice.

Listen in to learn how Art of Mondays builds and protects its community culture through careful member selection, why connection comes before business conversations at their events, and how they created a highly engaging event experience for more than 100 founders. Evan also talks about the marketing strategy behind their growth, content production, and why surrounding yourself with the right people can dramatically change how you approach business and life.
