Seed to Harvest
🎙️ Seed to Harvest | Stories from Technical Storytellers
Welcome to Seed to Harvest, the podcast by Behind Genius Ventures.
We talk to early-stage founders, operators, and investors—people building with code and conviction. Each episode is a chapter in their story: from the messy beginnings to the quiet pivots, from planting ideas to growing companies that matter.
Expect:
🌱 Honest conversations on the earliest chapters of company-building
🧠 Tactical insights from technical minds with narrative soul
✨ Reflections on resilience, rituals, and reinventing what’s possible
This podcast is for the builders who think in frameworks and metaphors. The ones who whiteboard in wild places. The ones writing their own mythologies—one commit, pitch, or poem at a time.
From spark to story.
From seed to harvest. 🌾
Seed to Harvest
six must-read books that transformed my writing style | Seed To Harvest Ep55
Today I am going to be sharing the six books that have really impacted the way that I write. I am the author of the book Seed to Harvest. Seed to Harvest is a children's book about venture capital, which I am really passionate about. I am sharing why I think venture is so unique and interesting with folks who might not come from traditional backgrounds or have a misconception that venture is a bunch of old dudes smoking cigars in a mahogany library.
Seed to Harvest is a podcast focused on stories & tactics from a diverse array of investors, founders, and creators, hosted by Paige Finn Doherty, a founding partner at Behind Genius Ventures and author of Seed to Harvest, an illustrated children's book for adults.
