Based on how time is being spent that sounds an awful lot like an EM role to me?
Like EM responsibilities minus actual humans reporting to you?
You could save time by simply reading and distilling this blog post: https://www.ricklindquist.com/notes/the-first-90-days

30 pitches at 5.13a.
That is very very difficult.
Keep in mind:
1. Very few climbers can even climb one pitch of 5.13 (maybe top 1%)
2. Even fewer could attempt 30 pitches of 5.13 over several days.
3. Like maybe only dozens in the world could attempt 30 pitches of 5.13 in single day
4. Only 1 person ever in history that has attempted that without a rope.
Not always at medium-big startups. It is fixed depending on the position.
I have worked at like 6 different companies now from 20-1400 people. Smaller companies definitely have some flexibility but its usually a cash vs equity conversation.
This was following years of taking 5HTP, meditating/breathing, talk therapy etc, which helped somewhat but nothing like intense exercise.
Michigan is great in a lot of ways, depending on your interests.
I am not sure your comment is accurate, the effects and benefits are definitely not anecdotal.

I have 18 meetings a week.
I try my hardest to stack them all onto Mon and Wed, leaving the other 3 days as meeting free as possible.
Its a busy schedule for my wife, granted we have 3 kids. She also works part-time at their nature camp
> Are you encouraging your kids to go to college?
Depends. I plan on enrolling them at the local community college by age 14-15.
> And if they did want to go to college do they realistically have the option to pick the school they want?
I want them to attend community college then transfer, which is what I did and I transfered to a public ivy school
> Any state or country requirements you need to adhere to in terms of curriculum?
No requirements here in MI, depends on your state.
> Have your kids ever expressed an interest in going to school?
Nope.
> I can see homeschooling work well for disciplines like math or programming but have any of your kids expressed interest in something like medicine or law where prestige matters a lot?
Why would that matter? Top tier colleges are looking for/encouraging homeschool applicants because they are generally very independent thinkers and self-directed.
> Are kids really self motivated to learn anything?
Definitely. For example, my one daughter loves birds and is studying everything she can find about the local bird population. Kids are naturally very curious.
> How much structure do you impose?
This depends on the homeschooling family. We have a decent structure now but other families use no structure.
> Do you find that they do more projects and experiments as opposed to reading theoretical stuff?
50/50 I would say. They are still young so the reading is not like deep theory on anything yet.
"Travel to Paris"
"Viking Art and History"
"Waldorf Form drawing"
"The History of Halloween"
They also get to see the instructor and interact with them and other kids.
