Interview with The Little Potato Company CEO, Angela Santiago

Some com­pa­nies grow because they chase oppor­tu­ni­ty. Oth­ers grow because they stay relent­less­ly true to who they are.

In this wide-rang­ing con­ver­sa­tion, Kevin sits down with Angela San­ti­a­go, Co-Founder and CEO of The Lit­tle Pota­to Com­pa­ny, to unpack the real sto­ry behind build­ing a val­ues-dri­ven orga­ni­za­tion that has scaled from a bath­tub start­up to a North Amer­i­can food com­pa­ny pro­duc­ing tens of mil­lions of pounds annually.

Togeth­er, they explore what it actu­al­ly takes to sus­tain long-term growth: curios­i­ty over cer­tain­ty, pur­pose before scale, sur­round­ing your­self with peo­ple who have been where you’re going, and hav­ing the courage to ask for help. Angela shares can­did insights on lead­er­ship, resilience, advi­so­ry boards, per­son­al growth, and the inner work required to build some­thing endur­ing — with­out los­ing your­self in the process.

This is an hon­est, thought­ful con­ver­sa­tion about build­ing a busi­ness, rais­ing a fam­i­ly, learn­ing through hard moments, and stay­ing ground­ed in your val­ues while play­ing a very long game.
