Featuring Insights from Carl Grant III
How entrepreneurs can shift from survival mode to meaningful success
For entrepreneurs, it’s easy to fall into the trap of measuring success solely by the numbers: revenue milestones, team size, valuation. What if the most important metric is one we rarely track: fulfillment?
Carl Grant III, a seasoned entrepreneur and capital-raising strategist, believes too many business owners chase external wins while feeling empty inside. In a recent interview, Carl shared a refreshing perspective that redefines abundance not just as profit, but as purpose, peace, and a life well-lived.

"Success isn’t just about the numbers—it’s about living a life of purpose and impact."
The Real Reason You Started
Entrepreneurship is often born from a desire for freedom to own your time, follow your passion, and create impact. But over time, that freedom can morph into relentless pressure. “A lot of entrepreneurs lose sight of why they started,” Carl explains. “They get caught in the grind, trying to scale at all costs.”
Carl’s experience advising founders over the past 25 years has taught him that success without alignment is a recipe for burnout. “If you’re not intentional, your business will start running you. And that’s when things unravel.”
Capital and Calling: A Better Way to Build
Today, Carl leads Capital Raise, a platform that connects high-growth companies with a vetted network of over 5,400 investors. But his work goes far beyond funding.
“What I really do is help entrepreneurs clarify their vision,” he says. “Yes, we talk about capital. But I also ask: What kind of life are you building? Who are you becoming in the process?”
According to Carl, entrepreneurs are most effective when their business strategy is in sync with their personal values. This is about raising your standard for what a meaningful business looks like.
Designing a Life of Abundance
Abundance, as Carl defines it, isn’t just about financial gain. It’s about designing a life that brings joy, peace, and freedom while still growing a thriving company.
Here are a few of Carl’s principles for living abundantly as an entrepreneur:
- Define success beyond the spreadsheet. Know what fulfillment looks like for you both personally and professionally.
- Build a business that supports your life—not one that consumes it.
- Invest in community. Relationships are the real ROI.
- Don’t wait for ‘someday’ to feel whole. Build rhythms of rest, reflection, and renewal into your week now.
Carl’s message is especially relevant for entrepreneurs still striving for their first million in revenue, a season where the temptation to sacrifice everything for growth is strongest. “Start now,” Carl urges. “Don’t wait until the stakes are higher to get clear on what matters most.”
