How was Egypt?

Jess Sato's Initial Reflections from the Built to Last Egypt Retreat: Tourism, Egyptian Women, and Business Legacy

Jess Sato shares initial reflections after returning from the Built to Last Egypt Retreat.

She describes the experience through three themes: tourism and culture, relationships with Egyptian women entrepreneurs, and expanded perspective on business and legacy.

Highlights include witnessing participants’ awe at ancient sites like the pyramids and temples, experiencing daily life from Cairo to villages along the Nile, and building cultural understanding through face-to-face connection and observations of religious coexistence.

She recounts deep conversations with Egyptian founders about shared challenges—funding, markets, community, sustainable growth, AI, marketing, and visibility—and notes ongoing plans to continue collaboration.

Jess explains how the retreat created space for masterminding and reflection, previews more episodes unpacking the trip, and invites listeners to join the 2027 waitlist.
