This week on scalr sagecast, I'm joined by Megan Luttrell, Founder of Kairos Recruitment and the driving force behind the Aussie Founders Club (AFC). Megan has carved out a niche in the startup ecosystem, helping founders make sense of the often chaotic world of recruitment, with clarity, focus and a real understanding of the pressures they face.

With over a decade in IT recruitment, Megan’s journey hasn’t been linear. From launching her own ventures to building communities that support founders at every stage, she continues to play a huge role in reshaping how startups think about hiring, growth and sustainability.

In this episode, we dive into:

• Megan’s move from traditional recruitment to startup-focused solutions
• The story behind the Aussie Founders Club and the impact it's having
• How to build scalable hiring strategies that actually prioritise founder well-being
• Why community is the real secret weapon in the entrepreneurial journey

Megan’s insights are a reminder that success in the startup world isn’t just about hustling harder—it’s about building smarter, surrounding yourself with good people, and keeping your feet on the ground while aiming high.
