Any friendly entrepreneurship communities that aren't rotten with the whole "grindset," hustle culture stuff?

I've always been interested in entrepreneurship, and I think I want to get serious about doing something. I checked out the Millionaire Fastlane forums, and it's just completely saturated with the whole "grindset" BS. I tried reading a couple of threads, and my eyes almost rolled out of my head. š
I've also hung around on the entrepreneur subreddit, and it just seems like a bunch of people without much experience trading unproven advice and people trying to sell courses.
Does anyone know of a better community? I'd like to find some friendly, welcoming adults with actual experience to talk with. Are entrepreneurship and hustle culture always a package deal?

Im part of the EPMO of a healthcare system. We just got licenses and an intro to co-pilot for teams, word, excel , PowerPoint.
I swear this AI will tell you all the questions asked during a meeting. If you join a meeting late you can ask it to recap the meeting thus far. Did you get a sales presentation from a vendor you need to recap and present to stakeholders. Ask co pilot to create a pdf from the documentation the vendor provided.
AI is making my job so much easier but at the same time I kinda feel like Iām training my replacement.
Are you using AI at your job, how are you using it and how do you feel about it use in the workplace and if it will one day replace you?

Backstory: Seemingly randomly, I was contacted by a company that saw a comment I made online about a previous area of expertise that they want to venture into and have asked if I'd like to be a consultant to them.
I've never been a consultant, dealt with them directly, or have any idea what would be expected of me as one. Looking up consultants and consultancies and what they do has provided zero insight as they seem to be purposefully vague or overly broad.
Starter questions (I realize they're vague and I'll have follow up questions as I get a handle on this):
- If you are or have been a consultant, were you independent or part of a firm?
- What do you actually do?
- What did/do you charge for your consultancy services?

I've seen a few posts on Tildes now about careers - sometimes personal posts about burnout and how to manage it, other times links to articles about layoffs.
The end result of both of these is often a need to find a new job. For some it may be as simple as applying for the same title at a different company and having success, for others it may be a long process of determining what type of career to go for next and perhaps education or other factors that can help them get there.
I wanted to try starting a thread to see if those of us who are struggling can ask for advice, and perhaps those who are doing well can help or even post their career journey to show how they got where they are today.

Hi all,
I don't know where to turn on this. I work in a small company, my boss who is an amazing person and has given me so much and helped me really kick start my career has had some accusations over the past little while. But now I've heard a few stories that really show that he's done some shady stuff. My boss has been like a brother to me and is a close friend. I have no idea how to digest this and I have no idea who I could talk to, so I'm just posting here.I don't want to lose a friend, he's been nothing but amazing to me.
Edit: thank you everyone. I'll keep reading the comments. I just need to reflect on this and I appreciate your discussions.
Edit 2: There is proof enough to not deny things, inappropriate and agressive advances and groping stuff. Nothing good.

This isnāt intended to be a ranting thread on millennials or such. But Iām rather genuinely curious what is considered ānormalā in terms of work ethic and work attitudes.
