🙌 Looking forward to working with this bunch.
Prioritize intention over attention, consciousness over complacency, and competence over confidence.
Shiny object syndrome really does exists everywhere, in every industry and sector. Let's not overlook or underestimate what we have access to, in other words the insights and data we are privy to re: customers' current and evolving needs, frustrations, and behaviours.

This was wonderful to be a part of. My cancer journey completely transformed my relationship and understanding of life and how move through it - including the way I lead, communicate, and innovate. Thanks for having me, @yacancercanada

On customer development/talking to customers - specifically, getting out of the building. ^ Often, the building that founders tend to have most difficulty with is the one that are our own heads.
Today’s tweet thread is about customer personas @HustleFundVC. I’ll give you a qualitative look at some of our early findings under the hood across 300+ portfolio companies at Hustle Fund. Read on >>

How much time should you spend on an early stage financial model? ✨3-10 HRS MAX✨ I met with a founder who said they created a complex model (over many months) and they'd need time to update it before sharing. This level of rigor in early financial modeling isn't needed.
Start of year prompt(s): We are midway in to week one of the new year. Have we - started - nourishing the themes we want for ourselves for 2022?

One of the most crucial aspects of community development is allowing space for personal and collective accountability.
It addressed something they took accountability for: valuing and recognizing the time I spent with them. I am grateful being recognized as a human and not a transactional agent, something that isn't necessarily a given.
@lolitataub Not a direct answer, but founders should also ask for deferred payment - where you ask to pay upon first fundraise. Most larger legal firms can do this - but you also have to convince them that you’re promising enough to do this for.
