Founders

Folks who have left their fulltime jobs to become fulltime founders, why and how?

🕯️They/them. Scaled cos from 0-$300k in arr, 7-35 employees, 0-100k users. Now I make beautiful, functional, and ethically made candles at humankind.place

I didn't choose to become a founder, but nobody wanted to solve the problems that I wanted to. So, I had to take control.

A few months later, I realized why no one was solving those problems. Because there was no money!! 

But eventually, I found a few problems where I can strike a balance.
