Biggest struggles: 1) being a female founder is honestly pretty lonely, the tech bubble is still very male dominated. It really frustrates me on a bad day and motivates me on a good day. 2) learning to make tons of tough decisions a day. Valuable resources: learning to listen to my intuition!! Leading with values!!

Thank you for your insight and response! Love that your intuition is a valuable resource ✨ In your opinion, what are some ways we can create more space and opportunity for female founders? Have there been founder communities you've been a part of that were great for women?

Thank you for starting the discussion! 🫶 Good q! tbh the past year I’ve been heads down, growing my team, my agency business, delivering great designs. I didn’t have the energy to physically network & Berlin has a lot of wannabe “founders”. Maybe I should tap more into online communities? Do you have recs?

Congrats on getting the hard work done!! 🔥 For female founder communities specifically, unfortunately no! But /farcasther is a fantastic community here on fc and also if you haven't checked out SheFi or Boys Club or HerDAO, those are all women's organizations :) Boys Club is more for chronically online folks ime
