There is someone impersonating me and messaging founders offering to invest in their companies. This is not me. If you’ve received messages from the username below, please ignore. And if you’re willing to help, please report @markphillipsvc to @X. Thank you 🙏🏼

And spoiler alert - the world (and my business) keep spinning. If you're an entrepreneur, recognize that you have a choice. And speaking from experience, I hope you'll choose to slow down.

I wrestle with this choice every day. There is a seemingly hardwired drive within me that wants to move faster, work harder, and accomplish more. But as I have fought to pause and enjoy the journey, moments like this have become all the sweeter.

Or you can choose to slow down. To enjoy the journey. To recognize the human - whether that's a newborn in your arms, a colleague at work, or a stranger along the way. Those relationships are what give life meaning.

You can choose to miss these moments. To be asleep at the wheel. To convince yourself you'll make it up to them when you hit the next milestone, the next funding round, or once you exit the business. But this moment doesn't happen twice.

Welcoming a newborn is a stark reminder of this truth. Your entire world turns upside down, and yet the outside world continues to spin. Sleepless nights can lead to unproductive days and a downward spiral starts to form. But here's the thing: this truth creates a choice.

The building blocks of what we call a Founder Outcome. There is nothing new under the sun. What you are doing has been done, and it will be done again. But the journey - the process of growing and gaining wisdom - that is the true gift.

@Mike_kim714 Michael - we need more podcasts that explore the valleys of careers. The hard parts that truly shape our lives. It’s called Masters of Resilience. Would love to have you as a guest.

I am an avid podcast listener (BS, Russillo, PMT, Huberman) and I’ve always hated when guests have crappy audio and I’ve heard complaints of my audio being bad when I’ve been a guest… So I bought a real mic on Amazon 😂 Now I want to use it. Is there a podcast that wants me on?

The last several months have been anything but normal for anyone starting, building, or funding early-stage companies. But as we all know, when things don't go well, then there's a story to tell. Venture has to evolve. My thoughts on the topic below. open.substack.com/pub/markphilli…

But like I said, I need your help! We believe this is an incredibly opportunity, and it’s blowing up over on LinkedIn, but our reach on Twitter is not as strong. Will you like, comment, and RT to help spread the word?

Ok Twitter. I need your help. We have BIG NEWS at @11TribesVC. We’re announcing the launch of our second fund. And I need your help to spread the word. Why? Because we’re raising publicly. Which means YOU can invest! Let me tell you more…

With a set of investors like this, Season 10 of the pitch is bound to be the best one yet 🔥 Typically, investing is a individual sport, but it was a ton of fun to meet the founders and unpack each deal alongside @NealBloom @dunkhippo33 @paigefinnn and @chudson Look out for new episodes of @thepitchshow in the fall!
