They don't shy away from regulations, but rather, they lean into them. They recognize that regulations can be changed. And one thing I want to emphasize — they don't solely rely on lawyers and compliance professionals; they dig deep into the source text themselves.

@bfmuir @uprisemoney Thanks so much @bfmuir! ❤️

I get that, as founders, we set sky-high expectations for ourselves. A narrative that is reinforced by VCs and media who prize fast, flashy returns. My takeaways: 1. Courage. Even, and especially, when it feels like stumbling. 2. Let's change this narrative.
