💜 Discounts on software I recommend: @Builtfirst I remember when BuiltFirst was just an idea on a piece of paper. It’s incredible what they have built for all founders, but especially proud of how they have built systems to particularly help underserved founders.

Female-founder resources ✨ Pitchbook found that all-female-led teams garnered only 2% of US VC capital in 2022. I’m disappointed, but not surprised. I helped to compile female founder resources for @500GlobalVC's network a while back, & these are the ones I recommend. ⤵️
