Raising funds pt. 1
01/03/24 • 40 min
Numerous global research tells us that female founders only get about 2% of VC money. While experts are trying to figure out why, well, every female founder can tell you why. Shame that nobody is really asking us.
While I don't want to be negative, I also don't want to sugarcoat something that I see as a plague for female entrepreneurs. In this episode, I will talk about
- why female entrepreneurs don't get funded
- my own experiences raising money
- facing unsavory questions
- how to stay positive when facing bias and prejudice
This is such an important and big topic and it will be covered in two-part, so watch this space for the next episode, coming in two weeks!

Episode 8: Balancing entrepreneurship
We hear so much about how entrepreneurship takes time, that you must be committed to your company 24/7. That hustle culture is the standard and a necessity to be even remotely successful.
I fell into the trap of #grindset myself. Even if I'm geographically far from Silicon Valley, toxic working culture and even more toxic advice traveled wide and far. Luckily, I learned my lessons and now, I'm sharing them with you. In this episode, you can hear more about
- how much time it really takes to run a startup
- is there any truth in rise-and-grind culture?
- how startup work is different from corporate life
- my journey from overworking to putting myself first
- tips on creating more balanced and healthier work
If you are looking for a more sustainable and human-centric journey to success, this episode is a "must-listen" for you.
