Being a black founder I loved this, I’ve been working on my idea for 4 years now, and I started from scratch and the things I’ve learned about myself & the industry blows my mind. The last thing I want is a handout, the work I’ve put in & years of my life I’ve sacrificed would be worthless/pointless. I know I may have to do more & navigate different but I honestly wouldn’t want it any other way

Hard won experience is rarely the popular narrative
