Months worth of inspiration 🤯
I didn’t know what to expect going in, but a month out, I can’t stop thinking about it.
Upgraded my @zapier plan last week and am already almost halfway through 🥲🥲🥲
Whewwww the stress the Netflix team must be feeling right now?! #LoveIsBlind
Definitely one of the most taxing things about bootstrapping! 🥵
Replying to @TemiRansomeKuti
I would say the stress of taking personal risk.
Every dollar I put into the startup is a dollar that could go to my family or other places.
I'm confident that it'll pay off in the long term, but the short term risk is sometimes scary, especially when it's your own funds.
The monthly cost of running Sistren has increased by almost 4x thanks to @glideapps new pricing structure🫠
I’m still yet to receive any funding in the form of grants, prizewinnings etc. so I’m having to shoulder the cost🥲

The owners of Tinder and Hinge have just sued us @muzz_app for the THIRD time. We're a small startup. They're a multi billion dollar conglomerate.
@FTC it's time the near monopoly Match Group have and their behaviour is looked into

Touch grass and take time for yourself.
Personal health is crucial for longevity in this space.

Friends are good for your health.
In case you thought that wasn’t a major concern because you’re an alpha-sigma-giga-lone-chad-wolf who don’t need no one around them…
“By far the biggest medical surprise of the past decade has been the extraordinary number of studies showing that the single biggest predictor of your psychological and physical health and wellbeing is simply the number and quality of close friendships you have.
By comparison, all the traditional factors that your doctor usually worries about on your behalf make only modest contributions.”
— Robin Dunbar
Joined #glidewriters to share my experiences of using no-code as a solopreneur to build a new friendship app for Black women 🫶🏾

My inbox looks like a Newsletter cemetery.
Request for a startup:
Can someone build a startup with an alternative to newsletters?
Am I the only one accumulating newsletter subscriptions like if they were domains?
Managed to squeeze in a Butt Dial during a comfort break on a Zoom call - great use of my 5 mins @callinganyone 😏😎
Current obsession: @callinganyone
Just had a chat with a Philatelist (stamp collector) and now I’m watching a YouTube video about Black Women on US postal stamps ✨
Had such a nice chat with one of @yoursistren members 🥹
I’m lucky to have met some genuinely lovely Black women through the various user research calls + coffees I’ve had over the past few months.
Even when things feel a bit hopeless, a single chat can really restore my faith
