🙏Sometimes we go solo because the other option is never starting.

That’s why I am building founder social club. It’s a community for founders to eliminate loneliness on the journey and connect people with mentors, investors, and peer groups.

Would love your thoughts on picking a cofounder - friends feel like the wrong move, and people you don’t know super well seem like a risk?

This resonates. I tried two- 1st 1 failed to acclimate to the VC word. He was the “sign an NDA else no meeting” type 🤦🏻♂️. The 2nd lied about his skills. 🤷🏻♂️thank God I have that combo😭🔥

Do you (or do you see a lot of other VCs) consider it a red flag when there’s a very uneven equity split (80/20) between cofounders because one founded the company and the other joined post launch?

Where would you suggest to look for various mentors for co-founders and the early execs?

I have a rockstar CTO in mind for when I raise but they won’t join at this stage as well as a lot of exited founders as mentors - should I added them my deck ?

Love this. Solo isn’t a red flag by default, but the bar for support systems and hiring fast is definitely higher.

It's very lonely for startup founder, period. Let alone doing it solo.

Why does it matter actually? Solo or with a co-founder? If it works, it works. Some people can’t do it alone, some do it better alone. Why do people limit their thinking?
