bootstrapping vs raising venture capital

Çıktı (alıntı)

1. You hit $2M ARR with six people — what would have broken if you'd raised a seed round instead? 2. Build-in-public can attract copycats. What did you choose NOT to share, and why? 3. What's a contrarian belief about funding you held that turned out to be wrong? 4. Walk me through the scariest cash-flow month and the decision that saved you. 5. If a founder DMs you tomorrow asking 'raise or bootstrap?', what's your real answer?

the writing process and unexpected fame

Çıktı (alıntı)

1. You wrote this between hospital shifts — where did the words actually happen? 2. The book went viral on BookTok. Do you remember the moment you realized something had changed? 3. What did fame get wrong about you? 4. Is there a sentence in the book you'd take back now? 5. When did you first allow yourself to say 'I'm a writer' out loud? Each question invites narrative and emotional depth rather than yes/no answers.
