Barf & Brag - August 2024
It's hard to be vulnerable while working on a startup.
Building is meaningful, exhilarating, hard, and lonely.
There's not always a great space to share what we are really working through.
👩🏾💻 Not every investor has the space to hear it (and some go so far as to act punitively).
😱 Employees and culture can be thrown off by hearing something not properly filtered.
👩👩👧👧 Significant others and family already carry emotional labor.
Sometimes, we need a space where we don't have to say everything is going "well" (But if it is, then go off!).
An intentional space to just show up and be our authentic, messy selves.
To barf about what sucks right now without worrying about impressions. To brag and celebrate the wins without seeming arrogant or feeling like we are unfocused on solving the problems that still exist.
If you're a founder who could benefit from that space, or know someone who would then this event is for you. Curation will be specifically for founders who have raised any amount of funding (sorry VCs!).
🍵 Tea will be served!
*Recommended Donation: $10 to help cover space + tea expenses, however whatever feels good for you works. I never want money to be a barrier to doing this work 🤎
