from Tomorrow's Bites with Andrés and Sjacco · host Andrés and Sjacco
"If you don’t sell, the mission dies."It’s a sentence most impact-driven founders avoid saying out loud, but year two has a way of forcing honesty.In this Build in Public episode of Tomorrow’s Bites, we sit down again with Andres Jara, co-founder of Favamole, to unpack the unfiltered reality of building a food startup beyond the hype of year one. The vision is still alive. The mission still matters. But this time, the focus is clear: sales, structure, and survival.We talk about what really changes after you’ve “made it through” the first year. Why delegating feels lighter than holding on. Why foundations matter more than visibility. And why many purpose-driven startups fail not because the idea is wrong, but because cash flow is ignored for too long.This is a conversation about:The uncomfortable shift from storytelling to sellingLetting go of control before you become the bottleneckWhy impact without revenue is just intentionHow year two separates belief from executionNo pitch decks. No polished lessons. Just the real trade-offs founders face when idealism meets reality.🎧 If you’re building something that’s meant to last, this episode will feel uncomfortably familiar, and deeply necessary.🙏 LEAVE A REVIEW If you like our podcast please leave us a review on your favourite platform – even one sentence helps!
