Her tips really surprised me and I think she has a fresh perspective in this space that all founders need to hear.You are also going to learn:The importance of not being “married to theory” when building something newWhy self-awareness is a founder’s most important (but least talked about) skillHow to test ideas fast, course-correct without ego, and stay open to unexpected opportunities along the way.If you’re actively building or trying to find your way—you’re going to get so much out of this conversation.Listen in—you’ll feel seen, energized, and a little bit braver.Connect with Jennifer:Shoott - @shoottphotos on IG and TiktokLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jennifer-tsay/IG: @jenjentsay
