creating a space for vulnerability

You come back into my office, I'm like blasting house music, I'm doing my emails, I'm writing, taking founder calls. The— like, it's set up like an extended living room. I want people to come out and like hang and tell me about what's hard, you know, and, and like have that really raw experience with me. And I actually— which brings me to the next update that I wanted to share is I Completed an anonymous founder survey across our portfolio, which was really cool. I think there was only like three founders out of sixteen that have responded so far that didn't recommend me as a ten as an early stage partner, which is pretty cool. And I really loved reading the responses to what made me stand out from their other investors. And across the board, it was that their conversations with me feel like they can be more open and honest and talk about you know things and get vulnerable.
