1/ Let's talk about fundraising: In 2009, Y Combinator only gave us $15K, half our YC batch died after demo day, 11 firms told us no, 2 firms wanted to find us a CEO, 1 VC told me, point blank, we would fail, we were a week away from death but luckily raised $500K @ 2M pre.

No, we don't show tweets shared by DMs. Those are tweets that are retweeted with comments. The text is confusing though. Will pass the feedback on. Thanks Trier!

If my mom finds the photo it's going up on the internets for sure! We didn't have digital cameras back then so it's probably buried in a show box somewhere.

3. The incredible support and mentorship provided by managers and leaders across the company => feedback and course corrections as you go

2. The fact that it isn't always smooth sailing => you get your reps in on all kinds of difficult managing situations

1. How small we are as a company relative to the size of our impact => hard problems, lots of leverage
