Our special guest for episode 17 is Jennifer Williams. She’s a Cuddle Clones co-founder who recently exited. Jennifer is currently the VP of Business Development at Dianthus and a Hustler & Tinkerer at Working Title Lab.
Topics we discuss include: the good problem of going viral, moments of pause in entrepreneurship, collaboration is important but can sometimes be limiting, find and utilize your cofounder’s skillset, lean into change and new-ness, research should be your first step into being a founder, have realistic expectations, DETECT model of ideas, failure is not the worst thing; just ‘existing’ is, figure out your long term goals early, and you don't always have to solve an apparent problem.
