Hey, did you hear the good news? You don’t need a Co-Founder to build your company. There is a lot of talk in every startup community about Co-Founder being a requirement to get up and going. Bullshit. Oh, VC’s won’t invest in you if you’re doing it alone? You don’t need a VC to get started either.

I’ve been thinking a lot about how my experience as a female tech founder differs from my male counterparts. Almost a month into my first tech incubator, I’m learning a lot - but I’m also seeing my weaknesses brought into sharp focus.
