• A safe space for people to open up about grief and connect with others over a similar grief experience.
• But since grief is so broad and wide like the ocean, we aim to narrow the conversations down to a “pond” at a time. We do this by focusing on a *theme* every month and by inviting experienced guest speakers to lead the conversation. Take a look at our upcoming sessions: https://lu.ma/welcominGrief

• Condensing my 10+ years experience and hiring expertise into a 1 week bootcamp for first time founders on "How to ace your first 10 hires". My aim is to equip founders with the necessary hiring tools and frameworks so that they can grow teams with confidence, saving time and money.
• I’ve often seen first time founders still struggle to hire top talent, simply because they are usually so overworked they rush the process or have no clear hiring plan in place. It is even more challenging now with the Great Resignation, war on tech talent and disparity in VC funding.
• Hiring is not just about “being good with people” - it is about knowing how to attract top talent, who to hire first, building an active network of talent and having a very structured assessment process.
• And this isn't just another online course. I will be bringing together a group of like-minded, founders from a variety of backgrounds, to learn, practice and connect through deep dives and projects. Making it 10x faster than learning on your own and 10x cheaper than hiring a consultant.
