Mahesh Kumar — Co-Founder
For the last 17 years, I’ve started companies across health, real estate, and food (see below). And honestly? The years post-COVID 2021-2024 have been brutally tough for growth and cash flow. I’ve had to put in a lot of my own money to make sure the businesses survive (they did). But the cost was heavy: Constant stress. No life outside work. Lost hair. Bad health. Shaky personal lives. For a long time, I thought that was the “price of success”. I DON'T choose to believe that anymore. I think 1 person + smart AI-powered systems is the perfect builder’s storm. My idea of a perfect week: 75% building ideas + content 25% meeting other builders to learn + teach I call this VIBE BUILDING: One person + AI systems can build something real… while living healthy, travelling the world, enjoying all facets of life, have time for family, and NOT LIVE in a constant state of stress. So I’m on a mission: My next goal is to hit €100K/month of my own billing through a portfolio of cash-flow generating ventures that have a strong mission; while sharing my lessons with radical transparency in my newsletter. Where am I today?
