Dear First name / beautiful warrior


The past months with @foundhers.vc have been transformative—full of growth, learning, and purpose-driven work. We dreamed big, showed up and did the work - KOFA AI made it to our investors. I wanted to quit many times (My incredible team wouldn't let me), even though I knew it was not an option. 
 
The most important lesson I've learned when it comes to dreaming big - is to get to know your fear archetype. Similar to the inner critic, fear is only focused on it’s job - to keep you safe by sticking to what you know.

Keep dreaming big by managing your relationship with fear.
 
The journey to pitching #KOFAAI - after @porterairlines cancelled our flights while we were on the airport didn’t start off smoothly.

It’s been a bumpy road - one the @foundhers.vc worked incredibly hard to solve - to get us all to NYC that night but couldn’t rebook us all at this last moment’s notice.

The journey to #dreamingbig isn’t always smooth and cannot be done without community and I’m so grateful to dream big with all of you.

After 10+ hours of running between Pearson and Billy Bishop Airport, Fellow Founders Anita @hellohair_book and Amanda @itsamandatory and I ended up staying downtown at the Magical House thanks to my family @belezayoga and @carlcassell - so grateful for you both 😘💛

Carl and Ana have been so instrumental in helping me birth my biggest dreams from creating space for fellow @sistertalkgroups members dreams to flourish, to partnering on SisterTalk Group and Corporate Retreats to supporting my creative sabbaticals as I dream bigger into my purpose. 🌺💛

It takes a village and a practice of sisterhood to dream big y’all!

Here’s a snippet of our conversation- thanks to Anita who pulled out her camera after saying “We need to capture this” in spite of how tired we were.

Hope this inspires you to keep dreaming big, with community and in sisterhood as a practice. More to come on how we can keep #DreamingBiggerTogether
