Oooooh this has really given me something to think about. I definitely get hung up on finding the "best" idea.

Yep, same here. It's our ego that wants us to have the BEST idea, the BEST project, the BEST (fill the gap).

Sometimes that bad, crazy idea is just what we need ;)

Thank you, Jennie!

Thank you, Sarah, I find them really inspiring, especially because we often have the impression that successful people have everything figured out from the beginning. They don't: they figure it along the way.

I love random founder stories because it's so relatable. We don't always know where we'll end up but we keep going in a way that sustains and excites us!

It is 100% relatable.

If I'm honest, everything I have achieved started as something very different that evolved and took a new shape and direction - including my Substack!

Cheers, Sabrina!
