I started @thevcpreneur_ #podcast exactly 2 years ago today, as a means to learn from the #best in the #startup ecosystem…

and it continues to be one of the most rewarding experiences I have had so far.

Founders are busy re-structuring their operating plans to reduce burn.

A reduction in burn almost always slows growth which #VCs will interpret as a negative signal.

The result is confusion and loads of bad advice.

Is this a solvable problem? 🧵👇

[Sajith Pai @sajithpai]

I spoke to Anshuman Bapna @bapnaa now running @terradotdo about his thoughts on PMF, the mistakes he made on Mygola, his learnings since and his advice for founders. Transcript below + some screengrabs.
