Too many VCs trying to be nice and popular instead of debating entrepreneurs to be as great as they can be. Push them some beyond their limits of comfort to think harder and bigger or surface the bad news earlier and take action early! VCs can add value but most prefer politeness

I'm incredibly proud that Front raised its series D and wrote a few thoughts about it. Not the easiest environment to raise in, but great outcome. Thanks to everyone who's been part of the journey, and welcome @salesforce, @BatteryVentures & @jenntejada 🙂 https://t.co/v0GrCJJEfP
Very exciting news coming from @Circulor1 in our portfolio! This is a space and a company I'm particularly bullish on. The team is laser focused, the need for supply chain transparency is acute and they are well ahead of competition. Keep pushing!
Personal brand = the "promise of the experience" when interacting with you as an investor:

✅What are you known for?
✅What can founders learn from you?

Funding into women's health companies was up 2x in 2021 from 2020. The industry is booming — but it’s also playing catch up after being underserved for FAR too long. https://t.co/NXEzuLJdgH

Board diversity benefits everyone -- management, shareholders, clients and consumers -- while closing the wealth gap. 2021 showed progress, but 2022 needs to demonstrate acceleration. Thanks @mariaaspan for covering such an important topic. https://t.co/FlLbhUQ0Hc
I'm expecting a baby, due next week. Today is my last day at Ada Ventures before 👶
I regularly feel unbelievably grateful to my partner in Ada Ventures, Matt, but today especially so.
He has set me & Ada up for success in taking time away for this next chapter.🙏 @Penhelios
