“Your community is your moat when building a generational product”
Background & Highlights
New here? The 15-min "Pick My Brain" is for ONE pressing question - fast, direct, and actionable :) — Here's what I've learned building companies, communities, and a following: the founders who win aren't the loudest - they're the ones people want to gather around. I hit rock bottom in 2018 — autoimmune disease, mental health struggles, injury, and walking away from my own startup. What pulled me back wasn't a growth hack. It was people. The right rooms, the right conversations, the right story to tell myself about who I was becoming. So I rebuilt around that — and it's now what I do for a living. Today I'm Head of Community at Hubble, where I connect early-stage founders with the operators and investors who've already solved what they're stuck on. I curate high-touch events from the French Riviera to London's landmark venues, and I write "the locker room" to 13.5k+ founders. The throughline in all of it: community and story are the real moat. Product gets copied. A community that believes in you doesn't. I coach founders on the two things most of them under-invest in — how to build a community that sells for you, and how to tell a story (in content and in person) that makes people lean in. And because I'm an organisational psychologist and ex-athlete, we do it in a way that builds you up instead of burning you out. Book a session for: ✔ Building community that sells your product (not just a Slack that goes quiet) ✔ Building a personal brand & content engine on LinkedIn ✔ Storytelling & narrative — for your brand, your raise, and your reputation ✔ Networking & real connection that don't give you the ick ✔ Founder mental fitness, resilience & identity as you grow It doesn't matter if you're pre-launch, mid-scale, or already exited. If you want to be the founder people gather around — and actually enjoy the building — this is your call. At the end of the day, it's you against the old version of you. Book a call. Let's get into the weeds. :)
