👏 BRAVO Natalie! The glow up as a person and founder is apparent - you exude more confidence and conviction about who you are, your passions, your faith - and it is uplifting! Thank you for sharing and being vulnerable- such a delight to see you doing well! So easy to have imposter syndrome - but you my dear - you are Rella’s greatest marketing asset. I’m now a Product Manager at a healthtech startup and when sales moved into the hands of the founders - the pipeline started ramping up - there’s just something about that connection to the mission and vision that’s seldomly replaceable. Wishing you much continued success!
Okay one tip if you ever try it - I travel a lot for work and I have to wear work clothes to the airport and on the flight a lot if I'm rushed and TSA, flight attendants, etc are way nicer to me when I'm still in work clothes vs when I change into casual clothes! Sometimes I'll even just wait until after security to change into comfy clothes bc you get treated totally different!
I met my now fiance on hinge, but we knew who each other was through mutual friends/being grad students in the same program. I hope this one works out for you ❤
