That’s also how I know that the “love” my family said they had for me, was never love. It’s control. It’s thinking they have a right to my body, to my soul. It’s believe I owe them obedience forever.They have no idea what love is, and that makes me feel incredibly sad for them. #Estrangement
I never knew I had this much strength in me… until my cats livelihood were threatened. Do you think I’m doing all this for me? I mean, a little, but it’s mostly for them 🥹 and that’s love.
I’m really not that great with written short form content, so I’ve decided to create another substack just to talk about my brands, my vision as a founder and why everything about it is SO different. Right now I’m a bit busy with pitching and other projects but I hope to do that very soon 🤓
my abusers thinking financial collapse will ruin me when they literally abused me psychologically, financially, sexually & physically for DECADES nonstop. i am nothing if not resilient. you ask who i am? i am what you made me. #Survivor #SurvivorStories
And if you dare to go against the machine and lead an ethical business, people will take notice, and the right ones will stand with you. That is how you build loyalty in a way no business is doing nowadays. So no, I am not naive to be following my values or my ethics. It's actually quite visionary.
I have the belief that you can still make a lot a money while preserving your humanity and ethics. How? Well, it pays off to be kind. Because in 2025 people are sick of companies putting profit above their workers, above the environment, above everything. #FounderLife
One of my biggest disappointments in the corporate world is how most companies are soulless. They are just about profit. They don't care about anyone or anything else. And I am not naive. I understand that scaling is important, that profiting is important. But I vowed never to be like them.
But the thing about The 11th Edit is that we do things differently. Personally, one of my biggest priorities is being aligned with my values, and as a founder is no different. That's why in the company we only work with brands, creators, and artists who are aligned with us, ethically. #FounderLife
Today didn’t go how I wanted. But I’m still here. Still trying. Still building a life I can stand in without flinching… And that has to be enough for tonight 😮💨 #FounderLife #CreativeVision #BuildInSilence
Yes, I’m in survival mode. Yes, I’m exhausted. Yes, I’m scared. But at the same time, I’m creating such amazing things.. I can’t help but feel excited, even though I’m facing eviction and collapse. The duality of being a survivor and a founder is insane 😮💨
#EthicalTech #FounderLife
If we were in the 80/90s people would claim they were “possessed”, lol. But yeah, that doesn’t shock me, even the more aesthetic corporations are all about profits. It takes guts to lead an ethical business
My new era is going to be ICONIC. You just wait 🤫
I wish I were writing. Or creating. Or literally building anything. Having to spend my days on survival-mode, pitching and applying to jobs non-stop is exhausting. I wish I was writing (and reading). #WritingCommunity
DMs are open. My pitch deck is on my pinned tweet.
Let’s build the future that cruel people can’t imagine.
#BuildTheFuture #SupportCreators #Founders #InvestmentOpportunity
If you’re reading this and you’re aligned, I’m looking for support. Not charity. Not saviorism.
Support that honors the value of what I’m building. Support that sees survivors as future-makers.
#EthicalDesign #BuildTheFuture #AltTech
But I’m not stopping.
I’m pitching ethical investors. I’m selling my services. I’m building every day, and protecting my cats, story, brands and vision at the same time.
#MutualAid #BuildInPublic #Founders
If I were a clean-cut white guy with a hoodie and an empty pitch deck, they’d be calling me a founder.
Instead I’m called delusional. Because I have scars, because I want more than just profit, because I still care about ethics.
#Feminism #EthicalDesign #SurvivorVoices
This is what it’s like to be a brilliant, visionary survivor in a world that only values “resilience” when it’s quiet and profitable.
Say too much, dream too big, and suddenly you’re “crazy.” Especially if you’re a woman.
#Feminism #SystemicResistance #AltTech
I’m building:
– A trauma-informed productivity & lifestyle brand
– A literary archive of survival and transformation
– An AI product designed to offer regulated, ethical emotional support
…while still being unfunded, endangered, and unheard.
#EthicalTech #AiForGood #Founders
But let me be clear. I’m not here because I didn’t try hard enough. I’m here because I survived things most people couldn’t imagine. And I kept building anyway.
#TraumaInformed #MutualAid #AltTech
And they responded by:
– Accusing me of delusion
– Suggesting I was on substances
– Saying my memoir wouldn’t matter
– Dismissing my entire business as fantasy
– Telling me to “just get a job at Target”
#EthicalDesign #BuildInPublic #BooksNotBillionaires
I didn’t ask for pity. I didn’t apologize. I didn’t made myself smaller to occupy a space that’s predominantly masculine.
I asked for support with integrity, and told the truth about my vision, what I’m building and the abuse I went through.
#AltTech #SurvivorVoices #SystemicResistance
I said I’m a survivor rebuilding from scratch. That I’m working nonstop: pitching investors, offering freelance services, applying for jobs, trying everything I can.
That I have a vision, and parts of it already exist.
#MutualAid #TraumaInformed #Founders #EthicalDesign
🧵 Today I posted on a Reddit entrepreneurial subreddit asking for support, and was told I was delusional, on drugs, and should just give up.
Here’s what I actually said. Here’s what I’m really building.
Exactly!! It’s actually rooted in eurocentric views and ignorance.
I made a pitch deck with the full story, why this matters, and what do you get out of it by investing now. Here: bit.ly/4osKXxH
#FundTheFuture #SurvivalStory #EthicalTech
I’m not asking for charity.
I’m asking for believers.
For readers who see what I’m building.
For quiet angels with loud wallets.
For the kind of patrons history forgets, but revolutions never do.
#BuildDifferently #NewEconomy #FundTheFuture #SoftResistance
If you wait for me to “make it” to support me, you’re already too late.
Everything I’ve made, I made while fighting for survival.
And right now, I need urgent support to stay housed, fed, and online while I finish the next phase.
#FromTheAshes #StillStanding #MutualAid #SurvivalStory
I call it pre-investment investment.
I’m not raising capital for logos.
I’m raising capital for liberation.
The kind that builds safehouses.
That funds lawsuits.
That protects creators like me until the world is ready to hear us.
#NothingToHide #InvestInArtists #IndieMedia #IndieVoices #Risen
What I’m building is not a brand. It’s a rebellion.
A multi-pronged initiative:
- A literary body of work
- A trauma-informed productivity company
- A revolutionary AI concept rooted in ethics
