Lea and Verena had the honor of speaking together at Bits & Pretzels two hours before Michelle Obama took the same stage. They shared their experiences as founders and gave deep insights and advice for people thinking about becoming a founder themselves. In this special podcast, you'll be told their top five lessons learned of being founders.

In 30 packed minutes, they explain why a good idea is often not enough, what to look for when choosing an industry and why you should build your network in times when you don't need it. Why we all need to appreciate broken processes more and try not to “sterb in Schönheit”? Why clarity is more important than make-up in pitches? What matters most in teamwork and why equality and shares make such a big difference.

Lea and Verena also tell you about the initial questions you need to ask yourself when it comes to founding, such as what are you great at and what does the world need? They also explain how entrepreneurship is all about priorities and passion, having fun, failing fast, truth and trust.
