S3 Episode 12 - How to Sit in the Discomfort

Kim and Wesley speak with WeAreLATech founder and podcaster Espree Devora about her experience as young tech founder.  Espree talks about how her early passion for technology, art and business and how this set the foundation for her future endeavors.  While she did not know or even understand the traditional rules of how to start a business or how to raise funds, she did not let that deter her drive to succeed.  She let her strong, creative vision be her North Star and guide her day to day decisions making.  She also discusses how to manage energy as a founder, especially when one can feel they are never doing enough.  It's important, though difficult, to "sit in the discomfort" and "don't close our own doors of opportunity".
