deck deck deck - am I even doing this right?

From the founder

There's a specific kind of doubt that hits when you open a blank slide and think: do I actually know what I'm doing?

Not imposter syndrome in the cliche sense. More like... I've read all the frameworks, watched all the YC talks, studied the decks that raised millions. And then I sit down to write mine and it still feels wrong.

The problem isn't information. There's too much of it. Everyone has an opinion on what slide comes first, how long it should be, whether to lead with the problem or the traction or the team.

At some point you have to just make a decision and live with it.

Still figuring it out. But I think the version I'm working on now is the most honest one I've made. Less trying to say what I think investors want to hear. More just: here's what we built, here's what happened, here's where we're going.

Sometimes I don't what the hell I'm doing.
