What truly happens when a founder decides to show everything — the wins, the doubts, and the messy middle? In this deeply personal episode, Joanna Trojak, founder of a self-dating app, shares seven powerful lessons from over 100 days of building in public — a journey that began as an experiment in transparency and evolved into a practice of self-awareness, consistency, and authentic connection.This isn’t a story about viral growth or startup hacks. It’s a reflection on what changes when you stop performing success and start showing up truthfully — even when no one’s clapping. Joanna explores:Why consistency builds momentum even when inspiration fadesHow vulnerability connects more than any metric ever couldThe surprising link between founder well-being and product clarityWhy alignment matters more than viralityAnd how your story itself becomes a product of trust and transformationIf you’ve ever struggled with self-doubt, burnout, or the pressure to perform online, this episode will remind you that honesty is the most powerful growth strategy of all.☕ Grab your coffee, settle in, and listen to a founder strip away the filters to reveal what it really takes to build — in public and within yourself.Support the showhttps://app.blissfulheartrenew.com/ https://www.blissfulheartrenew.com/ joannatrojak.com https://www.instagram.com/joannnatrojak/ https://www.instagram.com/heart.renew/
