Not every lesson needs to come from a Ted talk. I learned more about resilience watching my grandmother run her fabric stall in Alaba market than from any podcast.

Five years of building taught me more about human psychology than any MBA ever could. People don't buy products — they buy the version of themselves they become when they use it.

Unpopular opinion: the reason most African startups struggle isn't funding or talent — it's product market fit we convince ourselves we've found too early. Take the harder road.
