It took me years of coffee chats, cold pitches, and Zoom fatigue to realise — it was never about the deal. It was always about the bond. Over the past few years, I’ve spoken to 1000+ founders, VCs, partners — chasing outcomes. But the real unlock? When I stopped pushing for ROI and started focusing on real relationships. Because when someone feels heard and seen, outcomes flow — no pitch needed. You know what made it real for me? Pickleball. What started as a fun sport became my quiet superpower. I’ve met unicorn founders and early-stage rebels, not at lavish dinners — but over a sweaty rally, shared laughs, and coconut water. No decks. No suits. Just trust. Term sheets have followed. So have friendships. Startups don’t run on capital alone — they run on connection. And sometimes? That connection starts with a missed shot and a chai. If you’re building something real — let’s talk. Maybe even play.
