Fundraising Mindset Office Hours with Kirin Kalia/GTS

​Even if you’ve raised money before or you’re a serial entrepreneur, your mindset -- the way you think about raising money -- has made or is making the process MUCH harder than it needs to be. And you simply don't have time to waste.

Office Hours is your safe space for learning ways to level up your mindset so you can get what you want for your business (investment and everything else) faster.

Each month there's a theme that guides our discussion.

June's theme: WHO is showing up for investor meetings? Ok,it's you (the founder/CEO), but I'm talking about the way you see yourself in those situations, aka your identity. A string of NOs may well shake your confidence and have you questioning yourself...so let's make sure you know how to get back in the zone and stay there.

These live sessions with fellow founders are interactive, eye-opening and inspiring. The more open you are and the more questions you bring, the more value for everyone who shows up.

NOTE: Office Hours discussions are not recorded so that founders can share openly and honestly. Those who RSVP receive a short recap the day after the session.

If you have a question you'd like to submit in advance, email kirin@growthroughstory.com.

See you on June 25!
