Nicole Spiegel-Gotsch is the CEO and founder of HelloMavyn®, a startup advisor and business coaching platform to help female founders succeed at building, launching and growing their companies and challenging prevailing stereotypes and misconceptions about female business leaders.

🔑Key Takeaways🔑

👩‍🔬 🤟 Challenging Myths and Biases: Forget the notion that women are risk-averse or lack confidence. Learn why what is often perceived as risk aversion is actually wisdom — a more calculated approach to entrepreneurial challenges.

💵 🌱 Navigating the Funding Landscape: The venture capital scene remains a tough terrain for women, with less than 2% of VC funding going to female-led startups. Learn how to counteract unconscious bias, change the power dynamics, and show investors why women consistently deliver higher returns on investment.

💡 🚀 Overcoming Internal and External Barriers: How to build confidence and resilience in the face of scrutiny and rejection.

🔥 📈 Embracing Transition and Growth: How the role of founders evolves as their business scales, why founders have a tough time letting go of handling “everything”, the importance of trusting your team, and why it’s vital to face new challenges head-on, diversify revenue streams, and focus on mission.
