Harsh truth: surviving trauma doesn't make you a founder.
People survive horrible shit every day and never build anything.
The difference? Using that pain as rocket fuel.
Trauma alone = victim mentality
Trauma + Execution = unstoppable force
Your backstory doesn't matter if you can't ship. The market doesn't care about your struggle—it cares about your solution.
Channel the rage. Build something that proves everyone wrong. That's the founder edge.
