THE SITDOWN: FOR MY FOUNDERS
Advertisement
An evening exploring the highs, lows and everything in between of the entrepreneurial journey.
About this Event

We’re getting into the highs, the lows and everything in between, guided by questions that take us beyond business and into the real experience of building something.

The room will be filled with soon to be, early stage and seasoned founders, all in one space, sharing and listening. It’s a safe, no pressure environment where you can come as you are, no pretending. You’ll leave with conversations that stick, shift your thinking and remind you you’re not doing this alone.


TOPICS WE'LL EXPLORE:


THE HIGHS

-What’s a moment in your journey where you thought, yeah… this is actually working?

-What’s a win that meant more to you than the outside world would understand?

-When did you last feel genuinely proud of yourself as a founder, and why?


THE LOWS

-What’s been your lowest point as a founder, the moment you questioned everything?

- Have you ever wanted to quit for real, not just said it? What was happening at that time?

-What’s something that didn’t work out that hit you harder than you expected?

-When did you feel most alone in your journey?


THE INBETWEEN

-What does a normal day actually look like for you right now, not the ideal version?

-Where in your journey do you feel a bit stuck or uncertain at the moment?

- What are you currently figuring out that you don’t have the answers to yet?

WHAT IS THE SITDOWN?

Since 2017, The Sitdown has been curating conversations that go beyond surface level, creating space to properly unpack the stories behind the people you think you know.

What started as a bi monthly live Q and A has grown into a platform built on thoughtful questions, intentional dialogue and real human moments. It is not just about who is on stage, it is about how the conversation is shaped and what it allows people to say.

From voices like Mo Gilligan, Bianca Saunders, Grace Ladoja MBE, Shola Ama, Sheniece Charway, JME and Kelechi Okafor and many more, every Sitdown is designed to go deeper than the highlight reel.

At its core, The Sitdown is about creating a safe, engaging space where honest conversations can happen and where people can learn through the lived experiences of others.
