Raising money is catastrophically challenging for female founders

This is what we need to latch on to and scale.Today, there exists a widespread belief that women are less aggressive in the process of confirming a round, both as founders and VCs. As a female founder, I’ve been told male counterparts are capable of committing larger funds, faster — that women appear to be more risk-averse, often moving slower through the process and requesting less.So, what’s causing the pause among women? We must acknowledge the potential danger to female founders and investors in working from a survival mindset and provide them the coaching and guidance they need to step into funding discussions practiced, prepared and able to speak on behalf of a company with greater strength.Said simply, we need to trust in the ability and potential of women on both ends of the deal, with no strings attached.And so, my final question to founders and investors everywhere: Are you willing to join our fight?
