In this episode, we speak to Melissa Kwan, a leading voice in the bootstrapped founder community and the founder of eWebinar, a b2b SaaS that allows teams to automate 100s of onboarding and training webinars.We were super excited about getting Melissa on the pod and she did not disappoint. From the keys to successful bootstrapping to how to design your business around your life, we talked about so many things, including:

* Her upbringing in a traditional Chinese family and how it influenced her journey

* The fact that bootstrapping chose her when she struggled to raise VC funding

* The trials and tribulations she went through with her first company

* How she decided to exit one of her companies

* Why consistency and hustle are often underrated keys to success

* How she designs her life and makes it a priority in all her decisions

* How she uses LinkedIn and got to 30,000+ followers

* The non-negotiables she defined before founding eWebinar

* Running a company with her life-partner

And as always, we shared a “kudos” and a “facepalm” of the week, dove into a popular social post from our guest and asked some rapid-fire questions.

Whether you’re a founder or a professional, this episode was packed to the brim with learnings, inspiration and some laughs. Don’t miss it!
