What's up everyone? Welcome back to another episode of Founders Journal. I'm Alex Lieberman,

co-founder and executive chairman of Morning Brew. As I have mentioned with the new and

improved Founders Journal, I'm going to act as your startup Sherpa,

Morgan is a partner at Collaborative Fund where he writes a blog
