Hi everyone! I'm looking forward to learning and growing in this community. My name is Dr. Sam Monson.
Background: I'm a clinical psychologist located in Golden, CO with my own complicated relationship with exercise.
What I'm working on: I started We Hate Exercise to bring people together to finally get and stay physically active. While only 30-50% of people out there are still exercising 12 weeks after they start, we bump this to 94% for our users!
How I can help: I am a qualitative researcher so am happy to talk about customer discovery and making sense of narrative data.
Why I was interested in joining Gildre: I thrive in community. As I continue on my startup journey, I want to have mutually supportive people who will call out my blind spots and fill in expertise I lack.
Where I could use support: I am seeking advisors and mentors to help me know "what comes next" in each stage of my journey. I am hoping to avoid common first time founder pitfalls and am excellent at executing once I know I'm headed in the right direction.
Fantastic mission! Welcome 🙂
