Meina (meina)

Choose kindness, and you’re expected to be kind 24/7 - Slip once, and you’re a hypocrite. Choose villainy, and expectations are on the floor - Do one nice thing, and it’s a redemption arc. Reputation math is wild. I full port respect the ones who choose kindness anyway.

A lot of young women have been asking me for 1:1 advice lately. Here’s what I tell them: Get brutally clear on your goal. Do you want a fulfilling family life? Or a powerful, independent career? The perfect balance is rare—unless you’re not the one truly calling the shots. Don’t waste time on hollow socializing. When you’re young and beautiful, the invites will pour in—lux dinners, champagne rooftops. But does any of it build you? Grow you? Say no to anything that doesn’t move you forward. It’s distraction disguised as status. Do the work that compounds. Find the right problems to solve. Experiment, ship, iterate. Real growth is on a loop, not a pump. There are no shortcuts to becoming who you’re meant to be. And everything has a cost. You just have to choose what you’re willing to pay for.

Before starting Sprout, I asked many friends for their thoughts on the idea. I quickly realized—giving compliments is easy, but telling the truth is hard. My friends usually fell into two groups: 1. Those who supported me no matter what and helped me build the project. 2. Those who told me exactly what they thought—even if it might dampen my enthusiasm. I cherish both. I turned the first group into my co-founders, partners, angel investors, and comrades. And the second group into my advisors—seeking their honest feedback at every stage. People who are willing to push you and tell you the truth are worth cherishing forever.

Things I envy about men: 1. No monthly system crash. No pain that hijacks your body. No days lost to biology. 2. When they say "I’m a founder," no one asks, "So who's your female co-founder?" 3. From birth, they're always expected to take on more responsibility. Things I love about being a woman: 1. Self-reflection is my cheat code—I process, adapt, and evolve faster. 2. I can express every emotion—joy, vulnerability, ambition—turning feelings into deep trust and influence. 3. My wardrobe is an infinite character selection screen, not just T-shirts and jeans.
