A very interesting and thought provoking post Deborah. (Hope you're doing well btw! Long time..) I can't help but think that the best hustlers are those that hustle all the time and ask for money at every opportunity. They are known as such. Hopefully they also add a whole lot more to the conversation and if they do then their fundraising seems a little more cool to me. But that's just me. I really gotta think about what you've written here. Thanks for articulating such an under-considered perspective.
