Anne-Laure Le Cunff — Tiny Experiments— The Bootstrapped Founder 379


Dear founder,

Anne-Laure Le Cunff (@neuranne) is a neuroscientist and author of the book Tiny Experiments, where she shines a scientific light on how we set goals, what experiments we should think about, and how we can deal with uncertainty in a high-stress world.

We chat about goals, reprogramming your own subconscious, and how learning in public can benefit anyone on any journey.

Enjoy!
