Christina Petushenko
Product mentor for early-stage founders
I'm a founder myself, so I know how much clarity of mind and good decisions matter when you build. Ex-CPO and CEO, ICF-certified coach, biohacker and crazy mover.
Strength training is what keeps me performing as a builder. I started Functional Founders to find out, together with other founders, which tools really help us think clearly and decide well.
