## Startup Mistakes No One Talks About

An honest meetup for founders, freelancers & aspiring entrepreneurs

Everyone talks about success stories.
Funding rounds. Viral launches. Overnight growth.

But no one talks enough about the mistakes that quietly kill startups — the ones that don’t make it to LinkedIn posts or podcasts.

This meetup is a no-fluff, no-gyaan, real-conversation space where we unpack the startup mistakes people usually learn too late.

### What this meetup is about

“Startup Mistakes No One Talks About” is a candid, experience-driven discussion designed for:

  • First-time founders
  • Freelancers thinking of building a startup
  • Students & professionals planning to start something of their own
  • Anyone stuck, confused, or overwhelmed in their startup journey

We’ll talk about the uncomfortable, underrated, and rarely discussed realities of starting up.

### Topics we’ll dive into

  • Starting without clarity and calling it “hustle”
  • Building products no one actually wants
  • Underestimating cash flow, burn, and personal finances
  • Choosing the wrong co-founders or doing it solo for the wrong reasons
  • Overworking, burnout, and ignoring mental health
  • Scaling too early (or never scaling at all)
  • Social media success vs real business growth

No theory. No fake motivation.
Just real lessons, real stories, and real takeaways.

### What makes this meetup different

  • Open, interactive discussions instead of lectures
  • Honest experiences over textbook advice
  • A safe space to ask questions you usually hesitate to ask
  • Networking with people who are at similar stages — not just “successful” founders

### Who should attend

  • “I want to start something but I’m confused”
  • “I’ve started but I feel stuck”
  • “I don’t want to repeat avoidable mistakes”
  • “I want clarity before I jump in”

If any of this sounds like you — this meetup is for you.

### Takeaways

You’ll walk away with:

  • Clearer decision-making frameworks
  • Awareness of mistakes to actively avoid
  • More confidence in your startup journey
  • Connections with people who get it

✨ Sometimes the smartest move is learning from mistakes you don’t have to make yourself.
Join us for an evening of honest conversations, shared learnings, and real connections.
