    Finding Your Dream Partner in Business & Love in Your 20s with Lillie Sun

    Lillie returns to The Gen She Podcast with exciting updates from her startup and love life. The first time she joined us, Lillie found herself on two parallel quests: finding a co-founder for her startup and searching for a romantic partner. At the time, neither had fallen into place. Now, she’s back to share how she turned things around and the lessons she’s learned about how to build alignment in both business and love. Lillie dives deep into the critical role a strong online personal brand plays in attracting the right people, whether it’s a co-founder, a partner, or your next big opportunity. She explains why responding to every DM, sharing your journey authentically, and consistently showing up on social media are non-negotiables for success in today’s world. Networking, she emphasizes, isn’t just about attending events—it’s about leveraging your digital presence to make meaningful connections before you even walk into the room. We also explore her bold decision to embrace a "build in public" approach while growing her app, Ditto, and how openly documenting her wins and challenges helped her stand out in a crowded market. From navigating early failures with potential business partners to the serendipitous story of meeting her boyfriend at the gym, Lillie illustrates the power of showing up authentically and making connections that align with your values and goals. Lillie also opens up about the challenges and opportunities of navigating your 20s with intention: learning to focus on alignment over urgency, building financial confidence, and embracing both successes and setbacks as part of your growth. Her story is a testament to the importance of balancing personal and professional alignment to thrive—and why staying visible, online and offline, is essential to making it all happen. Whether you’re building a startup, seeking alignment in your relationships, or figuring out how to leverage social media to create the life you want, this episode offers actionable insights and real talk about taking risks, showing up authentically, and thriving in your 20s.
