GO FUND ME TO HELP FAVAMOLE AFTER THE FIRE: https://www.gofundme.com/f/from-fire-to-regeneration-support-favamole/cl/What if the best thing your co-founder ever did for your company was go on holiday?

In this Build in Public episode of Tomorrow's Bites, Andres Jara returns with a month that threw everything at him at once: two accelerator demo days, new funding, a Finnish retailer landing in his inbox, a house move, and a co-founder on the other side of the world. The result? An accidental masterclass in what it actually means to build something bigger than yourself.

Because here's what nobody tells you: the moment you have to do your co-founder's job, you stop taking it for granted.

Andres shares what this month really looked like: the overwhelm, the role swap, and the unexpected appreciation that came from it:

Why finishing second in a 30-company pitch competition can feel like winning

How LinkedIn visibility pulled a Finnish retailer straight to Favamole's door without a single cold email

What swapping roles with your co-founder teaches you that no meeting ever could

Why saying yes to everything is a superpower that slowly becomes a liability

The honest cost of moving house, closing funding, and running solo operations simultaneously

And why spring and the first real sprouts above the ground finally feel earned

This is a conversation about overwhelm, gratitude, and the quiet confidence that comes when you realize the company can move without you holding everything together.

If you're building with a co-founder, or wishing you had one, this episode will hit differently.
