Startup Uncut is my real-time documentary on not of success, but of becoming.
It’s the unfiltered journey of building a business from nothing, shared exactly as it happens, before the glory, in the middle of the chaos
Every win, every breakdown, every pivot, and every lesson is documented here as I fight to turn a rejected dream into a self-made reality.
About Me
I didn’t start Startup Uncut because I had the answers. I started it because I was willing to document the search for them.
After failing my A/L white coat dream, I entered entrepreneurship with zero guarantees and a hundred fears. I realized that while everyone talks about success, almost no one shows the messy middle the confusion, the self-doubt, the long nights, the rejections, and the constant questioning of “Am I doing this right?”
I aimed to become a doctor, but failing to secure the required CCS in A/Ls shattered that dream. That failure became the spark that pushed me to explore new paths.
I jumped into everything, crypto, stock trading, dropshipping, affiliate marketing, even a spice export startup. None took off, but each one taught me how to think, adapt, and build.
Digital Escapes became my first real venture, a digital marketing agency helping hotels and villas grow online. It taught me how strategy, content, and execution can transform a business.
Xtream Digital is my leap into a broader arena of a marketing and content powerhouse for startups and brands across industries. It’s built for businesses ready to scale beyond limits.
Success is glorified at the finish line, but the real story is written in the struggle. I once chased a medical career until I failed to hit the required results. That moment didn’t end my journey, it sparked a new one.
If your first dream broke, maybe it was just making space for your real one.
Let’s build, break, learn, and rise in uncut, together.
