Built for first-time female founders

Especially if you've never built a tech company before and don't know where to start.

You don't know where to begin

Everyone says "just build something," but no one explains what to build, who to build it for, or how to know if it's worth building at all.

Too much advice, no clear direction

Podcasts, Twitter threads, courses, mentors. Everyone has an opinion, and most of it contradicts itself.

You're not technical and that feels like a blocker

You have ideas, but translating them into a real product feels overwhelming when you don't know how software gets built.

Every decision feels high-stakes

Should you validate first or build? Talk to customers or hire help? Without a framework, everything feels risky and urgent.

What if you had a clear path forward?

A 12-week system that gives you the framework, tools, and support to go from idea to paying customers.

Clear Framework

Step-by-step guidance so you always know what to work on next

Expert Support

Jenna Boyle, Mental Health Coach & Woman Tech Founder
This is what I have been looking for. This is it. This is exactly what I wanted.
Jenna BoyleMental Health Coach & Woman Tech FounderJanuary 2026 Cohort
OVERVIEW

How Jenna found her dream customer and product-market signal

Joined Theanna in November and found her dream customers by January

Jenna Boyle is a mental health coach turned tech founder. After years of working in the wellness industry, she knew she wanted to build something bigger — but didn't know where to start. Theanna gave her the framework and community to go from idea to real traction.

THE PROBLEM

Spinning her wheels without a clear direction

Jenna knew she wanted to help people with mental health through coaching, but she was stuck. She had tried multiple approaches — different niches, different offers — but nothing was clicking. She felt like she was spinning her wheels, unsure of who her ideal customer really was or what they'd actually pay for.

THE THEANNA PROCESS

Niching down and talking to real customers

Through Theanna's framework, Jenna learned how to define her ICP, write interview scripts, and conduct customer discovery calls that actually revealed insights. She stopped guessing and started listening. The process helped her narrow down from "anyone who needs mental health support" to a specific, underserved segment.

THE BREAKTHROUGH

Finding her dream client — and real willingness to pay

By interview #14, Jenna found her dream client — someone who matched her refined ICP perfectly and expressed genuine willingness to pay for her solution. This wasn't just validation; it was proof that her positioning was finally right. She had found product-market signal.

WHAT'S NEXT

Building her product with confidence

Jenna is now building her product with clarity she didn't have before. She knows exactly who her customer is, what they need, and what they'll pay. Theanna gave her the structure, the community, and the expert guidance to stop spinning and start building.

Meet Nomiki

Hi, I'm Nomiki. With 15+ years in product leadership, I've helped build and scale products at startups and Fortune 500 companies alike.

I built Theanna because I saw too many talented women founders spinning their wheels — not from lack of skill, but from lack of a clear framework and honest support system.

Women Build Cool Sh*t is the accelerator I wish I had: structured enough to create momentum, flexible enough for real life, and led by someone who's been in the trenches.

I just have to say I am LOVING this entire platform, process, everything. You my friend have built something amazing and I am learning so damn much! I may be moving slower than I would like but I am taking in EVERY SECOND and really really embracing this journey. Just wanted to say BRAVO!

Jen Schimbeno

I just want to tell you what you have created is insane and is blowing my mind. I literally have said out loud at least 10 times "this is insane" and in the best way possible. I hope you wake up really proud of yourself. You have created something amazing all while maintaining connection in such a beautiful and authentic way.

Kristi Candela

It's super helpful. Truly. I love the framework and the way it's walking through. The thing is I spend a lot of time in Claude/ChatGPT but this feels way more targeted and structured. Whereas the others let me meander and go off topic. (Which I don't need to meander) so it's a good thing lol
