Just as things were looking up for him, life threw a curveball - cancer.
Imagine pouring eight years into building startups - only to keep failing.
For David Park, the CEO of Jenni AI, his big break didn’t come without some peculiar challenges.
A self-described four-time college dropout, David's first business was selling T-shirts in high school.
One moment of glory?
Spotting a jock at the mall wearing his sweater.
But the excitement faded when his venture flopped, and he lost every dime.
His next moves?
A failed social media app, an ambitious dating app, and crushing rejection from investors who didn’t believe his ideas could scale.
While peers donned graduation caps, David faced grueling days at home, questioning his path as friends landed cushy tech jobs.
Just as his AI-driven writing assistant Jenni AI began gaining traction - 2 million users and a $2.5 million ARR - life threw another curveball: a cancer diagnosis!
The diagnosis felt like a cruel joke to him after eight years of failure and finally tasting success
Yet David persevered.
The breakthrough finally came when his product was featured in one of the most viral Twitter threads in startup history.

Niche or Nothing
Does this sound like you?
Being versatile and knowing A LOT OF THINGS is great, but if you’re applying this to your business or side hustle, could it be causing some challenges?
If so, it’s time to pay close attention.
Nora Curl’s advice for 2025 is simple yet game-changing: find that one niche that keeps you going and earns money.
Not ten things, not even two - just one.
It’s simple, right?
But it’s also a little scary.
Picking one thing feels like closing doors, like putting all your eggs in one basket.
But look at it this way: it’s not about shutting out possibilities - it’s about focusing your energy where it truly matters.
You should be saying...
Curl’s success wasn’t built on doing everything; it was built on doing the right thing day after day, until it clicked.
So, let me ask you this: What’s the one thing you could pour yourself into that would light you up every day and make the hustle feel less like a grind?
Because the real magic happens when you stop trying to do it all and start building your thing.
And let me tell you, when you find it, it feels so damn good.
