From Zero to Zero-G: The Unfiltered Journey of Makenna Matthews

Let me get something straight. I do not believe I came with a silver spacesuit. My story is a messy galaxy of hustle, failures, and sparkly comebacks.

My story starts this way: 22 year old me, just graduated with an Astrophysics degree (I know, I’m a nerd🤓), working a soul-sucking 9-5 at a tech start up. Looking at spreadsheets and wanting to be looking at stars. Then one night, after a few too many cheap glasses of wine and a cosmic vision, I tweeted: "Space is not just for astronauts. Space is for dreamers. For disruptors. For people who will not be held down.”

And just like that-- viral. Chaos. A DM from a billionaire saying, “How do we make this reality?”

Fast forward three years: I am Makenna Matthews, Space Tourism Consultant (yes that's a job now), making sure the elite of Earth can travel to space. But behind the ✨ glam ✨? I have slept in airports. Cried myself to sleep after a bad investor meeting. Burned my first business plan—burned it—after a tantrum (don’t ask).

This is not a perfect entrepreneurship fairytale. This is raw. This is real. This is me—the girl who clawed her way from coffee runs to zero gravity board rooms.

🚀 Why follow me? Because I will show you the unfiltered hustle of the 'overnight success'—the tears, grunts, victories, and maybe even inspir you to launch your own fucking dream.

P.S. I still hate spreadsheets.

Welcome to my orbit.
