You’ve built something. Now comes the scary part — letting other people in.

Feedback is how your idea evolves beyond your own head. It’s where you find out what’s landing, what’s confusing, and what might be more powerful than you realized.

This isn’t about chasing approval. It’s about listening. Watching. Staying curious. You don’t need to take every suggestion — but you do need to be open to seeing your idea through someone else’s eyes.

Share your prototype with a few people who represent your audience. Ask what they felt, what they got, what they wanted more of. Don’t defend. Don’t explain. Just absorb.

Sometimes feedback will confirm your direction. Sometimes it will challenge you. Sometimes it will blow the whole thing open in the best way.

This stage is humbling — and that’s the point. Because what you’re building isn’t just for you anymore.
