Brave Little Insights is a newsletter for builders who don’t just ship products — they shape the future, responsibly.

I started writing because I couldn’t find a space where product, AI, ethics, and impact met, without noise or hustle. I wanted a place where builders could breathe, reflect, and reconnect with purpose. This is it.


What to expect:

  • Essays every 1–2 weeks

  • Occasional “Bravely Dispatch” updates featuring real missions and people on building a marketplace platform where mission-driven people find and join meaningful tech projects that need their skills.

  • No spam. No growth hacks. Just real thinking, brave building, and honest questions.


If you work in tech — as a product manager, founder, designer, AI tinkerer, or creative technologist — and you care not only how things are built, but why they’re built… you’re in the right place.

This is a space for thoughtful people in fast-moving environments. For those who move quickly, but don’t want to leave meaning behind. For those who believe that clarity is a form of bravery, and that doing the right thing shouldn’t be the slow option.

I write about:

  • Product & AI strategy with purpose

  • Human-first leadership and inner work

  • Responsible data and ethical technology

  • Rapid prototyping with real impact

  • Collaboration that builds more than code

You’ll find essays, tools, and questions that stay with you. Sometimes sharp. Sometimes soft. Always honest.


About me

I'm Dominika Michalska — a Product & AI Strategist working with startups across GenAI.
I’m also the co-founder of Bravely, a platform that helps people build meaningful things together. (more info soon!)

I’ve led product teams, built AI-powered tools, mentored emerging PMs, and launched my initiatives — all while staying obsessed with one question:

What does it mean to build something that matters?

Brave Little Insights is where I explore that question — and invite you to do the same.

You can also find me on LinkedIn


About Bravely

Every few weeks, I’ll share a Bravely Dispatch — highlighting real people, real missions, and real projects from the Bravely platform.
Because building bravely isn’t just a mindset — it’s a community.

If you’re looking to create something that matters, not just ship faster, Bravely is where you’ll find your people.
