Haven't posted in a while, been head-down focused. But this weekend I've been feeling an overwhelming sense of gratitude, peace and also triumph ... as I sit and reflect on how a single month can be so significant and symbolic, in business and in life.
August in a snapshot - WOW!
Personal
-I became an uncle...again! To my amazing nephew and the 3rd child of my younger brother
-Made amazing new friends, joined two mastermind groups and networks of extraordinary business owners and planned a bunch of new trips (like 6!) for later this fall to events and adventures all over the world!
-Have never been in better health, alignment, happiness - and am fully focused on what I am building with the most amazing teams I've ever had the privilege to lead and work with, and contributing important things to the world, those around me, and myself
-Registered for an Ironman triathlon in Lake Placid next summer - because I wanted a new big and bold challenge, and why not??!
-Continued to commit to lifelong adventuring, and working remote whilst adventuring for long stretches - next up? Hawaii or Alaska, then back out west this winter!
Offsite tech startup
-Basically closed (successfully) our Seed round for our startup
Offsite with my Cofounder Jared, after beginning our raise at the exact time the fundraising market for technology startups came to a near standstill, and turned into one of the most challenging fundraising environments in a decade
-We pivoted from anxiety & austerity just a couple of months ago to bullish growth & optimism. We are currently hiring for multiple roles, and will double our headcount to approx 25 next year en route to our Series A fundraise
-We are launching our software product - THIS MONTH! - and we have a World Class team of true professionals powering this rocket ship, as we liftoff and fight to win the category for bringing people back together through transformational events and offsite retreats
