“And in theater that happens too, where I might have choreography with a prop, but the props not set right. I'm still on stage and everyone's looking at me….

You have to kind of keep going and make the best of whatever situation you have."

@MikeMacCombie I saved all my power-ups till the end.

I also generally was very stealthy/calculated/careful so I usually didn't get hit much (but also meant I was slower going through levels 🤷‍♀️)

@andruyeung “What is an “aha” moment you’ve had recently?” — @MikeMacCombie

[Gail Wilson @gaildewilson]

Society is trending toward optimization & reducing discomfort.

Seems positive, but it's not all good.

We lose tolerance & confidence we *can* withstand hardship.

"Embracing friction" is required to grow & connect.

[Gail Wilson @gaildewilson]

@prannoy Glad to hear it spoke to you too, and it continues to be an absolute journey and time to grow.

And love that!! Not only learnings for yourself but also for others. Why I was excited to share this to connect with you and other founders who've gone through similar experiences.

[Gail Wilson @gaildewilson]

@farhaj Thanks you @farhaj, means so much 🙂 And glad to hear it spoke to you too, more people have probably felt this than the startup world lets on. And I'm excited for it too 🌈🚀💫

[Gail Wilson @gaildewilson]

@thattallguy @the_carlosdp Thank you @thattallguy means so much 🤗 And grateful for the journey, all the amazing people we've met along the way and taking all that growth to our next endeavors! 💪

@jordanplows Thanks for this, means so much. And I'm proud of us too 🙂

[Gail Wilson @gaildewilson]

It's with a heavy heart to share @the_carlosdp & I shut down our company.

People ask me "what's it like?"/“how are you doing?”.

I love using analogies/metaphors:
“Shutting down your company feels like a breakup.”

Here’s why 🧵

[Gail Wilson @gaildewilson]

@J__Cub So SO grateful you were part of our journey too from the very beginning ❤️

@michlimlim @the_carlosdp Thanks @michlimlim 🤗❤️
