My story: Freelancer → Startup (SaaS).
Designing a startup from Seed stage to Series A is wild.

You validate.
And pivot.
You fail.
And pivot again.
It‘s messy.
Research.
Team dynamics.
Tomorrow?
Today!
Churn.
Traction.
Politics.
Burnout.
Series A unlocked.
Life lessons.

Next?

@TheFitnessSoul It is indeed, I can't complain ... especially in late summer and autumn, very laid back-vibes!

Enjoy your cappuccino ☕️

Get lost.
Get coffee.
Write.

More Saturdays like this, please!

@TheFitnessSoul That's a beautifully written poem, you should share more of your poetic soul!

[Ines | Awaken your muse ✌️ @MuseOfNow]

@TheFitnessSoul Thank you, dear! I'm really enjoying my weekend so far, strolling around downtown Vienna, book shopping, coffee, late summer vibes, exploring ideas.

My coffee order: A simple caffè latte, to keep me going through the afternoon (without jitters 😂).

@ohhiayden Deeply resonates! If you knock and it doesn't open, it's not your door.

@TheFitnessSoul Enjoy your weekend; sometimes the best thing to do is to unwind and recharge.

@Get_fitwith_me Thank you 🙌 I was aiming for 9k-10k per day and found this to be a doable target during last month's heat waves. But now that autumn is kicking in, I really want to incorporate some more active workouts. Your skipping video was really motivating. Keep going 💪

Daily walk is in ✔️
Being consistent now for over 60 days with 1 day off per week. Looking forward to adding some HIIT routines back into the mix.

@WarriorThesis Those moments are your opportunity to unlock the next level ... if you're willing to examine and embrace them.

@Get_fitwith_me Wow 500 skips in one song is amazing! Skipping is so much fun with great music ... a guarantee for „meh“ moods to be gone. I’ll be picking up my rope today, thanks for reminding me. I could use a mood-boost 😅
Keep going 🙌

[Ines | Awaken your muse ✌️ @MuseOfNow]

@Get_fitwith_me I absolutely agree!

[Ines | Awaken your muse ✌️ @MuseOfNow]

How comfortable are you talking about life being impermanent?

I’ll start.

I talk about it a lot.
It’s my reminder to cherish good times.
And my dangling carrot when things get ugly.
Life is cyclical and vibrating, ebbing and flowing.
This is neither good nor bad — it just is.

@niilobackman I'm super selective with people I surround myself with. So thankfully my friends not only motivate me, they are actually a source of energy replenishment.

[Ines | Awaken your muse ✌️ @MuseOfNow]

@Get_fitwith_me Cherish and treasure those people, they make all the difference 🙏

How to discern if your partner truly has your back:

Are they going silent, being sarcastic or making your situation about themselves?

- or -

Are they cheering for you?

As simple as that!

[Ines | Awaken your muse ✌️ @MuseOfNow]

@parkerworth Absolutely — sharpens your senses, forces you to be present!

[Ines | Awaken your muse ✌️ @MuseOfNow]

@mizbuganon Congrats, keep going!! 🙌

[Ines | Awaken your muse ✌️ @MuseOfNow]

Ever tried replacing "What if ...?" with "Imagine …" in your communication (self-talk included)?

It does wonders:

• Diminishes doubt and worries
• Emphasizes creative possibilities
• Encourages your mind to explore

Change your language, prime your mindset!

@jovana_ux aaaah I see ... poah, that's quite a drive 🫣 So Vienna is basically the perfect coffee-stop opportunity 😄
