Hola


Random stuff from my week. Click whatever looks fun. πŸ‘‡

2. 🎧 SendFox broke $200K ARR after 5 flat years

My new podcast episode: SendFox growing again, building two apps just for fun, and how much work is actually enough. Read or listen here


3. πŸ‘§ My daughter's favorite book

A witch gets beauty tips from forest animals before her big date. Funny, and sneaky-deep about staying yourself. Guapa on Amazon
