🥵 One of the craziest weeks of my life! [Excerpt]
This is an excerpt from the CLUB Missive sent on October 3, 2023
As you also read Alex’s journal and heard last week’s open Conversation, his boy MacKaye – don’t call him a dog – is very sick with cancer, and I’m trying to keep Alex’s focus somewhere else, more exciting, and more overwhelming, as I know we’ll have to talk about it, so, great news or great projects first!
Alex goes right away into the 5 points enumerated above and adds “Let’s do it! Let’s gather the entire team on a call and see how we can get this done! Coffee is on me!!!”
I then hear knocking on my door and go “Someone’s here, let me call you back”. And Alex says, “I’ll stay here waiting (knowing what was about to happen)!” I went to the door, all my friends and family were waiting for me with food and drinks, wanting to celebrate me coming back from Germany! How funny! Alex and I are so good at turning what was supposed to be a party into a meeting! I love it! Friendship and entrepreneurship at its best! So here I was, with a glass of gin tonic in hand, explaining to everyone what the idea was, what its challenges were, and wondering if we could make it happen as a team! After 45 minutes, well, the answer was yes!!!
