Can finally get to inbox zero with all the media I want to consume but never have time for + see all my inspo in one place.
Link hoarder that I am, I have tons of background tabs open about tech, design, decor and cool products I find. Organizing them all on a mind map in hopes of keeping track 🔎

Max is an unreal founder and human being. I love working with humans that take the path of turning absurd ideas (previously relegated to science fiction) and making them a reality - while also working on internally on themselves as humans. He is a rare example of this.
It’s official – I'm excited to announce Superpower's $30 million series A from Forerunner and Day One, alongside celebrities Steve Aoki, actress Vanessa Hudgens, NBA star Giannis Antetokounmpo, and existing investors Cyan Bannister, Shaan Puri, Balaji, Arielle Zuckerberg and many more. This funding accelerates our vision for what health can look like in the AI era. Proactive, preventative, performance enhancing. In the world's first health super app. Giving you the power of all your data and the world's health information, so you can control your health, for life.

An underrated question to ask yourself: "How have I been complicit in creating the conditions I say I don’t want?"

Most people: 👉 Overthink first, act later. Almost every successful entrepreneur I know: 👉 Act first, figure it out later.

Impossible -> Real. Yesterday @itsjustvow became the 3rd company in the world to sell Cultured Meat anywhere in the world achieved in around half the time + less than 10% of the capital raised of the other two. More excited by what we haven't shared publicly (yet).
Most high-end diners want something no one has ever tried before, driving a pursuit that has pushed food to new frontiers. What if we went further and cultured cells to create a new animal, made only to be delicious? Introducing Quailia. Taste it today at hubs.ly/Q02rKM_L0

Some news: I'm now a partner at @SquarePegCap. Feels amazing to have the endorsement of this great team. Taking a moment to enjoy the milestone and remember my first Square Peg investment in @itsjustvow (cue goofy pic)

New year, same meeting bashing. You can cancel them all you want. But they will come back if you don't see and squash one of the top meeting culprits... this one is a bad one: Time horizon friction. 👇🏻

Had a blast pulling this together - absolutely love this team.
“You have no right to be operating out of a vessel that large in such a short amount of time.” 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯 This is a real quote from a world leader in biomanufacturing when touring Vow’s facility earlier this year. We share a knowing smile.. (we’ve heard this before) (1/9)
An incredibly exciting moment for everyone at Vow. So proud of the team ❤️💪
We have some ✨📢BIG NEWS📢✨ to share, we have officially opened our very first factory (creatively named Factory 1) at our Sydney, Australia HQ. A few key facts on Factory 1 🧵👇🏾 (1/3)

Before you ask, "What should I do today?" Ask yourself, "What should I remove today?" Create the space you need to succeed. Loved this from @JamesClear
