Exciting/sad/crazy/big news...
After nearly 8 years of starting, growing, selling & transitioning Flywheel, last Friday was my last day. Rick, Tony & I – with the help of hundreds of dedicated Flywheelers – built something pretty special over the years...
Just so damn proud of the work our ERGs are doing and of the Flywheelers that are leading these initiatives. Just incredible.
We’re honored to share with you a brand new site built by Rise, our ERG dedicated to minorities and POC. It houses resources to read, a list of Omaha-based orgs to support, and several simple ways you can help the BIPOC community now and in the future!

I ❤️ the Fly Fam sooooo dang much!!!
We’re hosting our first ever remote retreat this week & our beloved in-house band, DFIUFEE The Band, got together to perform a cover of “Lean on Me” by Bill Withers.
We can’t wait for the encore when we’re all together again. 💖

After the Acquisition: Flywheel in the New Year wptavern.com/after-the-acqui… via @wptavern
YESSSSSSSS
We can’t wait to make the move to the @millworkcommons district in 3 short months, but for now we’ll just be watching this video of stairs being installed in our new HQ on repeat. 🎉

Going through an acquisition is scary; I’m sure many of you know, but there’s so much fear and uncertainty. When @wpengine acquired @heyflywheel last year, I was asked so many questions: Will Flywheel still exist? Will they change the brand? Raise prices? Let people go? (cont.)

Thanks Dharmesh!!
Congrats to long-time friend @smartbear and both the @wpengine and @HeyFlywheel teams. This is a win for all involved. Cheers.
