1/ Right after I got the layoff call, I told my partner the news.
He said, "Okay, you wanna move to Seattle?"
I thought he was joking.
He wasn't.

2/ I’d wanted to go full-time on Soapbox eventually, once I'd saved enough money and gotten more validation.
But the decision was made for me, so I decided to swim.

3/ It's scary and exciting and overwhelming all at once, but I know that Soapbox isn't going to fail.
I know this because there are so many people like me who want to make the world a better place, but not enough tools to help.

4/ Even on my worst days, I wake up in the morning happy that I don't work at my old job.
I feel a sense of purpose even during mundane tasks like accounting.
And I feel valued by my employer for the first time ever.
Because it's me.
