🌎 Taking a mental health day

Hi folks — quick update.

There's no newsletter today, for a variety of reasons:

  1. I'm totally burnt out from the election

  2. We had an unexpected death in the family last week

  3. It's my 40th birthday today

I'm so thankful to each of you for being a part of this community and I'm excited for everything we have coming through the end of the year.

Three things you can do for my birthday:

  • Listen and subscribe to our most recent podcast episodes here

  • Watch and and subscribe to our new YouTube channel here. You can find past newsletters and new ones every week, plus we're in the process of backfilling 20+ back episodes of the pod that we have video for (can we double our subscribers today?)

  • Support our work and become a Member for just $5 a month

That's it. Everything has been a lot, and can be a lot, and everybody needs a break sometime. 

A huge shoutout to my wife, kids, siblings, and dear friends for taking care of me this week and weekend. I'm incredibly lucky.

Thanks for reading and thanks for giving a shit.

— Quinn
