Crazy Monday, but filled to the brim with inspiring conversations with incredible people. Grateful to be in this space, and to hear and learn from those pouring their hearts into it.

1000 days of lost lives.
1000 days of displacement.
1000 days of full-scale war on Ukraine.

The relentless attacks continue, but so does our commitment to stand by the people of Ukraine.

Today is Entrepreneurs Day.

We're reflecting on the creativity and innovation refugees bring to their new homes, exemplified by Rami's family.

They are founders of Damascinos, a catering business sharing Syrian food in the DC area. Story by @andymucino.bsky.social.
