Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, ambition inspired, and success achieved.

Been following you for quite a while on Twitter. In fact I have been learning and plan to learn more about Shopify and React because of you and the Taproom. I had just finished a UI/UX Design course to add to my front-end developer role. I was hoping to approach the Taproom someday to possibly work with them. So, the short comment is you have inspired me to reach for my goals. Please take all the time you need to heal your mind and soul. We will always be here to cheer you on and follow you.

Kelly, not everybody has the guts to start a company. And you have started two.

You have a strong character and I'm pretty sure you will bounce back stronger. Good luck

It's certainly a very tough gig. I've had many ups and downs and I couldn't agree more that the definition of entrepreneurship is not defined by a set number of hours, staff, size of the building you reside in, or how you go about it. You can't learn what you went through from a book. That's a lesson worth it's weight in gold. Glad you have found stable footing again. Peace be with you.
