A Personal Ask: Hit That Subscribe Button

Labor Day request …

I started Lessons of a Startup Life to share my experiences and insights about startups, and to capture the “real-world” journey—the shifting landscape of VC and PE, the rise of new ideas like vibe coding, and the leadership challenges emerging in AI. These are the lessons that make startup life endlessly fascinating.

But here’s the thing: it’s a lot easier for both of us if you subscribe. For me, it means I know who’s along for the ride, and for you, it means the lessons come straight to your inbox—no missing out, no remembering to check back.

I’m just getting started. There’s so much more to explore—new ideas shaping founders and startups, the quirky and profound ways technology reshapes our lives, and the practical lessons that come from building and watching others build.

So, if you’ve enjoyed what you’ve read so far, I have one small ask:
