Very very exciting! Please keep us posted on how this goes. Sounds like you’re learning very valuable skills here! Especially appreciated the bit on choosing who you work with, this is key.

Thanks Tristan, I will! I've learned that things always take longer than we think. So I'm cultivating my patience one again haha.

I've been learning a lot, which is going to help on this project but also other personal things I've working on! I'm excited about it 😃

It is key, I've learned that working with someone is like being in a relationship with them... so be as picky as you would be when you pick a partner (rather than a one-night stand 🤣).

Things are going great, Jeremie! I’m currently preparing to add two more vending machines to the business, and I’ve been diving into a few other ventures as well. It’s been a journey of learning and growth, and I’m enjoying every step of it. How’s everything going on your end?

That's awesome! Congrats!

Things are... going 🙃 It's moving which is good, even if I don't feel I'm making much progress, but I'm not taking enough time to zoom out to look at the big picture at the moment 🫣

I know exactly what you mean — that feeling of not making any progress. I’ve been there mentally, too.

But one thing I try to remind myself is this: growth is like a seed.

It takes root underground before anything ever breaks the surface.

Just because you can’t see the progress yet doesn’t mean it’s not happening.

Sometimes the most important growth is the part you can’t see.

That's a very good point, thank you for reminding me! I think it's just frustrating balancing the inner growth + the necessity of "outside" growth to make a living.

Absolutely, Jeremie — that balance can be tough. Inner growth feels slow and invisible sometimes, while the outside world expects constant visible results. But I truly believe the inner work is what sustains everything else. Keep watering your roots — the fruit will come in due time.
