Blowtorch the Candle

An out of office email.

Being Polish, we open our presents one day before everyone else, so I went into the office before I checked out today to enjoy this well-deserved holiday.

Unfortunately, every coffee shop was closed, so my batch brew or pour over order became an Iced Mocha from McDonald’s - I genuinely can’t complain.

I sat in front of my screens at my desk and opened up the daily stoic.

I blowtorched the candle Bistecca style this year.

We’ve achieved a lot because of it - our own successful finance arm being the biggest achievement. But, at what cost?

To be able to build this business into what it needs to be, it’s time to stop acting like a 20-year-old. Luckily I turned 30 last month.

We’ve found our niche, flow and, most importantly, team.
We’re grateful for our clients, and can’t wait to build with you in 23’.

Sitting at the gate with 6 minutes to board a flight, I just wanted to thank you.

Thank you for giving me the motivation that continuously refilled my candle this year.

Please ensure you re-read Seneca’s words. I know I will.

Arkadiusz.
