Rave against the machine (opens the original)
Read excerpt
To start with, I’d like to explicitly dedicate this short time-bound essay to my partner, Esther and my daughter, Asta. Asta has really come into her own (in so many walks of life), falling in love with music and movement. Just a few nights ago she taught me a dance outside, standing atop a table on our balcony. We danced under the stars together. When it’s all said and done, these will be the moments I reflect back as really, truly mattering. Esther introduced me to raving (yes, I started very

Read excerpt
I recall the moment. I was a young, budding, rather naive yet somewhat optimistic 19 - 20 year old startup CEO. We’d raised venture funding and begun our aspirational journey (TL;DR of my motivation… I was an athlete. I had injuries. I couldn’t pursue my vision to turn pro. This hits you hard when you’re young and there’s no other direction you’ve ever envisaged. Identify crisis alert…).I sat in a room across from a number of significantly older adults. I was selling to them. Selling them a drea
