Helping amazing humans ship product is my jam. There is nothing that brings me more joy, fulfillment, and anticipation in life. It’s the feelings of finishing a project (or iteration), standing back and appreciating the work done, and enjoying the fruits of your labor.

The retrospectives are always the best, we usually fly though the ‘good’ and move quickly onto the ‘opportunities for improvement’ - these are also so much fun as we can quickly gather all feedback on how to build the product better for the next product iteration. Is it odd that I get butterflies of excitement on product delivery day?

2025 is All About Shipping Product to Help People

It’s my life purpose to help others. I’ve written about my rationale, my personal dispositions, and my calling as an agile coach many times in the past. My investment strategies of our VC fund are solely based on this rubric:

I’m super proud of our portfolio of investments as all of them are focused on products and services that help humans do MORE and BE MORE.

Two Startups Helping Adults and Students

I’ve written about these investments before, but I just have to remind all of you of the opportunities that exist that I want y’all a part of.

#FSBBC2 is GO on April 23 in Two Weeks!

FULL STACK: INTERACT - Molly and Taylor have delivered an exceptional product on January 22. Thousands have benefited from the first conference. In 2 weeks they deliver their second iteration. I asked them if I could give my readers 80% off. They said yes!


CRS is GO Every Week!

If you know of a student ages 12-25 who wants to get licensed to race competitively, the Collegiate Racing Series has been launched and they’ve already delivered the the first two parts of their racing program.

The next competition licensing day is in 2 months! It’s so exciting to be helping students get licensed to race! We hope to have 5-20 CRS Members come out!

CRS is more than just licensing students to race competitively in cars. Their mission to to help all interested students get into the [whole] of the motorsports world. From engineering, business, marketing, sales, tech, race control, operations, etc etc etc. CRS is the experiential education platform and program that I wish I had 20+ years ago.

Let any alumni of a school who loves racing know about driveCRS.com.

Tell the student you know who wants to get into racing about driveCRS.com.

It’s a passion for me to invest and participate in the building of products and services that help human flourishing. If you’re a business builder, entrepreneur, or employee who wants to grow their network and have amazing business networking experiences, FSBB.io is the place. If you’re a student or alumni who wants to go racing for cheap, driveCRS.com is the place.

So cool.

All the best,
ps
