Got Featured in the Slack App Directory

A month ago, our team burnt out.

The team of 3 became a team of 1 and I had lost all the momentum to keep going.

So I quit.

It was one of the hardest decisions I've had to make — coming to the conclusion that I didn't have what it took crushed me.

Luckily I had built a circle of friends that were founders and each one of them encouraged me to keep going. They showed me the ins and outs, ups and downs of their business and it got me excited again, so I got back to work.

I focused on providing a more solid experience in Slack and a month later, Clap is featured in the Slack App Directory!

All this to say — just keep going.
