My first post on IH!

Hi everyone, I'm a long time lurker and I love this community. I was working a 925 up until a few weeks ago and while I was always motivated by all the great posts and tips that I read here, I never had anything of my own to work on.

Well, that changed.

About a month ago, my friend asked me to help him launch his ecommerce website (www.growhouse.supply). I came in to his office and we started talking, and I slowly began to get more and more excited about his idea until I told him, listen, I'm not just gonna build a website, I want in on this whole project.

So I gave 2 weeks notice, and now we're partners.

It's been an amazing couple of weeks working on something that I own. The feeling is just so much better than getting paid. Even though I took a paycut for now, I think it will pay off many times over in many ways.

So anyways, that's my rant. I will try to share some of my struggles and successes here and I know that this is the best place for it because I've seen how supportive and helpful this community can be!

I would love to hear about other people's experience in the first few weeks, was it exhilarating, nerve-wracking, both?

Looking forward to journeying with y'all!

PS I know a thing or two about web dev and shopify management if anyone ever needs help..
