After growing the startup for about 5 years, we got acquired by a large public healthcare staffing company.
Looking back, it was a long journey that felt like it went by in a blink of an eye. All the highs and lows (on the personal level and with the business), the unsung 14 hour days, the major and minor pivots...all worth it.
Are there any more details you can share? I would love to know more! How big did you get? How did you manage to get acquired? Are you free now, or are you staying on with the new company?
Congratulations!
