It's been BUSY! I launched on Product Hunt yesterday, made it to the front page, number 14 of the day. Not bad for the first launch. Thank you to ALLL the ladies in the community to upvoted, and shared 🥰!

I launched a no-code marketplace app for freelancers. Next, I am launching a Remote Life community with Shane Neubauer for the Woman Make 30 Day Just F*ing Ship IT challenge. More deets below. 

If you are building something this month, PLEASE share so the community can provide accountably support and promote your work! ❤️
