@doolaHQ Lowlight 🫤

• Our website crashed twice this weekend as we went through a migration to a new platform.

@doolaHQ Highlight 😄

• We hit our 900th Trustpilot review 🥹🥹🥹 1000th review is going to be WILD.

Personal Lowlight 🫤

• Tweaked my lower back by doing some heavy barbell rows (3x205lbs). Past me would have plowed through but rule #1 of health and fitness is don't get injured so easing back into things.

Personal Highlight 😄

• Found some time to really get in to flow state this weekend and go heads down on some work that had been on my plate for a while. Early mornings, late nights, and weekends are often the best time for quiet, uninterrupted time.
