I got rejected to @theresidency 😭 So I found a house, money and residents and made @nick_linck an offer he couldn’t refuse. I have now been running @_KairosHouse Residency for the past 4 months. Create your own path even when there is none… apply.

Community is the moat. That’s why @_KairosHouse we invested $3K+ into Ice baths and saunas. To help SF most cracked founders recover like pro athletes. Thanks @believeapp for being chill and help us host events like this.
