Here are some of the designs I shared as part of the #DareToShare24 challenge. It was great to post a design every day for 24 days straight. I'm committed to continue posting work this month. 💪

@waldobroodryk Looking forward to it!

@thepixelgeek That means it could only get better, right?

This month has been the longest year in my life.

@raymmar @Replit @pirroh So awesome, Raymmar! Felicidades!

Soooo…. I can finally share that I’ll be working with @Replit to help scale their global community. 🚀🚀 Few months back I sent a DM to @pirroh told him I was born for this moment and that he should give me a chance. And he did! 💪🏽 Honestly feels a little surreal. Excited to be working with the legendary @Franciscocrz and the rest of this amazing team The community around this product is electric and I can’t wait to help take it to the next level. P.s. Shoot your shoot and share your work... You never know who’s watching.

@theJoshLoh I would love to join 🙋‍♂️

I’ve been working on my business and building a brand for the last year and have found it really challenging when doing it alone. Thinking of starting a weekly meetup where business owners can encourage, support, and share best practices in our business. Anyone interested?

@GrabuiLibrary Thank you!

Honored to share that I’ve been nominated by Webflow for Global Leader of the Year! 🥺 I’m deeply grateful for the positive response from everyone I’ve been able to help through Webflow Colombia, which is about to celebrate its 2-year anniversary — and we’re just getting started.

@stefbrucedesign @webflow @greensock This is a nice and clean design. Love the interactions, Stephanie!

Bringing this page to life with the latest @webflow and @greensock interactions is a pretty incredible experience. Powerful and fun tool takes building web design to the next level without any code! Obsessed with this timeline feature too 😍🔥 #WebflowPartner #Ad

@thejoshloh I love this story, Josh! Putting in the reps always pays off in some way or another. Congrats, and keep doing amazing things!

Exactly one year ago, I got laid off from Webflow. Then last weekend, I hosted one of my heroes and shared the stage with Chris Do. It still feels surreal but this is what a year of faith, grit, and creative risk can lead to. When I got the news, I had just moved into a new house and my second child was born shortly after. The future was uncertain, I had no idea how I’d provide for them. But strangely…I wasn’t worried. Call it faith, naïveté, or blind optimism but I believed when one door closes, another opens. It wasn’t easy. I cut expenses, reprioritized, and bet on myself. One mindset carried me through: My identity and self-worth aren’t tied to what I do. I stayed true to who I was, put in the reps, and trusted things would work out. Soon after, Chris posted about a business/fishing trip. Funds were tight, but I used part of my severance and went. We were told it was his vacation, so don't ask for business advice. Instead, we talked about life. Family. Faith. Struggles. Dreams. It was refreshing. It was whole. It was human. One thing Chris recently said stuck with me: “Branding is about relationships.” That reframed how I see ROI. Too often, we evaluate everything through money and that can turn relationships into transactions. But maybe instead of trading relationships for money, we should trade money to build relationships. That trip gave me the courage to go all-in. I went independent and relaunched The Digital Third. Rebranded the design tournaments I ran with Relume and Webflow into The Arena, and resurrected The Design Gym. It wasn’t easy. Revenue was low. A few client projects kept things afloat. But through it all, my wife Charlene was the real MVP. She supported the vision even when it didn’t make sense on paper. There’s nothing more empowering than a partner who believes in you. This year, the fishing trip came up again…and I almost didn’t go. Last year’s financial ROI didn't pay off, but I said yes again, by faith. Then something wild happened: Chris asked me to host a fireside chat with him in Vancouver. I had 6 weeks to plan it. No sponsors or distribution. Just grit, a few friends, and the will to make it happen. This past weekend, it happened. We pulled it off. I shared the stage with someone I’ve admired for years. More importantly, I gave back to the local Vancouver creative community. 7 Lessons I learned in the past year: 1. Identity ≠ Job title. Don’t confuse what you do with who you are. 2. Make your own opportunities. If none exist, create one. 3. Trade money to build relationships. Not the other way around. 4. Be in the room. Even if you have to pay to get there. 5. Get in action, even if you don’t feel ready. You don’t need to be perfect. 6. Reps > perfection. Quantity eventually builds quality. 7. The right partner changes everything. If you’re in a tough season, laid off, rebuilding, or stuck, know this: It’s not the end. It might just be the beginning. Grateful for the journey. Let’s get it 💪

Designer multiplayer finally coming to @webflow!? Thank you!! 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏

@thepixelgeek Question regarding retainer payments @thepixelgeek. Does the client pay you before you start, or after you performed the work?

It splits. It staggers. It performs. And it’s rolling out to everyone, starting today. 👀 To kick things off, @WebIsBae's taking us through some incredible builds from @josephberry88, @addisongabe, and @bjorn_flow, three creators already pushing the boundaries with rich motion, responsive storytelling, and next-level interactivity.

@thepixelgeek All good Nelson! ❤️

Sorry friends. I need to skip flowwwalkers today. I promise to do it tomorrow. ❤️
