The Pause Before the Next Chapter: Why Get Out Needs a Breath
Get Out is entering a new chapter - one built on honesty, clarity, and intention. After a year of growth, I’m stepping back from weekly output to reconnect with the community, refine what works, rethink what doesn’t, and build a stronger foundation for what’s next.
