I Lost $9 Million - What Nobody Tells You About Startups

Most startup stories are highlight reels. Here's the real story: we went from a $60 million valuation to selling for $10 million in about two years.

This isn't a sob story - it's reality check about what building a business actually looks like:

• How we went from 100 employees to a fire sale


• What I learned about business cycles and timing


• Why I still don't regret any of it
