Guess who is getting new office in UAE ?

I spent 3 years thinking a fancy office was the secret to great culture. Turns out, I couldn’t have been more wrong. After +2 years of trying, I realised culture isn’t about HR making rangoli, free food or location of your office. It’s about how people feel when they log off.

My Emirati client told me, "Log iftaari dekhte hain, roz nahi". It means people only see your success, not the struggle behind it. It just touched my heart.

My client from Dubai reached 10 minutes early and I was 10 minutes late for the meeting. Tells something about us.

Met my client over lunch at Atlantis, Dubai. Feels surreal to have business lunch at places I visited as a tourist 5 years back. 🧿🧿.

The moment you let your ego run the show, you start losing clients and even good people on your team. I’ve learned this the hard way :.- Sometimes, you just smile through an annoying client call. - Sometimes, you keep your cool when work is running late. - Sometimes, you.

Such a cool power bank station at Dubai metro station.

In Dubai for a week. Would love to meet entrepreneurs and creator. RT/DM. Let’s catch up over coffee.

Last year taught me a tough lesson. I didn’t just lose 3 team members and 2 clients, I lost them to people I once called “friends” in the industry. In this industry, trust is hard to find. Loyalty is even harder. I see it all the time, team members quietly job hunting, clients.

One of the biggest validations of our work is that 2 of our oldest clients (+3 years) are still working with us. They gave us the chance to learn, grow, and improve. We feel so fortunate to be able to work with industry leaders who trust our skills.

My brain’s never been great at switching off, esp after becoming a founder. it’s on 100x mode. Vacation? Checking Slack. Dinner with family? Thinking about the new hire. But the truth is: I wouldn’t trade it. This chaos, this constant buzz, somehow works for me.

2 girls with the same name "Kanishka" have joined my team today and I am going bonkers.

Started UGC content on Insta in May. Started reviewing products, got collabs from brands like Aqualogica, Foxtale, Dot & Key. It picked up. Followers grew. DMs came in. But now it feels off. I’m realising that a lot of time is going by, there’s no real money, and it’s mostly.

One of the biggest blessings is to be completely tired at the end of the day from doing the work you love.

@slashapp And yes I am a proud Slash partner because I genuinely believe in what they're building.

@slashapp They're processing $10B yearly for 3,000+ businesses. And they're offering up to 4.5% cash rewards through 2025 for early adopters. If you're tired of platform roulette with your revenue: P.S. Comment "SLASH" and I'll send you their AI tool that finds

@slashapp The game-changer: While PayPal commonly freezes money for months, Slash never holds funds longer than 48 hours. 24/7 human support instead of bot hell. Finally, a platform built FOR international entrepreneurs.

@slashapp How it works:.-Receive funds directly from Shopify, PayPal, Amazon.- Send payments via ACH or wire globally.- Funds held in custom stablecoin (USDSL).- Backed 1:1 by US Treasuries. Dubai business → USD in 10 minutes

Today I just saw @Slashapp launched their Global USD Account. They raised $60 million to solve this exact problem:.The first business banking platform that lets you operate in the US without a US LLC. This changes everything.

My Dubai client runs a $50K/month DTC brand selling to US customers. PayPal has been destroying him:.- Hidden fees everywhere.- Funds frozen without warning.- Zero customer support. Classic international business hell.

One of my international clients just lost $127K to a PayPal freeze. When I saw this new announcement, my jaw dropped - it solves this exact nightmare for business owners. Here’s how it works: 🧵
