This is our space to celebrate the wins — big or small. Whether you just shipped your first prototype, closed your first customer conversation, validated an idea with 3 people, or finally figured out how to use Claude to automate your outreach — that counts. No win is too small. The "small" wins are where the real momentum builds. What did you accomplish this week (or today, or this month)? What's one thing you're proud of, even if nobody else knows about it yet? What did you learn in the process? Drop a comment below with your win. Tag someone else who crushed it this week too — let's celebrate each other. 🚀 And if you didn't have a win this week? That's okay. Drop a comment anyway and tell us what you're working toward. Sometimes the win is just showing up.

Don't overthink it. Here's are some things to include in your intro: - Current Role: (e.g., Logistics Manager, Teacher, Sales Rep) - My Boring Superpower: (e.g., "I know everything about dental inventory compliance.") - What I Want to Build: (e.g., "A tool to automate patient intake forms.") - My Promise: I will ship my first Vibe Code by [Date].
