Thanks to @rebeccarat for posthumously sharing the words of Mohamed Mahamoud Sheik, Mogadishu's first florist. Thanks to @wearenotsafe for working to continue his legacy of working to bring peace to Mogadishu.

#StartUp: Had an #UpperLimit moment the other day.
If you find yourself hitting the upper limit, I'd also highly recommend The War of Art, by @SPressfield.
Caught myself trying to write an email, dress my 2-year-old, and hold a conversation. The resulting typos were NSFTwitter. #Multitasking: #NotEvenOnce.

A wonderful @1871Chicago profile of an inspiring entrepreneur and true supporter of others. Has been a pleasure to get to know Ari at @Chykalophia. So agree with what she says: having a mentor is a must.
Designing your future as an #entrepreneur means knowing how to pivot and learning to say no when the fit just isn’t right. Ari Krzyzek shares how she began her path to co-creating @Chykalophia, a digital design company. Read more on the blog: bit.ly/2wW8LSr #Our1871
Was so grateful to share some of our journey to where we are today with Ari on the Creative Women's Co Podcast. This is a great podcast for authentic stories and conversations about the journey to success.

#Somalia: 'I get scared, but I'm staying': poignant words of murdered #Mogadishu florist by @SarahEvaM & @rebeccarat theguardian.com/global-devel… via @guardian
So grateful to get to share my story on the @creativewoco podcast. Entrepreneurship can feel lonely. This is a great podcast to hear the real and dirty stories behind great achievements.

Amazing morning with @creativewoco at @evolveher speaking to an awesome group of women on #aspirationalmentoring. #mentoring #femaleentrepreneur
Mohamed Mahamoud Sheikh was Mogadishu's first florist. A community supporter, he fought to bring #ValentinesDay back to Somalia, despite it being forbidden by terrorist factions. His #brave #sacrifice will not be forgotten. A true #hero.

Few if any had the courage to so openly offer hope and love where he did.

Shocked to learn an amazing entrepreneur, mentor, and friend, Mohamed Mahamoud Sheikh, lost his life in the city he was working to transform, Mogadishu. Those whose lives he touched are demonstrating against this heinous violence.

#Entrepreneur: great article from @Forbes on Violet Grey CEO @apriluchitel's transition from fashion to entrepreneurship. From department store to corner office, great success rarely involves shortcuts.
