Insufferable.
"entrepreneur playing the long game" ok fuck right off Jessica, in my country we say "stories made up in the beer garden"
Mah, hailed by Forbes as a "wildly successful serial entrepreneur" who launched her first six-figure business in middle school, has built a business empire worth over $500 million. Despite these accomplishments, the 32-year-old describes herself as a “struggling entrepreneur.”
"Does my life sound like a fairy tale? When I hang out with aspiring entrepreneurs in college, they say they want my life. But my best friends who know me best almost always say they would HATE my life," Mah wrote candidly in her post.
She revealed working a minimum of 60 hours a week and grappling with what she calls "accomplishment dysmorphia." Mah also shared deeply personal struggles, including the pain of losing an ex-boyfriend to suicide and her ongoing battle with comparing herself to others.
gee I wonder if the boyfriend killed himself due to ending up with a relentless shark-eyed clout chaser with a soul so dark & empty a thousand universes in full bloom could never hope to fill it 🫢

Wow you live life. How thought provoking. Meanwhile I am enjoying cheap ramen watching chefs eat amazing Spanish cuisine and.....
Now I've read the second part. Go be in wild nature for a month without digital devices or spent 2 weeks somewhere far out.
I needed to get humble when I was a pre-adult. It changed me, I wanted it to change me. Happy I got the opportunity to do so.
People like this??? I am at loss of words. All the things she describes are not thrilling at all (for me). It seems like some people are a "person" instead of a "human". IDK how to explain it but it really is like that.
This post was a bit of a roller coaster, and I’m still trying to decide what I think about the full linkedin text.
what really matters
If they really matter, why don’t you make decisions that prioritize that stuff over your career and hollow social status?
Words vs actions. Tale as old as time.
But then for some reason I clicked on the LinkedIn link others shared. Most of the way down the post I saw these paragraphs that make me think there may be hope for her yet:
I’ve sold off so many things I didn’t need—including a sports car that, truthfully, just made it harder for people to connect with me. And harder for me to connect with myself.
I made a conscious decision: I want to live a life centered around the fundamentals. Real relationships. Honest work. Good food. Movement. Curiosity. Quiet. Integrity.
It’s a journey I’m still on, and I’m far from perfect. But I can feel the shift. And I think others can too.
I am way down this road myself. But I haven’t sold off any sports cars. In fact, I think I might acquire one. For good reasons of course, including connecting better with myself any my family. I like driving and my son likes windows-down joyrides. Might have to replace the Mazda3 with an MX-5!
The real life person from Pulp's Common People, still a banger.
Flying non-economy is just way too expensive. People that cannot be uncomfortable for a single flight so they'll pay double the price do not need that kind of money.
