My WordPress Journey

I intend to talk about my entire WordPress journey, from starting a famous video blog (From the Couch) with David, through to our experience building Obox Themes, pivoting to oue site builder Layers, moving into my career as a freelancer after selling Layers to Elementor (as well as the story behind that) and finally into my new life with a company of 10 people, 3 of whom work for Elementor building their plugin which powers almost 20m websites and 10% of the internet.

I think the story is inspiring as it shows people never to give up, and also just because you are where you are now, it doesn’t mean that’s where you’re going or where you’ve come from.
