It’s time to give all of this up…
S**E ♻️🚀
10 months ago, I committed to something I had no business committing to - building the world’s first recycled pickleball.
Last week, when 537 prototypes showed up at my door, instead of celebrating, it made this whole business real.
Because the second they landed, it wasn’t just balls in a box, it was 538 problems (maybe even more lol). Real logistics, real timelines, real pressure… all while finishing my final year of college.
I doubted myself hard.
Couldn’t sleep.
Burned out.
And for the first time, I actually thought about walking away from this incredible mission.
I thought multiple times over that maybe I’m not built for this.
But sometimes you don’t quit - you just pause long enough to catch up to the version of yourself this dream requires.
I leaned on my family & friends. Took a breath. And got back on my feet again.
Some would say I ‘BouncedBack’.
Behind closed doors, I’m working endlessly toward nationwide pickleball recycling and bringing manufacturing to the U.S. ♻️🇺🇸
And yes - I see all the emails & DMs, and I’ve done my absolute best to get back to all of you but if you want a recycling bin at your facility, comment “BIN ME” and I’ll send details so you’re first to hear as soon as we’re ready.
This is what building something from zero to one looks like.
Not polished. Not easy. But real.
Now that I’m back, BounceBack Pickle is going TO THE MOON ♻️🚀🌕
If you made it this far, have a fantastic week :)
