Morning Walk #61

Next chapter

Hi. I’m Stepa Mitaki. I’m a product person and an entrepreneur. From 2013 to 2021, I was in govtech field, helping cities use technology to better serve people. In 2021 I switched my focus to healthcare. Currently building Carial to improve primary care.

Morning Walk is a personal weekly newsletter where I share some musings on tech, digital healthcare, working on startups, productivity, and some nerdy stuff.

This issue was sent out to 249 subscribers (+3 from the previous week).

I’ve been trying to build writing practice for ages with varied success, but I never published something on a strict schedule. I have always been opposed to the idea of tying creative energy to a clock. Now I’m willing to try this, and I’m fighting my fear of publishing imperfect content.

This is me, writing for Morning Walk #1 in October 2021. An incredible year has passed, and I think I'm ready to move forward. I achieved what I set myself with a year ago, and it's time to take it to the next level. Today is the last issue of Morning Walk. I'm not abandoning my regular newsletter routine, but it will change dramatically.

Morning Walk has recently become a weird blend of topics that I was switching between vehemently from week to week. One Sunday, I'm talking about health tech innovations, the other about mobilization in Russia, and the other about iPad apps. Even I was confused, not to mention you, my readers. I decided to stick to one topic and keep my personal news separate.

The new, rebranded newsletter will begin in January and will focus on one topic only: early-stage startups. If you want to receive it, you don't have to do anything. Your subscription will remain.

I'll take a short break from publishing weekly for more than a year and will not post anything until New Year's. It's good timing for taking a break, I guess.

It's been a fantastic ride, and I'm forever thankful to all 249 of you who have subscribed to this newsletter since. Thank you! 🙏🏻

My Russian-speaking friends could subscribe to my telegram channel, which has been quite stale lately, but I probably will you this channel for my personal news.

What happens next:

1. There won't be any new newsletters here until January.

2. You will receive new rebranded newsletter (about early-stage startups) in January.

3. You don't have to do anything to subscribe to my new rebranded newsletter.

4. If you don't want to receive it – unsubscribe.

Thank you, and have wonderful holidays! 🎄 See you in 2023! 👋🏻
