Crushing it
Significado: Performing at an exceptionally high level or achieving great success.
Similar to 'killing it' but with a slightly more aggressive, dominant connotation. Popular in startup and entrepreneurial culture thanks to Gary Vaynerchuk's influence. Implies not just doing well but dominating — exceeding expectations decisively.
