In this week’s episode of Aspiring Creator, I break down what’s been going on behind the scenes this week - from delayed affiliate payments on Howl and the messy reality of tracking commissions, to getting set up with the Panasonic Lumix S1 II.

I also share how I’m approaching CES this year and my 2026 goals for the business 💪

If you're building a creator business and want the unpolished version of what's working (and what's not), this one's for you.
