QUOTES

Taylor: "I think creating now is easier than it's ever been. If you have access to a phone, you have access to more or the same creative tools that some of the biggest creators on these platforms are using. Tiktok, especially."

Taylor: "You create content for you and your small group. The goal is not to go viral and have millions of followers. The goal is to create great content. As you create great content, you create a following."

Taylor: "If you are good at something and people enjoy it, you could monetize it. But a lot of people, especially in the podcasts content world, like I want to start a YouTube channel or a podcast or a tech talk to make money off of it. And you start with making money as the impetus for it, you lose the authenticity."

Rob: "It comes down to, as you go through this, whatever challenge you put in place or what your goals are, it's important to think about why you're doing it and what is the outcome, right.."

Taylor: "I feel like my superpower is, is being able to encourage others. Like something that I really take it to heart. It's like I've been building my network in New York for, for the last couple of years. And I believe that everybody has the one thing that they love that they're meant to do. And so a big piece of what I, I get a lot of joy from."

Taylor: "What I've been trying to do is instead of being a better decision maker, I want to be a better jumper where I, where I see an opportunity that feels like it's for me, I'm going to jump at it. And whether it turns out good or not, I know that it was, I was at least supposed to go that way."
