Let's talk about messy entrepreneurship, late-night email drafts, and the weird little brain gymnastics required to keep going when your context keeps breaking.

✨ How this episode is meta✨
I recorded and edited in one sitting. I'd built myself a blanket fort to sit in because I read this would dampen outside noise. It did way too good a job and some of my consonants are just... missing. Wooed away by the lure of blankets and the magic of sitting in a fort in the living room.
But I did NOT rerecord. I listened to it. You guys I'm talking way too fast. And the audio is choppy. but GUESS WHAT I ONLY TOOK A SMALL WINDOW TO DO IT and f✨k perfectionism. I am determined to walk my talk y'all. Enjoy the episode.
