Loved this round up and the overall message! Such a real pain point for founder-led platforms to want to constantly "re-brand". It only starts to fit right and feel groundbreaking when it's a coming back to the true you.
I loved this so much Matt, esp your “evidence” of entrepreneurs and creatives who maybe didn’t necessarily set out to disprove what the “experts” say, but followed their own internal guidance.
Would you ever consider writing a piece of artists and putting to rest the “starving artist” theory? I find a lot of creatives (myself included) struggle with this and truly trusting their own internal guidance, but more importantly - their art.
Fantastic! Thank you!
Thank you for reading Marina!

Thank you so much Carrie! You know, I did an essay awhile back that may jump start your request but perhaps I’ll do a part 2
