Make Now. Think Later.

By: Ben & Francis
  • Summary

  • Ben and Francis talk about their journeys of trying to share valuable content online (and then eventually trying to make a living off it). We're both chronic overthinkers, and our solution to getting stuff out there is to make now and think later! Join us as we try to navigate the struggles and share our experiences trying to make this whole thing work.
