Was there ever a good time to start a business?

Jamhot and I both entered the creative industry during the financial crash of 2008. Do we now look back and make a distorted comparison to the insanity of today? Or do we recognise that there was never a good time to throw ourselves into this creative life?

We discuss:

  • Storytelling and surviving
  • Receiving reckless emails
  • Being open to change
  • Lunch clubs and the need for in-person community for optimal creativity
  • Not forming ideas from assumptions
  • Balancing rest and productivity
