  • Next level value and care

    I’m a long-time hobbyist recently inspired to learn how to level up. Years ago, I watched and listened to everything on candle making. Nobody has come close to providing the value, education and creative insight as Sebastian. With every episode, I remain overwhelmed with gratitude that someone exuding such kindness and class chose to share their wealth of information backed by evidence of their honest success. This podcast/YT series is proof that gatekeeping doesn’t take you farther. Uplifting a... more

  • Finally!

    I have been a maker for more than 5 years and subscribe to various other marketing/makers podcasts. They are helpful. But this one blows them ALL out of the water for me. It’s like the difference between sitting in an audience of a 1000 people listening to someone teach vs having a 1-1 conversation with a mentor where they specifically meet and talk about your individual concerns. Thank you so much for sharing your journey and knowledge. I absolutely cannot wait to learn more!
