  • Content creation isn’t the issue - making money from it is

    I love the topic and I love the interviews Christian has. As an artist/entrepreneur I know first-hand how difficult it is to monetize on content. We can create content all day long (and all night if you’ll let us), but monetizing, putting a smart business framework behind it and running it such that we can continue to focus on creating is an entirely different ball game. I appreciate listening to other creatives and how they tackle the “gap” from creator to successful entrepreneur.

  • EXCELLENT. Just...EXCELLENT

    You can always tell when someone is a pro. Christian is a pro. We had a wonderful and very natural conversation about being a creative, profitability, looking long-term, the effects of AI, authoring, voiceovers, origin stories, philosophy, and more. I REALLY appreciated it. Thank you so much for having me on your show and for the wonderful convo!
