The kidslike us.
naïve on purpose
The room I wishI had.
i dropped out of business school with a full ride and never looked back. best decision i ever made. now i run an agency, kite professionally and travel constantly.
i started this pod because when i was mid-change i couldn't find anyone who actually got it. this is the room i wish i had.
Real conversations with peoplewho built their own path.
We talk to creatives, founders, thinkers and rule-breakers about how they actually did it. No gatekeeping. No pretending. Just honest stories from people figuring it out in real time.
Dropping out, starting over, taking risks, creating something from nothing. Just kids like us who went first.
