Hi Marie! I am really enjoying reading your responses to some of these other questions!
There seems to be a seemingly never-ending narrative in our culture that emphasizes the importance of having "a thing"—being passionate about one specific career path, company, or even product/service. I'm torn about this narrative. As a multi-passionate person, there is a part of me that deeply enjoys...

Happy New Year, everyone!
When I first launched the Best Life Planner back in 2016, it was 200 pages long. I wanted it to be as comprehensive as possible. I wanted to make sure it was a bulletproof system for everyone, regardless of location, income, industry, job, lifestyle, or personal circumstances. I'm extraordinarily proud of that first edition. However, over the years, I realized people...

I know I'm late to the Notion party. Heeeeeelp.
I am obsessed with all things organization and productivity, and love trying products that help create useful structure in my digital world. As a long-time Evernote user (I use it literally every day and have a system that took me forever to build), I'm having a hard time getting over the switching costs hump.

Ummm...so I recently came back home from a weekend away. Before I left, I watered my palm plant for the first time since buying it thinking, "Oh wow, you're such a good plant parent, Melissa, it's going to be so happy!" ONLY TO COME BACK HOME TO ONE OF THE PALMS BEING BRIGHT YELLOW. (!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?).
Needless to say, I need this app because I have no idea what I'm doing. My house is...

Hi there!
It goes without saying—2020 has been one of the weirdest years ever.
I've talked to so many friends who feel like throwing in the towel and taking a nice, long nap until 2021. But we still have three more months left, and I wanted to create something to help people make the most of it.
So, I made The Best Life Planner 2020 - "WTF" Edition. It's a 50-page FREE PLANNING TOOL that...

A planning tool to end the weirdest year of your life well.
Yo 2020, WTF? It's been one heck of a year so far. Pretty much all of us had to throw at least some of our original plans in the trash. If you feel like you need a RESET to end the year on a high note, this FREE 50-page planner was created with you in mind.

This is a really interesting conceptualization of solving a major challenge (pairing the right talent with the right opportunities). A few questions:
1. When you think about onboarding flow, how do you balance making it as easy as possible to have users create a profile quickly with not creating a spammy site that has very limited info about users that isn't particularly useful to employers in...

Really love this concept, @javrodriguez_, and I think it'll help a lot of companies and prospective hires find talent and opportunities that are better aligned than perhaps ones they'd find on other job boards.
I don't have data to support this, just my observation and experience: It seems like for some of the best jobs below executive level don't even get listed. Or, even if there is a...

@vd_thatte LOVE THIS. I would absolutely use this to make it easier to find interesting podcasts. I envision a future where you can see what your friends and even influencers are listening to, which would certainly make it easier to identify the great, specific episodes. This seems like a product that requires network effects to kick in before it becomes part of people's habits. How do you...

@sheksushant What are your thoughts on specifically message automation (LinkedIn messages, email sequences)? It always feels a bit impersonal to me to send automated outreach messages. I pretty much always ignore the ones I get on LinkedIn or via email, and have taken the position that initial outreach is one of the activities that *shouldn't* be automated and scalable, but rather, personal and...
