Episode notes

I think there's so much hidden gems, I suppose, in the process and in the mistakes that we often keep hidden because we're ashamed of it. We want to show off the final fancy thing because it makes us look cool or professional or really experienced. If you're designing a website, that website is eventually going to go live. So the world will eventually see it. But I just think it's a shame that we hold so much of the process back. Try the free beta for Mac or Windows today.

Femke encourages us to take pride in our process by being willing to show our crappy work. She shows us how every small step can lead to something big. She teaches us how we can achieve anything in life, if we’re willing to take action. She also challenges us to wake up early to get the stuff done that we “never have time for”.
