The Late Starter's Advantage | Morgan Ranstrom on Why "Being Behind" is Actually Winning

In this second conversation with Morgan Ranstrom, we dive deeper into the power of creating in public, the discomfort of vulnerability, and the surprising compounding benefits of sharing ideas openly. From creativity and wealth management to music, poetry, and AI, this episode explores how learning out loud can change careers, relationships, and the way we engage with the world.

Special shoutout to my prior conversation with Chris Mayer and Anne-Laure Le Cunff (@neuranne) — we've got a great clip from their introduction to inspire this conversation!
