Oh my gosh!!!! You got the hack in your 20s, which is totally mind-blowing. I only recently got the hack myself and finally unlocked this skill. I was completely inspired by your articles about finding luck.

Dadada~~~

Thank you so much Xian!!

You’ve inspired me sooooo much through sooooo many of your articles!!!

I'm so glad to hear it! If there are any topics in particular you want me to cover, let me know

I particularly resonated with this article after running my newsletter for more than a month.

I have to say, this is exactly the same feeling I’ve had. You help people distribute their products, and at the same time, it gives yourself leverage too. I cannot even say how good this hack is!

I’ll let you know if I come up with some topics. Thank you soooo much all the articles!

Great piece! Adding value upfront for people is a great way to build trust and that trust over time blossoms into relationships. I agree with you on the point about passion. People can tell when you’re working on something you’re passionate about and that energy transcends more easily!

Phoebe Dodds's avatar

Yes totally agree haha there's nothing worse than someone asking you to be part of something you can tell they don't even care about...

Read to the end - this is incredible! I started seriously photographing last year and finding other photographers ended up being way more helpful than any article or YouTube video

Thank you so much Clara! I can totally imagine - that's usually how it goes haha

I'm Amsterdam now. It is definitely a laid back country. Takes weeks to get someone to respond.

This is great!!! Reminds me of an interview series I started in 2019 that I abandoned and have toyed with returning. ❤️ Great motivation to create cool things. 😎

Phoebe Dodds's avatar

Do it!! Rooting for you Laura!

Why not? Is my thought… I've been sitting on restartingit for a vouple of years. I'd rather do that than make vids for TikTok and it leans into something I love personal connection to people. ❤️

Love that - and so weird to say that i clicked onto your article because James Turrell's also my fav artist!

Phoebe Dodds's avatar

haha oh I'm so glad! I always try and find interesting cover pics for my articles and was feeling particularly inspired by Turrell this week. Hoping to come across one of his IRL shows soon!
