We all need a guide to help us make things and share them, but it can be hard to ask for help or even where to start.
Our goal with this episode is to talk through our individual experiences with creative guides in hopes that it helps you find the right guide at the right time.
And…incorporate Rick Rubin (as usual), Milli Vanilli (first time), Jon Acuff (also first time), and the movie Ratatouille.
