@designertom: Why aren’t we seeing a rise in design founders? I have some thoughts about this and it’s not about hustle culture or burnout. Watch the livestream every Thursday at 1PM PST on YT and X.

Designers also have opportunities outside of just building a digital product.

For me, personally, the design of the project comes out great. I still do a mock on canvas to get it as close to a 1:1 as possible. Now it’s just getting the logic and processes done right which takes more time. Sometimes frustratingly so

I stopped posting in Social Media, last year, but I’ve been working for the past 2 years building stuff, new tools, new pipelines, completely redefining what craft and skills means for me. It’s been a journey, but I am doing it because this is going to be the only moment I will be able to afford to do it, before launching something or going back to the supply chain of creativity.

desin skills alone in isolation don't have enough context or insight into the full product development and GTM pipeline, some never aspire to be there, and that's totally fine, but I agree there is a substantial lack of representation.

Logistics and Finance are not something most designers want to deal with
