Hey all, hope everyone is doing well. I wanted to give you all a few updates regarding this newsletter.
Updated name
I don’t think the newsletter had a name before, but it will now assume the name of my podcast, Technically Speaking, as I start to build out more content and learning modules associated with it. More on this below…
Moving to Substack
I want to engage with you all with a bit more longer-form content, and I’ve found that moving between Medium and MailChimp added a lot of friction to this. Given life and work and all of that fun stuff, I wanted to simplify to better engage with you, all with exclusive content directly to your inbox. With that said, I’ve moved everything over to Substack. It’s a platform that allows me to publish and distribute to my engaged readers with far less friction than I was currently doing before.
Cohort Learning
Technically Speaking has been a platform that has been in the making for years, and the podcast series was the first phase. I currently do weekly mentorship sessions with designers from all around the world, but it just doesn't scale given the amount of time and effort. In November, I’ll be taking a break from Amazing Design People List, and in 2021 I’ll be ramping up with mentorship cohort sessions. Feel free to sign up here if interested, and I’ll follow up with you once logistics are more solidified. It will be a multi-disciplinary approach to design, and I’m excited about the conversations and learnings I’ll be having with future design leaders.
That’s it for now. Stay safe, stay healthy, and vote.
