Make It So: Futurism Is a Practice (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Make It So is my new eight-week seminar, and this episode is the full walkthrough — what it is, who it's for, and why I built it around practice instead of prediction.

Her first cohort brought in $1.2M , and the second crossed $6M , all at a price point of $297 . I'm not interested in the hype or the mechanics of her launch; I'm interested in the trust behind it. Why This Challenge Captured My Attention I explore why so man
