S1 E3: Chasing Unicorns
Chasing Unicorns... “Poetic stories of emotion” - K.E. Jones.
We were born too late to remember 8-tracks and too early to make playlists but we had mixtapes. We had College Club and AOL messenger accounts that we accessed through dial-up modems. Our first LOL happened over touch-tone phones rather than touchscreens. We had Blockbuster nights without Netflix and chilin. We were the last to see how it felt to make real-life connections yet we still find ourselves devoid of the ultimate connection. Never seeing love in real life, we fight to blindly define and create it. And though weary, we are still hopeful. This book is our all-too-common journey to love, happiness and wholeness. Hear the story behind the book by watching this weeks episode.

Don’t worry about sounding professional. Sound like you. There are over 1.5 billion websites out there, but your story is what’s going to separate this one from the rest. If you read the words back and don’t hear your own voice in your head, that’s a good sign you still have more work to do.
Be clear, be confident and don’t overthink it. The beauty of your story is that it’s going to continue to evolve and your site can evolve with it. Your goal should be to make it feel right for right now. Later will take care of itself. It always does.
