    #007 - When were you wrong?

    #007 - When were you wrong?

    Certainty is the natural state of our minds, but often it is false. This week on WAW, we talk about times we were wrong. Nathan shares a story about how Hardbound's storytelling format didn't go viral like he thought it would. Dan made political predictions that ended up false. Will was wrong not to launch a product he built.

    Enjoy the wrongness!

Ryankinda ,

Great First Episode 👍

Really solid debut! Looking forward to further discussions. It felt very relatable because it seems that I’m in a similar spot with my career and business. The guys sound like they know what they’re talking about, without coming off as preachy or pseudo-experts. It’s just them talking about their experiences and “what actually works”. 👌
