    Baltimore Creators Is Back: Introducing Builder Fridays

    Baltimore Creators is coming back. Version 2 starts with one thing: Builder Fridays — a monthly, builder-first working session in Baltimore. How it works • 10:00 AM – 3:00 PM: Co-working (focused building time — bring your laptop, your project, your problems)• 3:00 PM – 5:00 PM: Main session (formats rotate: demos, deep dives, experiments, and more)• Full day runs 10:00 AM – 5:00 PMThis is for people who are actually building — especially anyone who’s felt like typical startup networking doesn’t create real follow-through. It’s intentionally not transactional and not designed for prospecting.

    Why I Punted This Episode Last Week (And What I Learned From It)

    Last week I punted the podcast and newsletter. Not because I ran out of things to say, but because something more important showed up. This episode is about that decision—about when breaking your plan is actually the right strategic move. I spent five days learning Moltbot, a new AI tool that felt intimidating. But I knew if I didn't dive in, the distraction would be worse than the deviation. Three months ago, opening a terminal felt completely foreign. Now I'm provisioning AI agents. The building blocks stack. Each one makes the next one easier. What we cover: When to break your own commitmentsHow curiosity-driven learning compoundsWhy context switching kills progressThe 80/20 truth: solutions are singular, not myriadDefending capacity while serving multiple clientsHelping founders bridge the gap between strategic insights and tactical execution.

    Why I Disappeared — And What I Learned While I Was Away

    I didn’t disappear because I was lost.I disappeared because I could feel myself losing the signal. This is the first episode of Ground Control — a show about the space where internal clarity meets external execution. In this episode, I talk about: Losing trust in your internal compassThe tension between depth and buildingWhen thinking becomes avoidanceWhy building became a way back to self-trustThis isn’t advice.It’s an inventory. If you’ve ever felt productive but disconnected — this one’s for you.
