You’re not behind. You’re just halfway through something that matters.

This is the blog-style archive of Half-Built Is Hot — the series that called bullshit on perfection and got you, a creative, founder, and service pro back in motion.

If you missed it when it dropped, you can start reading now. These emails were made to be devoured.

But don’t just lurk — sign up to get the full experience in your inbox, plus new hot drops and behind-the-scenes moments that don’t make it to the blog.

These aren’t just emails. They’re mini-rallies, momentum reset buttons, and proof that the best work doesn’t start with perfect — it starts with done enough.
