Doin' The Thing w/ Dillan Taylor

The Art of Juggling Multiple Projects (w/ Steph Smith) | 034

Dillan Taylor / Steph Smith

Dillan interviews Steph Smith (@stephsmithio)—a serial online creator.

She's the author of books & courses like Doing Content Right, Doing SEO Right, and Doing Time Right. She’s the host of the a16z podcast and the Shit You Don’t Learn in School podcast. She has a massive Twitter audience. And her latest project, "Internet Pipes," teaches all of us how to make sense of the chaotic mountain of online data.

We discuss: not having a niche, how to be one of one, how she accidentally grew a community of 1600+ people, how to use ChatGPT as a thought partner, doing free work when starting out, whether or not you should ask people to "subscribe," how to start and finish lots of projects without burning out, how to balance being productive with taking time off, how to take advantage of the most productive hours of your day, and much more.
