During the worst days of the pandemic, when people were stuck at home and starving for some form of entertainment beyond streaming yet another TV series, many turned to DIY home improvement projects.

For any business owner looking to amplify their exposure, make connections to a larger audience, and create meaningful conversation, podcasts are a great avenue to do so. A relatively new idea for getting a company’s name out there, podcasts require someone’s attention for longer than a thirty-second commercial could ever do. Luckily, they’re usually cheaper than making a commercial, too.

Hi all, it was a roller coaster of a week in the world of fintech as I published two separate articles on startup layoffs and a nine-figure funding round in the span of a few hours. It was also a week filled with lots of activity on FinTwit, or “Financial Twitter,” as it’s more formally known – thanks to more than just a little back and forth involving Stripe and Plaid.

“Once you have a baby, you can’t travel.” I’ve heard this so many times, although only from people who haven’t done it. But I took my baby to nine countries before he was one year old. Then another ten countries by the time he was eight. So I can tell you from experience that it’s not only easy but great. We need to share this with new parents. Too many new families are cooped-up, stewing, frustrated, and bored in their home, when it’s actually the best time to get out.
