Ship It Before It's Ready
The designers who are getting traction right now have one thing in common: they ship before it feels ready. Not because someone told them to. Because waiting for perfect wasn't working.
You have a project sitting somewhere. A portfolio you keep meaning to finish. A side project that's been "almost ready" for months. A flutter idea in your notes app. Hundreds of bookmarks you never revisit.
Join us for an honest conversation about how designers can build a muscle for action.
Alec Dilanchian (Founder @ Wind Down Studio, Prev Xbox & buildspace) left a big tech career and started shipping indie apps like oneyear.garden and Find Your Faith. Small products, built on his own terms.
Esther Sherry (Brand Strategist, Interaction Designer, Environmental Educator, Community Creator) blends design with mindfulness and community building, helping designers get out of their own way and back to the work.
Kai Tran (Founder of Design Garden, Multidisciplinary Product Designer) builds learning tools and runs a 4-week sprint for designers — and built Design Garden because she needed the same push herself.
