In this YouTube short, the speaker reflects on personal growth, emphasizing that they have become a different person compared to a few years ago and want this evolution to be evident. They express excitement about Substack, describing its culture as demanding authenticity, real value, and respect for genuine contributions.

that I'm coming from a place, uh, look, I've evolved. I'm a pretty different person than I was even a couple years ago. I want that to be on display. I know it will naturally. I just, I don't want to do it under the lens of how I operated in the industry I was in before. And again, this is what excites me about Substack. It feels like a culture that demands more, that wants more, that you better be real and you better have real value to give and that will be respected. And I think I'm overthinking what that looks like a little bit. It's not probably quite as deep as some might be, but mostly Phil, I just don't want to wake up and go, okay, you did it and you just got going and it got good to you and you fell into the old pattern of now you've got— why do you have 3 programs all of a sudden? And should you even have that one?
