Joining us is friend and colleague Keir Whitaker. Keir works at Shopify as their Designer Advocate. Like us, he's also had a lot of side projects.

In this episode we discuss:

  1. What's a side project, why have one?
  2. The importance of projects. I have many, some worked, most didn't, and all were
    lessons learned
  3. Using Shopify to launch an MVP and validate a side
    project.
  4. How despite all the advances in technology, good business
    is still about personal relationships (and conferences are the fast
    track to those)
