Nat Eliason: Blogging as a Business, Helsinki Bus Station Theory, & Seed Oil Sun Burns | MMP #205
Nat Eliason is one of the most interesting guests we've had on the show. He started his career as a blogger working for healthy food companies trying to optimize for SEO. He eventually started writing for himself and has since earned a reputation as one of the best writers and thinkers online. He's currently in the process of writing a book on the Crypto Industry during 2019-2020. His depth of knowledge on all sorts of topics from health, entrepreneurship, mindset, habit formation, and more, made this conversation incredibly fun and dynamic. We covered a little bit of everything and, as you'll come to appreciate during the episode, Nat brings a high level of critical thinking to each and every topic. He's an A+ guy and we hope you find this conversation as valuable as we did!
