🛠️ "Design is just making pretty screens, right?"
 ...Wrong.
In this episode, Tyler White and Nick Groeneveld dive into the real (and messy) side of product design—from research and collaboration to freelancing and client communication. It's everything they don't teach you in design school.
We’re breaking down:
 ✅ How user research actually works (and why users shouldn’t design the product).
 ✅ Why rough sketches and early wireframes still matter—even in an AI world.
 ✅ Freelancing vs. in-house: the surprising trade-offs you need to know.
 ✅ How collaborating with developers (and knowing a little code) can boost your impact.
 ✅ Why side projects aren't a distraction—they're your creative playground.
 ✅ How mentorship, mistakes, and continuous learning can skyrocket your career.
If you've ever felt stuck between "designing" and "delivering real outcomes," or wondered how to stay relevant in a world moving at startup speed, this episode is packed with insights you can start using today.
