In this episode of Minding Your Business, Aaron has a breakthrough moment—one that reframes how creators approach their work. From struggling with gear and storage space to discovering the power of showing up authentically, this episode is equal parts tech talk and mindset shift.

CJ and Aaron break down:

• How to build a sustainable video workflow (hardware, backups, and editing tips)
• The “Seed & Spark” approach to launching a creative project
• Why trying to find an audience will burn you out—and what to do instead
• Learning to walk, not sprint, toward your creative goals

This is a must-listen if you're a creative person trying to make your dream project real—without losing your mind.
