🚨 HOLD UP, CONTRA PEOPLE — I need your wisdom. As a video editor & motion graphics designer, is an Expert Badge worth going for? If yes… which one would you recommend? Honestly, I have no clear idea where to start, so I’d really appreciate your advice 🙏

With the #RateMySetup challenge going on, what better time to ask: what’s your ideal setup? Fully free (home, cafés, libraries) or a dedicated office space? I keep going back and forth between the two — both have their pros 😅. Curious what works best for you!

Weekly Recap #1 🚀— Didn’t expect this much traction so early on, but here we are.

Big thanks to Ana for the trust — excited to kick things off and see where this collaboration goes.

One step at a time.
