Build the Next Chapter Before You’re Paid

Hey friends, Chase here This episode is short and direct — and it centers on an idea that quietly changes everything once you see it: You don’t get paid first for the work you want to do next. You build it first. Most people wait for permission. They wait for a client, an investor, or an opportunity to show up before they start creating. But in my experience, it works the other way around. The... read more ›

How To Use LoRAs in Weavy (vs ComfyUI)

I’m a huge fan of Weavy. It’s arguably the best generative AI canvas app for creative professionals who want the power of a node-based system without the headache of managing a raw ComfyUI installation. But there is a very powerful function in Weavy that is barely documented. I love the product and the company, but their official documentation doesn't explain a lot of the critical details. So, I’m going to do it here. We’re talking... read more ›

Higgsfield Angles 2.0 is here: My 100% Honest Review

Higgsfield AI just dropped a new app called Angles 2.0, which as you'd guess from the name allows you to create new angles from an existing image. Maybe you wish you’d stepped two feet to the left. Maybe you need a high-angle shot for a vertical social crop, but you only generated a wide eye-level frame... Angles 2.0 aims to solve that problem. I took it for a spin- here’s the breakdown of how it... read more ›

You Can’t Think Your Way Forward

Hey friends, Chase here This episode is short and direct — and it centers on an idea that runs counter to how most of us try to solve creative problems. When we feel stuck, uncertain, or restless, our instinct is usually to think harder. To analyze. To wait for clarity. But here’s the truth I’ve learned the hard way: you can’t think your way forward. Clarity doesn’t come from sitting on the couch running mental... read more ›

How to Edit an Image in Midjourney (inpainting): A Creative Pro’s Guide

Midjourney is arguably the most aesthetic tool in our kit right now, but let’s be honest: it can be a nightmare to control. It’s like working with a world-class painter who refuses to listen to your feedback. And specifically, editing in Midjourney has historically been unpredictable - but it IS possible, as long as you don't expect it to work miracles. Ideally you want to one-shot your Midjourney images with the right style and image... read more ›

You Are Your Habits

Hey friends, Chase here This episode is short and practical — and it centers on a simple idea that tends to hit a little deeper once you really sit with it: you are not your goals. You are not your intentions. You are what you do repeatedly. Around this time of year — or anytime you feel the urge for a reset — it’s easy to assume the problem is motivation. That you just need... read more ›

Important, Not Urgent

Hey friends, Chase here This episode is short and direct — and it centers on an idea that quietly changes everything once you really see it: most people aren’t stuck because they’re lazy or unmotivated. They’re stuck because they confuse urgency with importance. We’ve been trained to react. To answer what’s loud, immediate, and demanding. Emails. Notifications. Small fires that feel productive simply because they need attention right now. But being busy isn’t the same... read more ›

Rest Is a Skill

Hey friends, Chase here This episode is short and direct — and it centers on an idea that’s easy to overlook: rest isn’t something you earn after the work is done. It’s a skill you have to learn while you’re doing the work. Most of us don’t struggle because we lack motivation. We struggle because we don’t know how to manage our energy over time. We push past the point where the work is actually... read more ›

What Actually Makes a Great Friend

Hey friends, Chase here This episode is short and direct — and it’s built around a question I think most of us care about more than we admit: what actually makes a great friend? Friendship is often treated as something casual. Easy. Automatic. But as life gets fuller — work, family, responsibility, distraction — the quality of our friendships can quietly slip into something surface-level. Not because we don’t care, but because we stop being... read more ›

The Most Important Creative Tools Are Free

Hey friends, Chase here This episode is short and direct — and it’s built around a simple idea I’ve come to believe deeply: the most important creative tools are free. Most creators assume they’re stuck because they don’t have the right gear, the right resources, or the right opportunity. But after decades of making work, interviewing hundreds of top creators, and studying the lives of artists across disciplines, I’ve noticed a different pattern. What actually... read more ›
