Creatives
🎨 The Artist’s Way Gone Digital
The Artist’s Way is Julia Cameron’s 12-week program built to help people reconnect with their creativity. It guides you through a series of exercises that encourage consistency and creative growth.
Instagram creator @empowa has turned the entire process into a Notion template, giving you a digital hub to keep everything organized. Instead of juggling journals, you can track your progress and stay on top of the program in one place.

Investors
🎥 How Do VCs Get Paid?
TikTok creator Kate McAndrew explains how VCs invest in their own funds, earn salaries from management fees, and profit through carried interest.
@kate_mcandrew Replying to @Alex stop spreading misinformation when you don’t know the facts. #entrepreneur #techtok #vc #startup #katemcandrew
Takeaway: Management fees provide short-term salaries, while carried interest is the main source of long-term wealth, though it can take years to realize and depends on portfolio performance.
