53. Survive Beyond '25 - Business with Rick Mischel

Survive til 25 is a term thrown about a lot lately, but it got me thinking that it's August, and perhaps we need to think more about longer-term survival. So this is the first in a series of Survive Beyond '25 episodes looking at various parts of that equation, from business to innovation to mental health and creativity.

In this episode, Rick Mischel returns to chat about the general state of the industry and where we're headed. Rick recently bought a studio, so he has some optimism there! It's a fascinating conversation and I encourage you to engage in the ongoing conversation with us - we'd love to hear your thoughts and feedback.

Also, head back to episode 30 for a longer chat about Rick's career.

Enjoy!
