Listen to this conversation when you feel stagnant. We’re joined by Devonte Lemonte, an artist, creative entrepreneur, and founder of Aspirio, a platform that connects brands and music creators.

Devonte provides a refreshing look inside what it actually takes to get what you want and build something meaningful.

We discuss the challenges of building a business, creating selflessly, the need to question traditional narratives and the importance of having a process. He emphasizes the power of data structure, removing emotion from decision-making, creative constraints, and the value of collaboration.
