My episode with Notion's cofounder Akshay is releasing now :)

Decided to make it audio tho cause video was a bit jittery cause this was recorded long ago before I made things better and I can't have bad quality on my second season.

Hope you learn so much, I personally did. 💚

Akshay is a prominent entrepreneur and the co-founder of Notion, a highly regarded productivity software platform. He has played a significant role in shaping Notion into one of the fastest-growing companies in the tech industry

Before co-founding Notion, he graduated from Stanford University, where he was involved in developing the Pulse app during his final year. Later he served as the Vice President of Product at LinkedIn for over five years. His journey at LinkedIn began after his previous company, Pulse, was acquired by LinkedIn in 2013. This is my conversation with him.

Enjoy! 💚

😅 wholesome fans

I've seen most podcasts separate their main channel with their clips channel they can spam with content and behind the scenes things.

So if you'd like short and precise clips from all my conversations, even from those that are not released yet. Consider subscribing to my clips channel, it's where I casually spam.

I give my YouTube team full creative freedom while editing our content and this was one of the shorts they came up with 😅

Would've used it if it's wasn't wayy different than our usual vibe. But still great work.

Next to the ability to just DM my guests about anything, I think one of my fav parts of my podcast is seeing my guest become really lovely supporters. You'd be amazed how nice the guests I've had on my show are. From the Local to the Foreign ones.

IThank you for your constant support everyone. I'm very glad and honoured.

ALL CREDITS TO GOD.
I HOPE IT HONORS HIM!

My ideal goal is to have my own company that is much more experimental than me and ideally would work with my partner/wife and even showcase that on YouTube and socials.

"በጣም ነው እንዴ ክርስቲያን የሆንከው?" 😅

I need all of you to focus and read the following long post. It's important that you do...

Here me out:

Specially if you admire me, look up to me or consider me a role model. First take me off the pedestal and put me on the same ground as you. Dagmawi Babi isn't all that special. He's as flawed and often times so much more flawed than you so don't consider him the most Christian or the best coder.

Now that we're on the same ground, I need you to know that you can be so much better than me. My curiosity, creativity and more are just a scratch of what's to be and achieve. It would be so not right if your aim is to be like me and not any more.

God has been my strength and wisdom in everything you've admired from me. Now He isn't doing this so I could be better than every one and just keep on raising me up. NO, He's doing that to show you that even Christians in the tech world can be something admirable and can achieve good things.

And the reason He'd do that is cause there are some of you in here that He wants to show and motivate and push you to keep leaning on Him more and trust Him for the journey.

It's like what Paul said "I was shown mercy so that in me, the worst of sinners, Christ Jesus might display his immense patience as an example for those who would believe in him and receive eternal life." (1 Tim 1:15-16)

Now Paul is calling the mercy shown to him an example, that implies that there are people who've behaved much worse that Paul that God is still going to forgive. And it's like that here. There are people in different journey that God will bless in their tech and content creation journey but he's using me as a small example. And this is for Christians and non-christians.

So know that you're called to be and do more, to achieve and reach more than my reach. To influence and have an effect so much more than me. To be wiser, smarter, more talented, more passionate, more experimental and more loving than me.

I recommend being with God, the architect of my journey, and see how life goes. And then to just look at me as an ordinary person that God chose for some reason to show His goodness.

You = can be more!
