Summary

If maybe this is the first you've heard, I made a shoe. It's called The Creator and it's available in limited quantities now.

The opportunity to collaborate with KSWISS was a dream come true. In this episode I talk with KSWISS President, Barney Waters, about the creative entrepreneur journey. I share a few insights including what it takes to build confidence, how we are curators and creators of our own lives, and the implications of small daily choices on the overall life we lead.

If you're hoping to snag a pair of shoes, go to KSWISS.com/chasejarvis before they're gone!

Enjoy!

0:42.9	And you're like, wow.
0:44.4	I mean, that is longer than I worked on the launch of Creative Live more than a decade ago or the best camera app or it's not quite something on that scale, but it's something that I have a ton
