The Epiphany ✨

Have you ever had an epiphany that made you feel lighter? This last one that I talk about in this video and much more in depth in my last post [https://thequbeapp.substack.com/p/a-midnight-epiphany-changes-the-game] has made me feel that a weight has been lifted. For some reason I hadn’t felt like it was holding me back till that very moment. Family, I’m getting more and more excited about the possibilities of The Qube every single day. I haven’t been this excited about jumping back into app development in a long time.

A Midnight Epiphany Changes the Game

Family, this past week, I had a BIG realization—curation has been holding The Qube back from scaling. While our Qubric rating system ensured quality, it’s too time-intensive and costly to lead the process. So, here’s the shift: The Qube is now open to ALL Black & Brown podcasters—period. Curation becomes a premium feature under “Get Qube Approved”, offering:✅ A badge of excellence✅ Exclusive discovery placement✅ A feature in our newsletter✅ Discounts on audits + reviews Honoring our curated podcasters with a curation when we roll out the new system. This is a game-changer for our growth, and I want to hear from you—what do you think about this shift? Also, how do you capture your late-night epiphanies? 📝💡🚀 Get full access to The Qube at thequbeapp.substack.com/subscribe [https://thequbeapp.substack.com/subscribe?utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=CTA_4]

How I Deal With a "No"

Rejection is part of the founder journey, but how you handle it makes all the difference. In this episode of Founder Life: Where Dreams Meet Reality, I share my experience of receiving a tough "no" from Northwestern’s pitch competition—after weeks of preparation and anticipation. 💡 What you’ll hear in this episode: The moment I realized The Qube didn’t make the cut and how it felt Why I give myself 24 hours to sit with rejection before moving forward The next steps for The Qube, including a new app model and a refined business strategy Why I remain committed to this journey, despite the setbacks No’s are inevitable, but they don’t define the dream. Tune in as I navigate this moment, regroup, and get back to building. Let’s keep going, family! 💪🏾🎧 Get full access to The Qube at thequbeapp.substack.com/subscribe [https://thequbeapp.substack.com/subscribe?utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=CTA_4]
