What happens when you put yourself in a room full of creatives and actually commit to building something?

In this episode of Better Call Daddy, I’m joined by Priscilla Mensah and my dad, Wayne Friedman, to talk about what we learned from our Creative Entrepreneurship Bootcamp at Houston Community College.

We didn’t just talk about ideas — we talked about execution.

Sales. Contracts. Insurance. Separating personal and business finances. Sustainability. Mindset.

The stuff people don’t always glamorize.

Priscilla Mensah and I share what it feels like to test your ideas in real time — and why showing up (even when you’re unsure) is what really moves the needle.

We talk about: • Why creativity without sales doesn’t scale • The power of being in community with other builders • Learning from setbacks instead of hiding from them • Why every entrepreneur has to get comfortable with vulnerability

And of course, Dad weighs in with wisdom about surrounding yourself with creative people who push you forward.

If you’ve been sitting on an idea… this one’s for you.

Because you don’t need to be famous to be powerful.

You need to show up.
