Today’s special guest is Sagi Shrieber, coming at us from Tel Aviv, Israel, who bailed himself out of $50k worth of debt by taking massive action. Today he’s sharing his journey, why he hired a coach (even though he was deep in debt), and how he’s building an amazing community in the design and entrepreneurial spaces now. Sagi’s also breaking down some of his favorite design tools, as well as quick and easy tips so you can boost your design game and maximize conversions for your business.
Sagi is what’s known as a Full Stack Designer, a designer who also knows how to get great results for sales and conversions (he uses the metaphor of an MMA fighter). It’s that kind of mindset—Sagi calls it the Full Stack life—that got him through some of the tougher times. In the end, he managed to push through the discomfort and learn to trust his gut instinct, which is where the name for his Facebook community comes from—Mindful and Ruthless. There’s a lot that we can learn from Sagi’s story, and if you want to learn how to take your design strategy to the next level, you’re going to want to stick around. Put that device in your pocket and let’s get started!
If you want to learn how to communicate better with designers and developers, and create designs that stand out and create emotional connections, you won’t want to miss out! You can learn more about Sagi at SagiShrieber.com.

A lot of people have been asking me how I do my online courses. I don’t have a course on how to create an online course (yet) [UPDATE: Yes, I do! It’s called Heroic Online Courses!], but I can tell you that it makes it really simple when you have an all-in-one platform. I host all of my online courses on Teachable.
