Creative Experimentalist
By Shreya Badonia
A self-help book is written for millions of people. Would it address your specific problem? Creative Experimentalist is a community of people who are empiricists and those who believe in using methods based on what is experienced or seen rather than on theory.
Life is a journey of self-discovery. You’ll have to find your way out of it. People can help you, support you, but they can’t take those steps for you
