#41: Reflections from 40 episodes and plans for 2025 | Ben Erez & Marc Baselga

Looking back and thinking ahead: Our podcast journey, game-changing productivity insights, and the trends we're watching in 2025.

Welcome to another episode of Supra Insider. This time, Marc and Ben take a moment to reflect on their journey after reaching 40 episodes. They share their evolution - from starting the podcast as a fun experiment to crafting the art of genuine conversation that defines their podcast format today.

The conversation flows naturally into their aspirations for the new year, exploring exciting trends like AI-powered prototyping and the changing landscape of IC career paths, while sharing practical wisdom on setting expectations and building momentum in both work and life.

This episode is packed with actionable insights for anyone looking to refine their workflows, explore new opportunities, or simply hear candid thoughts on how to sustain creative projects over the long haul.

All episodes of the podcast are also available on Spotify, Apple and YouTube (video).
