I finished Praxis slightly over a month ago. Since then I have been thinking back on my 9 months in the program a lot. From the time I moved to Atlanta in September, here is a short and incomplete list of some significant numbers from my experience and the things I have learned / produced.
- 1 website created (ryanaferguson.com)
- 54 blog posts (including this one)
- 1200 followers gained on Medium
- 3 sites featuring my writing
- 34 Podcast episodes released (Without my lovely girlfriend handling a ton of the work these would not have been possible)
- 12 Interviews conducted (9 as host, 3 as a guest[here & here & here])
- 1 South African radio show appearance
- 3 Marketing/CRM platforms (Marketo, Salesforce, and Mailchimp)
- A whole bunch of marketing and content emails sent
- 7 States Visited (GA, SC, TX, FL, LA, NY, MN)
- 1 organ removed (appendix)
- 1 book written (coming soon)
Not included on this list, but most important to me, are the relationships that I made through my work experience at FEE and my education experience with Praxis. In both, I was able to make long-term friendships with inspiring and ambitious people who share my core values. This was the most important thing for me going into Praxis, and these friendships are the important takeaway for me as I look back on it.
