4x Founder, $35M exits. Coaching 100+ subs. 25 year launching and building business in finance, real estate, hospitality and education. Learning vibe coding Here is my website: juansalasromer.com my newsletter buildtothrive.co
I make pots and write daily about the intersection of clay, factory work, and finding meaning in everyday practice. Based in rural Pennsylvania, I balance 12-hour shifts at a paper mill with running a small pottery and writing The Pottery Dailies on Substack.
I believe in community within ten miles, generosity-based pricing, and the idea that showing up consistently matters more than perfection. When I'm not at the wheel or the factory, I'm usually thinking about Homer, troubleshooting kilns, or figuring out how AI tools can help small makers like me.
Support here helps keep the lights on in the studio and the words flowing daily.
