Now for this week’s guest…
Jenny Kleinknecht worked in fashion, PR and marketing for multiple years before she partnered with two lifelong friends to launch Probably Nothing, where she is now the Director of Creative Strategy and Project Development. Probably Nothing is a leading media brand that aims to bridge the gap between early adopters of NFTs and the metaverse with the masses. They recently expanded and partnered with Warner Records to launch Probably A Label, a new type of record label aimed at redefining IP ownership in the music industry utilizing Web3 technology.
Jenny joins the Women in Web3 podcast to talk about being a perpetual student and not shying away from asking questions and learning about the ever-changing Web3 space. Her advice: Just jump in. It will prove to be a challenge, but doing things that cause discomfort is good for growth. Jenny and I chatted about applying this advice to her own podcast, the Decent Humans Podcast that interviews creatives and their paths of entrepreneurship.
