Life hit HARD this week.
In this episode of The Riley Black Project, John and Crystal finally sit down after a whirlwind couple of weeks involving a totaled car, injuries, family loss, traveling to Virginia for Jamboree, teaching content creation classes, and somehow still trying to keep business moving forward.
This episode gets real.
We talk about:
• Crystal’s car accident and recovery
• Navigating grief, stress, and entrepreneurship at the same time
• The emotional side of running a business during hard seasons
• Jamboree 2026 recap and teaching content creation workshops
• Why the laser community feels like family
• AP LazerCon prep and upcoming events
We also talk maker events, laser business growth, content strategy, teaching creators, and the behind-the-scenes reality nobody talks about online.
