In this interview, Akshay and I go over a typical day in his life at Notion and what inspiration video games like Super Mario have for the product roadmap of Notion.

In this episode of unBlocked, the Notion Podcast, I sit down with Ivanha, the Head of Marketing at Jam.
Jam is an early stage startup developing a bug reporting tool for developers (which happens to integrate with Notion). In this fast-paced environment, setting up a functional Notion Workspace can be tricky - after all, you don't want to spend all your time tweaking a setup that could be already outdated next week.
Ivanha shares how she approaches this challenge at Jam and later even walks us through some parts of their super simple Notion Setup.
Which goes to show: Notion doesn't have to be complicated.
