Hey everyone—Nate here. I wanted to personally invite you to join me at KeepUpWithNate.com—my personal blog and digital home base where I share thoughts, stories, and behind-the-scenes insights that you won’t find anywhere else. If you’ve followed along with Boston Made for a while, you’ve seen the launches, the brands, and the finished products. KeepUpWithNate.com is where I talk about everything that happens before, during, and after those moments.
This Isn’t Just Another Blog
It’s a space where I unpack everything from building brands and navigating entrepreneurship to personal growth, lessons learned, and the occasional raw, real-life moments that don’t make it to social media. Whether I’m writing about starting Boston Made, diving into new projects, or reflecting on the grind of balancing life and business, I keep it honest, grounded, and completely me.
Social media is great for quick updates, but it squeezes everything into a caption and a few seconds of attention. Some things deserve more room than that. A blog gives me space to think out loud, to explain the why behind decisions, and to share the parts of the journey that don’t fit neatly into a highlight reel.
What You’ll Find There
Here’s a look at the kinds of things I write about on KeepUpWithNate.com.
Building brands
What it actually takes to turn an idea into something people recognize. The naming, the design choices, the second-guessing, and the moments when it finally clicks.
Navigating entrepreneurship
The business side of the journey: decisions, setbacks, wins, and the things I wish someone had told me earlier. If you’ve ever wondered what goes on behind the curtain of a growing business, this is where I pull it back.
Personal growth and lessons learned
Running a business changes you. I write about what I’m learning about discipline, patience, leadership, and staying grounded when things get loud.
Raw, real-life moments
Not everything is polished, and I don’t pretend it is. Sometimes a post is a reflection. Sometimes it’s motivation. And sometimes, honestly, it’s a vent session. That’s part of being real.
Balancing life and business
The grind doesn’t stop at five o’clock, and neither does life. I talk about how I try to keep both in balance, and what happens when I don’t.
Why I Created It
I created KeepUpWithNate.com as a way to connect more deeply—with the people who’ve been riding with me since day one, and with those just now discovering what I’m about. If you’ve ever wondered what goes on behind the curtain of a growing business, or you’re looking for motivation, insights, or even the occasional vent session, this is where you’ll find it.
I’ve always believed that the story behind a brand matters as much as the brand itself. People don’t just connect with products; they connect with the reasons behind them. KeepUpWithNate.com is my way of sharing those reasons openly.
It’s also for anyone working on something of their own. If you’re building a business, a side hustle, a creative project, or a better routine, I hope you’ll find something there that makes your own path feel a little less lonely.
There’s another reason, too. Writing keeps me honest with myself. When I sit down to put a week or a decision into words, I have to slow down and actually think about what happened, what worked, and what I’d do differently. Sharing that process publicly holds me accountable, and it gives you a front-row seat to the real version of the journey, not just the polished one. Some posts will be short and some will run long. All of them will be real.
How to Keep Up
So bookmark it. Share it. Comment, connect, and grow with me. Here are a few easy ways to stay in the loop.
- Bookmark the site. Save KeepUpWithNate.com in your browser or add it to your phone’s home screen so it’s one tap away.
- Check in regularly. Make it part of your weekly routine, whether that’s Sunday morning coffee or a lunch break.

- Join the conversation. Leave a comment, ask a question, or share your own experience. Some of the best ideas come from the people reading.
- Tell me what you want to read. If there’s a topic you want me to dig into, let me know.
What I Hope You Take From It
I’m not writing to look perfect. I’m writing to be useful and honest. My hope is that every post leaves you with at least one of these:
- A lesson you can apply to your own work or life.
- A little motivation on a day you need it.
- A clearer picture of what building something really looks like.
- The reminder that the struggle is part of the story, not a sign you’re doing it wrong.
If you’ve been with me since the beginning, thank you. You’re a big part of why any of this exists. If you’re new, welcome. I’m glad you found your way here.
