    Social Media, Pressure To Perform & Your Artistic Voice

    This week on Sidenotes we are having a curious conversation about creativity, social media and the pressure to perform. Specifically, we are looking at what happens to your artistic vision, voice and power when immersed in a social media platform that is built on performing the latest trend, lip dubs, dances and jokes.  Social media is not going anywhere and the decision to opt-out totally isn't viable for many people trying to create art, share it and build a community or business.

Just what I need!

As a multi-passionate creative I truly feel like this is the podcast I’ve been needing. I’ve struggled for years trying to balance my own strengths and weaknesses, and attempting to fit into some mould that isn’t right for my brain. I am SO excited for future episodes and can’t wait to dive deep into some self-reflection, to be inspired by others and hopefully build up my confidence as a solopreneur. Can’t wait!
