001- The pressure to be original

Hey, it’s Lassly here! In my very first episode, I’m tackling the big, messy, and downright exhausting concept of originality. You know that voice in your head that whispers, “This has been done before!” every time you try to create something? Yep, I’ve been there too.In this short and punchy episode, I’ll share why chasing originality is like hunting for unicorns (spoiler: they don’t exist) and why being authentic is where the magic really happens. Oh, and stick around for a few laughs, like the time I accidentally glued my hands to a miniature streetlamp.

Here’s what to expect:

[0:00 - 0:05]: A warm welcome to kick things off.

[0:22 - 0:56]: Me spilling my creative struggles and setting up today’s theme.

[0:57 - 1:44]: Let’s unpack why society obsesses over originality and why it’s overrated.

[1:45 - 3:10]: The real deal: how being yourself is way better than trying to be one-of-a-kind.

[3:11 - 3:38]: A reminder to embrace imperfection and just create.

[3:39 - 4:38]: A personal story (yes, there’s glue involved) about dealing with self-doubt.

[4:39 - 5:14]: Some takeaways to help you let go of the pressure and have fun creating.

[5:15 - 5:27]: A quick wrap-up and a heartfelt thanks for tuning in!

I can’t wait to hear your thoughts—let’s figure out this creativity thing together!
