How did we get here?

I spent years building a life that tried to look impressive: writing scripts, chasing creative validation, stacking achievements to prove to myself that I was moving somewhere. Then, somewhere along the way, it stopped making sense. In this first episode of Existential Picnic, I talk about what happens when ambition burns out and the strange, painful, and low-key funny process of rebuilding purpose from scratch.
