    Ep 3 – When the Wig Doesn’t Spark Joy: Dealing with Cosplay Fatigue | Made by Mandy

    In this episode, I’m yapping about something every cosplayer faces at some point — burnout. From late-night crunch sessions to losing motivation after a big con, I’m diving into what cosplay fatigue really feels like, why it happens, and how to bounce back when your creative spark fades. Whether you’re deep in a build or taking a much-needed break, this one’s all about finding balance, rediscovering joy, and remembering why we started cosplaying in the first place.

    Ep 1 – My Cosplay Journey | Made by Mandy

    In this first episode, I’m yapping all about how I got into cosplay—from my very first (very awkward) build to how it grew into one of the most important parts of my life. Cosplay has pushed me creatively, helped me find confidence I didn’t know I had, and shaped how I express myself today. I’m sharing the wins, the fails, and all the behind-the-scenes chaos that’s made this journey so special. Whether you cosplay too or just want a peek behind the wigs and foam, this is where it all began.
